I am having a special guest this weekend! And this one's a special friend of everyone!

Let's hope for the best.

Anyone wanting a extra neat phone call should be tossing that number in my PM box as per the 'I promise I'll call thread' I started.

Oh ho ho.

We're up for hijinx.

Finally got off my ass, and finished something to satisfaction. IM if you want the full sized shit on anything you see me post.

I take too much time drawing shit.

Alright, Fable II won me over when there's a character named Old GREGG

Just got done watching Speed Racer (2008) from XBL fresh of Chamber's recommendation.

Holy sweet creamy shit.

That movie was like a Popsicle for my eye balls.

I am glad I tossed down the extra 120 MS points or whatever for HD, because that movie was ridiculous.

My only complaint? WAY TOO MANY FACE WIPES.

Dear god, go pick the fucking thing up and watch it.

It's silly, fun, and colorful.

You'll be tasting the rainbow in no time.

I just blew like 3 hours to revise the old game, however, that's set finally. Left the game away from where I could work on it.

Now I have to add about 100 random personnel. (Sorry J, but they are fodder, so there's nothing to them) Thankfully, I've got the names down already(I'll discuss how I got all of them later), I just need to spam them out and create filler.

Create the rules set on paper for everyone else, print, playtest, and ship back out, and we should be all set.

I'm gunning for Q1 and I am deeply hoping that this is all good on my end, and it just keeps getting better and better.

You guys will love this shit. PROMISE.

Hold on to your dicks, it's going to be swell.

We're getting past ALPHA, now it's Beta time soon enough. One last hurdle, and preproduction starts.

Also sorry for being all vague and shit.
:)

All of my hard work comes down to the actual playtest now for green lighting.

If the cards don't wow them, I'm prepared to bribe them.

The Game Whose Name Cannot be spoken just got finished doing a big alpha playtest with a crew up north.

It's terrible not locally having anyone around to do this shit, I wound up driving 3 hours to squeeze a few games in.

Everyone had lots of fun though, and could handle learning it while drunk so that is a very good sign.

The proper crew for the Beta Test though will be getting it drop shipped later this week.

For now though, sleep and lots of it as I'm terribly tired from this week.

I've been doing 90 hours a week between both jobs, and I'm so close to being able to getting back to 8 hours of sleep vs 4.

For the first time in a long while though, something I have started will be seen through, and I am proud that the quality I felt I put into was worth my time.

I truly hope that everyone else agrees when/if this comes out.

The Story So Far....

It was noon, and six hours later, around midnight, a stranger rolled into town on the back of a giant robot otter (a robotter as it were) and declared all of the world's land his own! Both sides of the current war immediately beat the hell out of him, but no one can agree whom owns what any more, as someone spilled beer all over the map. Everyone does agree whomever owns the most and choicest pieces of land probably has a cock that is huge.

You either grab some land, or grab some cover. This is war, and you don't need to compensate when you have a full clip.

500 proto cards will be in my mitts tomorrow, and with Sunday off, look's like I may very well be doing some playtesting with folks veeeeery soon.

Total Cards 205

Players 2-5 roughly... we'll see. Should have a private play test ready in about a week with some local friends, then shipping it off for the big red rubber stamp of fuck off die, or yeah okay workable.

Love this industry. <3
