From: Winona RPSIGSent: Fri, 19 Oct 2001 09:33:48 -0600 (CST) To: Subject: Newsletter for TOMORROW! (Gah! *sigh* %@$&?$@!) Okay, this is the end! Your secretary has finally gotten fed up with the vax eating the newsletter (regardless of the reasons for it, if any). I am sick of having to completely re-type the thing at least once every week (if not twice). This ends now. After this goes out, RPSIG's secretary and librarian will be setting up a new off-campus e-mail account. The address will be forthcoming. The Con happens in just two weeks. Pre-register if you can. You won't find a better convention deal in Minnesota than $5 for one day and $9 for two. Featuring all-day anime room, the Cheapass games room, tons of games, a panel discussion, and more. The Game-A-Thon committee (which currently consists of Matt Stremcha) has reserved Holzinger Lodge for the weekend after Easter. Volunteers are welcomed and in fact necessary. Contact Matt for the details. Voting on T-shirt designs was too close too call. Therefore, there will be a vote-off this meeting. Contact Lisa for the details. Game Descriptions First Session _Japanese Language_, Session 2 Instructor: Richard Schreiber Participlants limited only by seating. The second class will contain review of what we covered in the previous class, new vocabulary and structures, a bunch of new verbs, and new kana and kanji. Hope you all studied. Chris Wagoner would like to inform the players of the D&D 3E game he was going to run first session that is has been postponed until after the Con so that a key player may be there. Drew Netteberg has promised to run something during first session; what it is, I cannot be sure.
