    Kirby had 0 intentions of letting up because Kirby was in on the take ftw. I’m not a conspiracy person but there’s just no way all those players played for love of the scrimmage

    Saying they would have beat us anyway is just not good enough. Horseshit and everybody knows it.

     

    Apologies, I don’t understand what you are saying here.  What does “Kirby was in on the take” mean?

    And I am not sure what you are saying in the second paragraph? What is horseshit?

    I like to think a full-strength FSU squad with 80 chips on 80 shoulders would've gone in pissed off and looking to make a point to everyone. They still probably would've lost but they'd have bloodied Georgia's noses in the process and gone out on their collective shields.

    This feels like the end of the road for Norvell. He had a month to motivate his kids into a better place, keep the band together and show the CFP how wrong they were for the snub. Instead you got a cavalcade of aight-imma-head-outs and an island of remaining misfits who played like they'd rather be in Gaza. Or possibly Chyna. Either way, he/they got exposed to a biblical degree and I can't see why any top recruit would commit to a program that shit the bed as badly as they did under pressure.

    The loss of Travis was significant for FSU of course.  But with that much of your talent being assembled via Portal and NIL payments, Norvell had to know he had a group of rented mercenaries who would likely opt out of a non-playoff game.  

    On the other side, though, Kirby was definitely sending a message to recruits.  Between the FSU NIL strategy and reports of significant amounts of tampering with UGA players, Kirby had zero intention of letting up and it showed.  I know personally he likes Norvell.  As a competitor in recruiting for south GA prospects, Kirby used this game to send a message to future recruits.  It was both savage and intentional…

     

    ETA: Even had everyone played for FSU, this still likely would have been a UGA 30 point win…

    I just did the pledge manager and it was over $600. I need to narrow it down.

    edit: those update emails were out of control near the end, with almost hourly messages about unlocks.

    @Jiji and anyone else who backed this Reaper Bones KS, have yours arrived?  I didn’t add the pirate ship and now want it so going to add with the Pledge Manager re-opening.... otherwise,  my miniatures arrived this week.  Now gonna take weeks to assemble them all lol

  4. Yeah it’s been around for a bit and has a sequel or re-release or whatnot that was on KS maybe two years ago?

    I haven’t played it personally but there are a few recorded sessions you can watch where streamers played it.

    I think the consensus is that it is a solid RPG although more an alternative than a main game for groups...

  5. Haven’t confirmed myself yet but apparently WOTC is releasing D&D (AL mostly) content on their website for free to provide entertainment during social distancing time.

     

    about to check it out - saw article on io9... article claims a nice mix has been released already with daily additions...

    The new Colville book is on Kickstarter and the minis they have lined up for the are fucking killer.

    My kids won't get a Christmas this year.

     

    Those minis do look incredible, but $1000?  Damn.  That is approaching Kingdom Death pricing...

    Zombicide 2nd ed. is also up on KS.

    Haha, I just backed it this morning. Thanks! I'm confused by the set up. The Greek and Japanese sets are not part of the $120? Said something about $50 core sets and the descriptions didn't really make sense to me. 

    KS just ended with an incredible amount of minis to choose from now.... I am concerned I might be in for like $400 lol

    That image of Rock looks like they accidentally motion scanned Al Pacino having a heart attack and transplanted it onto Rocky's face


    I’m still trying to figure out why Hogan has 46-DDs in that screenshot?

  9. So Gable gets the Shorty name for his intro AND proceeds to go undrafted.... yikes

    seems like they could have just done 5 rounds and had Cesaro, EC3, etc. get picked instead of being FAs because neither side saw them worthy of being selected, thus totally de-valuing them.  If they setup a storyline for someone who was undrafted to prove his merit I would get it, but we all know that ain’t happening...

    Correct, the $120 is just that box that says core set - I think the minis are numbered 101 - 214 plus the others in that same box.  Anything labeled Options or Expansions are additional or replacement purchases you can choose.

    Basically you can back for $1 or $120 right now.  The advantage to $120 is that is more money towards unlocking the locked exclusives and add-ons.  As with all KS, you will  be debited the pledge at the end of the campaign.

    Otherwise, it doesn't really matter.  What will happen is you will get access to their backerkit where you will choose what you want to buy.  You can buy the core set for $120, the expansions for $50 each, the options for their prices listed, all plus shipping.  You choose everything you want and it will tally your cost for you.  Then if you backed for $120, you will already have $120 credit toward that cost.  Otherwise, you will have to pay the calculated amount and then in like 18 months they will start shipping and you will receive.

    A long time to wait, but the core set for $120 for at least 120 miniatures is the best price per Bones mini you are ever likely to see, including ebay deals.

    Hope this helps.
