A friend of mine on the Pink Floyd mailing list tells me that
they're discussing the idea of creating t-shirts for listmembers, and I
thought that this might be a good list to do that for as well.
Any thougts? It would, of course, have to be orchestrated by some
single person or persons who live near each other, and who has the time to
deal with orders and mail (I don't.)
One idea for a slogan on the pocket...

I think the idea was to get a shadowRN tee shirt, not a ShadowRun one.

But what's the fun in that, Phil? Sure, they're official
Shadowrun shirts and all, but the members on this list are an elite group
who not only play Shadowrun, but are truly a _part_ of what is to come!
In other, simpler words, the official shirt would be cool but ours
would be cooler because its ours.

Well, since nobody else has stepped forward to take control of the
T-Shirt idea I proposed a week or so ago, I'll do it.
I've done a little research, and found a company that'll sell
white, 100% cotton t-shirts, minimum 36, for less than $8.00 (American
dollars). Adding in the make-ready fee (to transfer our artwork into
whatever format they need) and shipping costs, the shirts will come out to
be between $10 and $15. Of course, it all depends on the number of people
interested.
So, lets have some design ideas. If you have artwork, UUENCODE it
and send it to me here at <jdfalk@****.com> in any standard format (GIF,
JPEG/JFIF, TIFF, Targa if bitmapped, PICT or WMF if vector.) I'll then be
able to use my account as a "clearinghouse" for other people who want to
take a look at the artwork before it gets voted on.
Of course, the main thing is the slogan, and what we'll call
ourselves. The Shadowrun Mailing List at Hearn isn't quite enough, IMHO.
We need a cooler name.
Any ideas? =^>

He, he -- the first should probably be included in the artwork if
possible, since its very much an inside joke here.

The problem with that is that "active participants" is a pretty
neubulous term. Also, we'll get some newbie on here in a few months who
notices me saying "we've still got ten shirts left!" and wants one, and
feels left out because they aren't listed.
I pay for this 'net connetion, BTW, so I plan to be here for a
good, long time -- maybe longer than our Fearless Leader can keep his
account at MSUS!
We should definately have "SHADOWRN@*****" and
"SHADOWRN@*****.nic.SURFnet.nl" listed someplace, though. (For those who
don't understand, the longer address is for Internet E-Mail and I think
the short one is BITNET.)

How, old on, folks -- the place I'm currently planning to get the
shirts through charges $20 to make the pictures ready, minimum 36 shirts
per picture. So, customized shirts will have to be done someplace else,
at extra cost.

If this was a serious suggestion, there's a serious problem with it.

I am assuming that J. D. Falk was talking to a screenprinter about doing
up those T-shirts. Most screenprinters charge about US$15.00 to produce
a screen. Thus, the more shirts you sell with that one screen, the cheaper
the shirts are to produce. So to put individual .sigs on individual shirts
means everyone pays for that custom screen, in addition to the screen(s)
common to all shirts (not to mention the cost of the shirt itself).

Of course, people could just put their .sigs on their shirts themselves.

Ob"I-know-what-I'm-talking-about"Statement: I helped my wife put together
a set of custom t-shirts/sweatshirts for our aquarium club one year.

BTW: That "per-screen" cost also means _per-color_, as each color must
be done on a seperate screen.

Problem is, if you get someone like me who keeps shirts for a long time, the
addresses quickly become out of date... An I would suggest some of the
regulars, but that would be at the expense of those of us who haven't
been on very long, etc...
A better suggestion is to put each person's favorite and longest running
character on the back.
So, I would have a big "CoHort" on the back of my shirt... or even
better, put a shadowrn/shadowtk symbol on the back, and the individual
character name on the front, left side, under a small symbol. _I_ would
pay for a shirt like this.

Scrap all the quotes that deal with the "Fearless Leader". That is not
what this list is about (At least I hope it's not.) By using these, you
are giving one person all of the power (Granted he _can_ remove people
from the list), and its all of the list users that make up the List. Not
just one person.
How's that for a little philosophy. :)

I agree. I would rather have Doc X listed than my name. It is more in
keeping with the spirit of the newsgroup. I bellieve the list would not
be complete without such names as Doctor Doom, Fearless Leader, Da
Minotaur, et al. These names I recognise. I wouldn't know who the hell
Steve Mancini was unless I associated him with his pseudonym.

As far as who is included on the list, that is a sticky situation
indeed. Should we be elitist (If you haven't been on for at least three
monthes your not allowed on!)? Or should we allow anyone on (Scene
shifts to a listmember opening his package and surveying the names on the
back. "Darkchilde? Who the hell is Darkchilde?"). This is a family of
sorts and we want to keep this as something that symbolises the group.
However we have never been one to exclude people from the group.

It would seem an adequate and equitable solution to the problem is
difficult if not impossible to find.

