When I first contacted the store owner, after moving out of Toronto, this really seemed like a slam dunk. After all, from a store's perspective, the whole idea of events like Free RPG Day or DCC Day are to get new people into the store.
I have never asked a store for anything other than early access to materials to run these events, and, frankly, the stores I have run for in the past - Hairy Tarantula, 401 Games, Noble Knight, the sadly defunct Wizard's Cache, and my one-time home away from home, the Sword & Board, were all proactive in helping make these events a success. And they were successful, sometimes with enough players to stretch my GMing skills to new levels.
In this case, however, no real effort seems to have been made, and I am tired of chasing the owner for updates. Chalk this one up to experience, I guess.
Apologies to any and all I have disappointed.
