Already showing signs of a resurgence of my addiction to this game. Got my new roll up for my new team and noticed the due date for the arena I wanted is tomorrow. So I next day USPS overnight aired it to the PO box (didn't think they'd take a new team rollup via fax).
So, what is the likelihood of a whole new team rollup arriving on the day of the due date actually getting processed into the arena in time to get in on that turn?

I could be wrong, and I try to never think of it this way or else I'll put off 'til tomorrow <blah,blah,blah>, the arena runs the day after the due date. So don't use it to think you have an extra day but ...... I give you a 50/50 shot!

I think you have a better than 75% chance of success but fear I may have just put the Kiss of Ben on you and we don't even know eachother that well

I didn't intend for it to be the last day. I finished the rollup on sunday and then just happened to look at the last newsletter for the arena, and went "crap!". So we shall see what happens. Either way, getting my check to them so I can order a few more team rollups and old team overviews is a good thing.
Well, at least it appears to be a gentle kiss....

I think you can fax in rollups ... the control number prevents them from using the same rollup sheet twice is my guess. I have faxed in replacement warriors with no problem.

Depends on how the ladies are feeling. I have had faxed replacements rejected with a big :You know better!" comment on top.

the kiss of Ben apparently failed. I made it into the turn (as confirmed by the newsletter.. went 2-3 which is not surprising with the oddball rollups I had. Look forward to getting the fights pretty soon

When I came back after a three-year hiatus, I didn't even have to look up RSI's address.
