Am I the only one these guys can't seem to find? I was told the dice were mailed in march (right at the end of the 10 weeks), it's now june 23rd? is Canada really that hard to find, it's a big place, just keep going north, it's bound to turn up? The only person there who responds is the guy who runs the leagues (seems like a nice enough guy). is Leadership that bereft that they can't respond?  |

If it is at all possible, the best thing to not wait for the dice! I have got my sets from the NAF organizers who show up to the tournaments I attend. Ben will be at the Challenge of Q'ermitt in a couple of weeks, and Cyberhare runs the Deathbowl which takes place in Montreal in October. Last year I paid for my NAF dues at the Deathbowl and got my dice handed to me.
Try to see if there is a tournament in your area that you can do this and save the headaches. |

| Hmm...being on the west coast there are very few tournaments I can get to. So I sit and wait for the package to be delivered. |

| hmm...let's see getting to the border is an 8 hour drive...then the drive through canada. It wasn't a dig on Canada merely the distance to the tournament. |

Ok, as I understand, membership packages are produced in batches ( By Cyberhare in Canada I think) not as soon as someone joins. Everyone volunteers their time, so printing, packaging and posting takes time (as does answering countless "where's my dice?" queries). If you can't get to a tournament then please just remain patient and give a little thanks when finally they do arrive.
I do know that the NAF pres has computer trouble at present and has no access to mail. Try Brian as he should be distibuting the american packages. These guys all have jobs and families and give what time they can to running the NAF and they resond to being given a hard time in the same way as you would |

| I understand the difficulty of task that needs to be done and that we all have family lives too. From what I have been reading is this, if you want to get your package early or in a timely manor try going to big events, usually all of them far from where I am. If you can't make it to the events then wait at least 4 months for delivery. Right now I have been waiting exactly 7 months since I renewed my account. At some point in time this does become unreasonable. |

Perhaps try PM'ing Cyberhare and asking where your package is. He is probably the best person to be prodding - although I don't want him flooded with everyone's PM's asking "Where's my package?"
It will be interesting to know if yours is caught up in the 'lost package' that the postal service lost between Canada and the US. Cyberhare has those details. |

The Apocolypse challenge takes place in Calgary, it was a blast this year and should be even better next...
There are rumours that there may be one in Edmonton in October as well (nothing official yet though ) |
