  1. The Idle Thumbs 10th Anniversary Committee

    Don't forget I'm married to another forum member, who is more than capable of preventing that. If the worst does happen and I'm unable to continue leading this adventure, I'll pass the reins over to someone else.
  2. The Idle Thumbs 10th Anniversary Committee

    I've got a big post in the works with plans and next steps but I want to wait until the donation period is finished before getting too specific.

    Can the Vanaman bobblehead be posed with a dead deer? Sean's killed before, right?
  4. San Francisco Residents!

    My boss is good at airbnb, lives in SF and loves to help with this sort of thing... i can ask him for some suggestions if you have a timeframe and pricerange. (shammack and I live north of the city - not in it - because we're not rich)
  5. San Francisco Residents!

    I misspelled it on purpose, but I didn't dream it would result in that.
  6. The Idle Thumbs 10th Anniversary Committee

    A SECOND MAJOR DONATION HAS HIT THE FUND We now have enough money to do the diptych. Holy crap.
  7. The Idle Thumbs 10th Anniversary Committee

    We have enough funds for the Nick canvas! If you'd like to donate but haven't yet, please contact me within the next 10 hours.
  8. San Francisco Residents!

    Check out the Musee Mechanique on Fisherman's Worf. I've never been to Alcatraz, but then again I've only been here for a year...

    I think that would be a neat idea. Especially if we get multiple canvases made, we might want to use different thumb forum artists for them...
  10. Broken Age - Double Fine Adventure!

    Finished it this afternoon. Not bad at all.
  11. I Had A Random Thought...

    Usually you can self-refer, unless your medical coverage requires you be referred by your doctor. When I've asked docs for a referral the doctor has asked me if I have a doctor in mind and, if I didn't, suggested someone. If you're in Canada, I bet there's a helpful website that will tell you whether you need to be referred for mental health treatment. If it works like in the USA and you don't want to bother with health coverage you can probably self-refer and pay out of pocket.

    Y'know the Sistine Chapel ceiling, right? Basically, that, but with Bitcoin Idle Thumbs. (Not really.)

    Aaag, project creep! I have added a progress update to the OP, which I will keep updated. Here is the progress as of the time I am editing this post (201401191550):

    Unfortunately I can't find anywhere that can do my idea (take a digital image, print and frame it and add a plaque). Small stretch: Small Nick canvas - 10" h by 8" w: $30 + s/h. I can increase the size of this if we pass $30, up to our... Big stretch: Kotick/Allard diptych. The smallest size diptych available is 2 x 24"h by 18"w, and that's $125 without s/h.

    Oh, er, yeah, Shammack works at TTG so I'm guessing he'll go to work tomorrow and go over to Nick's desk and stand there for 5 minutes, just gazing into Nick's eyes
  17. The Idle Thumbs 10th Anniversary Committee

    If we go over by another $200, I can get a second one with a plaque, but the one I already ordered doesn't have a plaque and canvaspop doesn't offer them. Blambo: Nick basically looks like John Q Video Games. Which is odd, since Jake is Video Games, so Nick looks like John Q Jake Rodkin? (Nick is quite a normal looking white guy with brown hair and is of medium build and height.) In a previous edit I suggested Nick had brown eyes, but shammack (my husband) disagreed, saying Nick has blue eyes, and then - and this is the scary bit - said
  18. The Idle Thumbs 10th Anniversary Committee

    OK, so, basically, here's my idea for the add-on. Please tell me whether this is a funny idea. I may actually be hysterical from being in a near-constant panic attack for approaching 100 hours now.

    Don't fret, Tycho. The gift note will go to some outlandish combination of names to properly identify the recipient and allow for package reconciliation. The order form doesn't allow for such specifics. We're 95% pledged/funded for the cost of the item (including my own contribution)! All in less than a day! I am so IGN.com by this!! As I've already placed the order, any amount we go over will end up going to a separate purchase. I will happily elaborate on my plans for that later. Please keep your fingers crossed that PayPal don't decide to freeze my account because these payments are "suspicious activity" or some bullshit.
