@ElementGames_ Hi hope you're well? What's the best way to contact you about refunding the Facehammer ticket. I responded to the attendees email on 4th and sent another since but haven't heard anything. Thanks

@Tom_Mawdsley @Jackwarmstrong @MrMaximusB Is piper ever worth it in the starting list? Most lists can't summon it t1 and t2 Beasts seem like a great summon option. He might help vs opposition double turn too?

@shropshiregamer Expecting big things ngl

[Simon Pickles @_Azindal]

@SconnieHammer @WHWeeklyTom But to claim somebody is an asshole for not meeting your preferred standards of painting, game knowledge or preperation makes that person seem like the asshole not the other player let's be real here. 2/2

[Simon Pickles @_Azindal]

@SconnieHammer @WHWeeklyTom You mentioned a few times mutual respect. Where is the respect for the newer player when the established player thinks you're an asshole for not being on their level? People can form expectations for an event and be dissatisfied with their games for whatever reason they like 1/2

[Simon Pickles @_Azindal]

@WHWeeklyTom 'You don't meet the standards of what i feel is appropriate to be at an event I chose to attend' is possibly the most entitled opinion I've ever seen. I know which of those 2 hypothetical players I think is the asshole. But an argument can be made that they both are 🤣

[Simon Pickles @_Azindal]

@WHWeeklyTom Thanks for clarifying. I can't say I agree that being forgetful or playing a new army or being new to the game makes you an asshole. But we all have individual tolerances

[Simon Pickles @_Azindal]

@elfordminis 2, I'm lazy and this looks half done already! Also it's an interesting mini

[Simon Pickles @_Azindal]

@WHWeeklyTom What classifies as being 'unprepared', lacking knowledge of yours or their army rules, general AoS rules? Not the correct gaming apparatus? Interesting take that those people are assholes 🤔

@ojay180 @AelvenPainter I attended a few WFB events that gave 40k stuff to last place, time has moved on since the "you suck at this game, try another one instead" era 🤣

[Simon Pickles @_Azindal]

@irons1de1 No idea, something to do with something some people said about something I guess 🤣

[Simon Pickles @_Azindal]

I'm guessing I'm following the right (wrong?) people, seeing lots of "ohh drama?" Posts and none of the actual drama.

[Simon Pickles @_Azindal]

@JDavenpott We shall bask in the blissful ignorance!

[Simon Pickles @_Azindal]

@sumpworks Well about 2 months start to finish, I paint around 3/4 times a week for 2ish hours a time, so around 60 hrs into these.

[Simon Pickles @_Azindal]

Realised I hadn't put group shot of the seraphon I painted recently

[Simon Pickles @_Azindal]

@sumpworks Thanks! In hindsight, if I had another 2000pts to do in a month for a tournament, I wouldn't be picking white again.. 🤣

@Curis Mine are:
Miniatures started painting: 87

Miniatures abandoned painting: 1
Miniatures purchased: 56

[Simon Pickles @_Azindal]

@AelvenPainter @itsNixon_ I ran 2x2 recently and they gave away 2 vp all weekend. Played vs Sons, OBR, DoK, SCE and a mirror. Other than the first 2 rounds the chances of giving away points are low

[Simon Pickles @_Azindal]

Just started assembling the 5k points of Maggotkin I purchased recently, Can somebody tell me why I'm already putting a Slaves to Darkness army in my basket..
