Door's open, boys.

Aren't those just Doppelgangers on Al Capone's payroll?

Doesn't quite smell wrong in here, but something just isn't Wight...

Ok, ok I'll stop.

Got a lot of minis almost done today. Debating if I wanna start decaling them or not.

Nope but that does open the door to a very long story about my idiot cousin, her first marriage, and the meat guy.

Is the short version that your cousin had sex with the meat guy? That seems wrong, I was certain that was a right reserved unto pizza deliverymen and plumbers.

See, I don't begrudge the meat guy the opportunity normally "reserved" for pizza guys and plumbers but WHO has a MEAT guy.  Besides my cousin, that is.

Hmmm, because it has quotes for everything:

Sherry in 'Logjammin': [on video] You must be here to fix the cable.
Maude Lebowski: Lord. You can imagine where it goes from here.
The Dude: He fixes the cable?
Maude Lebowski: Don't be fatuous, Jeffrey.

Whew!  Finally got done messing with record sheets and sorting out which pages I need from which PDFs.  Tomorrow I head to Staples and get them printed out.  The rest of the night I shall pack up my terrain, and suitcase.  Then Im 75% ready for DragonCon on Thursday.

...and this weekend, I shall attempt to introduce myself and the rest of my group to Crimson Skies. Hopefully, this will go well.

How many games are you running this year, WL4? Are you free any days or stuck in the catacombs until Sunday?

This year I did the "management" work.  IE I setup the scenarios, getting the sheets, providing the terrain and minis, submitted the games to DC and all that stuff.  Beyond helping setup and packup each day I get to do whatever.  Got enough help this year that I dont have to actually "run" anything.  Im lucky that the games at DC are NOTHING like GC or Origins and are more like pickup games than Tournament style games, which gives me the ability to go play this year.  Considering the years Ive had little or no help I think Ive earned a year off.

As far as games there is a 4 hour one Friday, and an 8 hour game on Saturday and Sunday.  With bootcamps on Saturday and Sunday.

Edit:  With my typical setup of Clan vs Clan, IS vs IS, and Clan vs IS fights.

Have fun at the Con. God, I miss going to conventions and having fun.  :(

Wierdo, is the Crimson Skies game you are playing the old 1998 game or the clicky tech game? I loved that game, but it disappeared quicker than Renegade Legion or Centurion.

All this meat guy talk reminds me of a guy I was in the Guard (and, briefly, college) with.  It seems he was christened 'The Butcher' by a girlfriend for the way he *ahem* distributed the meat.

server down again?
Delivered from the blast,
Last of a line of lasts,
The pale princess of a palace cracked.
And now the kingdom comes;
crashing down undone,
And I am a master of a nothing place,
Of recoil and grace.
