So... Which one??!?!?!

I went with #3. Two of the 10 were already spoken for. Of the remaining 8, this one spoke to me the most. They don't know what color is going on what body, so I guess it'll be a surprise. He said I could always change to a different remaining body if the color mine got wasn't to my liking. I'm flexible.

Thanks, all I could think of was 'low wind', figured it was something like that, thought it safer to ask.
 
This one's going to be mine. (Hopefully!)

I'm really bummed about the color thing. I LOVE 2 of the 5 colors. So I've got a 40% chance!!

Do you feel lucky?

Yea, I was a little surprised when he told me that about not knowing which color was going on which body. But, I'm REALLY good with 3 of the colors, and ok with the other 2. Fingers are crossed! o_O
 
Dusty, why not "albernwegführer"?
Because it was supposed to sound vaguely like 'Obergruppenführer'? One of the things I enjoyed about the television take on Man in the High Castle is that they took the time to say Obergruppenführer every. Single. Time.

Although I applaud the reference, I don't consider myself a führer of albernwegs.

You mean like Obergruppenführer' Freitag? from Hogan's Heroes?
That's where I learned some German from. ;)

So there is a flip side to this; how about selecting the color and not knowing which top you are getting...that's the leap of faith I took on the P245 WL run. Which turned out KILLER by they way and I did end up with one of the two tops that I really liked.

I get it though...it's the same process that they go through on the production floor; can't stain a yellowish piece of maple blue and expect a true blue, more of a green-ish blue. So they match the color with the appropriate wood undertone to achieve the desired results.
