Holy crap guys! I just had the best idea!
 

Okay, so we're all aware we don't have many users. I think we've been gonig about attracting new ones the wrong way.

I have a proposition here. We make a series of enticing posters with our website address clearly printed on them and then all of us go and put them up in our towns and surrounding towns/cities.

Like for instance, I could hit Vancouver and all of you guys would have to get major cities you live by and so on.

First step is making up some great poster ideas. Then we should make whatever site changes we need to that gear our site towards this new networking venture and encourage people to stay.

If we work together, we can make this happen.

Someone was actually doing that around my town not too long ago for another website.

I say we try it.

Re: Holy crap guys! I just had the best idea!
 

Let's start coming up with poster concepts.

Re: Holy crap guys! I just had the best idea!
 

Well, I'm sure something Dyne could do in Photoshop would be cool, but we would also have to print them off in fairly mass quantities - so it couldn't be too colorful.

Re: Holy crap guys! I just had the best idea!
 

Hm, well they couldnt be very big because my printer isnt very big...

but good Idea I think.

Re: Holy crap guys! I just had the best idea!
 

I remember when I worked at one of gekko's sites we had the idea of going to news stands and sticking flyers or stickers advertising the site in various game mags.

Re: Holy crap guys! I just had the best idea!
 

We need to have mysterious slogans that don't reveal in any way exactly what Gametavern is. Then people will want to know.

Possible slogans:

The Spice Must Flow.

Join the Revolution. <---also alludes to Nintendo for a nice bonus.

Come and find us.

We're waiting for you.

Let's keep this our little secret.

Yes. (in giant bold letters)




I'm sure we could come up with more. If we can make them somewhat visually enticing and use several different slogans, I'm sure we can attract some people to come here.

Re: Holy crap guys! I just had the best idea!
 

"No, really."

"On days that end in why."

"Please"


"Your mom says we were good"


"China still cool"

To be honest I don't think GT is worth it. It's boring here. We don't discuss any games. Half of the general threads are loaded with tensions between members.

Re: Holy crap guys! I just had the best idea!
 

That's a very cancerous attitude. Can we get a surgeon in here to remove it?

Re: Holy crap guys! I just had the best idea!
 

That's a fabulous idea! I'll even work on GT ads in various languages. I've posted it on myspace for all my friends to go to that don't want to die a horribly gruesome and hideous death. :D

Re: Holy crap guys! I just had the best idea!
 

Game Tavern el sabor caliente!

Re: Holy crap guys! I just had the best idea!

Re: Holy crap guys! I just had the best idea!
 

DM, I love that.

So much.

Re: Holy crap guys! I just had the best idea!
 

lol, Gametavern has been looking for ways to get more members forever.

Re: Holy crap guys! I just had the best idea!
 

Where did you come from?

Re: Holy crap guys! I just had the best idea!
 

Haha that certainly would get people's attention.

But you know, if we REALLY REALLY wanted more members we could do it. All I'd have to do is buy some expensive ad on a major gaming site and we would be flooded with hits. I think we'd lose a little something in the process though. The quickest way to gain a few more members is probably through affiliation or link-sharing. We're looking into that at the moment but first we need to redefine what our goals are.

Re: Holy crap guys! I just had the best idea!
 

****, the shackles are broken...

Re: Holy crap guys! I just had the best idea!
 

I like the community of people we have now, there are no major jerks or spammers or anything like that, everyone is respectful and get along for the most part. My main concern is if we attract new members that are unpleasant or what not.

Re: Holy crap guys! I just had the best idea!
 

I just decided to stop by...I've had a slow summer, so I think I will stop by more.

Re: Holy crap guys! I just had the best idea!
 

Cool, like the flag btw.

Re: Holy crap guys! I just had the best idea!
 

Yeah, its pretty awesome.

Re: Holy crap guys! I just had the best idea!
 

Any other poster ideas?

Dyne....

Re: Holy crap guys! I just had the best idea!
 

I think he's gone for a while starting tomorrow.

Re: Holy crap guys! I just had the best idea!
 

Eh, NDose went downhill with that rush from the IGN affiliate thing...um...of course not all you fine folks who found it that way...

Re: Holy crap guys! I just had the best idea!
 

Hahah, was about to suggest, but you beat me.

Re: Holy crap guys! I just had the best idea!
 

I actually found IGN when NDose affilated with them

Re: Holy crap guys! I just had the best idea!
 

I'm here; my dad's picked motels that all have wireless internet.

As for posters, I don't have any specific ideas, but I can start churning stuff out.

The boobs one could actually work.