So would I, but I can't do it that way.
There are a lot of places that'll add custom lettering to an
existing T-shirt, usually for outrageous prices. You can also buy patches
and sew 'em on yourself, though that'd be strange on a cotton tee.
Sorry, folks, but like I said, it just can't be done. Still
interested in a generic SHADOWRN mailing list shirt?

In answer to Doc X's ideas about listing the more prominent names,
here's an idea. If the picture on the back turns out to be some sort of
montague (which, IMHO, is almost inevitable), we could have common quotes
from some people...oddly enough, though, I can't think of anything right
now. Perhaps Fearless Leader saying "Read the FAQL!" =^>

I understand what you mean about the turnover rate and all, but
I still think that I would be a way cool idea to have all the
addresses on the back. Maybe we could use a list of all the
people that are on the list for more that two weeks or something.
That should give us a pretty acurate list !

About the favourite Character or quote-signature etc.
We could do it on our own guys, I mean everyone could get the
generic shirt and then go to one of these cool places where
they print things on T-Shirts and individualise it :)

Well whadaya think?

I would propose that the minimum time be one-two months. Not a long
time, especially for a lurker as I myself once was.

Also, from when would we begin this countdown? From the time of the
original proposal? From the time that we agree upon what the shirt
should actually say? From an unspecified date in the future?

This has been pointed out before and has been shown to be rather
expensive. I wouprefer to have my name (or pseudonym as the case may be)
integrated into a list of people than have just my name showing on ths back.

Why don't you print a single T-Shirt and send a Diploma or something
with our Fearless Leader signature congratulating the buyer? (Including
the Users Name in the system. That would let the newbies feel alright,
wear the T-Shirt and Have the Diploma on the wall, near to the Sports

That's a rather sexist presentation. Some people might even have the
cippendales on their wall. Actually, I have a calendar of Boris
Valleio's works hanging on my wall, right next to a map of the internet,
right above 3' x 2' picture of the Enterprise, next to a picture of the

put the anmes/addresses of all the people who are buying shirts?

Hold it right there, bub. Maybe I missed something, but, as I recall, we're
talking ShadowRN shirts here, not ShadowTK - yes, believe it or not, there
are those who only read RN. (In fact, there are even some who read both for
a couple months, then got bored with TK and left.) Something to keep in

Yes, but, I never said anything about ShadowTK in my original post, did
I? I just said your favorite character's name.

This is, after all, a discussion group for a roleplaying game. Do you
play RPGs? I thought so - so, what is your favorite/longest-running SR
character's name? This is what I am suggesting be put on the shirts.

And I am one of those people. I only read Shadowrn now because I don't
have the time to devote to 2 maillists this size! I would still rather have
Doc X on the shirt than Dylan Northrup. Doc X is SR related, moreso
than my name is. Also, the point I was trying to make is, I would
rather have my pseudonym on the shirt alongside names like Da Minotaur,
Flare, and Doctor Doom. I think it sounds better.

Ok, the whole issue of the ShadowRN T-shirt has been kinda quiet, and
I've been holding back on inputing so I don't seem like Dictator-Leader.
In any case, here's an idea:

FRONT:
------
Over the left breast, put the Shadowrun logo.
Underneath that is written:
Shadowrun Discussion List
<shadowrn@*****..nic.SURFnet.nl>

BACK:
-----
Headline reads:
Surveyors of the Information Superhighway

Underneath that (this will be formatted nicer):
FOREMAN: Robert "Fearless Leader" Hayden
<hayden@*******.mankato.msus.edu>
ASSISTANT FOREMAN: Doctor Doom <jch8169@******.tamu.edu>

Under that is the list of all the people who buy a shirt (either real

Sounds good. Nice, simple, and to the point. I've always liked T-shirts
that have something small and not too conspicuous over the left breast;
the "big" logo is splashed over the back.

How about black lettering over a white or light grey? Or take the
negative, and do the white over black thing... No better way to overheat

Sounds good to me, only wrinkle is the names. I'll have to get
money from everybody perhaps as much as a month before the shirts are
finished (I don't know how long the company takes to make 'em), just so
that we know who should be listed on the back.
I, personally, can't afford to get more than one or two extras for
people who miss the first run. The minimum run will be 36 shirts.
And, if somebody more experienced in creating t-shirts wants to
take it over, please contact me personally at <jdfalk@****.com>.

Each color costs extra -- assuming 80 shirts, the extra cost would

Nothing wrong with blue on white, red on black, whatever.

I can take over if you want me to. I can call around tomorrow and get

I don't like the term "Information Superhighway" (I think it's a personal

What price was that? Depending on quantity of course, I might be
able to get them under $5 a shirt. Of course someone else would have to
do the artwork.

I *think* I normally pay the equivallent of 17$ for a shirt+the print
job. I guess I'll get a much better price for a bigger quantity.

What is this deal exactly, as I'm only a few months on the list? Can
I get a T-shirt with one of the Tim Bradsheet art works on them? Or
one with those cool SWAT-like soldiers?

Something like $20 in the US, $25 outside, including postage.

