[This is a lot rougher sketch than I had thought I'd submit (work this past week blah blah blah)]

We see three gamers. The drawing is minimal, with fluid lines, just the fewest possible features reveal their expressions. Each bears/carries something that marks them as so-called "old school" types.

Image


The alternate motto is simply: We Roll All Our Own Saves. (But maybe that's too much of a dig at 4th Edition.)

The module being pulled from the satchel is obvious. Brownie points to anyone who can identify the other two references (that third one is probably impossible owing to hasty sketching and working from memory...).

"What do you think, Sirs?"

P.S. I can actually draw fingers, by the way. :mrgreen: Oh, and noses, too.

How about "Wheel of Adventure" with GG products on each space of the wheel similar to Wheel of Fortune DCC, Etherscope, Dragonmech, ect. On back GG logo and underneath "With Goodman Games Everyone is a Winner!" ?

I can cope with editing... :mrgreen:

Let's go one step further and, since I don't like rhyming nearly as much as alliteration, arrive at: We Game for the Glory.

Might be too late but ....


1. [front]

DCC ...

D (on't)
C (ome)
C (rying for your mamma)

[back]
'Cause she died last round.

2. "Roll for Initiative"

3. From one of the DCCs (can't remember which)

“While you were out, we killed all your NPCs, looted their bodies, sold their families into slavery, and overthrew the monarchy. How much experience is that worth?”

4. The cover illustration from Saga of the Dragon Cult. That is so cool.

Will you announce the winner here or are you going to build the suspense and unveil the winning design at gencon?

OK guys, after a lot of deliberation and internal debate, we have a winner. First, thanks to everyone for your ideas. These are GREAT and there are a lot of fun shirt ideas in here. We have to pick one winner, but we have a half-dozen runners-up and we'd like to eventually get around to doing several of the ideas proposed here. All that said, the winner -- and the shirt we will be wearing at Gen Con -- is:
A crossed weight bar bell and scythe, with the Goodman triceratops overlayed in the center.

with the the text. "Goodman Games Gym" "Millers Court, Áereth" and on the back "Get Ripped"
Thanks to Seben-PistonRager for this great idea! Please contact me at info@goodman-games.com with your shirt size so we can get one made up for you. Also let me know if you'll be at Gen Con so we can figure out what autographed products to send you.

Great work everyone, and keep throwing out the fun ideas!

I won? I won!

Monkey Dance!(nope... really the truffle shuffle)

Time to Email! Series of tubes don't fail me now.

Also, I had another interesting idea...but it's for another thread entirely... I'll have to make some quick notes before I get to the sleep I'm about 4 hours late for right now... but email first!

I'd still love to have just a black tshirt with this logo in the middle of the front.

I realize that this 'contest' was run on an informal basis... but what's the status of the 'runner-up' ideas?

I'm considering doing something else with my own submission... provided it is still my 'own' idea... :wink:

What's the official take on this?

Hello, I'm a fellow fan of Goodman Games!

Just in case this isn't a spam post...
I think this t-shirt was only sold at gencon 08.
As far as I know it is sold out.

I know the contest ended years ago, but this thread floated to the surface and I had a thought so I had to post it.

If you have any ideas for the name a DCC spell contest please post them. I think that contest has fizzled out and needs a boost. With all your double posts the topic will look very popular. :mrgreen:
