[Western Michigan Gamers Guild]

If you've been meaning to pre-register for Marmalade Dog 8 but haven't 
gotten around to it keep in mind that your check needs to be postmarked 
March 22nd or earlier (this Saturday).  Visit our web site and fill out 
the form:  http://www.wmgg.org/marmaladedog/

Speaking of the web site, if you look closely you should find a number of 
games have been added recently.  Systems include:

* 7th Sea
* Babylon 5 Wars
* Munchkin d20
* Star Trek 2nd Edition CCG

Details on this year's miniature painting contest have also made it to the 
web site.  If mini painting is your thing, dust off your favorite pieces 
as we have some excellent prizes from Reaper Miniatures.  The categories 
are:

* Single Fantasy (25-54mm)
* Single Sci-Fi (25-54mm) 
* Single Historical (20-54mm)
* Single Mech/Vehicle (up to 20mm / 1/22 scale)

The LAN party people on this list will want to note that there is a poll 
in the LAN party section of the web site to determine what game people 
would like to see a tournament in at Marmalade Dog.  Keep in mind that 
this is merely to gauge interest and we aren't yet sure that there will be 
a tournament.  Expect more information after the poll closes (March 22nd).
