Jon, you are brilliant.
I love the idea, however from here on out Elrock must be left out of the loop. I mean how much fun is it if he knows what we will have planned for him? From now on any ideas of the sort should be sent back and forth via email, sans Elrock.
Jhan O-eater-sen: I would totally be up for D&D Felix style. Also, the Aaron portion of JohnnyAaron does not have any plans for Oct 18th. Whats up?
I am really sorry to hear about the Crash'n'stien Elrock. SuxOr ballz, eh? See now that the crash trauma is over, now the repair/Jerksurance comes into play. Its like a two part trauma event. From a Social/psychological perspective, insurance companies should make your post-trauma experience a healing process and not salt in the wounds. FuXorZ!
Ryan: Happy Belated B-Day.
All: I have finally posted the AbsentCon Images/video. I was too lazy to build an HTML version, sorry. I posted them in 800x600 format, with a nested directory with the full size images. Beware of the sizes. Also be aware the movie is 10 megs. KublaKhan images and an HTML format to follow soon.

Dungeon and Dragon
So, everybody's going to this convention in December, right? Well, I'm feeling awfully rusty as a DM and I'd like to use my mad sk1llz again. Would people like it if I ran another chapter in the somewhat not really ongoing story of Felix and company, or are people just totally over that campaign? If there's interest then I'll plan it out.
Rude... whens' teh last time you talked to JP? I haven't talked to him in months.
JohnnAaron: what are you guys going to be up to the weekend of Oct. 18th?
UPDATE: One idea I had was hiring a stripper for two hours, and then just asking her to play Blood Bowl with Eric.

Whoppin price...
of 3500 bucks or so rudee... i don't think any of you would be interested. I know i'm not. i'm seeing if I can help a friend who bought it out of impulse to sell it. It's a classy art and famous artist so it shouldn't be so bad for collectors.
Can someone ask JP for me? I'd like to get an insiders take on selling the artwork.
Sucks about the accident Eric! jeez. what's up with all these accidents? Just yesterday some idiot almost swerved into me. I think he fell asleep at the wheel.

Join the fucking club, I'll buy it for two dollars, and dont die dude!
Sucks about the crash man! Glad your ok though, right? I was bleeding out of my ears for about a week, but it stopped. Ya, insurance was pretty fucking sucky to deal with, but like all my fellow bloggers said, if you keep bugging them, they'll send you your chedda'. And they did. Still, what a fucking bummer.
[Still looking for a car myself, preferably in California. Know anyone selling cheaps, lemme know!!1]
JAEL - You nut - becareful with a motorcylcle man! What the fuck - are you having a mid-life crisis hella early??? It looks like it'd be fun as hell, but seriously man - PRETTY FRIKKIN DANGEROUS! How much you selling that painting for? I'm not going to buy it, but I'm curious.
-Sit 'n Sleep!

BB7's!!!!
So I finished the BB7's board and it rocks! I have played around a bit with the teams, and it captures a lot of the same feel as BB, but with a speedy twist (7 players, smaller field, players line up 8 spaces apart rather than next to each other)! I like it! I'll try and send a picture out soon, it turned out really nice I think. I'd like to add some turn counters, reserve boxes, scoreboard, advertisments, etc. as we go, but for now it works and did I mention it rocks?
Oh yeah, I got in an accident and my truck is undriveable. So now I am sure to have some wonderful insurance/repair shop stories to share with the blog. Driving sucks.
I have a Pontiac Grand Prix as a rental and am getting right back on the horse and driving to Vegas this weekend. And I'm taking my BB7's board with me!
Not really. About the board. Really about the crash though.

