Lukas Myhan!

Congratulations, Lukas! Stand up and take a bow. You click like a monkey. As soon as I am done assigning numbers to the contributors, developers and editors, you'll get the next number up! Probably either 75 or 100, but I'll know more in a few weeks. I'll try to make it as low as I can.

For the rest of you slugs, you can look at the cold hard facts below: Date and time to the minute! Click faster, dammit!

thank you all!
:P

Right now, it looks like preorders will be shipping from GHQ (not Key20) the 11th to the 15th.

To all preorderers

I can't do number requests, but I'd be happy to take recommendations for inscriptions. I remember most of you, but if we've met at a con, feel free to post here, PM or email with a gentle reminder. I'm an old man with too much game on the brain -- any help is appreciated.

Also, special SPECIAL thanks to Jason Valore at Key20direct for putting up with my insane requests. No other fulfillment house would do such a thing for their publishers. Key20 has been good to the Wheel, and we shall continue to be good to them!

Well, at least I get first reply to this thread! That's something for me!

Also, for the record, I put my order in first, but PayPal decided to be all screwy. Key20, as always, was easy to deal with...

I've said it before, now let's make it public. Give him 100, so I can get 101 which is a very cool number. Not only only is it a palindrome, but it's also the traditional number scheme for introduction to a body of material. "Why yes, I do have Burning Wheel 101."

Neil,

8:33 am on Saturday? What are you thinking? Are you even human? I'm starting to have serious doubts!

Hey, that's me! I think my parents were trying to save me the trauma of being known as Chuck.

If you do any inscribing in my copy, please make it to Tim instead of Charles.

Congratulations, by the way. I'm eagerly looking forward to many years of playing BW revised.

Thanks,

Tim

Huzzah! Thanks, Luke.

That'll be a nice step up from my position as Burner #223 in the previous edition. :D

I made the preorder this morning. The preorder number was 265 (4 days without looking the forums and that's what happens :( ).

Since it's unlikely that I go to the US in a near future (unlikely in the far future but you never can tell), Abzu would you consider making an european tour promoting BW? :roll:

your preorder number is not your book number. I tried to work that out with Key20, but we couldn't find a module to do it in time.

As for Europe: Rumor has it, that GenCon is doing a Barcelona show. I'm so there!

And, Dro and Thor and I are going to try to get to ESSEN (in Germany) this year.

Whoo! I'm number six on that list! 006. :) Write me a prophecy. Or something.

Germany eh? That's close enough that I might be able to afford a trip.

Geez, I wasn't even trying hard!

In lieu of a cool number, write me something cool, instead. Mentioning my legendary beauty (ha!) would of course be appreciated, but since you've never seen me in the flesh, I'll take whatever I can get. =) I like moons and stars, if that's at all helpful...

Very very cool!

I have an exceedingly odd setting Burning right now, and I think I have found enough people I can spring it on...

Having them able to buy copies of the game will be most helpful... =)

Cool, number 9.

Looking forward to getting my copy so I can write up my lizardman/serpent people settings...

oh, there's a tiny, lizardman surprise for you at the end of the book... Revised Hozrem say, "Consume this unholy land."

Yeah, look at him!

If I recall correctly, I was pub crawling through London's SOHO at the time. I think that qualifies as an excuse! :wink:

Its ordered now, so bah! :x
