16:37 | < MittenNinja[phone]> | heyo |
16:39 | < DeathZero> | Yo! |
16:39 | < DeathZero> | Sup |
16:39 | < MittenNinja[phone]> | not much. how bout yourself? |
16:40 | < DeathZero> | same, hangin out round the house watchin my son. fiddlin with these little kreo microchanger transformers. |
16:41 | < DeathZero> | they look cool in their vehicle forms. I think I'm going to have robots in disguise parked around my battlefield. lol. |
16:42 | < MittenNinja[phone]> | haha nice |
16:43 | < DeathZero> | there's a few that didn't look so good, I'ma try to find a way to use their parts for weapons for my Gundam squad. |
16:46 | < MittenNinja[phone]> | i seem to be the only one not drinking the gundam kool-aid |
16:46 | < MittenNinja[phone]> | i just never got into it |
16:46 | < DeathZero> | I think I might have kicked that off when I built my gundam mini-frames |
16:46 | < MittenNinja[phone]> | possibly |
16:47 | < MittenNinja[phone]> | ive always been a battletech, heavy gear, front mission guy |
16:47 | < DeathZero> | I do like those series, but Gundam was my first mecha love. |
16:47 | < MittenNinja[phone]> | mechwarrior 2 was mine :) |
16:48 | < DeathZero> | cool |
16:48 | < DeathZero> | btw, been enjoying seeing your blog going again. good reads. |
16:49 | < MittenNinja[phone]> | thanks man. |
16:50 | < MittenNinja[phone]> | theres been a decent local following here in denver and i think its kind of revitalized my drive to write again |
16:50 | < MittenNinja[phone]> | in fact i may have a regular mfz night going at one of the local game shops soon. |
16:50 | < DeathZero> | sweet. I still have only found 2-3 people here in Indy and they're all too far away to play regularly. |
16:51 | < DeathZero> | hoping to get together with Wiking again sometime soon and play. |
16:51 | < MittenNinja[phone]> | nice |
16:51 | < MittenNinja[phone]> | yeah i was bummed i couldnt make it to gencon this year |
16:51 | < MittenNinja[phone]> | hopefully next year |
16:52 | < DeathZero> | that'd be awesome |
16:52 | < MittenNinja[phone]> | you should see if you can make it out to the denver comiccon next summer. |
16:52 | < MittenNinja[phone]> | im trying to organize something big for it |
16:52 | < DeathZero> | That'd be nice, but I do good to have the money to goto Gencon and its in the same town as me. lol |
16:52 | < MittenNinja[phone]> | for sure |
16:53 | < MittenNinja[phone]> | there is a chance that josh will be coming out for the comicon. which would be friggin sweet |
16:54 | < DeathZero> | question, have you managed to get extra copies of the book for selling at demos? |
16:55 | < MittenNinja[phone]> | i wont have any for the demos im running this fall, but thats more due to the fact that i would need to pay vendor fees to be able to sell stufd |
16:55 | < MittenNinja[phone]> | there is a local store that is carrying it though, so ill be able to refer people there. |
16:56 | < DeathZero> | ahh, well if you do come to that, me and wiking ran an idea by Josh at one point |
16:56 | < MittenNinja[phone]> | if josh can come out for comicon we will see if we can get an table in the vendors hall |
16:56 | < MittenNinja[phone]> | what was that? |
16:56 | < DeathZero> | we were talking about setting up a demo somewhere and getting cheap usb drives and loading the rules pdf on them to give away. |
16:56 | < MittenNinja[phone]> | thats a great idea! |
16:57 | < MittenNinja[phone]> | im pretty sure there are printing companies that could even do them with the mfz logo on am |
16:57 | < MittenNinja[phone]> | dont know how much thatd run though |
16:57 | < MittenNinja[phone]> | thatd be badass |
16:57 | < DeathZero> | that'd be cool, probly cost a good little bit though |
16:57 | < DeathZero> | hadn't even thought of doing that, neat idea. |
16:58 | < MittenNinja[phone]> | depending on how much it might be worth it |
16:58 | < MittenNinja[phone]> | just for the advertising aspect |
16:58 | < DeathZero> | yea |
17:00 | < DeathZero> | I'm looking up some places to do that now |
17:00 | < Brody> | And the cool looking flash drive aspect |
17:01 | < DeathZero> | http://www.encoredataproducts.com/custom-printed-usb-flash-media/bulk-custom-pri nted-flash-drives/?gclid=CIqvwPmA9rkCFeYWMgodujcA5Q |
17:01 | < DeathZero> | that looks about the cheapest option |
17:03 | < MittenNinja[phone]> | so minimum youre looking at $600 |
