Wanna play me?"

"(pretty wreath symbol) 900
:twisted: :lol: :P "

Or better yet, we need a BGA shirt that says:
"GO ALREADY!! IT'S YOUR TURN!!"
Just kidding XD
I like the "go already, it's your turn" (without the just kidding- kind of ruins it), or "What? Was I supposed to read the rules?"

Am I the only one who took the "I'm 900" as a joke, like for someone who doesn't know what it means, making it seem like you're 900 years old? (Or for games who don't know BGA, 900 points like 7 Wonders.)

I don't think they were trying to be overly creative, but just have our logo on stuff. He did invite us to come up with some stuff. (Which I guess was supposed to be emailed, not posted on here.)

The F*** T-shirt is uninspiring, vulgar and infantile.

One suggestion for T-shirt:
900 E.L.O. & Free
...a player is required
For the singles out there.

Hello,

Thanks a lot for your feedback & suggestions.

About the "F*** t-shirt" : As it has been said on the news post : this is a test, so we need to test things, and that is part of the test.

For the one who do not know the reference : the sentence is a parody of "F*** me I'm famous", which are parties organized at Ibiza, and also to electronic music albums. This has been commonly used for fun t-shirts, so it's also a parody of these t-shirts.

There is of course no intention to be offensive. The thing is : this is very difficult to create things that are funny for many different cultures & languages. For example there has been zero comment until now on the French forum about the previous t-shirt.

So here is the thing : you may find goodies that you don't find funny, or find inappropriate for your culture, but please keep in mind that this service is international and that we need to provide fun stuff for everyone. So if some stuff doesn't suit you, just ignore it :)

Also, this t-shirt obviously means "Face me I'm E.L.O 900", an invitation to confront strong players!

What else where you thinking? :roll:

An alternative to F*** Me is to have the 900 on top, and something like: It's not bragging if it's true. Something a bit more witty like that.

I still think it's surprising that the one shirt you picked to represent the site (that promotes not being super competitive/offensive) was a shirt that combined the two things.

To be clear, if someone said this to their opponent, would it be allowed or would mod action be taken?

Sorry but we never said that we don't want to be a "competitive" website.

For the rest, I already answered before.

Could be 'I'm over 900' alluding to that over 9000 meme? Or some other rephrasing of that.
