To Brent Or Not To Brent...

...that is the poll.

Since Fritz dropped the bomb on Bell the other day, I've been all over the place the last few days straddling the fine line of defending our choice of Footdar (FTW! soon to be trademarked... sorry Blackmoor!) and pointing out that I don't want to encourage kids to jump in the deep end of the pool by spending their lunch money on anything but tanks.

Dethtron over on his fine blog Penis Creep, a personal favorite lately for his uncanny ability to make people realize they say stupid shit all the time, noticed this...

...cause I told him...

...but he would have noticed anyway.  He's Big Brother with a dirty mouth except he doesn't just tell mom, he tells everyone.

I suspected he'd use the Footdar controversy for his always entertaining Friday Night Fights but it seems he was already locked in to another choice.  Still, he decided to give me my very own poll.

BRENT OR NOT BRENT?

So there I am, by myself with my pants around my ankles.

Go and vote, please.

Now.

Please go vote BRENT!

... 

You still here?

Okay, here's another thing I'm working on.  I asked Lauby about the paint scheme for my not-so-super-secret BoLSCon army and here's what he had to say.  I'm taking his advice and working on test models now.

  1. Congrats on all of the activity you've roused. Stay focused on your and Fritz' primary mission: Jawa/Goat demolition.

  2. I like the pic you just added to the blog. You should crop out the camera and put a thought bubble around the double aquilla, and you could be the poster boy for 40k.

    Also, that's a nice shirt you're wearing in the pic, but it looks like you just bought it and didn't wash it, OR your suitcase was packed WAY too tightly. (Sorry--just saw the new Sherlock Holmes movie, and it's got me fixating on small details.)

  3. Only you would notice that.

    It's from Chicago during the Hard Boyz finals. I spilled something on the shirt I wore and had to buy one. Obviously it's creased down the folds.

    Now that's going to bug me - I may have to crop it some more...

  4. Actually, in the photo, it looks as if you are just noticing the creases yourself and are mortified. That's the face people wear in the "I went to school naked" nightmare.

    I do get a certain sadistic satisfaction out of undermining the confidence of the fashion conscious. It's one of my guilty pleaures, really, and proof that I can be quite petty.

    To my credit, however, I do usually just smile quietly to myself. If you ever look over the gaming table as you are wrapping up a major victory over my forces and see me with a wry grin, just know that I am seeking consolation anywhere I can find it, even if in a mere crease!

    If a crappy outfit is all I need to win a game you can make all the dumb faces or jokes at me you want.

  7. "NET-stalking Jawaballs [emphasis mine]"??? How lame is that? I say we take a road trip and do this stalking thing good and proper! I'll be your get away driver. Surely a court injunction will only increase blog-traffic, right? (Besides, I wanna see his BA drop pod army.)

    And, Master Manipulator (every store needs one), you probably don't even need a crappy outfit to win a game agianst me. (After all, Brent has convinced me that I should be spending my money on a new Footdar army.) But if you ARE beating me in a game, I will be looking for other ways to enjoy myself, even though a laugh at another person is a poor substitute for kicking the crap out of that other person's mini's.

    And lest anyone think I feel smugly superior to anyone else, I don't--I know I'm ususally the most slovenly person in the room. I just couldn't care less, so I'm free to laugh about these things! :)
