Revision as of 14:28, 7 November 2007

This page is for discussion of stuff related to the game coming up this week, no matter when that actually is. For instance, we can all assume Nate isnt coming for some lame reason and that Ed is sick of pizza and is bringing teriyaki or some other crap. They can post something here if that happens to be untrue.

--Edmiao 13:28, 7 November 2007 (MST) going back to 7pm this week or are we going to try 6pm again?

Attendance and Food preference

11/9/07

--Edmiao 14:15, 4 November 2007 (MST) present, maybe cheryl also.

BEN: present. I vote heroscape if we can get it together. If not, I can see if my friend Mike (who actually showed up saturday and rang the wrong doorbell...:( ) would be interested in some boardgaming. We can also play some magic cards (I think my parents are gonna send me my set of cards, which is smaller than Ed's but will still add some new stuff to the mix). Final option if none of those is appealing or possible is to try to run some sort of one shot.

--76.164.21.217 14:31, 5 November 2007 (MST)I dont know if I will be available, but if I am I can bring my magic cards and leave them with you guys no matter what. I also have heroclix too. On the one shot front we can try the cyberpunk one shot Matt and Justin played, it turned out ok and is fine for up to 4 players. I also just got Fortress America and Shogun, which are good for 5 or 6 players respectively.

--Edmiao 15:51, 5 November 2007 (MST) I assume that was Jason above? never tried heroclix, that would be fun also. I vote heroscape, heroclix or magic, or perhaps a bit of either heroX plus magic.

--Gdaze-- Sure, any sound okay by me. Most likely I won't play all night however. I'll see if I can't pull together all the magic cards I've had over the years... not really that many so m'eh who knows. Maybe I'll pick up a deck this week just to test it out!

BEN: well, we've rearranged the table at my place, so it's pretty ideal for heroscape, but I know that's a lot of shit to move. So if you'd rather not, we should meet at gabe's house. In addition, lets bring some magic cardzors and we can play that as well when we get tired of slaughtering each others' mans. I still need to make a deck that, you know, doesn't suck. Royally. <---Not ben, but accurate.

--Gdaze-- Or lets just hold it at my place? I lack a good table but I think I can put something together... oh shit... were my 4x4s ruined in the flood...

Ranting and raving or other random comments

Other Non-RPG gaming Events

--Edmiao 14:15, 4 November 2007 (MST) Cheryl and I had a great time last night. thanks for cooking up some good grub Ben and Kim!

BEN: yeah, good times. it went from a quiet evening to a downright part-ay. we'll have to do it again next time kim is in town.

--Edmiao 12:02, 5 November 2007 (MST)i had forgotten how difficult it can be to learn robo rally. next time we'll play some easier to learn games.

--Gdaze-- Robo-Rally is hard to learn? Since when? If your losing just sit on an upgrade spot and blow everyone away!

--Edmiao 18:49, 5 November 2007 (MST) Roborally is hard to learn for some people who may have spend too much time with your mom and now are suffering from tertiary syphilis which has turned their brains into slimy goo. boo ya!

--Gdaze-- That sucked. Boo.

--Gdaze-- Holy crap! 99 pages of rules not counting the glossary! Reading these rules it awful too. The way they lay them out and the words they use to code everything. That is A LOT of rules for a CCG to have in my humble view, which is right, always, so shut up. http://www.wizards.com/magic/comprules/MagicCompRules071001.pdf

ALSO! Since when the fuck where magic cards so hard to find? I figured I'd pick up a new deck right? See what it is like. Toy R Us had known, despite having pokemon, yugioh, and some pony CCG. Boarder's doesn't carry any. No place in the mall did either (video game store and toy store). What the heck, I remember being able to get these things at 7-11's!

--Edmiao 20:27, 6 November 2007 (MST) Gary's games in seattle still has them, i presume that they would be at your local gaming store

--Gdaze 00:34, 7 November 2007 (MST) Yeah... and uncle's games has them here. The thing is there are none in Bellevue. So around my work... zilch. I pulled out my old cards today. I had a lot more then I thought but due to an event where my dad's tub overran, cause he wasn't paying attention, it dripped water on my box. Guess the damage was more then I thought. I have some cards I "think" I can fix... including a force of nature! GAH!

--Edmiao 08:47, 7 November 2007 (MST) brutal. would an iron work?

--Gdaze -- Hmm it might..., cept this morning my dad informed me our iron broke! Some were just totally damaged and have already been tossed, nothing too rare. I think the box absorbed water or something and I didn't notice it, and then the water transfered to the cards. Anyway, I really enjoyed playing last time and am looking forward to some more magic this Friday! I bought some new cards too, I have to say I really like the Asian expansion and the Future Sight series is pretty neat too. I got this one card that is disgusting. Its called "Ed".

ZING! Besides that, maybe we should just play at my place? I can clear off that table up stairs at least for the duration of heroscape. Oh! I also have some 4 X 4 boards I used for table top so we can just put one of those on the card table. Sound good, d'yeah?

--Gdaze-- Man nobody posts, lame. QUICK QUESTION! Since it is just us playing magic for fun, we can use cards from unglued and unhinged right? I found some boosters for really cheap... I will not get to into magic again... I won't, I won't, I won't... http://www.dacardworld.com/gaming/itemlist.das?Category=Magboxes&nCount=600&nPar=2 They have older cards that can't be used for fairly cheap...

--Edmiao 13:27, 7 November 2007 (MST) if you just want to expand your set, check out ebay and search "Magic the gathering lot". there is a lot of 750 cards closing in 8 minutes going for $1 plus $10 shipping. seems to be fairly regular occurence and at most these look like they go for $10-15 for the lot plus shipping. easy way to get a fuck load of commons (they all say "with rares" but who know how many rares are in there. I play with whatever cards, restricted or not. the cards that I own that are terribly unbalancing in just for fun play are Sol Rings (1 mana artifact tap to get 2 mana, that's ridiculous). I sometimes put them into decks that are fun but too slow.
