The October to Come After September October brought us Halloween, painted pumpkins, new Magic sets, and leaking bathroom pipes. It was an amusing month, although not an Earth shaking month.
Here you see our new Magic set ritual. We get the new cars in, and Erin cracks a few packs to fill in the Binder.	Is that a ferret in your shirt or are you just happy to see us?
Tuesday Night at the game shop Phoenix Games has become quite popular with the regulars. Unfortunately, sometimes there is too much success. On one particular Tuesday, the D&D games started about 2 hours late because so many other games were in progress. ....
A young fellow asked me if he could use the Store to play test a new game, and, being happy to help budding new developers, I said yes. The game was a fairly simple miniatures game with some D20 elements to it. It was interesting, but quite simplistic. ....
Erin and the Art of Pumpkin Painting Erin decided to help with decorating the window by painting a few pumpkins. Her first gourd-ous creation was the generic Munchkin monster which came out wonderfully. She also painted C'Thulhu and the Store logo. It was the best version of the logo I have ever seen painted on a pumpkin .... ....
Jadam in a purple cloak is a dangerous thing!	Jon was only with us for a short time before he had to go away to boot camp. In that time, he developed quite the penchant for Munchkin and bought the complete set including all sequels and spin-offs.
During Pagan Pride Day in September, the pipe in the bathroom had started to leak and flooded the bathroom and the dressing room. After a few weeks, a plumber finally came. He jackhammered a hole into the floor around the pipe and put a semi-effective clamp on the pipe. Now, the pipe still leaks, but the water leaches into the concrete, and if it doesn't, it has a nice hole to pool in before flooding us out again.	I don't ask. You shouldn't either.
The Halloween Rocky show was fast approaching and we needed hundreds of crap kits in a hurry, so an assembly line was formed and 150 kits were made in about 30 minutes. ....
Halloween Costume Contest We kicked off our Anniversary Week this year with a Halloween Costume Contest on the night before Halloween. We offered prizes for workmanship, best effort, and sexiest. It was not a tremendously attended event, but it was certainly fun to see all the costumes. James Blair Overall Effect Andy Steinberg Best Workmanship Kelly Joy Sexiest
This was an awesome costume. Unfortunately, this picture was not actually taken at the Costume Contest. Ashley just liked getting dressed up, so she wore a series of costumes in the week before Halloween, and this is the one we got to see.	Some last minute preparations for an improvised costume.
Awwww, a Texan and his Fairy.	Got no costume? No problem, we have lots of make up! One of our chairs still has red marks from the lipstick she left on it when she sat down.
Death has a new way of collecting souls.	Real goths wear bearskins and carry battle axes.
