Hi,
The special events page is live. There is a link to under the D&D event and a
link in the left menu Events submenu.
The search has been generalized to Dungeons & Dragons. Our search method doesn't
do + yet, but we now handle case insensitive searches.
As for the Z-Man events, please don't pollute the game system field. I've added
the ability to search on description for links only. As long as Z-Man is
somewhere in the description, it will be found. Of course, this is moot until we
have the page up for Zev Shlasinger. The hold up on that is a bio and hopefully
a picture.
As for the Pre-reg button, not sure about the event page, but we might do
something more direct on the home page.
