You, shy about asking or saying something? What are you a pod version of Superfly?
Cool! I will be bringing the eggs, tea, water, and a Kahlua cake. Kahlua, that doesn't seem like I spelled that correctly. Anyways, it's a cake that you eat, get loopy, and then take your clothes off and urinate in public. Good stuff!

Uh, that's psilocybin cake that makes you get butt naked and run in the woods. ;D
No, I was a little apprehensive because the last time I did a tourney I gave away a LOT of figures that Joe had Hasbro send me and I just really don't want to hose someone else at a different tourney somewhere else as us Cincinnati locals have had a couple of shots at winning (which I have won 2 sets already, one of which Chris got, the other Malform got).
That's all, not shy, just not greedy. Now if it was S1 Tourney figs, then I would be begging like a homeless person at a 7-11.

Chris is the lone holdout (friggin accountants) who does like it, but not as much as the standard. When he rolls by we play 4-5 games on the standard, then 1-2 games NSS. He says it's really cool, but his eyes and body language tell a less enthusiastic story. Really? I might seem different than usual because I'm just not as used to the rules...but I really do enjoy playing on it. I believe I might be in "thinking too much mode" because there is more to consider with the obstacles... so it may look like I am not having as much fun, but it's probably because I am taxing my mental facilities too much. Perhaps I'm just bored because I put a whoopin on you every time we've played on it... yeah - that's it! ;D

You guys almost caught a break. I couldn't find my Venoms and had to turn the daughter upside down to get them. Now I have them ALL. How many Venoms does that give me? Oh, yeah.......enough. ;D 12:30. That works for me. It's an almost 2 1/2 hour drive so I can use the extra time to get wifey and kids outta bed. What time do you propose we eat, Pete?

If you're late it won't matter much. I don't expect much resistance ;D
No, seriously, if someone's late it's OK. We can always put them in the last bracket and then have them play it out at the end. Or if they're REALLY late, we can play the first rounds of other 'events' until they show. If they're REALLY REALLY late, and don't call me, well, then they're hosed.
Had you READ the initial post that I've been nice enough to constantly update ;D instead of eating the Kahlua cake (yes, I murdered Kahlua too) it would show you. I'm looking at around 4:30 but my lovely and talented companion here will be prepping 25 burgers and getting chip bowls ready and CLEANING CLEANING the house tomorrow, so if people are getting hungry earlier, we can fire up the 'cue and start earlier.
Remember, this is first a BBQ and party, secondarily a tournament. All of us (except you, GE ;D ) have been friends for years and this is sort of a douchebag-grown-men-that-play-with-toys reunion. ;D I just like to do things right, so I made up the trophies as I have done in the past. T-figs are cool and all, but TNT Trophies are the stuff of legend.

The T-Figs didn't arrive today, so I may have to ship them to you after the fact if they don't come tomorrow.

Then wash your upper lip. ;D
Oh, and after some Technical Difficulty, the Death Star is Operational! er.. the CPs are operational. While removing the battery pack I inadvertantly devastated the wiring on the prototype tube-style command post, so I had to redesign some of the wiring. Turns out that it was a good thing, as now the bulbs are bright as can be!
So, With that said, we're on like Donkey Kong!
UPDATE!!!!! The man himself sent the following:
From: Brett [mailto:NOY-FUB] Sent: Friday, June 08, 2007 5:49 PM To: superflytnt Subject: Re: SuperflyTNT's Tournament Of The Stars 6-9-07
Ok...so I'm an idiot and didn't mail that stuff today, thinking for some reason it was next weekend, your event. Grrr. Anyway, you have a Fett, Han and two Stormtroopers en route. Sorry for the delay!
So, I'll ship out the figures after the fact.

It's around 8:45 and we are just about to leave. Mapquest tells me it's a 2 hour 24 minute drive. I plan on showing Mapquest that they don't know what the heck they are talking about! ;D I might try giving you a call when I start getting closer. I usually get lost in trailer parks, they all look the same. ;D Figs, food, and drinks are loaded. Just need to add kids (all three) and my wife. ;D Good call on not calling her Mrs. Greyelephant. Even though you could call her G.E. because she does bring good things to life. See you guys at around 11:30.

It's 10:00 and we just got home.
Still licking my wounds, but had a good time. Sure was fun to be able to play.
I am liking the NSSD! Great concept! Only thing I would change is you get to start out at a CP instead of having to scramble to get to one. Other than that, I really loved it! ;D
Until next time..........