I wouldn't expect big quantities: last year's shirt has about 25 names on
it, so about 25 people bought one from our Fearless Leader :) I was once
told by a guy I worked for that he paid 200 guilders (about $115) per
stencil for the shirts he had printed up each year for the tourists, plus of
course the cost of the shirt (2 to 5 guilders per shirt or something, I
believe). So, if you get 25 shirts printed in one color on both sides (2
stencils), that would mean about $12 per shirt. Where I live, that is. And,
mind you, I didn't check anything with any manufacturers.

Last year's shirt is black with a white Shadowrun logo and the addresses of
the four SR-related mailing lists on the front, and on the back are the
words "Surveyors of the information superhighway" (despite my protests :),
the names of everyone who bought the shirt, and some more pictures ("cyber
rights now," etc.). In other words, a have a shirt with your name on the back...

Well this sounds really cool. A couple posts back J.D.Falk said somebody
lost money last time. Well I'd be willing to pay, say, $15 for a t-shirt
(since thats how much cheap shirts cost anyway). If somebody can figure
the price to break even, or even turn a profit, and started selling then
I'd definitely buy one.

I can get a high quality shirt for $2.85 a piece if I buy by the gross
(12 dozen) which will include the printing and everything.

Just so some of the less English-fluent people on this list can
get in on the joke, a gross (12 dozen) is 144 shirts.

To who ever decides to do the shirts

When you count up the people who are interested in buying one, figure your
estimated number for the cost on half this amount.

Ie - if 30 people say they want one.
You tell the printer that about 15 people want one, and he'll give you the
price. Then 20 people send you money - and the printer prints up 20 of them
because he will still have the template.

I agree, this is definitly not an unreasonable thing.. Plus, if you do get a

It would be a real plus to have the shadowrun logo on the shirt... Anyway,
I'll give a tentative commitment to buy a shirt, based on the artwork/text
to accompany it..

I've personally always fancied having a shirt with the insect spirit from
GrimII on the front or back -- you know, the one that's tearing through page
101. I think you'd have to get permission from FASA to use it, though
(unless you simply don't care :)
As far as original art is concerned, I would be willing to do it, were it
not for the fact that I'm quite possibly one of the worst artists this side
of the moon :) But if you all want to settle for geometrical shapes, I'm
your man! (Mondriaan eat your heart out! :)
What I _can_ do is put together a layout once the artwork has been
done/selected, so if you need any help with that, I'm available.

I brought this up a few months ago, and lots of people jumped up and wanted
one. Then it sort of died down and we never heard of it anymore. Somebody
said they were going to do them, so how about it guys/girls?

Hmm. I for one would like to see another T-shirt (not "T-short" as I keep
typing...), so the question would be who was going to do the art -- maybe we
can still bug him into doing it. How about my suggestion of the insect
spirit that's tearing through the page in the Grimthingy?

Well I still think that its a pretty cool idea, and I still want one.
So gurth why dont you put your considerable layouting talent to good use and
paste some art together for us.
I am partial to the SR logo from Running Gear ( the one with the metallic
plate), so we could have that for the front side and a list of names for the
back side. Along with some cool quote.
What do you think ?

I've been thinking -- like I said, I like the bug tearing through the page,
but I think we'd need FASA's permission or something (right, Rob?). What
about putting the SR logo on the front of the shirt, with the bug ripping
through it? We could warp the logo (using CorelDRAW for instance) and then
paste the insect spirit over that so it appears the logo is being shred to
pieces... On the back of course the names of anyone ordering a shirt. Sound
good?

That's what I thought. Now that I'm on this, I'll say that I'd be prepared
to cook up something to put on the front and/or back of the shirt, but that
I won't handle the printing. As I understand, Rob had agreed to print them
last time this came up (you had, right?), so now we'd need FASA's
permission. What do we do for that? Email them, explaining what we want to
do and that we're not going to be selling them in huge quantities? In other
words: how did you do it last time, Rob?

Well, since it appears I'm organizing this now (but who'll handle the
printing?), I'd say please ask FASA if we can use the SR logo and/or the bug
ripping through page 101 of the Grimoire II to put on a limited-edition
T-shirt for this mailing list.

As far as I know the FL is still the one responsible for the printing, but
if he cant handle it I'd be very happy to jump in.

I had this idea that I think I explained a dozen times already, so I see
what I can do once I obtain a scan of that insect (that is, if FASA allows
us to use it). I can't scan it myself because it's too wide :( so if
somebody could (who was it that was scanning those front covers...?)

Beats me, I'm not on ShadowTK, so I wouldn't know. But I thought J.D. was
the Keeper of the FAQ's for all the lists, not just ShadowRN. But, anyway,
perhaps the man himself can fill us in.

Just ShadowRN and NERPS from me. I think it's Mark Imbracio

So that's the following officials, if I'm not mistaking:

Fearless Leader: Robert A. Hayden
Assistant Fearless Leader: Dr. Doom
Keeper Of The FAQ: J.D. Falk
ShadowTK Deputy Assistant Manager: Mark Imbriaco
ShadowTK Log Editor: Daniel Waisley

That might be too many to put at the top of the shirt if it also is to say
"Shadowrun Mailing Lists" on the back, so I might put everyone but the
Fearless Leader & Assistant somewhere else.

