Survey: Rewards voting!
Added 2015-01-23 21:50:36 +0000 UTCHi everyone, Bob and I have begun working on quarterly rewards for backers. The stickers and poster tier are pretty well set already, but we could use some feedback on our shirts (which will go out to T-shirt tier backers and also be available for sale on Fangamer at a later date). I've picked some of my favorite episode covers from last season as candidates for the first shirt design, and I need YOUR help picking them. Which of these eight images do you think we should rework into a T-shirt design? (They'll likely be redrawn and definitely won't include the episode number.) Please reply below — thanks! — Jeremy

Bit late to the party but I like 5 and 8. Damn I wish I noticed this mail sooner. Have the shirts been printed I wonder?

2015-02-10 15:27:41 +0000 UTCWhoop! Good. Provided the P&P is reasonable, shall buy one if you go through with printing them. :-)

2015-02-08 18:50:45 +0000 UTCAnd it looks like the 5s have it!
Retronauts
2015-02-08 15:10:38 +0000 UTC1, 2, and 5
Ben Roberts
2015-02-04 22:18:44 +0000 UTC5, 2, 1
Daniel Lopez
2015-02-03 14:31:45 +0000 UTC1!
Scott Rothman
2015-02-02 17:20:23 +0000 UTC3 and 5 - both good work- and not exactly what people think when they think gamer shirt. 3 possibly too much- but fixable.
2015-01-28 23:27:32 +0000 UTCIn this order: 2, 1, 7
Austin Schaefer
2015-01-27 17:41:59 +0000 UTC1 is my choice.
Ed Stastny
2015-01-27 15:18:01 +0000 UTCNumbers 1, 4, 5 and 3. I enjoy the retro feel of 1,4 and 5 and I'm just a huge Baldur's Gate fan, so 3 is also a must.
2015-01-27 01:32:11 +0000 UTC5 is my jam!
2015-01-26 23:35:25 +0000 UTC1,5,2
2015-01-26 19:20:22 +0000 UTC#5 is my favorite.
nny
2015-01-26 18:47:08 +0000 UTCSix would be a stellar shirt. And I'm totally not just saying that because I was the guest on that episode.
James Eldred
2015-01-26 12:41:01 +0000 UTC6, 4, and 1 - in that order
2015-01-26 06:43:21 +0000 UTCIn order of preference: A: 5 B: 1 C: 4
2015-01-26 02:40:24 +0000 UTC#5 absolutely
Dave Kelly
2015-01-26 02:14:18 +0000 UTC6 and 5 are my favorites.
Christopher Martarano
2015-01-26 01:45:44 +0000 UTC5 is my favorite but 8 and 2 are great too.
2015-01-26 00:16:29 +0000 UTC1, 5, 6.
2015-01-25 13:12:44 +0000 UTC1 and 4.
2015-01-25 13:09:01 +0000 UTC6, 5 and 1
Kilgore Trout
2015-01-25 04:48:12 +0000 UTC5
That black guy
2015-01-25 02:46:44 +0000 UTC#4!
Alex Medina
2015-01-25 01:41:56 +0000 UTCYes, please use the famicom cover, it's my favorite from that season.
Hector Barreda Ehrlich
2015-01-25 00:38:33 +0000 UTCI like 5, 4, and 1 the best.
Hector Barreda Ehrlich
2015-01-25 00:35:52 +0000 UTC#4
2015-01-24 23:37:20 +0000 UTCThanks for all the feedback! Don't worry, not all our T-shirts will be based on older artwork. But we had a lot of requests last year to make various cover images from season three into shirts, so this is our chance to give everyone what they want.
Retronauts
2015-01-24 22:19:09 +0000 UTC1, 4, and 5 would make for great prints.
2015-01-24 21:30:23 +0000 UTC1, 2, 4, and 8 are all really cool. If I could only pick one, it would probably be number four. That design is just so bad.
Aaron Schafer
2015-01-24 20:34:48 +0000 UTC1 is the best, 4 is second.
Ben Hamilton
2015-01-24 19:40:34 +0000 UTC#2 is definitely my favorite.
etc etc
2015-01-24 19:02:00 +0000 UTCI'd say 5 is my favorite, followed by 6 or 8.
2015-01-24 18:28:23 +0000 UTC4
Kyle Starr
2015-01-24 18:07:48 +0000 UTCFive alive.
2015-01-24 13:05:54 +0000 UTCI would say 6, as it has the gaming and audio theme to it.
2015-01-24 11:48:37 +0000 UTCMy top three would be: 1, 5 & 8
Lutz Ohl
2015-01-24 11:23:12 +0000 UTCNumber 5.
Mart W
2015-01-24 08:39:48 +0000 UTC4
nico
2015-01-24 08:30:13 +0000 UTC5 is the one I really love.
2015-01-24 08:22:22 +0000 UTC3, 5, 2
Chris Saunders
2015-01-24 08:02:04 +0000 UTCMy favorite is 5
Maxine Morris
2015-01-24 05:09:22 +0000 UTCI would have preferred something a bit more Sega.
Bob Bailey
2015-01-24 04:57:24 +0000 UTCI'd go for #1 and #8, as far as shirts I'd want to wear.
