A Bloody Awesome Birthday!


IT IS THE 18th OF JUNE! I REPEAT – IT IS JUNE 18TH!

Why is this important? Well, beloved patrons, today is the day where we come together as a community to celebrate the birth of our lord and saviour. No not the big JC, that’s what Christmas is for. Today is store owner, professional bingo caller and community celebrity Trevor’s birthday!

Does he know that I am publishing this on a blog to inspire the EPIC Community to wish him a “Bloody Awesome” birthday? No, no he doesn’t.

Why should we come together to celebrate the man who loves Pepsi Max nearly as much as his own children? Well here is a slight insight:

Trevor and Trish opened this store with one goal in mind, to make it community-focused. If you don’t know why that’s so important you can read more in my previous article. Moreover, as a staff under his employ, I have had the privilege to say that he is one of the most kind-hearted and generous employers any individual could hope to have as a boss. It seems an injustice to associate him with the typical stereotypes that come with bosses or employers.

The man is a leader, he leads by example and it shows! If you have ever had a conversation with him, he fully engages in the conversation to make you feel heard, his empathy and generosity are cornerstones, driving forces that fuel EPIC to its emphasis on community. We listen to your concerns and take them onboard, something both he and Trish are prime examples of.

One of his shining achievements is in the Bingo community, helping start Team Cupcakes Bingo at EPIC and calling numbers from the very beginning. The jewel of this achievement is Speed Bingo. I keep holding out for Trevor’s Rap Career to start (If I can ever get him into a recording booth).

 

A Call to Action!

Ladies and Gentlemen of the internet, I call you to arms! Grab your bottles of Pepsi Max and start the battle cries “Have a bloody awesome birthday Trevor!”

Your Friend and Ally,

Lachy

The website got a facelift

 It has been busy busy busy behind the scenes here at EPIC Ipswich over the past fortnight. Prep work for the Benevolent Owners shared vacation, juggling the change in the store's layout, new til systems, new television menus, and becoming increasingly popular. This isn't even factoring in the change in menu, or the upcoming events planned. We have been busy and you can trust I'll give you, loyal readers, a store update once we get time. In the meantime, our website has been updated by yours truly. When I first did the original website home page I had the essential elements, with a lot of my working hours, I've been making the website more streamlined and more friendly to our bandwidth. Please note, that the game pages are still to be updated to provide you more information about what we do here. In the mean time, anticipate big things on the horizon. I saw some streaming gear in the offices.... I suspect it will have something to do with videos on the social media end....

What is Adventurers League?

  Adventurers League is a standardised and regulated form of Dungeons & Dragons . It uses the rules as written in the official D&D books, so you don't need to worry about any homebrew rules. Character creation is limited to the Players Handbook and one other source, which means you don't have to worry about anyone making characters that are too game-breaking, as well as all the possible worlds you can end up in are all published D&D settings  To put it simply, Adventurers League takes all of the guesswork out of D&D. The stories are already written, the rules are plainly outlined, and everything is structured. So it is a great place to learn as a player and even as a Game Master  Each session is a short self-contained 2-4 hour story, though some will make callbacks to other stories you won't miss much if you can only come in once a fortnight instead of every week, unlike other games where it always feels like when you miss one session you end up missing ...
