I'm going to gencon this year like every other year, rather than cosplay I just wear a tshirt that represents my favorite game or character or whatever. inevitably, though, I get fools shouting at me as they walk by with some comment about my shirt.
it's funny when it happens, but gets tiresome.
anyway, this year I'm going to buy a white tshirt and on that tshirt I want to write the most inflammatory phrase possible. something that cuts deep and will be impossible to resist for anyone who wants to prove their "nerd cred" at a tabletop gaming convention
what should that phrase be, Veeky Forums?
Brody Walker
Pick a topic. ie. List your interests (so that you could actually hold a conversation if you wanted). Different groups have different shit they care about
What demographic in particular do you want to notice and care (women, guys, old, young, casuals, hardcores)
Ethan Anderson
"Why bother with tabletop when you can just play a video game instead"
Levi Campbell
Check your privilege.
Michael Martinez
Better yet, crossed out dice with "I would rather be playing Warlords of Draenor"
Owen Johnson
I don't think you understand my intentions, but that's okay
Jace Morales
>Han shot first > Matt Ward did nothing wrong > Ask me about my preferred pronouns
Landon Edwards
>"Women suck at gaming."
You'll get beaten to death within 5 minutes.
>"Thank God Firefly got cancelled."
Robert Parker
A big "FUCK YOU" might be fun Or "Gygax worships demons in hell"
Camden Collins
"There is no such thing as a gamer."
Aaron Russell
Yellow shirt Pro-Skub
Austin Wilson
>ROLEplaying not ROLLplaying >Pathfinder Isn't D&D >ANUS MANA >3.PF Is Anime Bullshit >D&D Next Is For Manchildren >If You Can't See The Problem, You're Part Of The Problem [D&D Logo] >PRIVILIGED
Mason Lee
Just write some variety of D&D edition wars on there.
4e > 3.5 is a good start, but I think ranking them all in any order will cause tears.
Carter Davis
Janeway is the best captain!
Bentley Evans
anti skub
Jose Reed
"D&D is shit"
Gabriel Mitchell
>"Thank God Firefly got cancelled." Dude, at that point you might as well claim that Mr. Rogers once molested you. There won't even be a body left to find once the mob calms down.
Nathan Adams
wouldn't "greedo shot first" be the inflammatory statement
People would be trying to correct you nonstop, since that was one of the things that got edited in later.
Isaiah Gray
"The Thief... was a mistake." - Dave Arneson
Thomas Turner
Arneson didn't have jack shit to do with the Thief, though.
Wait shit I got baited, that's a good one.
Lucas Edwards
I have doubts that the people at gencon even know who Ameson is
Cooper Butler
>Women -4 STR
Can't believe nobody mentioned this classic yet.
Owen Nelson
> Magnus did nothing wrong > Leman Russ is the best primarch > I'd rather be playing LoL right now
Henry Jones
See? The system works!
True, but picture the one guys who gets it and flips his shit.
Jacob Turner
Nah, that won't flip their shit hard enough. Go for the actual difference between AD&D stat maximums, which would be a -3 - this has the added benefit of triggering those raised by 3E and later where an odd attribute modifier is dumbass fucking design. 13 to 10 is a -1 to the actual modifiers used in the rest of the system while 12 to 9 is a -2 to the actual modifiers, for instance.
You could also go even further with the Arneson thing and make a fake quote about him calling Gygax a thief and a liar - you'll get people pissed off at you putting words in Arneson's mouth, people pissed off at you pissing on Gygax' grave (including some who knew the guy!), it'll be wonderful.
Anthony Rivera
Why is OP trying to commit suicide at GenCon?
Listen, life isn't that bad.
Especially when you compare yourself to the people who attend Gencon.
Adam Jenkins
>Life isn't that bad. >Especially when you compare yourself to the people who attend Gencon. that would be something to put on a shirt
Julian Baker
You play a dangerous game op. I guarantee no matter what is written on your shirt you will find one or two people who 100% agree and will think you are their best friend
Blake Campbell
>Ask me about MYFAROG
James Cook
>making friends at Gencon You really don't belong in this hobby.
James Garcia

Andrew Moore

Aaron Long
>Batman is Chaotic Good
Aaron Rodriguez
That actually triggered me
Michael Cox

Samuel Foster

Luke Williams
How about these:
>OGL was a mistake
>Ask me about F.A.T.A.L.
>I roll to seduce!
>Less role-play, more roll-play
Wyatt Gonzalez
Weeeeeew lad
John Sullivan
These name and trip are also a joke. And why I am anniying?
Ethan Stewart
Because you have a name and trip.
Austin Rivera
"Matthew Ward is a genius"
Michael Morris
I think I might be the only one here to get the joke of your name.
David Thomas
>4E was the greatest edition
Logan Evans
Better? :^) That's sad that Endless Space / Legend aren't quite recognised
Mason Jackson
Put something like "buzz word" or "line from classic game to show how cool I am", or "brand dork".
Adrian Jones
Skub
Kevin Russell
both of those are just pointlessly edgy and you'd get sneered at for being a retard, neither is inflammatory
Zachary Parker
What does it mean?
Jeremiah Phillips
Do you live under a fucking rock?
MAKE AMERICA GREAT AGAIN
Samuel James
Virtualoptim is not well remembered around here, so changing 'virtual' to 'concrete' is not clever and won't win you any friends, even if you are a different person. Just stop.
Isaac Miller
I've never heard that as an acronym before; is it popular among trailer trash or something?
Liam Parker
but muh endless spes reference and just attracting precious attention
