aww thats so sad ... what did you do? lol and whats an RDA? lol

i did nothing, just left him alone the rest of the weekend. i felt really bad about it, but it was just because i got carried away talking about something i love, stargate.
RDA (jack) got freaked out at a macgyver convention by some ######## fans, and stopped appearing at conventions for a very long time. he just started going to conventions again a couple years ago. everyone was very excited of course, but at the same time, people were like "don't spook him, we want him back here next year".

haha... there are some crazies out there. not that you are one of them

ok, here's what i was thinking




and yes, i am one of the crazies. for proof, see this thread http://forums.stargateworlds.com/showthread.php?t=35380

but what about Amanda? lol
that looks really efing badd a55!
you should do it!!!

Thats pretty intense. If you wanna go that big do it. its all you man lol... But if you have a show coming up. I would go the plain text route, its quicker and a good substitute for now.

hey just wanna let you guys know that James Bamford (the stunt coordinator on stargate for all three series) said he would promote it to his followers if he played it and liked it!

We can't possibly compete with that level of shamanic power!

haha, i forgot "TheGame" is (or was?) a dev! yes yes, I'm sure he will do just that! haha. Actually, if RDA finds out maybe word will actually spread about this game instead of just being confined to these forums and random google searches by wouldbe players searching for "stargate video game" ... thats how i found it lol

i've been wanting to do something with all that empty white space, but haven't justified the expense of professional magnets even for my business. i totally would do this, but as i said earlier, my color laser is broke and i can't float the repair. but maybe i will try to work out something nice but small and cheap for now. won't be in time for the 4th of july fest, but we have the city's labor day fest in sept. plus a dozen smaller events before that.

it'd be cool if he got involved and helped design action sequences for the upcoming sgr hand-to-hand expansion ( wink wink ).
imagine if sgr also had gameplay like fighting games(street fighter, final fight). you could punch, kick, roll, block, stomp, etc... if for example, you punch 3 times in rapid succession, you do a special sequence of punches that are not all the same and look super cool. maybe 3 kicks gets you a roundhouse???

Hey- Does FireSky Hock- T-shirts or stuff like it -where could Advertise while wearing it?

I would only do this if there was actual reason, like begging them to do the voice acting for SGR.
Other that that it's kind of breaking into their privacy, I don't think they'll appreciate it if suddenly hundreds of people start spamming their twitter accounts about SGR.

Have you ever seen a commercial with a famous person on it? Are they doing anything for the product? No, they are just promoting it, thats what we are asking for. So there is a reason chief. Also, do you not realize that they already have hundreds of people spamming their twitter accounts. David Blue alone has almost 200,000 followers. Most others have around 30,000 - 50,000 ... Therefore having probably about 10-20 (not even close to hundreds) of people from this forum post on their twitter accounts probably won't even phase them. Because they won't really notice any difference. But what they might notice, is that they have seen that post before, and maybe they should reply?

Also, they are actors, their privacy level isn't the same as ours, and if you don't believe that, then you need to read up a bit on the live of actors, or perhaps watch "ET." We aren't asking them to wear underwear with our faces on it, we are asking them to do something that directly relates to their job, a Stargate promotion, for a game that they probably don't even know exists.

And as they are actors, it is completely professional to ask them to promote something as they are asked to do these sorts of things in all kinds of avenues. Whether it be a female for an ad with Garnier or a male for an ad with Gillette (the best a man can get!).

Finally, you will find, that, when I post an idea on the forum it is well thought out and I am very good at arguing a point.

I'm telling you man for the 4th of July just print off that file I sent you. It will work people see it they will think "wonder waht that is" and check it out on their iphone or w/e. Just go to your library with a dollar or two, they probably will have a printer that costs like 10 cents - 20 cents a page. I think that file was about 6-8 pages long (can't remember), and print it off for anywhere from 60 cents to $1.60. Then go to Kmart and pick up those laminates, they are $34 here http://www.kmart.com/shc/s/p_10151_1...23x272xT ier3 (so it might be easier to just take them to a office supply store like FedEx office and get them laminated all together.