Criticizing a beta version of a (free) game...
... is like criticizing a book before the second half is written, or a house during a framing, or girl before you see her naked.
There is an option to zoom in on the board BTW. There needs to be a button to move a genestealer on the board because they can "lurk" off the board for as long as the player wants.
Also, the controls are a bit clunky, I concur, I hope they improve that feature before too long, but if not, oh well.
I'm just happy to be playing SPACE HULK!!!!
Sidenote: I am currently completing a variant Blood Bowl pitch for a variant game called BB7's. 7 players on the field, 11 players max per team, smaller pitch (11x20 spaces) and slightly different rules for a few skills and an all in one injury table. It was designed to be played in a lunch hour, so it seems like a smaller investment for people in both time and money. Hooray for modelling, terrain, styrofoam, glue, static grass, sand, and paint!
And most of all hooray for all of you!
Even moreso to Ryan who didn't tell us that yesterday was his birthday! Happy Birthday (even though I know it wasn't...)!!!!

unecessary processes
well another thing that bothers me is having to click on select to selct a guy, there is no next unit button, the aliens have to press a button to get on the board. Also I wished the pics were bigger. but I guess they couldn't do that to fit the entire board.
those are also some other improvs.

Great game though!

Harsh! Harsh! Harsh!
- These rules use 2nd edition Space Hulk, so I'm not sure that they didn't exclude the move and shoot option in 2nd edition, apparently 2nd edition removed the opportunity for Marines to use their leftover CP's on the Genestealers turn as if it wasn't difficult enough for the marines to win. I can't check that rule seeing as I only have first edition, and Johnny can no longer check that rule either.....
- There is sound, unless I am hearing things. I particularly like the Marine death screeeeeeeeaaaaaaaaaaaammmmmm!
- The network version is hopefully going to be available in the next release, I'm not holding my breath cause these people are working for free and I can't really make any demands of them.
- Clustered message screen? Not sure what you mean.
- At first the console was a bit confusing but I learned it pretty well after one game.
I love it! Love it love it love it!
And you can't get mad at their english skills either, I think they are French.
I'll play you Mike Mike Motorbyke! I'll try sending a game to your hotmail account and see what happens!
NOTE: I can't send to your hotmail account incidentally. I need your school account. My email is my (first name) AT showcasebc DOT com.

SPACCE MARINES KKKK KKKK KKKKKKK!!!
Hey, I'll be a little more lenient in my criticism since the game is afterall free. But there are quirks and gliches galore. I like the concept but there's definitely improvements that can be made. Here's a list
there's no move/fire combo
the command console (point and click) is not very user-friendly
there's no sound (easier to realize what happens, alien dies, human dies etc)
the message screen is very clustered
**there's no realtime play (like blood bowl)
I'm sure they can improve this in newer versions, it won't be hard to do!
Johnny

Beware the Ska Robot Army!
Space Hulk = almost as good as a Blood bowl by email game! So, who's up first? It will only take you three years to play against me (due to my rapid email response time!) Seriously, though, I'm ready to play, so let's try it out! Right now, I'm in the computer lab at the archaeology deptartment listening to some old music, and trying to finish processing 200 files -- oooh! the fun!
Gotta go pee now.

What can you tell us about Hispanic Muslims?
Don't know if any of you watched the Emmys last night - it was mostly a snooze-fest, BUT Jon Stewart put together a pretty funny montage of news coverage on the war and how absurd it all is/was. Funny stuff!
That recall is coming up, so do yourself a favor and download this absentee ballot for the recall so they can't pull a Florida on you and throw out your vote or whatever. I hate Gray Davis like the rest of us (and rightfully so) but this recall is a fuckin sham and don't support it! No on Recall, Yes on __________ (I'm picking Bustamante - you pick whoever except Arnie.) Do it!
Hurry Hurry Hurry!

Forgot to add that to my "hate" list! Not the game - the game is cool. But that night at some movie. I dont remember what movie, but I remember Jon and perhaps JP doing the Space Marines dance at the end of the movie. OMG.
Pretty cool game! I played a me vs me match last night - pretty cool! The death sound is a little Epic, but otherwise, seems pretty solid huh! Its gonna be the new BB!
