Anytime someone ends a sentence with the word "rough" within earshot of me, there's a very high chance that I'll reply with, "Rough? Just the way your mother likes it, Trebek!"

Quoted for emphasis and as a sign of agreement.

The OCD guy didn't show up today. I guessed that his shoes came untied on the way in and he was still tying them but his dad called to tell us he's sick and in the hospital.

Eh, I'm fairly certain that both the Mods and the people reacting to the Mods think they are not "over" anything. It's about one's specific point of view.

Is Hair10 negative, or is he standing up for all of us?

I'o'know.

What I do know is that it's a matter of perception. My perception is that the way many of the Mods handle this kind of stuff is so poor that any reaction to it cannot be considered "over"reacting.

So, BudPalmer DID kill your father....from a certain point of view.

Hair10 is a hero, and you're not worthy enough to hold his name on your tongue!

I should go to GD and post:

I wonder if I'd get points?

My hip really hurts today. It's OK if I move it like an old-school Star Wars figure. But any G.I. Joe-type movement hurts a bunch.


The Kung Fu Grip... it does nothing!

I stay away from pretty much everything on here except for this thread, the units section (which I am addicted to), most of the preview, and the Long Box/comic accurate/etc type threads.
Okay, the occasional "Hello" Lionel stalking does happen also.

But this whole ROC emphasis, and the new expansion of it, makes me sad. This new level of emphasis on competitiveness, to now include local region results going into a points rankings system? Ugh. Pretty soon the casual games and players will be relegated to fond stories, secretly gathering in quiet places to play a game of favorite characters fighting somebody else's favorite characters, while the Meta-blaster- resource-dial-team-base overlords look for new victims...

A big Joe or a little Joe.

Little Joes did not have Kung Fu grip.

I've been doing this already for years.

I don't give a rat's ass how many times someone on here goes off on me for being "discriminatory" and "offensive" for using everything from social cues to blunt statements to let some Power Gamer know that my venue is not the venue he's looking for.

The price of liberty and all that.

We had to do this with a guy during the course of F-Itself and I just met a new one this last weekend.

"Play our way or get the hell out" is the message I'll send. I'll send it with subtlety and politeness at first, but then. . .

There are plenty of ROC-prep Gyms out there. Find one.

We have a "CSM Guy" now where I play. he used to attend sporadically, now he's there every week. He is INCAPABLE of not metagaming, regardless of the prize.

I still own an old school Vader with the plastic cape and retracting lightsaber. Tip of the saber is a bit worn but the cape is in great condition, along with the paint job on the figure.

I have: Greedo, Hoth Han, X-wing Pilot, Hammerhead, and Death Star Droid.

they're still pretty cool.

Agreed. They ARE still pretty cool.

The only other figs I still own are Booba Fett, Chewbacca and Wicket with all their respective items.
