No joke, work-related: I had a PDF scanned and then emailed to me as a .JPG, asking for a signature and for me to fax it back. Except they didn't print off the PDF and scan that, no... it was a screenshot of the document printed off. ... Then scanned. It had the browser header on it and everything.
Casey Garske - Oy...yeah... I've had to deal with that one, lol. I had an adjuster who sent me this Word document they got from an insured, and it was like 6 images all piled on top of each other on one page that I had to sort out.
Where did it all go wrong, Casey? I can’t pinpoint it, but it was already too late when they remade 3:10 to Yuma and took a movie that was mostly two men talking about morality in a hotel room and put in a Gatling gun.
This is my gaming circle minus my ACKS players. I am such an asshole. Since they're in the big city now, the players really wanted to know if there were any magic weapons for sale. ACKS ain't 3e or 4e though. There is exactly one magic weapon for sale. I rolled randomly to see what it was and... ...it's a cursed -2 sword. So I told the players there's a weapons dealer/fence who's looking to get rid of a magic sword he's gotten ahold of...cheap. Only 6,000gp when usually a +1 item would be 10,000gp. So far they are not suspicious. They're going to be so pissed at me. I can barely contain my excitement.
This is only the tip of the iceberg of the madness I have seen.

ReplyDeleteI've had this exact thing happen to me. Though I got it back in the form of an MMS on my phone. WTF people, twf.
ReplyDelete"Could you print this out, then scan it to me?" Actual thing I get a request for every week.
ReplyDeleteAlso, when I see "Sent from my iPhone" I brace for insanity.
You have my stapler...
ReplyDeleteBetter than someone sending you photos in a Powerpoint file, lol.
ReplyDeleteI have had the "screenshot pasted into Word" version.
ReplyDeleteOr instead of just emailing you, they save it as a Microsoft Publisher file and sent it to you as an attachment.