BTW, there was a slight modification in the layout: the "1995" is no longer
at the bottom, it's now vertically along the right-hand side, beside the
rows of names.

I don't know if you've got it yet (you're probably inundated with people
sending it to you), but here it is:

==========
The second annual Shadowrun Mailing List T-shirt is now being ordered.
The artwork is being created by Gurth <gurth@******.nl> and the orders
are being handled by Robert Hayden (hayden@*******.mankato.msus.edu>.
Pictures of the proposed front and back are available via JD Falk's
Shadowrun page:
ftp://cais.cais.com/pub/jdfalk/html/shadowrun.html

PRICE:
United States: $20 for the first, $18 for each additional
Outside U.S.: $25 for the first, $22 for each additional
NOTE: All overseas purchases must be made
in U.S. funds. I recommend an
international money order, available
at most banks.

Also note that it will be several weeks before the shirts can be
delivered, because Gurth needs to do the artwork with all the names before
they can be printed. Expect the shirts to be done in mid to late August.

-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-> CLIP AND MAIL <-=-=-=-=-=--=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-

Please send ______ 1995 Shadowrun Mailing List T-shirt(s). I have
enclosed ______.

NAME: ______________________________________________________

ADDRESS: ______________________________________________________

______________________________________________________
(note: the address you give should be your PERMANENT one)

E-MAIL: ______________________________________________________

NAME YOU WANT PRINTED ON THE SHIRT:

______________________________________________________

Send a copy of this order form and your payment to:
Robert Hayden
P.O. Box 4041
Mankato, MN 56002-4041
USA
==========

FL also notes in a later post that all T-shirts are XL. If you want a larger
shirt, note this on your order, and it'll cost $1 more. If you want a
smaller shirt, he says to do the same, but smaller ones are a bigger hassle,
so only do it if you REALLY need a smaller one.

Is is acceptable to send U.S. Checks, or do you require money orders or cash?

Having just checked this address about 20 seconds ago, I can affirm that
this is the correct address. Perhaps you might wish to check the
spelling on your end or, if that is not the culprit, write down the error
and ask your sysadmin what could be causing the problem.

It's right. If you weren't aware of it, URL's can be used to refer to all
sorts of protocols, not just HTTP. A good browser can recognize an HTML
document at an FTP site and grab it for you. Won't be as efficient as HTTP,
but the difference is transparent to the user. Just type that URL into
your browser as usual.


Blessings,

Here's the official scoop from the official guy doing the (somewhat)
official ShadowRn t-shirts.

That's me.

Hi. I've got the shirts on order and the 3XLs, 4XLs, and 5XLs are on order
and they'll be here today or tomorrow. The Ms, Ls, XLs, and 2XLs are also
on order and they'll be here on the 10th, which means that I can drop off
the shirts on the 11th or 12th and then it takes eleven working days to get
them printed, so we're looking at picking them u pon the afternoon of the
28th. The earliest people in the US of A will see them is the 2nd of July,
international orders may be a few days later (if they get out of the US
Postal System by the 3rd, it'll be cool. The USPS is closed on the 4th of
July for some reason.)

I'll be posting an accurate list of names for the back that I'll be printing
out and working from. So if I spell it Jester instead of Jestyr, that's
where you worry.

I'll probably repost this message later this week when everyone is back on.

Actually, if you aren't in Canada or the US, I'm sending them via air mail.
The USPS said they'd take 6 to 10 days to get to any non-North American
nation, so be looking for the shirts around the, um, 10th of July? Maybe
sooner.

Basically I said that the Ares Viper Silvergun (9S(f)) wasn't that
unbalancing a weapon when you remember against armord targets it's on 9M
and the target gets to use either twice his impact armor or his balistic
armor which ever is higher. It's small, silenced and has a burst fire
mode which makes it a good weapon for light work but if you know you're
going up against armored opponents and concelability isn't an issue you
can do a lot more damage with an assault rife (or for the really evil a
shot gun with BF mode) and some APDS.

People have been trickling back since Saturday or Sunday (depending on what
side of the planet you're on). Not much has been going on. Paolo's
redesigned his web page. Thomas is working on the t-shirts. People are
wondering what happened to the list and why they were kicked off. Little
stuff like that.

The only problem I have had is that it becomes quite funny when I
have to send E-mails to my course organiser and he hasn't got a clue
who Haloween Jack is.

Also the sig file becomes a little bit of a problem as well I keep
forgetting to turn it off when I send e-mails to the lectures.

When I GM I never really have any problems with the one character that
carries a Slivergun, cuz most of my NPCs are armored. And even when he cuts
loose on the unarmored ones I don't mind, cuz he's playing smart.

