All of my future Skullgirl merchandise-related giveaways will go here, for future references.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------


I'M DOING IT AGAIN, GUYS.

What? You thought I was DONE spending my money on this game?!
PUH-SHAW.
Fuck student loans. Fuck the IRS.
LET'S FUCKING DO SOME GIVEAWAYS.

Ok. So this time, I'm going to be doing a different raffle than before.
For the next 15 days, whenever you purchase a copy of Skullgirls and give it to someone that does not currently own the game, you get a chance to win a $75 gift certificate for Eight Sixed Clothing.

Now, I know you fuckbois are thinking, "BUT SHARPIE, I don't have $15 to spend on this game. I am a POVERTYBOI.".
Don't nobody got time for your fucking sniveling and crying shit. GreenmanGaming already has you covered. The game is currently on sale for $3.74 and a two-pack is even MORE on sale for $5.00! So, how about you start spending your meth money on some video games so you can win some fresh new swag? Huh?
Edit: Yeah. The deal ended like eons ago. Yall bitches missed your chance. You can still buy it on Steam for $15 tho.

Srsly.

People are wondering specifics, like "Hey Sharpie, when do I get to win?" or "Sharpie, how do I enter?".
Easy-mode.
Send me a copy/screenshot/email/snailmail/courier/small-orphaned-child-that-you-paid-to-run-all-the-way-to-Richmond-with-a-picture-for-me of the receipt showing that you bought the game and another showing the person you gave the game to.

I'll run the raffle via random number generator, and you can enter multiple times, which means BUY A BAZILLION COPIES.
The giveaway will be done on my stream on Halloween Night (October 31st, you fucking pleebs).
No, you don't have to follow me to apply.
No, you don't have to send my your information.
No, you don't have to sacrifice your first-born.

If you win, I'll announce it here ON THIS THREAD and email the winner the gift certificate (which will look like this).

There are currently five people entered in the contest.

Just a reminder that the game really is only a few dollars over at GreenMan gaming.
LOL. I LIED. THE DEAL ENDED LIKE YESTERDAY. MY B.

If you're having issues getting rid of the game, just give it to me and I'll give it to someone that doesn't have it yet.

If you're poor, rip you.
 
Goddammit Sharpie stop being so based, and by that I mean continue being based.
I was gonna buy like six copies from GreenMan but I guess two will have to do.

I'll do what I can, but I've already converted most of my friends to riders of the neverending hype train.

I've already met several people that really want the game and don't have it. If you don't any ideas of who to give copies to, give them to me and I'll pass them along. :3
 
I'll enter soon, it's just that my friend forgot his steam name and he's taking his sweet time getting it for me.
I might buy another copy and give it to you, but I'm poor as fuck so I'll see how that goes.
 
So who was it that won the gift certificate?
Although I did make my entry I wasn't there for that giveaway.
 
SORRY!
I completely forgot to update this thread with the winner information and such!
Thanks @Denizen!

The winner of the $75 giveaway was Soasti, otherwise known as "Some Asshole On The Internet".
He had three entries in the giveaway and his third entry ended up winning it for him.

Overall, we gave away fifteen copies of the game to new people who are actually STILL active in the scene.

Thank you so much to everyone involved for helping grow our community and support both Skullgirls AND LabZero!

I haven't completely planned my next giveaway yet, but I'll probably be giving away some more Skullgirl related stuff and an awesome new Skullgirl-themed fightstick, but I haven't decided yet.

I'd appreciate some feedback. :D

I don't have much feedback or help to give, but this is seriously cool! It's great that you've done so much and I can only hope that we can get these people to keep playing.
 
Wow, I didn't know this was a thing.

I've got an e-friend who I've been trying to get to buy the game for quite some time now; a drawing for a SG-themed fightstick would definitely be motivation enough for me to buy a copy and give it to him to force him to start playing!
 
um "to make people interested in skullgirl" 10/10

She's probably gonna make me build the fightstick once I learn how to build them :PUN:

I'd like to cohost. I want to practice white guy commentary with occasional exclamations regarding diamonds.
 
Not too sure what the plan is exactly, but I'd be willing to help stream as well. You Might want to call in on other people who already stream from other timezones like maybe @zeknife or I think @Muro or Mr. Peck?

Well then, prepare to be disappointed
 
For anybody wanting to stream, commentate, or even play: you can sign up HERE.
I'll be closing the form in a few days so as to start working on this latest hype-raising project.
 
I'd like to try my hand commentating; I have a mic, but have never used it with streaming, and have never done Skype before. Would anyone be down for a testrun in the next few days, to work out some kinks and make sure I don't totally suck as a commentator?

OMW TO HELP
 
After the raging success that was last night, I've signed up.
 
Also, I'm going to page @Night Phyre to see if we can get him to return, at least briefly, for this. If we're going to do this, we really should have the best Skullgirls commentator ever if at all possible!

I could see Saturday Night Salt having a one-night-only blowout, sure.

An SNS revival would be the coolest shit ever, even if only for one night!
 
Just a quick update, I'm planning on doing a giveaway for the Skullgirls custom fightstick sometime around Thanksgiving.

I have to save some money for a few more months since I'm moving out to LA, but after that, I plan on starting these giveaways back up indefinitely despite already running several SG-related activities I still wanna do more!

Stay tuned!
