This just in, The Australian Games Day is now rumored to be cancelled for this year. Nothing official yet, so consider this still a rumor, but if so, that would hurt for all of those hobbyist down under that were looking forward to the event.


Please remember that this is still a rumor, and hopefully does not come to reality. These events are something I have always liked, and in recent years have seemed to be scaled back.

You may be aware of this already, sorry if you are. I was just told today that Australia will not hold a Games Day event this year. The reason given was that the venue wanted to increase the cost and Australia now has less staff (due to the 1 man stores primarily) so they would not be able to really staff the event anyway.

Personally I consider this a pretty big blow to the gaming community in Oz. On top of what continues to go on with prices, now all those customers that actually remain loyal won't be given the chance to meet artists, sculptors etc and enjoy the spectacle that is Games Day. Basically because of a push to reduce staff for more profitable stores it seems.

Passing this on so maybe you can get the word out anyway, who knows Games Workshop may change their mind if they have enough people complaining talking to them about this. Stranger things have happened.
