Half of Malifaux stuff, including the upcoming rulebook, at Miniature Market!

Thanks for the congrats guys (and the Lego advice!?)! We're home now. Last night wasn't the most restful night, but things are going well. Big Sister seems to like having a little brother so hopefully that will go well.

| Legos are always the best - gifts. Gratz!

Felicitations!  It's always great getting new minis.  Ditto on the Star Wars...

Congratulations my man! Go team Solo-Gaming-Dads!

| Huzzah!!!!

The real moral of the story is that your wife should learn to listen to instructions and WAIT for daycare to open.

Congrats!!!

PS I'm free for playing the Star Wars RPG tonight.

ZOMG new baby!!! 2 weeks early to the day. I'll post pics and stuff on FB later. Everything went great, although I lost my eligibility for father of the year by not actually being in the room when he was born.

Long story short: we went to the hospital at midnight, we had nobody to watch Kid 1 so we brought her, she was super upset and freaked out by the creepy hospital, couldn't get back to sleep. It seemed like not much was going on contraction-wise, so we decided I should bring the kid back home and come back either when the shit hit the fan, or after I could drop her off at day care. Two hours later, the wife pulled another of her fastball specials. Had a couple heavy but somewhat irregular contractions, midwife took a look, said "hey he's coming out right now!", like ten minutes later I get a call that I've got a kid!

Anyway the moral of the story is daycare should be open 24 hours.

Whatup ja-el! I haven't been watching Breaking Bad, but I have been watching this video. Hilarious!

Breaking Board -  Medical marijuana to boon in Las vegas

Anyone?  jk.  that was my dark past.  I've put away my crazy biz axes.  Here's some articles though if some people are thinking about baking some cookies.  Edit: Blue Cookies (code)

BB series season 5 is pretty awesome so far.  Some dull moments where they tend to drag on Emo talk scenes, but getting closer to Season 1-2's action packed sequences.

| Board with Life: The Series

Watching this on the YouTubes and it's actually pretty good!  You should check it out, it's not nearly as lame as you expect.

| Keep 'em

Like jr0n said, combining the two starter sets will almost give you all the cards you need to have 3 of each card.  I have two sets and I think there are 5 or 6 cards that I have a photocopied proxies for to make 3 of each.  All releases past the starter set includes three of each card, FYI.

Not to mention your balls and starter set are such a small blip on Amazon's radar, it's not worth getting involved. In my case however, when I kept a mis-mailed Memoir '44 that was sent to me in French and DoW then sent an english version and THEN asked that I mailed back the French version, I of course didn't do it, because I'm a jerk and like to hurt little game companies as well as multinational corporations the same.

I Played Pathfinder Last Night!
It was 'okay'.  I only played the first scenario, which is fairly simplistic, however I don't really see how any of the other scenarios would be THAT much different, or interesting, or dynamic.  Mostly it's flip a card from one of three location piles, either try to fight it or try to claim it, move the 30 card countdown timer.  Rinse, repeat.

It wasn't THAT simple, and there was some hand management, and some fun equipment/ally discoveries, but it was pretty simplistic.  A fun part is after the game you need to reduce your deck down to the same amount of starting cards, in the same categories, but you can sort of customize the deck based on what you found in the last scenario.  I will now take this character deck into the next scenario of the adventure path.

I plan on playing the next game at lunch today, and I'll comment afterward.

I googled it and I guess it's a pretty common occurrence. This one guy got 3 wii's when he only ordered 1, this is when he could sell them for $600 bucks each. TOTALLY DUDE. It's funny too because they emailed me saying "we're so sorry your package hasn't shipped! We guarantee it will be there tomorrow!" It still came on the day they originally estimated, so I assume it was some hiccup that led to them thinking they had to rush another order out. I will teach my new baby right from wrong and what it means to totally score one against The Man.

I'd probably let em know but they probably won't give a shit. Or, maybe I wouldn't :). It would really depend on my mood!

There are some hero cards in the lotr core set that you only get one or two of, but you can have up to three, so the dupe cards could be useful, along with the extra threat trackers.

I don't think I'd ever heard he was Catholic, but that still seems a billion times less controversial or scandalous than if he was Born Again Christian, like Dave Mustaine or whoever.

My dilema: My Amazon order that included Lord of the Rings Card Game and a Birth Ball (fitness ball thingies) came in, TWICE! I checked my Amazon account and my bank account - I wasn't ever charged twice, but they somehow have sent me the same box two times. What would you guys do? Do I wait then try to "return" one of the boxes for a "refund"? Just be upfront and report it to them? For some reason keep both copies of Lord of the Rings Card game and a pink blow up BALL?

| Catholic Slayer

Yes, Tom Araya actually has some good interviews where he discusses how both Slayer and Catholicism fit in his life. Seems an unlikely pairing, but he is able to reconcile the two. He comes off as a pretty intelligent guy.

Five does sound pretty high. Go Comic Sans!

Apparently the lead singer of Slayer is a devout Catholic. Did we know this??
