NHSD 2011 Photo Sharing Thread

[Carnival Man]

Someone always takes photos at their respective NHSD events every year. So I thought a thread that had examples from each event would be a nice addition this year.

I also thought this would be a reasonable way to get my idea out to those who haven't read it in the How to really save Heroscape: A lesson from history or Updated again: How to really save Heroscape threads, it goes like this:

When people take photos at tournaments, make sure to take a couple of wide shots so the viewer can see all of the maps & people playing. Then print out copies of said photos & mail them to the Hasbro address (and WotC if you like) this year. Seeing many rooms-full of people playing Heroscape would be a good reminder to the powers that be that it might have been a mistake to retire this game.

Even if you aren't going to mail copies, please post one or more of your photos here with a link to your local event thread.

Thanks in advance.

Here's a couple of my photos from a very successful Bay Area Brawl 2011:





Anyone else have some good pics?

I mailed 3 of my photos & a short letter to Hasbro's Pres. today. I also sent a set to WotC just so they could see what they are missing out on.

I already got a somewhat unsatisfactory response in the mail, I'm glad for the quick response but here it is:

In today's mail there was a bit better response from Wizards, a hand written note from their Pres.:

"Thanks for sharing the photos. I love the NorCal trophy. We have no plans at this time to expand the Heroscape business but notes like yours do get our attention. I might be visiting SF soon & if so will try to drop by Ronin Games & Hobbies.

"Best,
Greg
