this page is old... the mailing has
already happened...
but what is the web if not old out of date pages about things
that happened long ago? -Kristin 11/16/03
Guidance on who we want to send this
mailing to...
Any time we publish a new game we send out free samples of
it to at least a few people... but for the publication of Stoner
Fluxx we are working hard to do a much more extensive promotional
mailing a few days after the decks hit our warehouse.
If you don't qualify for a free deck, you can always get one
the old fashion way and buy one - we have started taking pre-orders
at our web site, so you can get yourself in the system to have
a deck mailed out to you the same day this mailing goes out (maybe
even the day before.) Or better yet - check with your
local game store and make sure they have some on order so
you can buy one from them as soon as they get them in.
There are four categories of people on
this mailing...
Media
|
|
If you are a member of the media, and would like to report
on this new game - just add
yourself to the list!
If you personally know someone, or were once yourself interviewed
by someone who you think might be interested in doing a story
on Looney
Labs and this new game - please get them onto our mailing,
and contact them personally and let them know to expect a package
from us the last week of November.
If you have your own database of media contacts that you contact
about the topic of marijuana reform - please consider sharing
your media list with us!
Just saying that you are going to write a review for one of
the free gaming web sites (like funagain) is not enough to qualify
for a free deck. Sorry. But if you review games on a larger scale,
please ask for a copy!

Activist
|
|
We have listed a handful of names of activists whom we know
and would like to send a free copy to just because - so if you
see yourself on this
list, please provide
us with your address!
Although we obviously can not send a free copy out to everyone
who is working to fight this war - anyone who represents an organization
that is working for drug peace is encouraged to add themselves
to the list and send
us information about your organization.
We are going to donate $1 from every deck sold to drug
peace organizations - so we will soon have a pool of money
to work with. We want to start by becoming members of any group
that is fighting for this cause.
Please read our Message
to the Drug Peace Movement, and consider buying a limited
edition signed and numbered uncut sheet to help fund this mailing!

Reseller

We started this
list with all the stores we promised to send a free Fluxx
3.0 deck to through their favorite distributor earlier this year
- sorry this took so long - but now you will get both a 3.0 deck
AND a Stoner Fluxx deck!
We added all our distributors, and a few more stores who actively
buy our games from us directly - but please understand that we
put this list together quickly and it does not mean that we don't
love you if we don't already have you listed here.
If you sell our games, add
your store to this mailing. We would love to send you a house
copy of Stoner Fluxx to demo in your store.
Any retail store who wants to start selling our games is also
encouraged to add
themselves to this mailing. You can buy them from any of
our
wonderful distributors or direct
from Looney Labs.

Celebrity

We have often talked about sending one or another of our
games to various famous people in the hopes that they might
mention them someplace that would get us some publicity.
We have yet to follow through on this idea... and it's looking
like we might not do it this time either, since we are having
very little luck tracking down addresses for even the short list
of famous people we listed on this
mailing.
If you know an address for any of these people, or know how
to find one... please let
us know. Or suggest someone else who is famous for whom you
do have an address!
If you yourself are someone who has an audience who you could
tell about this new game and our efforts to fight for drug peace
- please add yourself to this mailing. You don't have to be super
duper famous - if you can help us get the word out, we want to
send you a free copy to review and promote.