Then you just tape them together, and if you want the board, thats like 10 bucks or so, so total you spent $50 on something that will make the game that much if it entices 3 people. 3 out of thousands. Very feasible. If you have any stargate posters you could throw them up for now too!

No, but take a plain colored T-shirt, then use some of those "iron on sheets" from walmart (about 8 bucks for 6 sheets I think, used to be anyways) and then make one yourself! Just make sure you iron it just right, I always have problems with that. Cuz you can't see it til you take off the ironing sheet, and by then its too late

You guys are coming up with great ideas to promote SGR. I would love to see more players and the popularity of the game grow. I will do what I can to try and promote the game.

I have seen comercials with famous person, a lot.

-George Clooney and his Douwe Egberts coffee.
-Mr. T from the A-team, selling products on TellSell
and the famous World of Warcraft commercials, 'Whats your game?!'
-Matthew Fox, the guy from LOST was in a commercial about clear skin
few days ago.
-Ozzy Osbourne also in a WoW commercial.
-Andie Macdowell also in several commercials about clear skin and shiny hair.
-Adriana Lima and here lipstick and eyelash commercials.

(YES I LOOKED IT ALL UP!)

I did not read your block of text, but if your trying to convince me that spamming about this game at famous people is a GOOD thing.
Then I think you completely disrespecting peoples privacy.
Ask them first if they want it, if they ask you to stop, then stop it also.

Well thank you for your rudeness.

However I did read your block of text. While you may disagree on the ethics, it is a smart move. I will quote the part of my response for you so you can better understand.

"Also, they are actors, their privacy level isn't the same as ours, and if you don't believe that, then you need to read up a bit on the live of actors, or perhaps watch "ET." We aren't asking them to wear underwear with our faces on it, we are asking them to do something that directly relates to their job, a Stargate promotion, for a game that they probably don't even know exists.

The selling rate for this game is going down the drain it needs all the help it can get.

ah my post disappeared?? oh well. like I was saying, im going to stop buy that graphics shop to see what the prices are for 3x5 cards and stickers and bumper stickers. maybe even a poster. and ill let u guys know later. maybe even ask for hep on what images to get printer. and like the guy above me was saying, maybe even a shirt or a underwear.

haha, I think I threw the underwear thing out as a joke, i don't know if it got rethrown out there lol.

But hey, maybe if there are some of us interested, we could all pitch in and send you money, which you buy the stickers with and then send us back however many we paid for! That way more people can get it, and you don't have to foot all the cost!

@Spaticus. If you don't like spamming twitter, than find another way! Be creative instead of complain.

@zainea13

Am I the one being rude here?
'Polite' it's called.
Don't let me tell you another story about respect.

Were drifting off topic here, like I said ask them 'Politely' if they want us to do that or not.
Seems reasonable.

I'm not the one complaining, I just said what I think and you start yelling at me.

I see a Cease and Desist letter in your future =)

I did not read your block of text,

is a rude statement.

I think you are misconstruing my words, at no point was I yelling. Perhaps complaining wasn't the best way to describe your actions. Maybe "putting up and unnecessary front, where it was not wanted" would be better.

And once again you apparently didn't read my "block of text" because in the first line I believe I say and I quote "friendly and loveable spam" not "harrass them like there is no tomorrow" ... So I once again think you have missed the point because you cannot finish reading a statement which causes you to infer the wrong thing.

Finally, actors privacy is not the same as our privacy. Trust me it is different, I very well may have had more acting experience than most people at these forums.

And in my threads there is no such thing as off topic! lol

I think you should use less words... it is soo easy...
Still don't know where your going with all this...

I am arguing my point, but now I can tell, in a feeble attempt to win the argument you have stated the argument to be pointless. Very well then, good day. Please do not come back to this thread if you do not have anything to say about promoting SGR.
