Re: Dragon Tales and OOTS Game Status
Yay, found mine arrived today. It was a lot of fun.

Re: Dragon Tales and OOTS Game Status
The delivery status for mine has been "in transit" since yesterday. I really wish I was home right now, or coming home tomorrow or the day after or the day after, but at least it will be waiting for me when I finally get there. Unless the post office messed up again this year and lost our request to hold all our mail, resulting in my book being out on the porch in the rain... well, we went and asked them in person this time instead of doing it online, so they can't blame anything on computer errors. I'm sure it'll be fine.
Ooooh, I'm so excited!

Sheriff of Moddingham: Another post removed from the thread. Please don't turn this into a pre-order vs. GenCon dispute. I explicitly requested that people drop that line of argument days ago.

Re: Dragon Tales and OOTS Game Status
Can we have a spoileriffic thread for those who have their books and read them? Mine won't arrive until at least next week.
Yeah, it wasn't in the box and that parcel wasn't even for me.

Re: Dragon Tales and OOTS Game Status
My group is interested in the 4e OOTS. But I am going to stay spoiler free until mine arrives.
And The Giant quoted me.

Re: Dragon Tales and OOTS Game Status
I just finished reading Dragon Tales and I would be happy to
nerdgasm and gush about itspoil some things. The spoiler thread will be on this forum, right?
Preliminary: While the whole book is hilarious, there is a gag in the 4th Edition section that's pretty much worth buying the book for by itself. One thing is very notably missing in the Dragon excerpts, but since we paid for this maybe we canextortrequest the lost panel from The Giant via forum post?Last edited by DreadArchon; 2011-08-03 at 06:51 PM.

My books are in Houston. What's the deal with international orders if they get stuck at customs?

Re: Dragon Tales and OOTS Game Status
My copy arrived today, and I cover-to-covered it as quickly as I could. I'll probably go through it again after I do the same thing with my copy of No Cure For the Paladin Blues that came with it. I am definitely happy with my purchase. However:
I second the call for this! I won't say more since this isn't the spoilers thread, but it seems strange to mention that there was an alternate panel for that comic, and then not include both versions.

Re: Dragon Tales and OOTS Game Status
The alternate "lost" panel is the one that is in the strip. I restored it to the way I intended it. The original had no speech balloon at all, and the character with the crown is pleasantly smiling rather than gloating.
I'll post the original that was published, but there's basically no joke in it.Rich Burlew

I have posted a sticky thread for spoiler discussion of the book, along with a poll about which parts of the book you would consider buying as a full product: http://www.giantitp.com/forums/showthread.php?t=210107

Re: Dragon Tales and OOTS Game Status
Sweet, got my copy. Post office bent it almost in half trying to shove it into that tiny little space(instead of just putting it in a parcel locker >_>) but I can fix that. Now to get to reading.

Re: Dragon Tales and OOTS Game Status
Unfortunately, I fully expect my copy to be one of the last ones to arrive, since I'm in the UK and thus on the wrong side of the water for quick delivery. That, and I still have had no transit email, so I'm definitely going to be among the last of the preorders. But then, I'm a quick reader.

Re: Dragon Tales and OOTS Game Status
Same here: Europe, no transit email.
But I fear I don't read fast enough to catch up with the lucky ones ;)

Re: Dragon Tales and OOTS Game Status

Re: Dragon Tales and OOTS Game Status
Received the email saying it's being shipped, but when I checked the tracking website, it says that there's no info on it, not even the "Electronic Shipping Info Received". Hopefully it's on it's way and not lost somewhere. In any case, it'll probably get there before I do.

Re: Dragon Tales and OOTS Game Status
Mine arrived yesterday and it was hilarious. You don't have to be up-to-date reading the OOTS comic to enjoy it, and it doesn't contain any spoilers for the main comic. Definitely worth the price and the wait.

Re: Dragon Tales and OOTS Game Status
Apparently I'm still left in the dark since I ordered a copy of the game as well. I don't suppose anyone else that ordered the game has received a shipping email at this time?

Re: Dragon Tales and OOTS Game Status
Mine arrived today! Unfortunatly I don't know how to get in touch with my friend that I ordered a second copy for any longer. His phone doesn't work, the comic shop he worked for closed months ago and I don't know his address. I will try going to the local Discgolf course on Saturday and hope he shows. I hope everyone enjoys thier copy and that they arrive soon, admittedly "soon" when talking about overseas shipping is relative. Now to switch over to the spoiler thread.

Re: Dragon Tales and OOTS Game Status
I'm getting kind of nervous...A lot of people seem to be getting their books, but I've yet to get a shipping e-mail, nor a reply confirming that they took notice of the change of address e-mail I sent...
