Welcome back!
There are a few new faces and a
few that have dropped out. Tina will be taking Christiane's place;
Galen is stepping in for Randy; and Josh is making himself at home in
Willie's old spot.
I met Tina last summer at Origins. She was nice enough to
save me from myself when I dumb enough to bring peanut butter
M&M's...and nothing to drink to one of the Robo tourneys. Ice
water has never tasted better. Super nice lady, this one.
Galen was at GenCon last year and played in some of Mark's games
and my pick-up games. He's been on the waiting list longer than
anyone else so that he can wait even longer for me to actually finish the
darn turns.
Josh is from here in St. Louis. He has been coming up to
GenCon with Mark and I for the last 3 years. He's already in one of
the pics I put up from last GenCon. Take a look in the page if you
haven't in a bit. (I've added a few new pics...well, not really
new...but they weren't there, before)
