A dwarf fortress / Bay 12 games store!?
« on: May 10, 2010, 07:09:50 pm »

Who else would love to see a bay 12 games store?  Maybe dwarf fortress themed mouse pads, t shirts, etc.  I think a lot of users could justify buying a mouse pad even if they aren't willing to straight up donate.

I'd buy a white shirt with gigantic gray letter-Es all over it and see if anyone got the joke.

There could be tons of 'inside jokes' so that DF'ers could identify each other.

I want a T-shirt with a huge red &

Or an aqua alpha letter.

Or a bunch of gray cs

I really want that one as a "when". I want "grubs", and "virgin woman" to turn into a dragon. and monkey children to suddenly sprout wings. And I want the Dwarven Mutant Academy to only gain their powers upon reaching puberty. I also have a whole host of odd creatures that only make sense if I divide them into children and adults.

Also, tadpoles.

Maybe captioned with "Horrifying screams come from the darkness below!"

I'd be interested in a coffee mug with a purple dwarf "smiley" on it.

So everyone knows I am nobility and do no work, of course.

I'd run out into the middle of a war zone for a pair of Dwarf Fortress themed socks.

How about a shirt with a purple dwarf on it, captioned

Ironblood didn't use an axe because he had to, he used it to be kind.

And on the back:

And right now, he wasn't being kind.

With a massive bloodstain on it.

Yeah, this comes up pretty regularly.

I'd still love a black polo t-shirt with a tiny embroidered curses dwarf in place of a horse and player logo.

That would be great.  There have been quite a few threads with suggestions for merchandise.  I wonder what the threshold is for making something like that worthwhile?  A lot of webcomics have stuff for sale, and I've got to think that the DF fanbase is at least as large and rabid as that of Dr. McNinja.

There is a shirt already: http://www.topatoco.com/merchant.mvc?Screen=PROD&Store_Code=TO&Product_Code=3PS-DORF&Category_Code=3PS

I have seen people wearing it. It looks stupid.
