If anybody has a contact at Volition they can sweet talk, I'd be happy to transport any old "gently used" models directly to the ICHQ prize table.
Unfortunately, those bats are all gone or spoken for. As I understood it, with an exception of one or two in the dev studio, the rest were at THQ HQ when we went out of business, and none of them survived the fallout.
15 stripes for the years this site has existed, come August. 5 bottles of Awesomesauce for the epochs of Icrontic: hardware, folding, SVT, TF2, & the present. Well done on the others.
It's that time of year where I buy props for the Human Chess Game and then Amazon assumes I now have a 6-year old in the house and recommends things accordingly.
We will be using GroupMe again to send out group-wide messages about events and for other EPIC-oriented notifications. (I was trying to find another comparable app to do the job, but found no other, and have been assured that GroupMe has fixed its shit since last year.)
This means that if you want to receive these messages, you need to join the Icrontic GroupMe room. This can be done on any platform, even if you don't have a smartphone (which is the feature that we need which no one else still has). To join the room, just come to me at any time during the event (I'll be there on Wednesday at about three), and tell me so. If you have the GroupMe app, you can just join the room when I invite you, if not, you just need to give me your sms number, and you'll be added to the group that way. If you had the app installed last year, all you need to do is reinstall and log-in, and you'll be back in the group.
I know the group gets used for miscellaneous chatter the rest of the year, but please keep the chatter to a minimum over the next five days, as some people have to actually pay for sms messages still.
I'll announce this stuff all again at the event opening speech thingy because I know not everyone will be checking here. If you have questions you can ask me then. Hopefully, we wont have any of the issues we had with the app last year.

We just need a Icrontic sticker to slap on this bad boy.

Oh btw we have a logo now

3 Dogs: Snuffie, Rocky, Farnsworth

Mirroring the Detroit Flag I assume.

The real design for the newly-created Icrontic Flag has the division lines & Ivan in black. It's just purple/blue there to keep the shirts in 4-color.
When will avatars be pulled for badges?
Badges this year won't have avatars, similar to last year
Snuffie on the flag. It gives me feels. I miss that dumb, gross dog.
Snuffie is a legend.
Half-life 3 confirmed.
