[Deptheads] First attempt at a flyer

[Eric Burgess]

In fact I had a great talk with Kristin Looney today about this subject
today. We laid out all the big events and there are some exciting things we
can do.

   - Back to the Future Game - This new game is going to press now. Kristin
   gave me links to a description and some great artwork to use. They'll bring
   plenty of the game so we can run an event (Neil - it is similar to
   Chrononauts and I also have a link with details to help run this event).
   - Also on Back to the Future, I asked her about a Universal contact that
   might okay us showing the movie in tandem with the event. She said they
   might ask for a fee there...but then they might also comp it and support the
   event. She asked if we want her to talk to them or just run the event
   ourselves and perhaps run the movie 'under the table'. I think we should
   have her contact them. It would be awesome if they support it! And if they
   don't - well, we can't show the movie...
   - Pirate Fluxx - They'll be doing playtesting for it, which is also being
   done at Origins and GenCon.
   - Fluxx and Are You The Traitor events - She gave me some terrific links
   for ways to run these events.
   - Special promo card - Kristin has promo Fluxx cards that we can get for
   the attendees. She could provide a thousand if we want to give them away to
   everyone. She also said a marketing message could be out on the back (it's a
   postcard) if we wanted to pay for the printing. These would be nice to hand
   out to everyone - she asked if we do a bag (maybe we should consider
   that...again)
   - Andy versus Everyone (as you RJ mentioned) - We should host this on
   Saturday and I think this would be fun to have in the foyer. Kristin said it
   works best in nice, visible spot. Talk about Play With The Creator!
   - Kristin loved the idea of doing a Looney-a-thon - like we've done with
   RGG, Z-Man, and others.

She did want to make sure that the retailers stock plenty of their games.
She said their events really drive sales (and all their games are pretty
much impulse buys.

Still working with Tom on which events we'll run for him.
