I seriously believe that if Goodman Games printed up 100 copies of Tomb of the Blind God with the Otus cover and the North Texas logo, that they could sell 100 copies - really it is only 25 people who want to buy 4

Easily done with stickers (think gold sunburst with the logo custom printed in B&W) and prolly cost-effective too.

guys: providing i make the trip (still very hopeful), i will be around after the con anyway, not making the huge trip there for a few days when i can hound mike to death for a week

i might as well write something up and then after or whatever, the guys can get together and i will run a game.

i cant come over without at least having one opportunity to scare the crap outta mike and set john on fire again

Are we nearly there yet?

Think that Badmike and Foul would let me cast up a "Giant Shrew" as an Acaeum official miniature?

NTRPGCon Exclusive....

Al, I would be all for playing in any game you DM, at any time.
Why settle for setting ONE John on fire when you could have two? :lol:

I must admit I was envious of the guys (Mike and John) talking about the fun they had in your Tegel Manor game.

I would purchase a limited Giant Shrew Mini too...

I'd be kind of surprised if Goodman Games made an official appearance - they have about a half dozen other cons that they visit during the year - but I've been chatting up the con with Harley Stroh to try to get him to come, too.

And as for a special module with the con logo on it - now that's just too cool of an idea.

They might sell 150.....seriously.

I would do my best to make sure both of you are lit on fire at the same time..... :twisted:

In my defense, I set a SEVERED arm of the Revenant on fire.....it's not my fault it crawled on John's character to re-attach himself...

seriously though: the look on johns face when mike lunged at the arm and set it alight is something that i will treasure forever. it was truly one of them "moments" that make a game so precious for me. absolute classic stuff.

but yes i will get onto writing something up. something pretty obscurish and in my usual fashion, so a large adventure on 2 sheets of paper

Are we nearly there yet?

2 page dungeon? Cool. I'd like to see that. Map + notes, I assume.

Those who can, don't. Those who should not, do.

Seriously? 150 copies? There's, what, 48 attendees. That's barely over 3 copies a piece! :wink:
