Hey everyone,
I'm looking for a copy of the HQ card game. I doubt I can afford a fair asking price, but I'd like to borrow one if you're willing to lend it. I intend to scan every card, the rules, the box, etc. at probably 1200 DPI and would be happy to return it once I have.
Why so high resolution? Because I'm not 1000% certain I'm going to produce skew-free perfect scans of everything the first go 'round. 1200 DPI is enough I should be able to correct that and still have things be about right at 300 DPI after I do so.
What am I doing with the scans? I'm going to use the artwork on a page about the card game here on the Inn, similar to the other resource pages it'll list all the bits, talk about how the game works, etc. Printable resolution scans of the cards … well, I'll put them in the Inn's archive so they'll be part of the backup YeOldeInn that gets made every day, so they won't get lost, but … for now at least I don't think I can risk putting up links to download them. If someone at AH/Hasbro says definitively the card game ain't coming back then maybe that'll get them posted sooner than later. But as always Hasbro's got a right to sell this game if they want to, and I'm not going to go out of my way to step on their toes.
I'd be willing to buy a copy outright if the price is within my means … but with zero copies available on ebay I'm pretty sure anyone who's got one isn't selling it or wants more than I'd be eager to pay for it.
I think probably I need to say US only … I've sent things internationally before, they often arrive intact if properly packed, but international parcel insurance is a difficult thing.