17:03 | < MittenNinja[phone]> | thats for 100 |
17:04 | < DeathZero> | looks like it, most places it looks like hundreds of dollars for a set. |
17:04 | < MittenNinja[phone]> | how much are non printed ones? |
17:05 | < DeathZero> | I could buy a pack of like 5 at the local frys for 10 bucks or less at 1gb sizes. |
17:05 | < Brody> | http://www.premiumusb.com/catalog/bulk-usb-flash-drives_8.htm |
17:07 | < MittenNinja[phone]> | you definitely dont need more than 1gb |
17:08 | < DeathZero> | yea, could probably go as low as 128mb even |
17:09 | < DeathZero> | still gonna be a bit of money if you want 100 or so. |
17:09 | < DeathZero> | part of the idea we ran by Josh was selling them for like 2-3 bucks a peice to cover most of the cost of the drives. |
17:09 | < Brody> | Depending on how much space there is, you could even include some community designed frame instructions |
17:09 | < DeathZero> | that's just a thought though |
17:10 | < DeathZero> | yea, that was another thing we had thought about including was frame instructions. |
17:10 | < Brody> | 5 dollars would be easier. Its a flat bill, no change. |
17:10 | < Brody> | And covers most of the cost |
17:10 | < DeathZero> | would be, but I was going for as minimum a cost as possible. |
17:10 | < DeathZero> | even 1 dollar a stick would help offset a good bit of the costs if you can get rid of all that you take. |
17:11 | < Brody> | Yeah, I just hate having to make change. |
17:11 | < DeathZero> | lol. |
17:11 | < Brody> | True. |
17:11 | < DeathZero> | another idea to brand the sticks! just hit my head, get MFZ logo stickers made |
17:11 | < DeathZero> | and slap em on there. |
17:12 | < DeathZero> | could be cheaper than buying custom printed sticks |
17:12 | < DeathZero> | especially for somebody that has a printer capable of that. |
17:14 | < MittenNinja[phone]> | absolutely |
17:14 | < MittenNinja[phone]> | stickers would be great! |
17:14 | < Brody> | But on top of the cost of the flash drive, would it be cheaper to just buy pre-printed ones? |
17:14 | < MittenNinja[phone]> | the only issue with charging for them is that if your demoing at any organized con, they will require you to pay vendor license fees to sell anything |
17:15 | < MittenNinja[phone]> | which can be hundreds |
17:15 | < DeathZero> | ah, that sucks |
17:16 | < MittenNinja[phone]> | i know getting a vendor table at denver comiccon last year was about $600 for the smallest table they had |
17:17 | < MittenNinja[phone]> | im sure that with the cons success it will only go up |
17:17 | < MittenNinja[phone]> | the difference is that moat vendors are there to make money |
17:17 | < MittenNinja[phone]> | so $600 isnt a big deal if by you're going to sell |
17:18 | < MittenNinja[phone]> | around $5000 of stuff |
17:18 | < MittenNinja[phone]> | or more |
17:19 | < MittenNinja[phone]> | for our purposes, we arent there to make money, were there to get the word out |
17:19 | < MittenNinja[phone]> | best bet is to partner up with a vendor and work something out so that they can sell the books/usb drives at their booth |
17:19 | < MittenNinja[phone]> | then you just send people there |
17:20 | < DeathZero> | that'd be cool |
17:21 | < Brody> | Or even have the flash drives next to a donation bucket? |
17:23 | < MittenNinja[phone]> | im not sure on if that would work or not |
17:23 | < MittenNinja[phone]> | but thats a good idea |
17:23 | < MittenNinja[phone]> | ill have to look into it |
17:32 | < MittenNinja[phone]> | im probably going to have 5 or 6 companies out at Feast of Blades. i didnt think id be able to swing that many and still have them look cohesive. |
17:32 | < MittenNinja[phone]> | could get two games going at once! |
17:34 | < MittenNinja[phone]> | three if someone brings their own |
17:45 | < DeathZero> | woot, sorry bout disappearing, got a phone call from Wiking. |
17:45 | < DeathZero> | looks like I may get to play again here in a couple weeks. |
17:47 | < MittenNinja[phone]> | nice! |
17:48 | < DeathZero> | yea, been itchin to play. |
17:52 | < Brody> | Where is Feast of Blades? |
17:53 | < DeathZero> | Probly Denver |
17:53 | < DeathZero> | I believe that's where Mitten's at now. |
17:59 | < MittenNinja[phone]> | yeah denver |
18:00 | < MittenNinja[phone]> | its a big 40k tournament and tabletop con |
18:03 | < Brody> | Next year I'll have to convince my wife we should go visit her dad xD |
