Okay, the Gremlins are popping up! lol

Sorry Einion and TML, it\'s become too late for the main event but.........

How about this, for everyone involved...

Editted List:

Wargriffon send to Pitynoman
Pitynoman sends to Jahecker
Jahecker sends to TML
TML sends to Einion
Einion sends to Starfall
Starfall sends to MarkusTay (me)
MarkusTay sends to Wargriffon

Everyone on this list please let me know, either in this thread or via PM. I\'d like to thank Jahecker and Wargriffon for helping out here... we\'ll call it ME4.5 lol

I had a major Post Office day today, mailed packages out to Marineboy, TJeffers, and Frenchkid. Sorry I was a little late Jerome and Tom, I didn\'t make it to the post on Monday. I wanted to put postcards in all the boxes, but I didn\'t have the time to find any. We\'ll all have to do that for ME5.

Thank You again Trevor for volunteering to fix that little problem with Paolo. Everyone has been incredibly helpful in this, thank you all so much.

I got my minis from TJeffers yesterday! I got several very nice pieces, including a DRAGON and an incredibly cool mini of a woman lounging in a dragon claw throne. I loved them all, and will post pics tomorrow, but I think I\'m going to do that lounging lovely first... and I\'m painting her hair red in honor of RedDawn and her fantastic lounging skills.

;)lol

I\'m good with the ME 4.5 solution.

I will pm my sender with address, and will look forward to hearing from TML with address.

If noone minds and I\'m not too late yet, I\'d really like to join, too. Would that be okay?
This really sounds like a lot of fun.

I editted the above list to include you, Starfall, no problem.

But after today it\'s definately too late to be in on this one. Anyone else will have to wait untill ME5.

Yay! That\'s great. ME 4.5... Very nice.

May the minis be primed? Do they have to? Do they have to be unprimed?
Any other rules?

The miniatures SHOULD all be bare metal, not primed AND DEFINATELY NOT painted. It doesn\'t matter if they are new or old, in a blister or in a burlap bag, but they should always be in the condition you got them at time of purchase. That means if it came primed, like old Mithril did, then that\'s Okay, but it shouldn\'t be glued together either just in case your exchange buddy wants to mod it. Thanks - Mark

P.S. We will wait until Saturday to hear from Wargriffon, he is probably off saving her majesty\'s realm or some such. If we do not hear from him by then Pitynoman and others, then we will just go on without him and I will send to you Pity.

I\'m thinking of having an offset mini-exchange for late comers like I did above, maybe have a second exchange list posted three weeks after the first from now on... I just got to work out the logistics on that, could be tricky...:rolleyes:lol

Edit:Besides Wargriffon, we will also need to hear from Einion before we can do this.

Hmmm sorry about that Markus (but to be honest it was the fifth figure to get thrown in the box - and the others were new. I didn\'t think it would matter.) Also for the next round - maybe include that bit in the rules as I didn\'t see it even when I just checked. I had assumed that it could include old \'unwanted\' figures even ones that sat in a bin from ages gone by.. lol


peace :D

Sorry...

I didn\'t mean to come off all nasty or anything, I had assumed everybody knew the basics... and we all know what happens when we assume... lol

It\'s no problem, really. Technically everyone is supposed to send one, and if they want one alternate in case the first doesn\'t tickle their fancy. But you need only send one, so as long as you fufilled the requirment for the first one or two I suppose no-harm no-foul.

I just don\'t want anyone sending a single painted mini out, especially considering how out of hand some people have been getting with their generosity... I got a dragon for Chrisakes!

And on that note, I don\'t want this to turn into a competition to see who can be the most generous. CMONers tend to be an un-commonly generous bunch, and I\'d hate to see people having to mail off twenty forgeworld models just to keep up. One is good, two is better. Anything more then that is up to the sender. :D

Ok, I took a picture of him before he\'s finished. I haven\'t even looked at how well, or how poorly, the picture came out, at the time of this posting.

But here he is. My ME4 Orc Shaman dude from leopardpixie... WIP.
I know, he needs lots of touch-ups, and the base hasn\'t been touched yet, at all.

He looks already nice, Naukhel. If you - as you said - continue painting him, that\'ll surely be a good paint job.

How do you send your packages? At the moment I\'m trying to find a cheap service to send mine - however the best yet costs about $16 with DHL... Does anybody know a better solution?

Do you mean UPS?
I had the costs calculated on their website and it was more than $ 100... plus fuel. I think that is a little bit too much.
