Codex Love USB

[Caim]

I do think that $30 is a bit much for a 16GB USB drive. For double that amount I can get a 1TB external hard disc and spend the remaining money on printing a troll sticker, putting it on the drive and donate the remaining money to the Codex for what is likely more than what is made on these things.

Obviously just a plot by DU to get our addresses so we can be doxxed later.

But seriously, I agree with the point about them being too big and unwieldy to be of use as an actual storage device, they would basically just be a collectible figurine. Also 16GB, what is this, 1885?

It's called being cost effective. 32 GB or larger are pricier. It'd be cheaper ($20 USD) if we just did an 8 GB USB 2.0 but if you're making a shit USB why not a keychain etc.. It's mostly about having something semi-useful with some relevant PC RPG related purpose.

Yes, but you wouldn't have a love USB.

Why do you not want a love USB?

And what if postage to me only costs $2 because I live in civilization, but costs $29 to send to ClickyClick Sborgenlorgen in Savagelandia.

It doesn't. International postage for a padded envelope was the same everywhere in the world ($2.75 AUD) - other than shit holes nobody actually lives in.

Make it interesting new tech at least. I'd get one if it was a wireless USB, or some bluetooth devise that tracked how much time you spent on the codex each day.

So that means our Australian viewers will have to pay extra?

As proud owner of the first original Codex USB stick, I have to underline that the USB functionality is absolutely negligible. I couldn't even properly use the USB troll with my laptop since the torso is too wide and would have blocked me from using other connected devices.

As alternative, it would be thrilling to have a Codex figurine like this guy (with bobblehead or not, I don't care):

Let me rephrase my previous statement: USB drive or .

You didn't answer why you want us to finance sending developers free stuff. If they really wanted one they can afford to buy one. I would rather any proceeds go towards helping little black babies. Helping little black babies all starving and addicted to crack like is their want is a much better use of money than sending it to ConsoleSven or other rich cocksuckers. At least send them something they'd actually use - like a gold plated controller.

Why don't you love Twitter pictures of our Trolls in developers hands /desks ? Oh wait.. it's butchy..

 

[hello friend]

waht about some Codex-themed shivs?

 

[butchy]

Why don't you love Twitter pictures of our Trolls in developers hands /desks ? Oh wait.. it's butchy..

I don't understand. What does being me have to do with loving pictures of trolls in developers hands? Are you saying everyone but me, of course, loves it and that is what motivates them to want to subsidize the purchase of trolls for themselves?

I would gladly pay money to see a picture of a developer like ConsoleSven smashing whatever consoles are hot right now, apologizing for saying he prefers to play console games with controllers, and vowing only to make crpgs for crpg players going forward.

I'd pay money for Obsidian to make Tim Cain the lead developer on another Greyhawk adventure module with the 5the edition ruleset.

I'd pay money to see a picture of inXile hiring Jason Anderson and making him lead developer of a new inXile section deveoted to only making real crpgs.

I'd pay money fund Guido Heinkelstein's kickstarter game.

I'd pay money for a real crpg developer to hire Leonard Bumdrowski from Blizzard to make real crpgs again.

I'd pay money for the same team that made MMX to make MMXI

I'd pay money for VD to dump his retarded and ridiculous recruitable mercenary idea for his next game and allow full party creation like almost every great crpg does.

I'd pay money for ecstasy and heroin and prostitutes.

I'd pay money for decent crpgs.

I'd pay money to change this site from being controlled by dimwitted lemmings completely devoid of originality and capable of only regurgitating the same old shit over and over to being controlled by sharp and knowledgeable people who have played and loved crpgs from the start like it used to be when I first started posting here.

I'd pay money to have my wife's voice box removed.

I'd pay money to anyone who could convince my wife to drug our kid's with Ritalin until the are immobile and silent, but alive, until they are 30 or so years old.

I'd pay money for a case of Milwaukee's Best Ice.

I'd pay money for laser hair removal on my butthole so I didn't get so many dingle berries



Etc.

There are a lot of things I'd pay for, but pictures of people holding trolls isn't one of them, no matter what the context is. If that makes me some sort of idiot in the eyes of the likes of the people who would pay money for that....all the better.

I'd pay money to continue reading your amusing posts.

Sir, you are a gentleman and a scholar with exceedingly fine taste. I salute you.

 

[Irenaeus II]

Yeah, I know that. But thanks for the compliments anyway.

Man, I burned a pizza so bad today, it made Wesley Snipes look white.

You forgot the option for I will buy anything with a Codex troll on it, whether it has no discernible functionality or is actively malignant, just to scare the people at work when I leave it permanently on my desk.

On that note, how about a Codex USB foam rocket launcher?

Edit: I'd agree with some on here that a Codex USB device is probably not going to get used much, so ditch the internals and present us with something we can put on display.

yeah!

 

[DarkUnderlord]

I'll look into figurine options.

 

[Andhaira]

DarkUnderlord I've always wondered, how many of those rpgcodex themed thongs were ever sold?

 

[Kane]

I'd order a couple if it were indeed trolls, the default troll is just too angry.
Scratch that, I can't read. I am on board. Please nothing written on it. Just the Troll. With a heart.

 

[Irenaeus II]

The love troll is a great gift for gfs and dates, codex PUA class take note.

 

[thesoup]

I don't get it why you guys are complaining that it's expensive. The point isn't to get a good bang for your buck, the point is to give money to DU for whores and cocaine hosting fees and sending JarlFrank to conventions to lick developers' feet, and you are just paying for the novelty and to support the codex, not to actually use a great dongle or something.

 

[Zarniwoop]

Heh. You said DONGle.

 

[Ranselknulf]

Do USB drives come with the ability to brofist?
