I'm doing 31 things
and I thought they would never get back together again but alas they couldn’t resist. They have come back for another tour! I cannot wait to see them perform one more time, LIVE, for me and countless other lucky bastards! I wish a friend of mine in particular could be there with me to see it. I think she would love it.

How I did it
It made me
ECSTATIC! 
How I did it: Used TIE online. Talked to friends in Egypt and did a lot of fact checking. Visiting also helped. Always kept up with reviewing my CV and resume. Asked for what I could do to improve on them. Used Linkedin.com to help create a resume online as well. Read how I did it…
It made me
Ecstatic
How I did it: Apply our game to Board Game Geek's website. Travel to different stores. Make phone calls to different groups to look at our game online. Put some of our own money out of pocket into it (not much thankfully). Get our friends to push this game to others they know. Word of mouth can be a very powerful medium. Read how I did it…

How I did it: Worked with some amazing friends and just kept faith in my heart. We worked for hours on designs, the feel of the game mechanics, standing in front of a mirror with the weapon and talked to countless people on how to improve this concept. Read how I did it…

For a while we plateaued at a little over $2,000. I was worried that we wouldn’t make it in time. With hard work, lots of phone calls, word of mouth, demos and pushing people who were interested but didn’t realize that there would be nothing without the goal being reached, we made it. Not only did we make it, we are over our goal by $800! Still 16 days left till our deadline. With people seeing the game is funded, more will now donate, realizing they will get something out of donating! It was hard work, lots of number crunching and lots of driving and pushing our hard work, showing people we have something special! EXCELSIOR! EVER ONWARD AND UPWARDS!
Here is a fun and fast paced game of strategy and heroics as two duelists face off and use real time strategy. This is a non collectible card game with a very unique engine and a limitless amount of directions we will take it. Please enjoy the video and see our demo on Kickstarter.com. William W. Refsland and Erich H Michel approached me with the info that they had put together a little company that is growing called MinMax Games. I said to Bill, “I have a game for you.” He grabbed it and helped me take it to the stars. With Bill’s engine and the direction we are taking this thing, I can’t wait to see where it will take us. Please take a look at it. I am so proud of us, we worked really hard on it. Spread the word, let me know if stores would like demos and let me know if you would like me to come to your house and run demos for you and your friends. We don’t need a lot to start, every little bit helps.
