I dont mind anyone handling my figures, its all part of the game, although i object if his player actually physically blocks one of mine 
as for dropping a fig from a great height?? I'm not sure what i've have said  |

i would find i take pride in a team i have painted. if they aint in a juck paint job then they often play worse than unpainted figs (could just be paranoid)
Painting is a bit like food presentation - often not needed but well worth the effort. It would suck if someone complamented my team and i did not paint them |

I went for 'I started painting a team about half a year ago....' as i'm slow and never seem to find the time to paint my teams, but I wouldn't get someone else to paint them for me. Eventually I plan to have my teams painted, it's good to have goals  |

I'm having a memory...
RE: Handling & Physically Blocking Figs...
let me preface this by saying you'll only truly appreciate it if you've ever put together the Khemri team yourself, or watched someone doing it.
I was the Khemri playing at Meifaxis' place when his lil' snotling comes up to the table. "Bwudbowl bwudbowl" cute as hell... picks up one of my mummies, "ooohhh" Then makes like Collossus and serves up a fastball special right at the pitch. Flying Mummy Vs. Skeletons...  ...Mummy wins, and skeletons (only 2) shatter. This particular instance was so funny (and he's such a cute kid) that I couldn't get upset. Definitely a future blood bowl fanatic. He now calls me the Bwud Bowl Guy... how can you get mad at that.  |

well, I'm pretty defensive of my models and also don't like them being handled by others, especially if they are eating, smoking or I know them to take a piss without washing their hands afterwards.. 
sorry, I don't care who I offend, but I don't like having someone touch something I took multiple hours to get right.. I was beginning to calm down on this until last week where a guy snapped a spear tip off a converted Ogre and looked at me as if it was my fault for converting it in the first place... stupid b'stard! 
also, while we are on the subject, I don't like kids, I don't think they are cute and I don't want them near me or my models... I am always surprised to hear that some of the people attending tourneys in the US are younger than 16... I can only think of one guy in Europe who attends tourneys who is under 24.. 
anyway, before OMM retracts that place at TKC2 I'd better stop ranting... |

that'll be me... ( I think..)
I'm 17 years old and quite care about my minis ! if someone would even dare to throw any of my gobos through the hall I'm not responsible for my actions ! I would be very very very mad !!
and I'm also alwayscareful with other models, only once I've asked a guy to be more careful with my minis ( it was on my skavens) he was losing and had quite some bad luck and then when he finaly got the gutter down he almost threw him of the table with his "real life block" on the gutterrunner...
I don't like the idea of younger guys not tuching your minis but I can understand if most of them realy are like that..

o yeah.. and I paint my own teams.. (if you didn't understand that allready..)
Don't see the point of buying a painted team unless you don't like painting yourself or just can't.
when you buy a team to just use for display is just waste of money and takes up space from my room which isn't big anyway..

Where's the option of my wife paints them for me? I'm a horrible painter, but I sure like playing. She's a horrible player, but she sure likes painting (and is pretty good at it). And as an added bonus, she doesn't charge me very much.
That's my vote. |

| LOL, I apologise Gertwise, I did leave out that most vital member of the hobby team, the long suffering partner. Mine deals with my website issues, I deal with painting for my client issues. It's a happy compromise |
