TOPIC: Latest Token Update (They are almost here!)

<br />I bet nobody is even half-SMAK if history is any indication...<br />

<br /><br />I'd even go a 1/4 of Smak's order.  <br />

not me...25%-33% is a possibility  ;/  =D

<br />(whimper)<br /><br />Canada is so far away from Carbondale.<br />It'll be weeks before I get my tokens.<br />

<br /><br />It must be hard to get mail by sleddog.

ordering these tokens was the greatest idea in the history of the world? now i'm looking at a house full of fireworks stacked on top of piles and boxes of tokens. suddenly it occurs to me, the only place for the new tokens is on top of the fireworks. this could get all bad.  =|

<br />not me...25%-33% is a possibility   ;/  =D<br />

<br /><br />I'm with Bro, I'd bet there's at least one order in the 25% - 33% possible range, and another order in the 20% - 25% possible range - that's where I'd put my money at least  =D<br /><br />Still, I'd bet the Smakload order is probably as big as the next 4-5 put together, QUITE impressive! 

Mmmm what is with these exaggerated claims of token orders Smak? <br /><br />You didn't sell your other kidney to fund this year's tokens have you?

<br /><br />Raven,<br /><br />Just have Jeff send them to me, and I'll take care of them for you, and I'll drive up and deliver them to you.  I can see it now at customs. <br /> <br />"Do you have anything of value to declare?"  <br />"Just these shiny gems and gold--I better keep them."  <br />"Is there anything dangerous?"<br />"Just these swords and ...  Well I better keep them too."<br />"Are you transporting and pharmicuticals or illegal substances?"<br />"Hmm, I better keep these healing potions and the dwarven ale and rations."<br />Do you have anything else to declare?"<br />"I have some rope."<br />"You can take that in."<br /><br />So, Jeff, send me the tokens and I will take Raven her rope.<br /><br /><br /><br />Widseth

I'd love to be able to pick up my token order in person, but it's a 9-hour drive one-way.  Ouch.  Hm....My two-and-three-quarters-year old daughter has been asking to fly in an airplane....<br /><br /><br />

You will do anything to make your wee ones happy I guess.

<br /><br />Absolutely... especially during those nasty Summer Blizzards.<br /><br />But that's one of the reasons I'm so thrilled about this change to composite resin tokens. I no longer have to worry that the post man will use all my wooden tokens to light a fire, in order to keep warm (and/or roast a tasty Husky) if he gets caught out in the cold. Now, he'll just freeze and the resin tokens will be safe until the ice begins to melt, and I can go pry my order of tokens from his stone cold hands.<br /><br />BTW, Widseth - I really appreciate the offer of bringing my my rope, but I wouldn't want you to be the one caught in the blizzard with only resin tokens for company. Especially rope tokens. Now, A flaming +2 Longbow... that might be useful. At least you could send up a flare, calling for help!<br /><br /><br />

Also remember to be wary of mooses and flying hockey pucks!

When I was in college I did a research paper on US-Canadian relations.  It was really interesting, eh?<br /><br />Brian<br />
