Get Them Before It’s Toooooo Late!
Posted in Uncategorized on April 21st, 2007
Actually, I am serious about this. If you want one of the Top 1000 player T-shirts (Check the detail images in the store to see if you are on the shirt) you should buy one before your size runs out. These suckers are dwindling quick and we will not be re-running this same design again in the near future. The design has been a huge success so far and we couldn’t be more happy with the orders. I am sure posting this news story will accelerate the sales a bit but it’s the only way I have of warning you guys to get one if you really want one. Thanks again for your tremendous support for FFR.
Cheers,
Synthlight + the shirt elves that work tireless to bring you quality clothing

It says Spring 2007 Top 1000 Shirt, does that mean there will be a summer 2007 and others?

10th

Okay….Uhm. Notice at the end of the first portion of the picture of this shirt. There’s the screenname “Xaviour”
Then, if you go down to the next photographed section (Part 2 of the shirt), go to the third name on it. At the very top of the second photographed section, the name “Xaviour” repeats.
Why is he on there twice? 0.o

12th lol
Posted at 8:47am on April 21st, 2007
never had a comment this high up XD
btw, when i get into the top 1000, i’ll buy a shirt :p
Posted at 8:50am on April 21st, 2007
Jtehanonymous, then Xaviour is one lucky bastard.
haha It must have been literally him playing between when I did a database query for the first 500 and the second 500. That is pretty impressive.
Posted at 8:57am on April 21st, 2007
hmmm, when will the shirts be updated and have new players on the top
Posted at 8:57am on April 21st, 2007
Synthlight : It is impressive, but the fact that my name isn’t on the shirt because of it is a bit of a letdown.
I did however still buy a shirt…even though it was after drawn to my attention that I’m not even on the shirt in the first place.
Who knew being exactly in that place would cut me off? (Maybe?)

When are the next shirts like these coming out?
Posted at 9:15am on April 21st, 2007
I want 1
Posted at 9:15am on April 21st, 2007
i want one. but i have no way of buying stuff on the internet. i would be a subscriber if i could.
Posted at 9:23am on April 21st, 2007
It wouldn’t have made a difference. You were not ranked 1000 when we did the database query unfortunately.
Posted at 9:29am on April 21st, 2007
bigairman, the are reasons for this. We may sell 80-90% of the inventory within 1-2 weeks with some odd sizes like small having a few leftovers. The problem is that if we run the same design again, there will be less of a percentage of people that want to buy them because these people already have them. Typically we do our most sales for a design in the first 2 weeks and then it drops off from there.
So, with that being said. If we want to keep providing new products and keep people interested, it is not in our best interest to run the same old designs over and over again.

i could have sworn it was the shirt gnomes, not elves. silly me.
Posted at 9:50am on April 21st, 2007
The gnomes were union workers..
Posted at 10:02am on April 21st, 2007
also already bought one and waiting for it to come to my house
Posted at 10:03am on April 21st, 2007
I bought one earlier this week, and it arrived yesterday. I was pleasantly surprised at the fast service. I wasn’t expecting it until next week. BTW, my name’s on the back, in about the middle of the guy’s larger foot (on the right side of the image).
As for running new designs regularly, I understand that. Many people who want a particular design will get it shortly after it comes out. However, I think this shirt is a bit different since it contains names of players. In some sense, this is a personalized item for the 1000 people on it. Some people may not be able to get one now, but would want one later, if it were still available. I think there may be more reason to let this run longer. I’m not sure about making a second print run; if demand is high enough it may be worth it, but you’d have to decide that. Obviously the choice of what to run is yours, but I would consider that an item with players’ names is a bit different from something with a more general logo or design, and factor that in to the decision. Just my thoughts, take them for what they’re worth.

What about the Come Play Count people?
Are we still getting the old shirts then?
Just curious.
Posted at 10:37am on April 21st, 2007
sweet
Posted at 11:45am on April 21st, 2007
Holy crap…I went to buy one just now, and it said 77 available. So I went through the motions, bought one, and out of curiosity went to see how many are left. Only 21! Wow.
Posted at 12:02pm on April 21st, 2007
Fryguy…
there are 21 “Small Shirts” and 73 “large” Did you buy large or small?
Posted at 12:05pm on April 21st, 2007
dronak: 6 months or 1 year from now, we may do a similar type designed shirt… something with usernames on them. but if we ever did a run like this again, it’d be a fresh list of the people. no sense in re-printing old names and whatnot.
Posted at 12:07pm on April 21st, 2007
I Already Know My Name Is Not There )=
Posted at 12:11pm on April 21st, 2007
Ew..$20 for a shirt? Even if it DOES have my name on it, that’s fraggin’ expensive.
Posted at 12:11pm on April 21st, 2007
I REALLY WANT 1 WITH MY NAME ON IT
Posted at 12:14pm on April 21st, 2007
I bought one. :]
Kind of had to, because my name is on it and one of my friend’s name is on it too. xD
We are both on the front side too. Go us!
:]
Posted at 12:15pm on April 21st, 2007

Posted at 12:18pm on April 21st, 2007
haha, sweeeet, i’m on it! back side, on the right, inside the foot
Posted at 12:30pm on April 21st, 2007
Hey Synth, I have an idea!!! Maybe you could put top 4000 on a shirt! (or do this again later, like half a year maybe, idk…)
Posted at 12:32pm on April 21st, 2007
Ugh I’m so unlucky…

Posted at 12:51pm on April 21st, 2007

Posted at 3:32pm on April 21st, 2007
will this print be updated if people move up in the ranks?
(sorry for the double post)
Posted at 3:47pm on April 21st, 2007
Synth, you should have posted a digital list of the people, in the order on the shirt so we could have just used the find function in our browser, then found the corresponding spot on the shirt.
Posted at 3:53pm on April 21st, 2007
Gah don’t run out before I gather enough money to buy it! =/
Btw, jtehanonymous was in the top 1000. His name is next to the right foot, with a few of the first characters in the whiteness of it.

Darkrpodigy:
I am not on this shirt. I know the picture you are looking at, and during the redesign, my name was cut off.
I have the shirt in front of me. Someone is on it twice, and I’m not in any location at all.

Im sad i wasent in there. i was in the top 1000 right after the print =(
Posted at 2:33am on April 22nd, 2007
I think you should’ve had the front and back shading switched, because it is too hard to read the names of most of the first 500, and I think they deserve it more.
Posted at 3:29am on April 22nd, 2007
I DeepBlueSea on the bottem right of the back made me lol.
