I normally do well with Miniature Market but so much recently.

I wanted a brick of 'Rage of Demons' since it had some figures I really wanted but can't bring myself to pay for individually (40+)

Held off ordering with my sickness. It was 95.00 then. Two weeks later after the operation I go buy it. 150 now. WHAH?!?

My son gives me the difference and I order it.

As I opened the brick- one booster only had 3 figures but the next box has 5..... but its two goblins (most common)

Only 3 rares in the entire brick. Not saying it was opened but....... That was easily the worst brick I have ever had and the most costly.

Anybody wanna take a road trip to Wisconsin?

I need to go to Noble Knight Games and put some boots upside some heads...

I bought a miniature from them off teh EvilBay.
The next day, I get the "Your Item has Shipped" email.

The day after that, I get an email stating the seller has cancelled my order and given a full refund because "the item was out of stock or broken"...

Seriously?

UPDATE: The miniature actually showed up. So I basically got it for free. I have absolutely no idea why they decided that the figure was out of stock after they'd already shipped it, and refunded my money, but I'm irritated enough with them that I'm not about to email them to inform them of their screw-up.
Buncha knuckleheads over there.

CTGamerCon is happening this weekend. It's only a mile from my house. It's supposed to be a video gaming and and tabletop gaming convention.

But I'm about 99% sure I'm not going to bother going at all.

Looking at the con website, which looks cheaply done, all they have is some video game tournaments and Magic: The Gathering tournaments... No mention of any other gaming at all.

They don't even have a list of vendors that will be there. Seriously...
It's like the website was an afterthought, like they just threw something together at the last minute, despite the website having been up for months.

I may roll by on Saturday and ask some of the attendees about what's going on, but I'm pretty sure at this point I can't be arsed to pay $20 for a day pass if all I'm gonna do is spend an hour or two wandering around the merch tables looking at stuff I have no real interest in.

Took our border collies to the vet the other day. On our way out, they were each given a Kong brand dog toy, in this case, a cow with a bottle inside, that has rattle beads inside of it. So the cow rattled and crinkles when bitten, instead of the more common squeaky sound. Both dogs love them...but not as much as I do.

Our dogs are smart enough to ID toys by name, and I have named them after the French word for cow: Vache.

Which means, of course, I can tell them to “feche la Vache” with an outraaaaaaaaaaageous Fronch accent!

Flinging the Vaches through the air is also somehow more fun, too.

Been busy doing a Torg 3.5 conversion. Hard to do considering the Drama deck and add rolls on a ten or twenty. But the players are simple. 3.5 rules or nothing.
