Ashcans

Excited, terrified, confident, generally shitting myself...

Holy crap! I'm going to be selling a game in a week and a half!

I'm just putting some final alterations into the text: Cleaning things up, fixing spelling errors, clarifying some stuff and adding a section back in which I somehow managed to leave out. Actually, two sections.

Prototype Ashcan mock-up

I have knocked up a prototype of the Umlaut ashcan. Dragonmeet is a month away, so I have a short while to iron out the kinks. Some things work, some don't, but in general the thing looks OK and isn't a total nightmare to produce.

Umläut: I have a new playtest document.

Guys,

I have finally got a draft of Umläut to the point where I think someone might be able to read it and make sense of it.

It's currently a Word Document and a bit of a layout nightmare. I can probably PDF or HTML it if people really don't want to deal with a Word document.

Ashcans: Printing options

I'm interested in hearing various people's ideas, options and opinions on various ways to knock out a cheap and easy Ashcan edition of a game. So print quality is not so important, but cost is. Also I'm working on the basis that the Ashcan will have a smaller print run than a "finished" book.