IMHO the best pistol package that you can carry would be an Ares Slivergun
for the unarmored targets and an Ares Predator with AP for the armored
targets.

And, IMHO, there really isn't a best package combination for anything more
powerful. Why? Because I balance my game by giving the opposition
weapons comprable to what the characters are carrying. And you can quickly
reach a point where no amount of armor is going to stop most of the heavier
weapons (especially in BF and FA mode).

*groan* We're getting t-shirts done and have talked about it back in May
[has it been that long?]. They'll FINALLY be ready on July 4th (sorry for
yet another delay). Unfortunately, all the shirts are at the printers and
I'm accepting no more orders. Frankly, I couldn't add to the order right
now as it's in a big big warehouse awaiting printing. So sorry Jeff and all
the other recent subscribers to the list.

Next year, I might be able to make another similar t-shirt offer (or heck,
maybe even in the winter) for a similar price. At least then, I'll have a
reasonable timetable for production.

And for those of you wondering: No, I didn't skip town and go to the
Bahamas with the t-shirt money.

It's an annual T-shirt now, isn't it? Third time in three years, I believe
(no, I know :)

Actually, Robert, Andre', Damion, and Lady Jestyr might not mind a December
order. It's winter were they are right now. BTW, I'm picking up the shirts
tomorrow and posting them asap.

I mailed all the shirts off a while back (July 5th? 8th?). Gurth received
his four days after I mailed them out, and I believe he's in the same
country as you are. The longest time that it's taken to receive one was the
shipment to South Africa (about a month, maybe five weeks). The package was
shipped via air mail to Europe and included my return address on the parcel.
I haven't received any back as undeliverable and assumed that every one did
get what they ordered.

He still has his page at http://telltale.hart.org, and it has been
revamped. Looks nice. Anyway, after a couple of e-mails from me (and
I guess others) urging him to let us know what is going on with the
shirts, he finally posted an update. For all interested, I will post
it here:

...
The second thing only pertains to those members on the
ShadowRN Mailing List who think I've made off with
thier hard-earned cash. I believe that there's a
lot of you who think I've bilked you all, making
off with all that money... I do appreciate your
patience, and for not sending me hate e-mail. I have been
silent on this topic for a while, and now I just ask you to
have patience for another two weeks.

As you know, in August I was wed and moved across
country. I fully intended to get the shirts done
and out before the wedding, but my lazy attitude,
the whole wedding mess (and me telling someone
else I'll wait until they send in money -- although I'm not
blaming anyone else for something that was totally my
fault), and yes, the UPS strike all added up to
nada being done. I wanted these shirts off my
hands by Gen-Con (and a rumor started up that I
was going to Gen-Con and giving out the shirts there). But I
didn't get them out by the wedding date.

Which no doubt pissed off my friends on the
mailing list.

I'm not going to even describe the state of our
finances after the wedding, the move, and my
unemployment period in the land of High Cost of
Living.

"Deeds, not words." That's something that you'll
want. You'll want your shirts in your hands, and
you want them now. All you've heard from me so far
have been words. Originally, these shirts were
going to be sent out around Christmas, but that's changed.
Now they'll be out around Christmas, but Christmas this year.

I apologize most sincerely for the inexcusable
delay to all who have ordered shirts. I know that
some of you wouldn't trust this message -- I know
that I'd be really pissed off -- but now I have
the time, I've (finally) got the money, and I've (also finally) got
all the names and addresses ready.

You've read more words. In about two weeks, you'll
see the deeds.
...

His e-mail address is fauxpas@*********.com. Everyone, please drop
Thomas a line and urge him to come back to the list, and thank him

If this is a severly dead thread, forgive me, but I have been off
of the list for the past 8 months, so I wouldn't know. Last April some guy
was working on T-Shirts for the list, I still have his e-mail address, but
he doesn't respond, so I was curious if anybody on the list knew what
happened to the SRUN List T-Shirts. Any help is appreciated.
In case it is not understood, I ordered a T-Shirt and never got
it, or any message telling me why.

That was Thomas Deeny, who is no longer on the list. Check out his web
site at http://telltale.hart.org. He addressed this subject there
after I pestered him with e-mail, but he still hasn't made good on his
promise.

Well.... never mind.

Anyway, I dropped of the list shortly before the deadline on orders for
the tees and have thus missed this affair. However, send me info off
list and I'll see what I can do from my end. (Some times ya just gotta

The 1996 shirt has a four-color front print, and white only on the back.
The '94 and '95 shirts had white on the front, and day-glo green and
white on the back. Whether or not much color can be used, though, depends
mainly on the costs involved, IMO. If it would push the price of a shirt
to US$25+, then I'd rather have no color and a lower price...

Finally, I got my *first* of FOUR T-shirt packages. I don`t mind the
colour, but they look really cheapskate - no back printing, etc. I
wonder how much of our money Faux Pas made off with? After all, the
prices he quoted us included back printing... that`s what we all paid
for.

Also, the package was postmarked in Late February, 1998. Not impressive,
when they were meant to be sent last July.