2015-01-24 04:48:10 +0000 UTCFrom a design perspective 1 is probably the best, but there's something about the absurdity of 8 that I really love.
Chris
2015-01-24 04:47:14 +0000 UTCI really like 4, 5, 6, and 7.
2015-01-24 04:42:56 +0000 UTC4 & 5
Ron Buckman III
2015-01-24 04:09:40 +0000 UTC5. So hard.
2015-01-24 03:54:02 +0000 UTC1 or 2
2015-01-24 03:52:29 +0000 UTCI would, without question, purchase #4,6 and 7. They are all fantastic designs
2015-01-24 03:44:23 +0000 UTC1 or 5!
Justin 24Hr
2015-01-24 02:46:11 +0000 UTCnumber one I think, the one with the Intellivision guy.
Ian Chamberlin
2015-01-24 02:45:18 +0000 UTC4!
Nat
2015-01-24 02:37:21 +0000 UTC8 cracks me up and I love it, however #1 best captures the spirit of the thing. Crew jacket yeah?!
Jason H.
2015-01-24 02:35:49 +0000 UTC5!
2015-01-24 02:18:44 +0000 UTC1,2 and 5, I'm a little disappointed that you guys didn't use the Famicom cover from volume 3 nor the Wario one.
2015-01-24 02:12:21 +0000 UTC#6 is OK, but the fluorescent green could be a bit much
Marcus
2015-01-24 02:03:48 +0000 UTC1. I prefer my t-shirts to be a little more abstract, and I think that you could make the shirt really pop by printing the horizontal colored stripes across it, and varying their length to make it asymmetrical and interesting.
NerdHusband
2015-01-24 02:01:23 +0000 UTCI prefer the simpler designs #1 and #4
Marcus
2015-01-24 02:01:06 +0000 UTC1, but 4 is a close second
Jared Breland
2015-01-24 01:50:38 +0000 UTC6!
2015-01-24 01:48:11 +0000 UTC5 is my favorite of the batch
Ervin
2015-01-24 01:47:12 +0000 UTCI like 1, 4 and 7. The Powerglove one being my favourite as only the true battle-scarred 8-bit warrior would understand the reference.
Mark Paterson
2015-01-24 01:46:12 +0000 UTC8 is my first choice. 2 is my second choice.
2015-01-24 01:43:11 +0000 UTC5 for sure.
Andrew Robertson
2015-01-24 01:34:33 +0000 UTC5, 3, 1
2015-01-24 01:27:57 +0000 UTC8 then 4
Gareth
2015-01-24 01:26:16 +0000 UTCI'll go with number 5.
Ian Guebert
2015-01-24 01:19:24 +0000 UTC5 or 8, but 3 definitely has charm too.
Gordon Widener
2015-01-24 01:13:27 +0000 UTC4 and 7. 6 is a distant third.
Andrew Kehoe
2015-01-24 01:12:28 +0000 UTCI think numbers 1, 4, and 5 have the retro feel nailed down. Perfect without being too specific. Number 6 is stylish, and I think it's terrific for referencing the podcast's modern listenership. if that makes sense.
Aaron
2015-01-24 01:08:40 +0000 UTC5!
2015-01-24 01:01:15 +0000 UTC6, 7, 2
2015-01-24 00:56:58 +0000 UTC2 and 6
Ninjeff
2015-01-24 00:55:26 +0000 UTC6! So much 6!
2015-01-24 00:50:43 +0000 UTCOh I love #6
takeshikitano3
2015-01-24 00:35:25 +0000 UTCIn preferred order: 5, 4, 1, 6. Definitely my favourites.
2015-01-24 00:33:38 +0000 UTC4, 2, 8
2015-01-24 00:32:24 +0000 UTCI'd pick (in order) 5, 4, 8. My son totally would go for 8!
Max Smith
2015-01-24 00:30:22 +0000 UTC8, 6, 1
2015-01-24 00:27:50 +0000 UTCOf those, I'd prefer #8, although I'd prefer that the t-shirt designs not be based on characters or products that're discussed during the podcasts. I like the two previous Retronauts t-shirts because they were original and weird (especially the lizard with the skateboard). I'd prefer that the end t-shirt designs not hinge on some sort of popularity contest, because I'll inevitably just end up with a bunch of Nintendo characters and products on my t-shirts (which I don't want).
Kevin Bender
2015-01-24 00:24:52 +0000 UTC8 is super great!
2015-01-24 00:24:44 +0000 UTC8,2,6
Nicholas Zeltzer
2015-01-24 00:24:10 +0000 UTCIt saddens me slightly that there will be no direct follow up to the super rad skateboarding t-rex shirt design, but given the options I'd say my favorites in order are 1, 8, 4.
2015-01-24 00:22:30 +0000 UTCFor me: 6, 5 and 4 in order of preference.
2015-01-24 00:21:48 +0000 UTC1 and 5 I'd say. Most iconic without using common t shirt fodder.
2015-01-24 00:20:42 +0000 UTC1, 4 and 7 I'd go for in a heartbeat. <3
2015-01-24 00:20:35 +0000 UTCI wasn't sure how many you'd like us to pick, but I would say (in preferred order): 1, 4, 2
