Mark is bringing the beer

Root beer? I believe you must have missed the part where it is my birthday...

 

[KnowTheToe]

I believe in the Hobbit tradition of giving others presents on your Birthday. With that wonderful tradition in mind and knowing gameday will never fall on my B-day, I again request a six pack of a cold beer. No Budweiser please.

If you insist, I can bring the cooler with ice.

Mark, are you going to have any werebears in your adventure? If so, i may have a fig for you

 

[Desdichado]

I've got a great fig for you if you feature any rat ogres in your adventure. Or steamjacks, for that matter. No?

Oh, I have that covered in the form of a dozen game books as prizes (mostly hardcovers) of which I am saving the best as prizes for those in my late game (gotta stick around until my actual birthday on the 24th to get the presents ).

With that wonderful tradition in mind and knowing gameday will never fall on my B-day, I again request a six pack of a cold beer. No Budweiser please.

You'll just have to step up and run the gamedays one of these years, and find some way to adjust the schedule. When is your birthday? You might talk to Buzz and Curt about taking over the gameday organizer duties at the next changing of the guard.

If you insist, I can bring the cooler with ice.

No need.

Man, I have SOOOOOOOOOOO many bear figs now it isn't even funny.... (Thanks!)

More info on prizes

Copied from e-mail from the Council of Magisters:

I have no idea what the prizes are, but since Monte asked for a mailing address, it may be what they did at GenCon. A copy of Children of the Rune and of Plague of Dreams.

Monte is such a swell guy.


Peace and smiles

Buzz - Didn't Nikmal confirm in reply #171 that he was definitely going to want to run a painting seminar in slot two? If so, doesn't that cover the six table for that slot? Anyway, that's the way I was understanding what I had read but I might be mistaken.

Mark you read correct. I thought that it was already scheduled.. and they still needed the unfilled slot.. guess I should have checked eh.. sorry.

Yea.. but you would NOT want to imagine me dancing.. especially at my weight and handicap. everyone would lose thier perspective lunches!

Painting Seminar

Learn the basics or fine-tune your skills. We will be providing the option of painting Reaper miniature 2758: Stern Kestrelmann, Paladin by Werner Klocke as a group. This miniature has well defined hair, a chiseled face, armor, sword, boots, cloak and a gem. He will allow us to cover a huge spectrum of options.

We will provide a “How To” sheet discussing the techniques and options used in painting as well as answering any questions you may have (to the best of our ability). We will provide a prepped and primed Stern miniature for each participant interested. I will also bring copies of My Painting Binder burned onto CD. For some reason I could not ZIP it and therefore could not email it to people.