Anyway, what`s the status on the 98 shirt? Who`s organising it?

I would, but... I know how I am... I need constant reminder, and I'm not

Anyways, I strongly suggest if we are going to do a '98 list shirt (And I

shirts by Origins, but will settle for Gen Con :]

Anyways, let's start from the beginning on this. Who can get shirts made?
How much will they run? And who is willing to submit artwork? The artwork

I offered to do the design (not the artwork for the front, which we
haven't even decided on yet), but having them printed is not something I
want to involve myself in, for reasons having to do with the government.

I am NOT taking this one. I just had an entire seies of manic problems, the

I would almost be willing to do it. But anything I can come up with
would be in the $20-$30(US) price range. And that seems to be more
than people are willing to pay.

BTW, I have an alternate art idea.

Instead of trying to fit all the pictures on one T-shirt, how about
having 4 different shirts?

Shirt 1: Watch Your Back
Shirt 2: Conserve Ammo
Shirt 3: Shoot Straight

You realize that an overwhelming majority would probably request shirt
4? Not to mention most shirt printing shops charge more for 25 each of
4 designs than they do for 100 of one design.

I can ask at my local T-shirt printers... he`s done me some pretty good
deals before. (Eg. 20 cotton shirts with a logo on the left breast, one
color print, cost me $AUS 8 per shirt... about $5 US per shirt. The cost
of more and bigger printing in multiple colours would be, I think,
largely offset by the increase in shirt numbers.

The big problem with this is that I`m in Australia, so you`d all have to
put up with either expensive postage (to have it couriered/air
freighted) or longer delays in postage. However, if the list is
desirous, I`d be happy to organise all this - but I ain`t doing the
artwork. ;)

> Instead of trying to fit all the pictures on one T-shirt, how about
> having 4 different shirts?

The problem with this is that this will be MUCH more expensive than just
4 times as many of one shirt. MUCH more expensive.

We should be able to keep the shirts down below $20 American.

Nah. Don't like it, plus that will certainly increase the cost.

Why do we have to have more than one color?

I'm just imagining a black t-shirt with "ShadowRN - Pre-Awakened Forum" on
the front (I love that, worth the price of admission there) and on the back
four cartoonish, stick-figure drawings of the four sayings, all of which in
white?

It's simple. It's less expensive that using multiple colors. And the
basic style, if done right, might actually be vaguely hip. You know, like
those Pearl Jam "Jeremy" shirts or those "Talk to the hand!" shirts
that
are simple and cartoonish.

If the art is simple there's a better chance it will come through clearly
on a printed t-shirt. That's why the list photo concept simply won't fly.

As alternate t-shirt colors we could also do Forest Green, Navy, or
Burgundy. I've got t-shirts in all those colors, printed up for my old
college radio station, and they all look good (at least on me <smirk>).
Plus they are easier to wear in the sun than black (hey, some of us
actually do go outside sometimes).

I'm NOT taking charge of this little thing but I'll try to remember to look
at a t-shirt printing place tomorrow while I'm running errands so we can
have a better idea of costs and amount of time involved.

Blasphemer! The Back Shalt Have The Listmembers Names On It...

Seriously, I think a shirt without the list names on it would be
disappointing and not worth the money. (Witness this year`s shirt - the
two main gripes [apart from It`s Late!] were the colour of the shirt
(which I don`t mind) and the lack of names on the back (which I do
mind).

It just wouldn`t be a list shirt if it didn`t have the names on the
back...

Why do I have this sudden fear that Keith will show up at GenCon dressed
like someone out of Men In Black and play on his "net.name"?

That would certainly make him 1) easy to spot and 2) easy to determine who
it is (or at least narrow the possible choices down to a few).

I was merely planning on wearing the list shirt and a Bablyon 5 hat at the
ComicCon...

Oh no.

I just had an idea for the artwork for the t-shirt.

What if we did a t-shirt based on "Oh my God! They killed Dunkelzahn! You
bastards!!"

The front would probably still read "ShadowRN: Pre-Awakened Forum" and
might be in a font that would better match the South Park style.

The back, which in this case would be best if it were in color, would have
very cartoonish (ala South Park) shadowrunners on it, instead of Kenny &
Cartman, etc.

Basically the entire shirt would be a take-off on the similar South Park
t-shirt. Since we are just mimicking style and not necessarily content, I
think we would be free from any legal hassles, especially if no profit is
made (and we aren't supposed to do that anyway with this project).

Just think of how many people would be coming up to you (in the states at
least, where I know it's shown; it's made it to the UK hasn't it?) and
asking you about your shirt.

Not only would it be a great way to recognize each other but it would also
be a potentially great recruiting device for RN.

Plus, since it's too cool, I think a lot more people would be willing to
buy this particular t-shirt. Hell, I've got no artistic talent but I might
even try and see if I can make this thing, just for my own amusement.

How about it?

Five dollars (approx) is an outstanding price.

