Date: Tue, 28 Jul 1998 13:46:58 EDT
Okay folks, I am going to be as nice and calm as possible, but the -Wire- is
down to the last unit of metric measurement here. The following, is a list of
people I have -NOT- received payment from at this time for the T-Shirts ('98
RN). The shirts themselves are arriving tomorrow, and the ones for which I
have payment received on, will be printed out Wednesday/Thursday. If you see
a "???" next to your name, that means that I know we have spoken on the
subject, but I am in need of informational updating on -YOUR- part. Either
that, or a swift kick in the memory department...one or the other.

-=-=-=-

Adam Jury (???)
Dvixen (???)

-=-=-=-=-

Folks, the clock is -OVER- on these orders, as they were used to form the
basis of the overall T-Shirt price. IF the payments are not received ASAP,
then there is going to be problems for -ALL- the shirts, and for me personally
(it was my name and reputation I put out here, please give some respect for
that much).

For all those names that I did -NOT- mention, I really do appreciate your
promptness that you have shown. I will remain in touch concerning the
shipping of your merchandise. Yours is paid for, there shouldn't be any more
problems on that end.

That brings up an interesting point: I have an extra copy of UB. Start

Gosh, that sounds interesting. Granite's shipping is paid for already, as
he'll be at Gencon next week, as will I. The -shirt- is what isn't paid for
as yet.

Granite, any info yet since last week?

My copy isn't extra, but it is superfluous to requirements. Is your
first-born child housebroken?

I don't know about her child, but I've got a fully-trained brother that
I've had no use for in a long while <g>. Is an aspiring architect a
good-enough trade for _UB_?

More seriously, I can get you about NZ$60, albeit somewhat delayed.
Good enough?

Forty bucks for Universal Brother hood? I don't have a spare, but the copy
I have is never going to get used, and it's in good shape. If someone has a
copy of LONE STAR, also in good shape, that they'd like to part with, I'd
consider a trade.

Just an idea here... I know nothing about these shirts, but (you probably
already thought of this) you might want to sell off your extras that you get
no response on to people who hadn't expressed an interest previously.
(Sucks, I know, but you may even have to unload some of them at a discount
to recover some of your cost). Anyway, I just joined (rejoined?) the list a
couple of days ago, so I know nothing of the shirts. Gotta link to a
picture?

How much is NZ$60 in money? ;) Plus I saw US$40 mentioned in
another post, and last year at Euro GenCon I heard someone
offered 20 UK pounds for a copy, and now even children and
brothers... Would it be frustrating to you all if I mentioned that I
got mine at that same Euro GC for, IIRC, about 7 pounds...?

Well, I actually bought mine when it first came out, for cover -15%. I am not
sure what the actual cost was, since the price is on the outter part I no
longer have, but hell, who cares. I got Lone Star too, though I am not sure
whether it was 15% off. <shrug> who cares I got 'em all :-)

I was awfully surprised to get such a response. :-) I guess I should make
a list of the books that I have duplicates of -- a friend moved away and
left me his Shadowrun book collection so I have extra copies of many of
the books. Which ones are of particular interest due to their
out-of-printed-ness. ;-)

When the UB book came out it retailed for $12. I picked mine up new from an
online comic book shop only a few years ago. I was happy to say the least.

I have all the SR books, and modules including "Silver Angel" which came with
one of the orginal GM screens IIRC.

Yeah, I have at least one copy of all of the SR sourcebooks and some of
the modules. I didn't bother getting all of the modules because, frankly,
most of the suck. I did get the more important ones, though.

That's about the same. I wasn't playing SR yet when the UB
came out, and by the time I got so interested in the game that I
started buying most of the books, the UB wasn't available
anymore. I think I got very lucky to find it on a second-hand
games stand. That's also my advice to anyone going to a con: get
to the trade hall early and browse through the second-hand stuff,
you can find a lot of things you never thought you'd see.

I have that one too, again second-hand at a very low price, with
the GM screen and a 1990 Shadowrun flyer included too.

I think that's what the guy who offered 20 pounds thought too --
I heard that from one of the people behind the stand where I
bought it, a few days later. Someone had asked them if they had
the UB, and the guy had said "There should be one in there," not
knowing I'd bought it a few hours earlier...

OK, this is potentially serious. I think its pretty rude that K spent
odles of time, and y'all order a shirt, and can't even get a check in
the mail. I expected more, at least from anybody who got thier NAME put
on the shirt. I'm hoping this is just an understandable set of
widespread (perhaps conatageous) SNAFU's, and will sort itself out very
quickly.

The carp guns are loaded and spinning, please don't make me use
them on so many people I currently respect. I will mail my armor
piercing carp.gif (not to the list), I swear it. The new natical class
carp cannon is particulary viscious- not even a GS rating bulwark will
protect you.

Mongoose

P.S. I myself spent a solid 20 hours on the project, without ancilary
communications efforts, and feel personally offended. If any of you
have e-copies of the art (2 or 3 do, iirc), and shaft us all (well, K,
in the short term, at least) on the shirt project in this way, please
destroy all copies in any format of said art- you have no further
permision for use. That's consistant with the fact that permison was
for ShadowRN shirt use by ShadowRN only.

What follows is an updated list, going on the information that I have either
received from those people, or to the fact that additional funds have arrived.

Scott Spencer (Java), it is imperative that you email me ASAP.

Things are starting to sort themselves out, but I still need everyone to get
working on this.

TINNER!!!

Yours was a very special shirt, and I do need to hear from you please.

Everyone else, let me know what is up.
