Entropy Stew: Send the 100k poster a copy of Braid and a snifter? Ice Cream Jonsey: Hahah Ice Cream Jonsey: A snifter?? Entropy Stew: For the brandy. Entropy Stew: actually, no. Entropy Stew: a purple monocle Ice Cream Jonsey: There's a lot of money being left on the table when it comes to merchandising the site. Entropy Stew: I'll talk with my people Ice Cream Jonsey: Braid for whoever gets 100K sounds perfect. Ice Cream Jonsey: It's one of those "Feel Good" stories the gaming press seems to love these days. Ice Cream Jonsey: Although they have started to get cute with people losing their jobs: I swear one of them has a blog category for people getting laid off, and called it "Disturbance in the Workforce" or something Ice Cream Jonsey: Kotaku, I think? Ice Cream Jonsey: Which is a bit insensitive? Ice Cream Jonsey: Wait - do you already have Braid? Entropy Stew: No, I do not Ice Cream Jonsey: OK. I felt another Typing Contest "Cheater's Division" coming into play here, but that's OK. Entropy Stew: hopefully it will be something with content and not a "100k bitches!"

Ice Cream Jonsey: I'm all out of Detroit Lions material, it's the off-season. Entropy Stew: in Detroit, the off-season is all year round Congratulations to Jerry Whorebach, poster of the 100,000th message on Caltrops.com.
