What I don't get is how just basically being negative is in any way solving the problem or addressing the problem? Calling these people "incompetent" or basically insulting them (to me) looks like maybe the insulter has some issues to work through.
Seriously, people. Unless somebody intentionally tried to impede your personal fun or stop you from getting "what's yours", all this should be taken for what it is - your opportunity to roll dice and push little plastic men around on a paper map to get more little plastic men to roll dice and push around on a paper map.
So if the WK employees all just forgot to show up for work today, would that be OK? I mean, as long as it's not intentional, right?
Also it is worth noting that it happens every year. Pretty much the same thing every year. If it was something that happened one year and then was corrected the next year it would be another story.
Isn't that a problem though?
Shouldn't we all actively be saying things and petitioning/boycotting events until they can at least get their #### together to the organization level of a elementary school, student run bake sale?
Why is it "ok" just because it's happened before/is the norm. I can think of a lot of other issues, social to political, in which that's exactly the mindset that has stopped progress.
Like, they weren't even using cash boxes at multiple points. At one point I took a picture of behind their counter with a case box sized mound of cash that looked like it was all going to fall over and scatter at any second. If the air conditioner turned on it would've flown everywhere - I've never in my life seen cash treated so carelessly, which is a very good indicator of their level of organization - if they're that unconcerned about their own cash, they're not going to care about making it an efficient, well oiled event.
Yo, I had fun, relatively, but I really feel like I just got conned and hosed. I know I wasn't purposely (unless they're that genius and devious and it's their whole plan, which would be amazing lmao) , they're just that disorganized.
No, you're not being consistent with your attempt at reasoning. Omission is just as bad as commission. WK is doing the bare minimum to give the event some semblance of what players expected. How many people do you think would have showed had they known the event would be run like this?

None of the world's problems would ever be solved if everyone was complacent like you.

Well, tomorrow it will be my turn. I'm playing in Zombie Apocalypse. Here goes nuthin...
Seriously, as long as I can have some fun playing some completely random pull heroclix games tomorrow (a task in and of itself for me...not all that into sealed), I'll call it a good day. I am getting a free-ish Zombie out of the deal.
That's the opposite of what I was going for. It's extranot ok because it has happened before, repeatedly.
I would like to see this picture of cashpile. Just for the LOL value. Then so I can shake my head at it and say "oh man"
On my iPhone. Where can I upload it? I Took it specifically to post on HCRealms in the inevitable topic about Nationals and how, well, how it's how we've been talking about it.

Me? Complacent? You definitely do not know with whom you deal, sir.
However, I'm not going to back away from the fact that being insulting isn't productive...like. at. all. Call me "inconsistent" if you wish. There are better ways to get an issue across.
Yes, because the Wizkids event at a Convention is a first world problem.
Fixed that.
We get so whiney about our luxuries sometimes. I know I do. It makes me a terrible person to a degree. But I don't care. I will take some cheese with my whine if you have any.
