I got to the store at around 12:15 pm, and there wasn't a lot of traffic on this day in the store at all. By the time 2:35 pm rolled around, I had reconciled myself to the fact that no one was going to turn up for the game. I blame the weather, which is hot and humid, for most of this1. Just my luck. Oh, well, at least it did get me out of the house for part of the day. But I'm highly depressed that the game did not come off at all.
1 That and the fact that I'm an idiot for even trying to run the game in a comic shoppe in the heat like this...
