Throwaway here. My heart is broken. I tried Mansions of Madness last year at another friends house and I liked it so much I wanted to introduce it to this local board game group that I volunteer for. I bought the game, got the organizers, and ordered additional expansion, dices to be shipped over to my country (Philippines). I was so excited for the people in the group to be able to try this game

So I’m scheduling board game night. I made a poll to ask people in the group when they are available to play and this “friend” added an additional option. - “NEVER”. I thought it was a joke. But it actually wasn’t. Nobody said a thing, Nobody said that it was a dick move. Only another person replied with a laugh emoji.

I asked the “friend” if he really meant what he said - and he said that it was a prank that he and the others thought would be funny - because they saw how excited I was and kept hyping up the game. So they let me purchase the expansions, the copy of Mansions (meant to be the groups copy), and the game sleeves and organizers because they had planned this CRUEL JOKE From the very beginning.

Time to move on and find a new set of friends I guess. I’m throwing away and deleting all the Halloween flyers, decorations that I made. Will be giving out the snacks instead.

But I’m keeping the game and not cancelling the orders! I WILL FIND NEW FRIENDS!!
