Are you speaking of Mistress Death?

Does anyone actually know what happened to Muncho?

He has not posted here in 2 weeks.

Every book I have read since 1996, and a listing of all my comic trades

Yeah. He said he was taking a break from the LPC. He's still about on the Realms I'm sure.

The universe will break. Shut the engines down. Everyone you love dies. Fight to save everything.

Ok, who has gamer funk and is running people off?

Do not make me give away sample deodorant, like I did at Origins in 2004.

I think he turned into a Pop-Tart and started pooping rainbows as a method of propelling himself through space.

This reminds me of a message I sent to vlad a couple of years ago...shortly before his first big clix event.

Quote

You asked for some help with team building (rather, opinions on your ideas). As I said, I can't in good conscience do that as I'll be judging the event, but I can give you a few geneal tips to help at a big con.

1) Your build sheet is your life. You MUST hold on to this to avoid DQ. If someone walks away with your sheet, even accidientally, there's nothing I can do. You will be DQed. I suggest going to Staples or Wal-Mart and getting one of those plastic binder inserts into which you can place a sheet of paper. Put your build sheet in there. Get a piece of string and tie one end through a hole in the sleeve. Tie the other to yourself. You don't have to go with your wrist, like some Bond movie, as that could interfere with gameplay, but I would recommend perhaps a belt loop.

2) I don't know about food and refreshment at the facility. Beef jerky is gold! I've already picked myself up a huge bag at Sam's. Let me know if you'd like me to grab one for you. (Jack's Links - Original, Teryaki, or Peppered)

3) Binaca or other breath spray. It is amazing how one can subtly spray this on those around them to mask gamer funk.

4) Bring a watch or cell phone with clock...not a stop watch to time the game. If you end early and wish to run to the restroom or something, you will have some idea of how much time you have.

5) Do not talk to anyone except a judge or your opponent during the games. This is very important. The other players will watch for it like a hawk to get the easy win. I once had to DQ a guy for speaking with a bystander. (Side note: I felt a little bad afterwards when I found out it was his brother giving him an update on their grandmother's pacemaker surgery, but rules are rules.)

6) Bring a change of clothes, especially underwear. I know it sounds silly, but you will get swamp ###. Having a change of drawers will allow you to keep your mind on the game. Your opponent, on the other hand, will be sitting there with a sweaty butt-crack in the back of his mind. Small advantages like these will give you an edge.

7) The moment you have anything suspect happen, do not hesitate to call a judge over. Stalling is a big one. You stall all the time so you should be able to identify it if it happens to you. Someone you know on HCR had issues at GenCon. He didn't call me over until there were less than ten minutes left in the game and said that he'd only gotten two turns in at that point. That's a little late. One never knows, but I think his team could have pulled out the W if he'd said something earlier.

8) NEVER take your opponent's word on a ruling you don't believe. I can't tell you how many times at GC someone would come up to me between rounds and ask for a ruling on something. When I'd say what the rule is the response would be "Are you serious? I thought it worked like that, but my opponent said it worked the other way, so I believed him." Your opponent is there to get himself the W, not you.

The best part of this was that the event ended up not having team sheets, but the head judge knew vlad had gotten the above list.

Right after vlad won his first grinder, the head judge approached him and asked to see his team sheet.

The look on his face when he thought he was about to be DQed was pure gold.

That is a good list.

I would add to it a change of shoes. Never wear the same shoes 2 days in a row to a Con, Disney etc... Give them time to dry out.
