Read this tutorial

I thought the same thing. No presumption of intent on the artists part, but yeah, could easily be interpreted that way.

Re: Sheep surplus

Any chance we will be able to buy this even if it doesn't win the derby? I really want this shirt!!

Re: Trivial Matters

I'm chanting, print, print, print, print, print...

There's nothing I don't love here - from the shirt color to the glasses, to the muted colors, to the subject, and perfect amount of cuteness (but not too much cutesy)...I love you guys.

Print, print, print, print, print, print, print...

Re: Dogs Playing Go

Ugh, how did I miss this... Definitely would have got my vote. I love it!

Re: Trivial Matters

This is super cute and awesome!

THANK YOU Gloryminn! I hope this shirt wins! I love the design!

Re: Suits

would be cool but the club is upside down. all other suits are correct, save the clubs.

So you Aussies are known to be red, then?

You don't know that the diamond isn't upside-down...

I agree. I hope, hope, hope it wins. Or even comes in second or third, just so we can get one. And a bag is a great idea! I am almost as addicted to Shirt Woot as I am to Settlers of CATan.

Re: One Number To Rule Them All

Woot Woot! Want want!

Re: The God of Thunder

Yeah I'm not sure how this is board game related at all but i do think its funny.

Looks pretty sick I don't think I'd buy it but still sweet design.

So SICK!!! I would like to get this beast of a shirt!!!

If this doesn't win, you should resubmit it again someday--it's just too amazing to let it go to waste!

I guess I was referencing an actual game of cards where all the cards and suits aren't always face up. I suppose I could have been more consistent though...

thanks alephnull2k1

Re: The Final Stand

The only problem I have with this shirt is that there are only 5 armies on the board. I know that it's just for the "The Final Stand" effect, but if you've got all of Australia, and you've only got 5 armies there, you're doing it wrong. End of story.

(BTW, pun FULLY intended)

re: trapped entry 62751

I voted for your shirt and I'm disappointed it wasn't a winner!

Is this going to get printed anywhere if not on shirt woot? Because...this shirt is still awesome.

Re: The Final Stand

I haven't played Risk since high school. Oh this brings back memories...

Re: Pandemic RISK

Whats so good... There's a board game called Pandemic and it looks exactly like this. Awesome!

Re: You win or you die

Comon editor's choice

i really wish this had won. i totally loved the concept and would've bought this shirt.

Re: Trapped!

Your shirt was very well done, it should have made the top three I'm sad this didn't make it That's two weeks in a row I've been sad that a shirt didn't win...I guess I've saved money though.

Re: Sheep surplus

Wow -- I'm sorry I missed the chance to vote on this. Love it!

I think it would be great without the words too -- I'm always dreaming of what I could have done differently after a game. :-)

And, it's an awesome _cooperative_ game.

http://www.boardgamegeek.com/boardgame/2655/hive

When I saw this one, I immediately thought of the Hive (game) insects playing Settlers.

Both are great games. For those that aren't familiar, Hive is more like Chess than it is like Monopoly, Life, Battleship or any of the other Hasbro games.

Re: You win or you die

And for Game of Thrones fans... there is a great board game already: http://boardgamegeek.com/boardgame/103343/

The 2003 game (revised in 2011) predates the HBO series, and it is much more than your typical Movie/TV series spinoff game.

You play as one of the Houses, and it's a brutal strategic game of diplomacy and warfare.

Unless of course you are packing a KEEN broadsword!

Re: One Number To Rule Them All

Re: Dogs Playing Go

I love this shirt and would buy four of them! I love playing that game!!!

Love this, very Woot!

Re: Trivial Matters

so where did this end up placing? Grrrrr. this shirt shoulda won!

Re: The Final Stand

Thanks again for the repost Dreadwood... I hope this wins for Saturday or Sunday. Who knew you would have another PERFECT chance for this resubmit.

Re: Not a Snowball's Chance...

Thanks everyone!

I...am...heartbroken...
If this shirt ever does get made though I am so buying it.

Thanks guys I love Pandemic, it's a bit weird cause it's a cooperative game, but I have so much fun with it and definitely it was a source of inspiration when making this design :D

Thanks for your sentiments . Maybe woot will love it soooo much that they just print it anyway!

The fact that this didn't win first place is proof that our society is going downhill.
