How are we doing this for USA? Do you want us to pay for it now and then reimburse Sundevil for shipping? I don't live anywhere close to Iowa.

Ok Guys, Firstly humble apologies that I've been quiet, I had a few horrid issues to deal with that kept me from updating you.

As those of you who were at Thrudball will know, I was NOT happy with the Reroll Counter's Bottle Opening abilities. True, if you persevere, it will eventually open a beer, but not before a drunken man would give up and bite the bottle top off instead...

It's taken me nearly a fortnight to try to work out why, it turns out the process to make the counter inadvertently rounded the biting point on the bottle opener... plus I've been wrangling with the best way to deal with this...

Sadly the suppliers covered themselves with a disclaimer so I'd have a real battle on my hands if I wanted to get them to remake these. Hence I've been looking into whether it's possible to rework the Biting Point to fix the problem. Turns out it can be done, by the guys in the tool room where I work, as they are pro's and I'd trust few others with this - but there's still an aesthetic impact that might put some off...

Below there are two pictures of a reworked counter. I need to get a consensus from you all as to whether the rework makes the counter less pretty? Please could you ALL (even those who have had their counter) let me know whether you'd rather have an ineffective bottle opener or a reworked one that does the job? I will get the rework done and reimburse any postage costs for those of you who want to send their counters back for rework (not like anyone has actually complained yet, but my OCD won't let this lie, and I want to bring you a product that works if I can).

Frank, I believe most people bought these because it was a charity price rather than for the functionality, they are probably being mostly used as re-roll counters....

So, that's a "no" from me!?

TOs! You do not need multiple copies of rosters. It's a waste of paper.
