I'd do it like an interviewer. Then I'd go for a beer with him.

In all seriousness, there's probably a nda and a list of things you can't talk to jervis about anyway.

Sorta like that news interviewer on V, without the chance that Jervis is an evil space alien.

PRecisely none of you I'm willing to bet.

Not as much fun when they are can answer you back, is it?

Oddly enough, I'm much more polite to people on the interwebs than I am in "real life".

Same here. I realized today: Dakka members can be quite different online than in real life... Not a bad thing, just an observation... That is all.

You missed a rather epic game tblock, probably one of the most balanced games I have played.

I appear to be louder online eh? , I am a rather quiet guy until I get into something.

Did Tblock meet Wrex?

Me is confused.

Stopped by one of the local gaming clubs to say hi... and I did. I actually had an internal chuckle at that one.

Next time we will get a game in I am sure, perhaps in two weeks, possibly next week. Not sure my eldar are going to enjoy taking on a horde of orks... FLAME THROWERS... these are not the flame throwers you are looking for...

As long as he picked up the tab, I wouldnt care. It would be pretty cool IMO. I wouldnt bust the guys balls on anything really. Id ask about the good ol days and tell me some of his "whats the weirdest encounter youve had so far" type of things. Those are what I care to ask lol.

I can tell you the guy that does Space Ghost coast to coast (his voice) is a total jerk off, but his fav episode is the one with Micheal Stapp (from REM) and he likes it when women want his signature on their boobs.
And the guy that played Carlton on fresh prince of bell air, said Will smith is a pretty nice/funny guy, and he him self was super nice. My buddy and I sat with him and ate lunch with the guy. How cool is that.
SO Jervis, would be added to my list of useless but cool info

For the record, I misread FITZZ... I think of myself as more polite in real life... But I am like Wrex, quite until engaged. I was kinda a different person yesterday... Not the loud, crude, fething random person I usually am when around Kirsanth and Co...
BTW, I hope Geoff's artillery didn't rough you up too much... How did the game go?

I wish I could have stayed longer, but I did enjoy my game of Gorkamorka/40K. A lot! I have never been so proud to loose to a 3 yr old.




Next time I go back, I will have my full army and be able to play for real. Two weeks sounds good. As you may remember me saying yesterday, Kitten likes me to spread out my gaming time away from the family. And after last Tuesday's epic D&D session that I sprung on her at the last minute, and spending 5 hours longer at Endgame than I promised the Saturday before, the only way I could come was to take Zelda. That was incredibly awesome, but I had to be in Daddy mode all day. Next time... Next time there will be glorious bloodshed and my orks will om nom nom on crispy speesh elfs jerky

I should perhaps clarify my statement, it's not that I'm particularly "rude" in "real" life...(though I have been accused of being a bit "harsh"), it's that,in general,I tend not to become all that argumentative over the interwebs,as "typing" my "rage" at someone hundreds or even thousands of miles away seems a bit pointless to me.

Sorry FITZZ, didn't mean to flip it that way. This was the sentiment I was agreeing with before...

FITZZ wrote:not that I'm particularly "rude" in "real" life...(though I have been accused of being a bit "harsh")

Except I do enjoy debates on the intarwebz, and being a fa/tg/uy neckbeard, I tend to slip into nerdrage easier than most...

It's all good tblock, just wanted to clarify what I initialy ment,no appoligizes needed man

And I too can enjoy a good debate via the "webz",it's when it goes to the point of insults and such ( and I'm sitting there thinking " well,this guy is entirely too far away to punch in the head") that I gracefully bow out.

QFT!

I would thank Jervis personally for the newest CSM codex for 2 reasons.

1) I actually like it better than the 3.5 piece of gak.

2) I know how much nerd rage it would cause when Dakka found out Jervis got congratulated personally for the current CSM codex.

That alone would be worth the dinner.

Ok, I am now going to paint my wolves and win the tournaments, just so I can hit Jervis with a Ham.

Also, nice to see you talk about me as part of your social lives. I feel speshul nao!

I would. But I am just an donkey-cave in general.

I don't mind admitting that I'm (a little bit) more polite in 'real life'. But then, people are a little bit more polite to ME in 'real life' so...

Swings. And. Roundabouts.

QA testers are a pessimistic lot, always complaining and looking for the worst in something. This means we are usually rude, snarky, and tend to be walking HR violations... You are like a God to us...

And lo did the Gwar did common from on high: "Bring me a Ham Sandwich!"

Oh get off your high horse and give the preaching a rest Grotsnik.

Hell, if I could get away with it, I'd order a vanilla pie, and immediately have it thrown at Jervis, stating

"So I guess you don't like vanilla either, you bastard."

That's for the CSM codex.

But, however, Mad Doc has a point. I'd probably just hope to enjoy JJ's company (If such a feat is possible)

Perhaps because I think in strange directions, what I want to know is whether or not I'd get to pick what's for dinner. Forget the conversation.

I mean, could I choose Quaker Steak and Lube's hottest wings? We're talking 150,000 Scovil units there...just pain on a bone, really. Maybe make it a competition...first person to quit eating wings has to publicly admit they were wrong about the CSM codex and LatD.

Or maybe something exotic and from the sea, just to see who'd turn green first. Sea cucumber? Jellyfish?

I'd offer to sell him my CSM army "since I can't really use it anymore"

I will smash your face into a car windshield then take your designer, Jervis Johnson, out for a nice seafood dinner and never call him again.

I always imagined HBMC toilet-papering GW's front lawn and egging the staff's cars while Gwar was dropping some stinky brown trout in all the toilets without flushing and stealing the toilet paper........
