Religious tracts: they're not just for Jack Chick anymore! Even fake religions like Roboreaganology can get in on the act. Praise Capitalism!

Roboreaganology tract

You can download this tract as a PDF, so that you can print them and start promoting Chainsaw Buffet for us wherever you go sowing the seeds of chaos wherever you go!

Also, to show your support for the Church of the Immortal Robot Reagan (in addition to sending us your life savings so that we may use it to buy a condo in Maui in anticipation of the Reagan's resurrection in cybernetic splendor), place the following banner in your board signature or on your site. Praise Capitalism!

Praise Capitalism! And give us lots of loot.

It does look pretty badly typed and photocopied. Like a real tract.

Yup.

That's the point. I originally made this up because I think it'd be neat to print up some of these (as well as some normal Chainsaw Buffet flyers) and leave them on the "free stuff" tables at conventions. (Well, assuming you don't have to get special permission for that.)

Sadly, I'm quite nervous about doing crazy things like that, so I'll probably chicken out at the last minute.

Also, just noticed the PDF link was broken. Fixed.

Just put the Chainsaw Buffet logo on the back and you're set to go.

Hmm.

That requires printing them front and back. I was just gonna go with the ginormous URL at the bottom and print a bunch out.

I'd like to do some actual CB fliers that are 1/2" and 1/4" of a page. I've also got some business-card sized fliers with CB characters and such laid out, I just need to try printing a page of them once we get some ink.

Also tossed around the idea of doing buttons and such. As I've said, there's enough inside jokes like "PRAISE CAPITALISM!," "Ask me about the Immortal Robot Reagan," "Eat more vegans. The Chef commands it," and "Cookie compromised!" that we could wear a few around for effect.

Not me, of course. I'm not wearing pins. I'm chickening out of that one right now. There's a pretty good shot I'll chicken out on all of this, and the stack of fliers will be sitting up in the hotel room at MTAC. Ironically, right next to the Jin costume that I will probably chicken out of wearing.

It's too late to chicken out now.

Really, it is. If we're going to do this, we're going to do it right.

Well.

If it's too late to chicken out, then you may have to do it yourself if you want to see it through. :P

I'd do it.

Then...

January 25, 2008 09:33 PM
.. you shall be granted a stack of pamphlets/tracts/fliers to hand out.

Sucker. You're working for free.

Just noticed something.

I'd like to do some actual CB fliers that are 1/2" and 1/4" of a page.

Obviously, I meant one-half or one-fourth of a page, not one-half-inch or one-fourth-inch of a page.

Those would be the worst fliers ever.

For free.

January 25, 2008 10:10 PM
...or so you think.

Not for free?

If there is a price you require from Chainsaw Buffet for your services, I'm going to call NOT IT right now. Which means The Chef has to pay it.

Also, if you write something for CB, I don't think you can very well charge a price for promoting it.

I'm willing to be paid in percentages of the profits. I'll take 30% of all past, present, and future profits. It's a really good deal since you're not making any money right now.

Profits?

I pretty much have no plans to put ads on the site right now. I'm not even sure there's a good place for them as busy as the current layout is.

"Monetizing" Chainsaw Buffet (as the fancy-shmancy Web 2.0 types like to say) isn't really an issue unless we (a) have enough traffic that it's an actual possibility, or (b) have enough traffic that I have to pay crazy overages on my hosting. (I'm paying like $20 a month for dylanwolf.com, TVGA, and chainsawbuffet.com combined, and I think last month I had $2 in charges for extra bandwidth or CPU usage or something, so we're a ways from that.)

So then, you agree to my fee?

No.

January 26, 2008 05:36 PM
I do not agree to your fee.

Sorry.

... five dollars and a pack of gum.

You'd rather give me five dollars and gum than one quarter of nothing? You're weird.
The Maitre d'
The Maitre d'

One-quarter of nothing

January 27, 2008 02:59 PM
On the off chance we do make money off of this one day, I'd rather not have written evidence that I promised you a third of it. Especially if we're at a point where we have to split it up between more than three people.
The Maitre d'
The Maitre d'

A third.

January 27, 2008 03:11 PM
Well, the original request was 30%, which is almost a third.

s/a third of it/a fourth of it/g

s/three people/four people/g

You just want to keep all the potential monies for yourself.

I'm one for two.
