A little birdie told me. Something good.

Post by kevinbastos »

So, I went over to the LCS today. He had four. Yes, FOUR shot glasses for me. And apparently, it was only half of the ones he had. Apparently he had eight - and then proceeded to text his wife. If any folks from the convention read here, he wanted to say gracious thanks.

He also showed me the Harbinger Wars clock. Thirty-four days! We checked. He told me he couldn't let me have it. Yet. He asked someone... Atom!? Maybe... About what happens when the clock runs out. He was asked if he heard about C4...

Then a laugh.

(And this is where it gets interesting....)

Then he says a word. One word. Yes. THAT word.

A word that should excite us. And also make us nervous.

Yes. Didn't heard it here first.

Which word? I can think of a few choice ones.

Sorry I'm slow on the uptake. :oops:

My LCS gave me four shot glasses.

He didn't give me the clock. It was suggested....

That the clock might be used again. A new face might be added....

To count down to something else.....

And that is where the word comes in.

Brainstorming...

Movie?

Crossover?

TV Show?

Video Game?

(ok, not one word, but you get the idea)

Future?

North-Am?

Erica?

Birthquake?

Death?

Acclaim?

Armorines?

Timewalker?

I'd guess it could be reused for HARD Corps, but that's two words, not one. I'm at a loss... :?
