Warmachine Weekend 2014, Statuses and Info

Friday, 4:10 p.m. status

Morning Activity.  John woke up earlier this morning to get in line for the store at Warmachine Weekend to open.  It pre-releases some exotic models that will not be out in some cases until next year.  He was able to get a bunch of troll models for himself as well as some others for friends.  I'll list them later.  However, because of difficulties with the line and getting his card to work, everything took too long and he had to drop out of the Last Chance Qualifer (LCQ).  I was heart broken.  However, he said that it was a stressful tournament and his back was still sore and he was stiff from the drive, so it was ok.  Now he could play in all the other fun tournaments.

Some Games.  John has currently played in one Scrambler and won 3rd.  Stephen, Max, Alan, Walter and others are still playing in the LCQ.  Brian is playing in the Iron Gauntlet.  The two caster tournament that Brian always played in and won has been retired.  We joked that maybe it was due to his ownership of it.

Getting over Cold.  I was exhausted, so after lunch came back up to the room at noon and rested / slept until 2:26 p.m. Took more advil, as by then I had a 99.1 fever.  John came in and we did a quick walk around to see people's games.  Now, I'm back up here, probably going to watch a movie in bed.  I'm trying to rest as much as possible to get better faster.  I think I did a bit too much yesterday.  I really want to avoid doing that at all costs the next three days.  That I still have a fever, however low, after 1 week is insane.
