No. As much as I love Christmas, I hate Christmas decorations.

Its no video tour, but one of the local radio stations took a picture for a news story last week of me in the store. We are in a pretty small space so its hard to take a decent photo, but I thought this one turned out well.

Speaking of which Crabby, we're nearing on a year for the store opening, right? Planning on anything for the anniversary? I guess technically September 1st is the anniversary, but the official trademarking of the name is up.

First RF Gen's tenth anniversary, then Nupoile's ninth... there's all sorts to celebrate around here.

I guess technically
September 1st
is the anniversary[...]
...the same date World War II began. Hey, I know how to celebrate the store's first full year of operation: hold a WWII FPS tournament!
Call of Duty
,
Medal of Honor
, or even the
Wolfenstein
series, take your pick. It's not like you're wanting for choices...

Crabby what level is your beard at now? I'm behind on the podcasts but it looks like you've surpassed the grand master kung fu level.

Maybe not the most appropriate shirt to have had on, but I didn't have any notice before they arrived
@Shadow - No plans yet, but I still have a couple months to figure that out.
@h1ghw1nd - That picture was taken just a couple weeks ago so its pretty close to that still. Working towards my Grand Wizard status beard right now.

This is an awesome thread and I wanted to respond here after "finding" a semi local store recently. I stumbled upon it because a bridge was closed (unfortunate for them for sure) and I had to turn around. I had no idea why a game store would be so remote as it was, and to top it off, they were closed on Sundays and had terrible hours - focusing more on being open during regular weekday business hours than times when people would be out shopping and off work/school. I checked them out on Facebook and deduced they had moved from a different location (rent reasons) a year or so earlier but hadn't updated their page but ONCE the entire calendar year after. The signage looked good, and peering inside they had a decent selection but it bewildered me that they could drop the ball so badly with marketing.
I post this because Game Quest is the exact
opposite
- well planned, built a brand, interacts with customers to create loyalty, etc. I can't imagine running a business is easy (or else everyone would) but it always surprises me when the most obvious things as I've described above are ignored.
Good work Crabby.
