Hi All!

I have good news and bad news. The good news is that my Coffee company has seen a huge upsurge in orders this year to the point that I have almost 18 times the orders that I had last year -- it means that we are making great money and obviously doing something right. With several companies giving out our fresh roasted coffee gift-baskets there is more work than I could have hoped for this time last year.

The bad news is, that as the boss and owner, it falls on me to get stuff done and I really have no spare time to play this game until things slow down and there is no way I can spare the time to go to mechcon. So, I cancelled my reservations and resign myself to watching on a live feed while I hover over a fiery coffee roaster.


That is GOOD news for someone here because I have 2 tickets that I am willing to give away to someone who can make use of them. This is NOT first come first served. I will PM the person I choose who posts below, get you to provide me with an e-mail address and I will send you the PDF with the tickets enclosed.

So if you post them, ask
(I don't think it would be appropriate to advertise my company here -- sorry )

I'm not interested in your tickets but I would like to congratulate you on the apparent success of your business. It's not easy to make it as an entrepreneur.

Not interested in tickets but it is nice to know your business is going well. We had some hard time this year but orders were filled at the end of the year too.

Have to concur with Mole, congrats on the success of your business! I've already got my own ticket but, <.o. for being generous to the community with your change of plans good sir!

[CFC Conky]

Very kind gesture on your part nehebkau, congratulations on your business success. I'm waiting to see if I have to work this Saturday before trying to buy tickets on Friday.

Good hunting,
CFC Conky

Can I have coffee instead?

I'm actually not a coffee drinker, but I'm sure I'd get more from it than those tickets (I have friends and relatives who love coffee but don't care about Mechcon either).

[Bohxim]

Grats on the success of your business! As someone who drinks coffee regularly, really glad to hear that! Maybe one day I'll manage to find your coffee consumption! (maybe pm me the name and I'll keep a look out for it! )
As for the tickets, not gonna try for it, but I hope someone who really enjoys the game and not toxic gets it. Cheers

[Commodore Perspicuous]

What is the name of your company? I would love to support a fellow player and refill the silly coffee mug cockpit items.

[Chris Lowrey]

Sorry to hear that you won't be attending OP. But on the flip side, congratulations on the upswing in your business. Hope you enjoy the stream while your busy running the show at your work.

*PS I don't need any tickets

Looking forward to see everyone that is going this weekend.

[UnofficialOperator]

Congrats on the business

[Bud Crue]

Congrats Neb on the upsurge in business. PM me and I will gladly order coffee from you and yours (I'd say post here but some mod would probably ban you for advertising). Alas, no interest in the tickets, but the offer is appreciated. I'm sure one of us fellow marks will take you up.

[Cementi]

Cool gesture, also not interested but only cause I cannot also afford the flight or drive for that matter.

[BoldricKent]

Thumbs up, Neb !
Still wish you could attend..

[Kotzi]

Chapeau! Thats very generous. (not participating)

[Wolf Hunter]

Congratulations on your business success.

I would be intereseted in your tickets.

[Appogee]

Congrats on the business success!

Espresso is my other hobby, so good on you for bringing correctly roasted whole coffee to the attention of the misguided Nespresso heretics.

[Juodas Varnas]

Congratulations on being a successful human being! (unlike someone like me, hahaha)

I'm not looking for the tickets myself.
I live across the ocean from Mechcon and couldn't really afford the trip to Canada.

[Spheroid]

You should send them to NGNG, they would cast a larger net for recieptiants via their webcast than this forum.

[Davegt27]

I vote Taragoto

As a coffee lover, I'll buy some - I'm not enamored with the Italian coffee here, and I'm getting tired of the dirty looks I get when I order a Caffe Americano. PM me the info and minimum order for you to agree not to kill me if we're on opposite teams. Just kidding about that last part. Sort of.

No way I could attend the con though, too many geographical considerations.
