I want to believe you'd let stores/customers know when they intended tournament stuff to go out. we're a little over a week away from the first(only?) stores store championship being run that's been announced (by the store itself given) and we have literally no info outside of that store saying "hey we're doing the SC this day because ffg told us we should have the kits by then...".

I've been to Game Cafe, it's an awesome store and the guy that runs it/the tournaments is amazing ( I played him last store championship when i was very green, my first tournament, and he was great to play against). So at no point do I fault them for putting their announcement out there and FFG's twitter confirmed the kits were kicked out a week or two back so I'm confident the article is coming "soon"™️.

Ugh, I'm ranty today.

Why do that when I’d be able to change people’s member tags to “kicker of positivity puppies” instead of arguing with them ? ?

That was me. Yeah we got it less than 3 days before the tournament

I got pics out the day before.

FFG really dropped the ball here. We'd have dad way more people had they not allowed a national holiday weekend be the day we hosted... And the fact that NO ONE knew what was in the kit until the DAY before the first regional event was sheer BS.

I've said it before and I'll continue to reinforce it as long as you continue being: you're awesome, ty for putting stuff like that up. FFG couldn't be bothered to actually post the "this is what the kit has" article until a week after that tournament. If it wasn't for people like you contributing to the community we'd be in even worse shape than we are currently, Thank you Darth

I'd wear it with pride. Those puppies need to be exposed to the harsh reality of FFG's stepchild position that we reside in and I'll do my part.

Honestly, that shook me harder than it should have. Thanks man. I put work in because this is the game I always wanted to play. Since I was 8 years old playing X-wing Vs Tie fighter wishing I could control the whole fleet. It's hard work sometimes, and I do get VERY frustrated with FFG for their side of the BS, but it pays off. I enjoy the people of these forums, I love meeting y'all in person, conspiring to design useless peripherals, or just plotting janky fleets.

Best of all, with the little work I've put in, I now have a very stable regular gaming group. It's all I can ask for.
