Trading at HQ

by Crazy Ivan
Yet another sick day at HQ today.  Started off playing a few games of ping-pong with Monk and catching up on my blogging/social networking.  Looked for a moment like it was going to be a slow day but then Final Cut and Gold showed up and changed everything.

Luckily I had a few tradables with me because (of course) they brought some sick collectables along and were looking to make some trades.  Monk traded away a couple of his legendary TJPs for a handful of jammers from Gold.  I turned down several solid offers on my new Calvin and a Yellow Jacket.  We played a 4 way game of MYACH, some Myachi Ping Pong and a game of HORSE (you can't always play Myachi, after all) and just generally had a really good time.

While they were here, a couple of the local maniacs came in with their collections.

I always love to see Myachi Maniacs from different areas meet up.  None of these guys had ever met before, of course, but united by their love of rare Myachis you'd never have known they hadn't been friends for years.  Within five minutes, the scene looked like this:


Shown here are four partial collections, along with a few Myachis that Monk had brought along for trades.  The row of sacks at the bottom (the Delta Force, Candy Corn, Zoot Suit, Twilight, Dragstrip, Bubble Wrapped, Commando and... whatever that top one is) were all a proposed trade for a Tie-Dye Snakeskin.  After much brokering, the trade deal fell through, though several other big trades were finalized shortly after I snapped this picture.

Not sure what the point of this is except to say that if you ever make it to Myachi HQ, be sure to bring your tradables.  You never know who might show up with a tradable Black Belt.
