I preordered within minutes of the announcement back in December so you may as well add me to the list! Order #82048

Glad to have you on the list! Trying to keep track of European orders and yours is the 5th of 27 on the list.
Some early critics of this proposed pin said it would not have appeal outside of the US.
That has certainly not been the case!!!!

Just made my july payment. I just noticed the payments are all numbered and they count down.. #89xxx, #38xxx, #29xxx ... with my order # being 41xxx ... some crazy numbering going on 
BTW.. when do we get TBL in the database? Noticed hobbit is already in there. I guess when there's some artwork to show.. which i hope is "soon"

Any idea when we get that early adopter T-shirt? I made a vow to go shirtless until it arrives.
It's getting little awkward at the office.
they are supposed to be shipping Quoted from sd_tom:BTW.. when do we get TBL in the database? Noticed hobbit is already in there. I guess when there's some artwork to show.. which i hope is "soon"
Sent a note to Robin about this a while back and didn't get a reply...my guess is when the Proto is shown or the first machine is produced.

You mean like this one? (btw, I ordered it, not free) I can send it to you RTR...you know, just so the girls at the office stop hanging all over you...

Sweet! No need, I will wait on mine. Plus all the money I save on dry cleaning.
I guess I don't understand why they want to be so careful about adding a new one. Even if a game never manifests, linking all the discussions of the rise/fall to the database still seems useful? Oh well.. Itll happen soon enough I'm sure.
Check my math dudes, but I am missing about 145 preorders. Let me take another look, they must be down there somewhere....

Jeff Bridges on His Upcoming Live Album and Revisiting 'Lebowski'

Wonder what the chances are that his band would do some of the tracks . his band already plays covers of one or two tracks in the movie, plus they have to talk to him anyway about artwork approvals.
also, hoping for an update this week.. Actually, I more hope for an update regarding BOP 2.0; seeing how they communicate / meet timelines with those customers is important to me as a TBL customer.
huh yet another TBL rolling stone article this week: 'The Jesus' related.

I don't know who is in charge of marketing but man I hope he has some input on the design as well...that f'king guy is a genius.
Quoted from Rarehero:I'm official now. IN.
Welcome to the party....Dude! F@&k it Dude, let's go bowling.
At a minimum, you can almost justify buying one based on the artwork. Ten thousand years from now, when monkeys rule the world, I am sure they will know of Dude. Even a nonworking version of this design should sell well as an ever lasting collectible.
If the rug we get is the same as shown on the backbox, the details in it are awesome. Love the pot leaf, viking helmet, toilet, car, shades, etc. etc. I only wish there's some way to integrate In-n-Out Burger into the game somehow too

Topper? LOL...should I go to In & Out and ask them for some bags and put LEDs in them? hehe
I saw that but it's gone from their website and speaking with Phil, I was told everything would be addressed in a newsletter yesterday that must have not made it out,
So from getting ourselves in order, since we've proven the order #s are all over the place. Perhaps email date/time of the preorder confirmation?

Quoted from burningman:Hey VIP's...thought I would share my entry in the T-shirt contest...(for all to enjoy)
btw..."Mrs Burningman" will also be attending the VIP party at Expo....
I just realized I hadn't gotten my shirt yet, I'll have to e-mail again for it.

man going to be hard to beat that. may have to change my strategy.
I'm IN! Order #75292.
Although I have a verbal commitment on a Bally Strikes & Spares project, this will likely be the first playable non-EM game in my collection. AND what a game to break the ice with! I have no doubt that it will be the crown jewel in my bowling themed line-up as well as my entire game room!

Quoted from RTR:Surely there are a few others out there - check the list dudes and let me know if I need to put you on it.
RTR...It looks like Pinbally_1968 is in as well
Quoted from burningman:RTR...It looks like Pinbally_1968 is in as well
Thanks Burningman - I have him in now. Another one from across the pond - so far about 20% of the dudes on the list are from Europe. I think that is a great sign!
Quoted from RTR:Just move Metallica and CSI into the "games owned in the past" section - and voila - problem solved!
Sorta what I'm considering
