I'm glad to see Dungeon Quest getting a lot of love. My dad bought it at a garage sale many years ago, yet it is probably the most played game in my collection.
Anyway, on to August.
I had made a slight error in the upcoming events page, which has since been corrected. The August, Pub Con will be on Sunday the 30th, not Monday the 31st.
Starting in August there will be a change to the all-you-can-drink deal. Instead of all the soft drinks from the menu to choose from, the owner has consulted with me to limit the deal menu down to these drinks:
Coffee
Iced Tea
Hot Tea
Coke
Ginger Ale
Orange juice
Grapefruit juice
Hot Chocolate
Also the 8% sales tax will be added to the price, bringing the total up to ¥1080.
The reason for the change stems from the large increase in the number of participants in the event. Back when we started there were about 10-15 people coming, and 4 or 5 of whom would drink soft drinks. Now we have 25-35 people coming and it is too expensive for the bar to keep all of their drinks on the all-you-can-drink list. I hope that doesn't put anyone off too bad.
I look forward to seeing you all on August 30th!
