Hey all!
Thanks to aciddragon for the heads up; I've been out of commission on the boards for a few weeks and he reached out to let me know about this board. Ironically, last night I finally started going back to the boards I've been neglecting to catch up; Matty's was on the docket for today. I am loolar on fwoosh and MC, and so here as well.
With the demise of DCIE, I was really disappointed and didn't want to wallow in the negativity. However, another big reason for my hiatus was MOTUC. During the subbing period, I had decided to go ahead and get a MOTUC sub. One reasons was getting the 4H Kickstarter birds, and thinking the various Snake characters would be perfect antagonists.
Once I started researching the line, Matt K's excellent photo essays on thefwoosh had me hooked - that guy could photo an egg and make me want to collect it. Check out the "year in review" posts they did for MOTUC 2009, 2010, and 2011:
200920102011warning: side effects include foolishly deciding to collect a new lineAs a result, much of my time has been spent collecting data on what fair prices are (yay spreadsheet OCD!) and scouring ebay and trade boards to back fill a collection.
However, the bank account doth protest, so I'm on enforced hiatus from that, so it's time to spend my time chatting instead!
