Pimpin' the See-Bee-Jee

So I'm planning to go to Gen Con when it comes to Australia next year, and I was thinking:  does the CBG want representation there in any form?  I haven't given this a hell of a lot of thought, but I've already had one request from a member of this board and I'd be more than happy to pimp my beloved SeeBeeJee, be it advertising or a little merchandise...

Thoughts?

Elven Doritos

A fedora hat, pimp cane, and mink coat are in order.

Ishy, get on that.
Oh, how we danced and we swallowed the night
For it was all ripe for dreaming
Oh, how we danced away all of the lights
We've always been out of our minds

I think some representation is an excellent idea.  I imagine we have a bit of time to decide for sure, but maybe we could get a few printed Guides out (may be expensive, I'll have to see what I can do with this), as well as something like little "business cards" of some sort.  Not to mention a few shirts.  Let me think on this, and you guys definitely discuss what you think would be a good idea(s).

For finite types, like human beings, getting the mind around the concept of infinity is tough going.  Apparently, the same is true for cows.

There should be cabbage in some form. :D

Actually, I'm not kidding. It's pretty much our trademark, and it is an epitome of the site's atmosphere and the type of humour we like. Cabbage t-shirts, www.cabbage.net flyers, actual cabbages, some stuff like that would be cool.

"Then shall the last battle be gathered on the fields of Valinor. In that day Tulkas shall strive with Melko, and on his right shall stand Fionwe and on his left Turin Turambar, son of Hurin, Conqueror of Fate; and it shall be the black sword of Turin that deals unto Melko his death and final end; and so shall the Children of Hurin and all men be avenged." - J.R.R. Tolkien, The Shaping of Middle-Earth

Cabbage plushies are in order! Or some cool ninja-cabbage flyers. Or, you could sell a CBGuide compilation.

I don't think that the CBG is best represented by merchandise or business cards. I've been to conventions and gotten cards for stuff, but we're about world builders, and cards are just going to be lost in the noise.

I'd say wear a shirt (if you want to) and mention it if you meet other campaign builders and explain how cool it is. That makes it personal and relevant, and I frankly can think of no better way to inform potential members.

(Cabbage plushie would be awesome though ;) )

SA

Yeah, we need at least one cabbage plushie.

Dude. Just thought of something.

A cabbage HAT. A hat that looks like a cabbage...

Or, a hat that IS a cabbage.

(Will need a steady supply, though, as it will likely get smelly and fall apart)

Jharviss

I think we need to have a head of cabbage that is painted to look like a world.  That would be both impressive and the ultimate representation of the CBG.

That would work, except for the whole cabbage-rotting thing. Maybe a cabbage plushie painted like a world?
