I swear, the #fabtcg community largely spoils us.

Watching Riftbound coverage makes me actually not want to play the game.

…. But why?!

Yeah pretty much all this.

Met a lot of wonderful folks, had some good hangs, saw some great games being played.

Turned shiny cardboard into other shiny cardboard.

It’s times like this where I don’t want nerdy winter camp to end.

Appreciate you, #fabtcg folks. See y’all at Columbus. #fabphilly

I haven’t exactly been paying much attention to what has been happening with the big events this weekend, so I’m taking tomorrow off of events to be social and hang and meet folks.

Looking forward to finishing the Tuffnut bling.

(Pls sell me your Dig In packs.)

This is where my mind went immediately, tbh.

The convention center is most definitely in Philly.

So here’s a pic of an old guy and a neat card.

Keynote time!

While I don’t exactly play as much Gravy these days, this was a bit of a grail piece for me.

That’s it - I’m done - I can go home now.

Are there any shops in the area that sell bulk stuff? Could use a couple of things that are totally in a box I didn't grab on my way out the door. :)

Made it to Philly after a busy half of a workday and barely making the flight out.

I ate my limit for dumplings for the moment, but I will have to try again sometime this weekend.

And I guess I should finally put together a SAGE deck in paper…

I'm a little late on the #fabtcg sleeve drive bit, so here's the update. :)

I am donating $5 to NAMI (www.nami.org) for each sleeve I'm missing. My current total is at $70 based off of the sleeves either mailed to me or given to me at local events.

(cont'd below)
#fabtcg Started a fun little collection a couple of weeks ago.

Individual sleeves instead of the sealed boxes.

I will put out a list of what I’m missing when we get closer to worlds, and I’ll be donating to a charity for each missing piece folks help me get. :) (Used sleeves will be welcomed!)

We are firmly in Tuffnut November now.

Time to get back in the lab.

Finally dumped Windows for good.
Everything works until I haphazardly ham-fist my way through vim and break stuff.
And I have to backtrack, uninstall a package, reinstall, restore the wrong configs, create a backup of -those- mistakes, and start all over again.

no sarcasm, i love this shit. :)

#fabtcg The duck race told me to play Verdance so I played Verdance at a PQ today

Dead in T4 to Prism, but we managed to complete the Overcrowded playset.

Sorry that I couldn’t help y’all with LL points. :)

Good times otherwise - can’t call it a loss.
