Monday AA update: shirts on AA

Robot Side Sale, short-sleeve shirts:
Let's Play (men)
The Power of Giving (men)
The Sex Drugs (men)



The Power of Giving is soooo tempting. That's an awesome shirt, but I'm trying to cut back on shirt buying. Damn you Woot for bringing out such great old shirts these past few side sales!

This is the most action we've had in a reckoning for a while. It's a shame because I don't want to see any of the three shirts that are fighting for survival to go.

Yeah, so there's that...

If it helps any, They See Me Rollin' is the least likely to survive next week and Family Portrait is the most likely. Granted, I think any of the three face a tall order to survive 244...

Reckoning Broken Again?
For some reason when I click on designs in the Reckoning Danger Zone, it takes me to Today's Shirt instead. I had to click on BLT Forever 4 times before it finally took me to the actual shirt. Several others, did the same thing. I haven't checked them all, but this could affect the final standings if folks are trying to buy things this late in the day.

Woot---please fix asap!

Looks like the difference between 20 and 21 would have been either a tiebreaker or 1 shirt. Since Narfcake's 11:35 update Family Portrait was +9 and Nyan's Dream was +10, yet they flipped spots.

Well, it's time again for us to say "adieu" to seven shirts no longer fit for this world. We've had some laughs, we've shed some tears, but in the end we just weren't making enough cash so it's time to go. You can stop by and pick one up all day today if you like, but at midnight tonight we're flipping the switch and installing a whole new set of shirts. So stop by and pay your respects, because it's all over for:

They were essentially tied, and Rollin' was one behind that. So yet again, one sale for 21st would've made a difference.

I have those two tied, and They See Me Rollin' one shirt behind. Family Portrait made up a lot of ground yesterday and this morning...

I don't know how to feel. I haven't been around here almost the entire day, but I wasn't worried cause I thought I had no chances. But now I see that you're saying that it was a one shirt difference and that it would have had a chance! Arrrrrrrrrrr hahahah

Anyway, thanks for amazing journey, you are great I had so much fun and I hope to be reckoned more often :P

Can you copyright just that shape? Seems to me that would be like getting the copyright for the skeleton of a trilobite or hermit crab. But I am not an IP lawyer. Maybe someone found an identical shirt already on sale somewhere.

It's too bad, Xenophile was going to debut in the top 10 tonight....

A quick search showed a very similar shirt for sale at Red Bubble. Maybe that's why?

It has to be a similar shirt [I think], since it is a clear parody and should be covered by copyright law. Plus [and it's been awhile since I've seen the movies] it doesn't appear to be a duplicate of the EXACT parasite from ALIEN/S.

I found links to the shirt, on blue, back on March 7th. I'm pretty sure it was the artists work (his Bio link goes to teh same store page) and the shirt isn't for sale there anymore, but I thought that "never been sold as a t-shirt" was a requirement for all designs.

Thanks, Narf! I saw that you got the first woot on this one, that made me smile. I was really happy with how it turned out as well. Woot did a great job with the print and they are also great at cleaning up my designs. No matter how much I try to be neat, I always find some sloppy coloring or linework after I send the print file. I hope it doesn't drive them crazy.

Well... now I'll have no shirts up there. I guess I better make some more.

Here's hoping Trojan Cat makes wins the derby this weekend. It'll look nice along side my Makin' Bread and Jabba the Fluff shirts. I'm giving serious consideration to scooping up Free Hugs before it's gone too. Picked a bad week to get a new laptop...

Does some one have a run down on what is still being printed on AA? I'm thinking of nabbing a Reckoned shirt, but want to know what I'm in for before I do.

I assume that Ochopika's octopus monster is, or else Narf wouldn't be attempting to snipe me--errr, I mean, Going for the goal of title "wooter to blame for sell out" on that one.

This list is the best that I've got, but I think several shirts/sizes are going to turn over from AA to Anvil at midnight.

ochopika, I LOVE "This Is How I Roll"! One of my current favorites; it makes me smile every time that I see it. I'd buy another one if it were still on AA, but I could wear the Anvil WS as a dress and still be modestly garbed. Thank you for the goodbye card! May I print it out and put it up by my computer?

I barely completed the transaction in time, which has to be done before the door closes.

FWIW, this is my 6th time pulling the stunt. Yeah, it's getting pointless, but since I could, I still do.

But isn't the red robot shirt currently available on Anvil? I saw that it was red, and was going to snatch it up because I assumed it was on AA, since it was red. But it's Anvil. Worrisome.
