 |
|
Wizards of the Coast has pledged to donate up to $22,000 to Penny Arcade’s Child’s Play Organization in honor of the Magic 2011 Launch. The Child’s Play Organization provides game materials to children in hospitals, and WotC is challenging the Magic community to support this very special children’s charity by attending a launch party for Magic 2011. The worldwide events will begin at 12:00am on July 16th in New Zealand and continue through 11:59 pm on July 19th in Hawaii.
If 40,000 people attend the M11 launch parties, WotC will donate $11,000, and for each additional 1,000 attendees WotC will donate another $1,100 up to a limit of $22,000 if 50,000 people attend the M11 launch parties worldwide.
The Gamers Den will be holding our Launch Party event at 12:00 noon on Saturday, July 17th. Although I don't expect this to have a huge affect on attendance, it is nice to know that Wizards will be providing this as an extra bonus for those people who do attend launch parties.
Hope to see many of you here!
