Delve deliveries

Dec 02, 2008 14:05:53 I'm not sure if this is a better spot or if it should be part of the WPN forums but I thought I'd start here.

I am concerned about getting Delves in a timely manner. I understand the delay that holidays can have on shipping things but I have yet to receive my Dec Delve kit (unless it came in today). My November kit arrived after my first event was scheduled (causing me to cancel it) and I have a Delve scheduled for this Sat and haven't received it yet. That's 2 months in a row that I've been getting the Delves late (or at least later than I would like). Other than a post on these forums, I have no idea what level the Delve is this month or know anything about it. I'll only have 2 or 3 days to prepare for the Delve and I try to have enough pre-gens ready to fill all the roles in a party. Is there any way to get the Delves out sooner? Heck, at this point, I'd be happy to just be able to view and/or download PDFs of the Delves instead of waiting for hard copies to get shipped to me.

Sorry, most of this is just venting but there is an underlying concern there. Is there a way to get the Delves earlier? Or even just some of the information (level, NPCs/monsters, etc) about them would be helpful.

Dec 02, 2008 19:00:48 The place I go to for delves tends to get the month's delve the day of the first scheduled event (a Tuesday). That's cutting things a bit close... I always have to call ahead before the first event of each month, just to make sure that they've received it.

Dec 03, 2008 16:43:09 What does it mean if under status it says not recieved? Is that my reporting or that I'm not getting my delve this month?

That means that it is now past the date of the event and you haven't reported it yet.

Other options could be "Future Event" if the scheduled date hasn't arrive yet.

Dec 13, 2008 13:41:44 I ended up contacting them at dci@wizards about my Delves. It seems there was an error in the generation of the shipping list and I was left off it. They corrected it and sent me a copy of the Dec Delve. And I somehow ended up with 3 sets in the process. ;)

Unfortunately, they came almost too late. I have 1 week-end left this month to run them. I needed to cancel the first 2 as I didn't get them in time and I need to cancel the last Dec week-end Delve due to a scheduling conflict. That leaves me 1 Sat to run them all. Well, at least I have the first week-end in Jan to use as a spill over date if needed as we don't have the Jan Delves starting until the second week-end in Jan.
