Game Day: DMG2: Thanks for Participating! Worldwide D&D Game Day: Dungeon Master's Guide 2 took place Saturday, September 19th. R&D's Chris Youngs posted the following blog entry regarding the event:
"I just wrapped up my presentation and Q&A at Fanboy 3 in Manchester, England. What fun! I gave an informal version of Bill's Gen Con presentation. I may have spent a little extra time up-selling D&D Insider. Not that I needed to bother, really, since the vast majority of folks here today are subscribers. I saw lots of excitement for all our upcoming releases, but Dark Sun, Dungeon Tiles, and the upcoming new race books all received high interest." (Read more...)
In addition, Charles Ryan posted the following coverage as well:
"Our guest from WotC, DDI Editor-in-Chief Chris Youngs, just completed his talk with the D&D fans here at Fanboy 3. Chris gave an overview of products planned for the rest year and into next summer, talked about D&D Insider, and answered questions on a broad range of topics. His presentation was based on the seminar given by Director of RPG R&D Bill Slavicsek at Gen Con last month, but Chris kept the talk open to questions and feedback throughout, and he asked a number of questions of his own, so the result was perhaps not identical."

Bring your friends and join in the fun as we celebrate the release of Dungeon Master's Guide 2, packed with new options for your Dungeons & Dragons 4th Edition game.
In the spirit of Dungeon Mastering, we're giving you the opportunity to create and show off your very own adventure! Work as a team to build encounters using the materials provided. After your team has finished, play another team's adventure or DM the one your team created. We provide you with everything you need -- maps, miniatures, monster stats, and how-to instructions. Just bring your imagination, a pencil or pen, and some dice!
Just for playing, you'll take home the pregenerated character sheet and a miniature of the character you played. If you DM the game, you'll take home a poster map of the encounter areas and a pack of monster miniatures used in the adventure.
This is a very special activity that has never before been a part of Worldwide D&D Game Day! But don't worry if you just want to play; you can participate in as much or as little of the adventure-building activity as you want. Nothing, however, beats the satisfaction of hearing another team howl in terror as they fight the foes and traps you placed for them!
A Passage Into Mystery is a special team-created 6th-level adventure that uses tiles from DU3 Caves of Carnage and monsters from the Monster Manual: Legendary Evils miniatures expansion. Come out on September 19 and be a part of the adventure!