Well, if we can get artwork agreed to by next week, and get all of the
orders with checks sent to you by the end of May, say the shirts are done
the first week of June, that gives about 6 weeks until GenCon. I would
think that would be enough time to get something sent from Oz to the
States. Maybe not. How much would air-freight be? I can't imagine that
upping the price beyond $20 American. I think most people would be willing
to cough up $20 for a good looking shirt that would arrive in time for the
summer's big Cons...

Hell, if done right, this could be a great looking summer paintball shirt
for me. I mean, the ideas of "Shoot Straight" and "Conserve Ammo" are
definitely perfect for paintball.

Look into the concept. It might work.

KISS is always a good principal to stick with. Actually my stepmother

Honestly, why? I don't see any real reason to put our names on the shirt,
especially when that space can be better used for some good artwork. I
think it makes for a far more attractive shirt without the names.

If the shirt looks good (good color and good art), is inexpensive and is
on-time if not early, then I don't personally see a problem with it.

>It just wouldn`t be a list shirt if it didn`t have the names on the

I don't see why that's the case. I can remember the first few shirts, but
I've missed the last several. Maybe I'm not tied down by "tradition." But
I do know I want to make sure if I'm buying a list t-shirt I want it to
look good. If it doesn't look good, well, it doesn't make me look good.
And I have to look good you understand. Moral and ethical imperative.

Hmmm...

Okay, here's a thought, but it would make the t-shirts cost more.

The "ShadowRN: Pre-Awakened Forum" bit goes on the right sleeve of the
t-shirt. The front has whatever artwork we decide on. And on the back it
says something like "1998 Council Members" or "Team 1998" or something
like
that with the names of the people listed below it.

That I think I could live with.

Well, I'm not a big fan of South Park either, but the idea of a cartoony shirt has
also been appealing to me. Stick figures were a neat idea, and the cardboard
cutoff characters they use on South Park are just as simple and funny to me.
That is what I like about the idea, not that its based on South Park. (And the
fact that I like the phrase "They killed Dunklezahn, you bastards....") :)

Hey, it's just an idea at this point, Granite ol'chum. Don't like South Park?

I REALLY like the idea. So much so that I'll investigate the possibility
of doing these t-shirts anyway, even if they aren't the official list shirts.

Which means this weekend I'll have to muster up what little artistic talent
I have (which isn't much at all) and see what sort of art I can safely
swipe (i.e., what can I steal then alter so it's not the original image)
and slap it all together.

I've never bothered to set up my own web site, so I'll probably have to
send the files off to someone with a site that can display it for the list.

I imagine a cut-out backdrop of Seattle (including Space Needle, obviously)
with a troll samurai, and probably a decker and a shaman. Obvious
archetypes you know. Cartman the troll sam would have a single horn and
fangs and holding a PAC. The decker would be plugged into a cyberdeck.
The shaman would be the "back-to-nature" type. Then below the image would
be "Oh my God! They killed Dunkelzahn! Those bastards!!"

The front (or maybe back, I don't know) would, in order to keep FASA out of
it, would probably have to be "ShadowRN: Where you can kill dragons" or
something more amusing.

This shirt would be more expensive than the "normal" list shirt, simply
because it would have to be in color to do it right.

I can't promise anything, but I'll look into this amusing possibility this
weekend.

Call it a skill of mine ;) What I mean is that IF the List doesn't have a

I think that idea would work fine, but the names should definitely be there

No.

This idea means I'd have to buy four shirts (I need to keep my collection
complete :) and it'd drive the price up anyway -- each shirt would need a
separate screen to have it printed, so that would be four screens, plus
one for the back (assuming all shirts would have the same back print).
More different shirts would mean less printed of each, and thus a higher
price per shirt.

I agree with Lady J., the shirt should have the names on the back of
everyone who buys a shirt. I don't buy that it'll be more attractive
without the names; all it needs is to be done right (unlike the 1996
shirt, which just had a very bland list of names and nothing else on the
back).

Woudln't it be easier (less expensive) to put both the "forum" text and
the artwork on the front?

That's the way the 1994 and 195 shirts were set up, more or less.

I'm kind of un-easy about having a shadowrun list shirt designed based on
something unrelated ... (then again I haven't decided whether or not to
get a shirt ... have to wait at see the design ...) However, would you
draw a dead Dunkelzahn in South Park style?

Either way I reccommend either 1) keeping any such art on the front and
have a list of names on the back or 2) making any back artwork a
watermark so you can still use the whole back for the list of listmembers
... :)

BTW, What names will be printed? Like for example, with my name will it
be D.Ghost or Alfredo B. Alves, and will the email addy be included?

D.Ghost

Somehow, I picture it looking like something from Monty Python.

That aside, I wouldn't be too interested in a South Park related T-shirt
myself.. I mean, I watch the show, but after seeing "Mr. Hankey" I'm not sure
I want to be announcing that to the general public. :)

I like the idea of a simple one color design thing is I can't draw very
well.
So the good folks on the list who draw will have to the that bit. IMO
these shirts should
be something that we use to make it know that we are members of
ShadowRN. If they become a
hassle and/or major expense... Nuff said

Other than I loath South Park I don't see a problem with your idea.

