i got to beat customers and make them do some pretty insane things while running the speed painted compition...
but honestly, was it really that cruel to make people paint with their brush held in their teeth, while hopping on foot & spining in a circle with their eyes closed?!?!!

oh, and the free cake was a very nice touch too!

cheers!

LoL one of the 2 cool gw employees at my local one ordered a cake that cost 150.83 to tick the manager off.....it was HUGE and had the warhammer logo made out of white chocolet (Safe to say we where all feeling pretty damn sick after eating it) But i grabbed hairy the hammer since i figured why not he is a vampire if anyone asks..........Not to mention the 25th Chrome Dice just for the fact they can break models with there weight lol

As for Contests.

There was speed painting which i lost in due to i took the hardest to paint model...(but i got a free Old school vampire.......a goblin with 3 colors on it got first place even know mine was most detailed <.<

There is a raffle for the 250 dollar 25th rule book we all entered winner is unknown currently.

Last but not least it ended up as a 12000 vs 12000 point battle.........everyone vs one persons Dwarfs\Empire\Brits.....we got crushed due to both sides dispell dice nothing could be cast T.T and he focused all his fire on my count since i was the only one DOING anything. (Along with the wood elf player nexet to me everyone else basicly watched lazy $#(@s they hid there units)

hammers that people made had to be non-lethal! and keep in mind that re-decorated sledge hammers were specifically banned...
as a safeguard against abussive hammers, i got to test them on their owners...

btw, what GW store do you frequent???

cheers!

No...he will still be around for that, as for photo's none where taken. are speed paint was randomly left over mini's from there auction how ever. One kid got Marco Columbo, i got a nech Vampire, my friend took my vampires little ghost monkey. and another kid got a dark elf standered barrer of some sort\so on. So they where good mini's to pick from but to win you had to take one of 25 orcs or goblins to make it look good in time.

Everyone else's seems to be 100% better then the one me and my fellow local's got T_T

And the winner of the rule book was some random hot girl that doesn't play the manager to told enter *cough rigged cough* But why the hell put in people that don't play or ATTEND fantasy games at all and just want the book to sell?
