Well Bad proved once again how much of a dirtbag he is. He Muscled his way to a first place victory leaving the rest of the players crying and cleaning their underwear. 600pts = 2 Vet Icons Superman, 2 Fortitudes, 2 Protecteds, 2 Paramedics, and an Earthquake to boot! What's next, kicking them in the ribs when you miss an attack roll!?!
HAHAHHAHAHHAAHAHAHA.
Mike. Dude. You are such a "dirtbag". LOL That' "two" evil.
I don't want to play a game of chess where dumb luck or money decides whether or not I get to use a rook... Collectibility is a necessary evil of Heroclix, not a boon.
Minor Venue Report:
Nova Blast is definatly Tits. I have a feeling Don will ban that card for next month. With all the restrictions it is the most powerful mechanic available. I ran a Nova Blasting Polaris, Ben ran a Blasting Empress. Two weeks ago we both ran a Nova Blasting Brainiac and Ben also had a Blasting Empress on his team. I have a feeling we'll be seeing this for a while.
I went 2-1 and so did Ben. Only lost when the Blast failed. I missed Tim's Phoenix by 1. Bye, bye game. Agh! My archnemesis gets me again! Altough my Con Artist did Crit Hit Songbird!

What the hell does that say about myself and Mike!?! Where is the rep love from our teammates?!? What is going on with this game?
I'm going over to DreamBlade. They pay me for winning.

Kinda got lost for a while, Lucky ended up redirecting me here. I thought the Vegas thread got decimated for the 'Screw Fellowship' ways and the rebellious nauture Vegas brings to the table. I'm pleasantly wrong.
But man! all this Nova Blasting and I'm here in the Desert with Big Pink Nimrod, no one used Nimrod for that scenario though? that's weird.
I'm catching up on this thread, and now I'm just really jonesing for some clix. I'm already trying to get more figures while I'm here. Somehow, or someway. I think getting a 2nd Oracle WILL suck. And I think Getting Robot and the GG TA card will kind of suck as well, as I'm making, yet another, front loaded team...but with Robot and Dr. Light. Still building the Professor X 'LAMP' team....but more out of novelty, and just to try it out. I'm gearing a little more toward the Robot team...and REALLY hoping that the new Surfer is exactly 200 points or less (with Cosmic TA + Transporter....only one can hope)....I just want another excuse to use Ambush Bug.
Who has sprung for the Invincible set? Knowing you guys, I am going to assume just about everyone, as a wild shot in the dark.
And who in Vegas is using Madness? I thought fun feats weren't allowed?!
Good to see everyone in Vegas is still in complete competitive spirit.
Afghanistan is hot and everything is still intact. And I'm definately getting some new clix while I'm over here. I don't think I can wait for that till I get home
As most of you are aware, there has been some trouble with the status of Dreamland and it has caused problems with getting prize support. Well here is a more expanded version of the situation.
About 5-6 weeks ago the status of the venue was changed from "active" to "retired". This prevented me from signing up for new approved play events and having prize support sent. All I was able to find out was that WizKids recieved "a report" that Dreamland shared the same address as Kools. Since then I have been trying to resolve the situation.
The problem is that I cannot get any kind of response from WizKids. I have sent them a dozen emails with only one response being sent back. The response was short and cryptic and brought up more questions than it answered. In the email was a phone number to call. I have called and left over 10 messages with no return phone calls. The final step I took was sending an email to every email address on the WizKids website. It is posted next.
This is where we stand now. Thursday's tournament will be the last one held at Dreamland Hobbies. Due to my complaint emails and the final one I sent I do not see them reinstating Dreamland's status. More importantly, their treatment of me has really turned me off from the company. I don't want the hassle of them anymore. I have one final tournament to judge, then I am taking a break from Clix and WizKids for a while.
So lets give our venue a proper Team Vegas send off thursday!!! We'll have beer and pizza and party because we are the best damn Clix player's in the country!!! We'll send her off in style. She derserves nothing less.
This is to inform the company of the final tournament
at the venue Dreamland Hobbies. The status of my
venue was changed to retired approximately 5 weeks
ago. This was done based on an unsubstantiated report
that was not investigated at all and without
notification to the venue owner or the primary envoy.
Since then I have been unable to contact anyone at
WizKids about this problem. My emails and phone calls
have gone unanswered.
This is no way for your company to treat a quality
venue of 4 years. It is a very disrespectful way to
treat an envoy of 3 1/2 years who happens to be the
first ever Wizard World Invitational Champion.
Because of this myself and my players will no longer
be playing this game on the convention level and
myself and most of my players will no longer be
purchasing product of any kind from your company.
Losing only 10 players may not seem like a big deal to
the company, but if that is your attitude, there is
something very wrong with the leadership of WizKids.
If you feel the need to discuss this situation
further, you may call me at (702) 524-3933.
Hey Roland, good idea for Thursday. Between Sinister, Dreamland being retired, and playing at Kool's with a hangover, I'd rather just play at your house. Considering that work will probably dictate that I never play at a Con, being a competitive player almost seems like a waste of time. I am a sad panda now. :disappoin ...Not Tits
This is indeed grim news. First my free high speed internet goes away and now this. Truly, my heart is heavy.
We as a collective whole are losing so much more than a venue. We are losing the gathering. We are losing a tradition. We are lost. Perhaps most troubling, are team is lost. It's true, we will continue to see each other, yes and, there will still be get togethers and Fridays (hopefully not at the island) and friendly exhibition games. I'm sure there will be all that and more. And yet sadly, it will never feel the same, nay!, never be the same. We are giving up something precious of that, do not mistake.
There is no more team Vegas. There can be no team without a home. So as of this Thursday, after the final game of HC I give up my team membership indefinately or until we find another home, and as such, am retiring my hat, ID and signature. It's been a fun ride and you guys are the best Heroclix players in the world. I would like to thank our beloved El Capitan for putting in 3+ years of hard work, dedication and love. It would not be possible without the man and his consistant leadership, guidance and unquestioning friendship. Kudos and job well done.