What about Artwork on the back and the names over it... maybe with
some whacky old .sig quotes from whoever bought one??? If you do this
in the right style of writing it can look good, if you don't...
Or we can do a really big letter-style Carp from the names of
everyone...

WANT to see my handle and e-mail on the back :]

2) KISS applies to all things, including this :] SImple design on the

There's no room. With the 1996 shirt, there was barely enough room to put
everyone's name and address on the back, with the result that it was
much too plain for my taste -- it looked like a bit of a rush job, which
isn't good, IMHO. Just the names will take up enough space, I think, going
by the previous shirts.

:)

You know what, I'll dig up my designs for the 1995 shirt (which were the
ones used), convert them to GIF or JPEG, and put them up on my page.
Better do it before uploading my mail, else I'll forget...

You know, if this idea had come about ten years ago, when the Simpsons were
hot, I would have been all over it. It's still amusing though.

Seriously though, I withdraw my idea of South Park Shadowrunners for the
official list shirt. Seems too many people dislike the idea to make it
worth it.

For the list shirt I vote for the SR saying in stick figures on the front,
with the list names on the back.

I will be, over the next month, trying to design my own South Park
Shadowrunners t-shirt, simply because I really like the idea and would be
willing to wear a t-shirt like that (and I don't wear many t-shirts anymore).

If you are serious about wanting one of those t-shirts, e-mail me PRIVATELY
and I'll keep you informed as to my progress. When the time comes, I'll
let you know how much the shirts would be and I'll be collecting money and
addresses.

Expect it to not be cheap however, since it would be a small run of shirts
and would be in nearly full color.

Now back to normal (hah!) list business.

King of the Hill? Blah. I've watched it several times just to see if I
found any amusement potential at all. Needless to say, I haven't. I

I cannot claim to be a SP expert or anything..But I have seen a few
episodes [while at a friend's house] including the Mr Hanky Christmas
Special..And I will admit that there are a few laughs in
there..Overall, however, I find SP to be vulger and base..I am not

the T'Shirt.

maybe some thing like:

| Serenity Prayer |

| List |

Nothing wrong with it really, but I've seen the prayer so many times in the
past couple years that it's rather trite. Certainly not as good as some of
the other ideas that have been bounced around the list.

-Adam J
Never met a 'Shadowrunner' that prays anyways..

I've always wanted one of the "T-shirts" that TechDair is wearing in
Prime runners (the picture is also on P.48 of the Companion)- a Circular
Celtic patern inside a gear, with several slugs imbedded in it (TD's
version is a BPvest). I could actually do that art, in one color,
pretty well. No text on the front, unless people think this might get
you in trouble at airports (IRA and all).

The"Serenity Prayer" back would work well with this <g>, as would
the
"4 rules", space allowing (really tiny font, 3 collums?)

Not only is it still up, but I updated the art on that page. The old
stuff was "layed out by primitive tribesman"- the new stuff is actual
thumbnails of the finished art overlaid on the appropriate color. The
difference? Well, the text layout on my sketch is (slightly) different from
the finished version, and since I just floodfilled the old ones, they have a
lot of "ghost pixels".
I'll keep the URL up, although it might eventually have updated text to
reflect the finished nature of the project, and a scanned photo of me in the
shirt (or just a scanned shirt).

That's cool, and whenever I finally get the scanner and printer switched
around here, I can upload the images that Mike and I have from the Gencon
(including the group photo, which was MUCH larger than last years IIRC).

Hey, since I'm on this list (and that's not very long...) I read about those
t-shirts... Could anybody explain to me what kind of t-shirts it is you are
always talking about? (Newbie is getting on your nerves, I know...;-) )

They are the ShadowRN List Member (partial listing anyway) T-Shirts. They are
an annual thing, and this year, I was the (un?)lucky supervisor for such.
Mongoose wound up being the artist whose design(s) won out (we voted). There
are still several shirts that can be purchased, and I would honestly enjoy (as
would the people I made the business arrangements with ;) more of them being
purchased, as it helps out the agreement overall. AND, if I do take up the
job again next year (looking into the concept of two or more colors more
seriously for example), then it would help our overall reputation with a set
business locale as well.

The image of the back is there all right, but the other two images seem to be
missing...

Okay folks, here's the final gist on my end of things. I'm out of the potential shirt
producing side of things. I'm just not ready to go through all of that again, especially
given the lack of apparent, *SERIOUS*, interest in them this year and the approaching
times that would be needed to be met in order to have them done in comfortable amount of
time for Gencon.

Yeah, that '99 list shirt must be wearing pretty thin by now... Though I
doubt we have enough people here now to do another one :(

But if we do another one, my vote is (once again) for a carp.

I'm sorry, I don't have any of the 1999 ShadowRN T-shirts left.
