My first post should probably be a lot more clever. Oh well. Bom dia!

Hiya! I've been reading for about 4 years, decided to register when I saw one of the cast of Futurama wearing a Goblins T-Shirt. I wasn't sure if anyone else had seen it, so figured I'd register to plug it. ^_^

Because if someone kinda famous (Phil Lamar) is going to show his fandom, it's only really appropriate that he get credit from the rest of the fans.

Welcome, all of you.

@leftie:
Sorry, due to "lack of time", the books are currently out of print (only books 1-2 ever were, anyway), and currently the Merchandise page is empty, which sounds like there are currently only the ebooks on sale...
There was a discussion about 2 years ago... Thunt wanted to bring it all back online.
I also wondered back then, when book 3 will be paper-published.... But I fear with the several projects coming up (G:AR coming to a design end,...), Thunt will not make the time right now to prepare the book sales again. Nor preparing books 3, 4 for a paper print. Even the e-books 3,4 still need to be prepared...

[edit]
Heck, did a forum search, and found we discussed the publication of book 3 MUCH earlier:
http://www.goblinsforum.com/viewtopic.p ... 255#p98625 , a post from Feb. 2014, hinting at an expected publication date for book 3 "later that year"...

@Krulle:

Thanks so much for your reply.
Yeah, I figured that was the case. I guess I just wanted my voice heard, so that if and when Thunt finds the time to publish physical books again, he'll know there are some buyers waiting :)

I sent him a tweet about this, because I'm curious too.
We're about to change our mortgage plan, so money will be tighter again, but right now....

[edit] an hour ago he sent new tweets, but did not reply to mine... Mine got swamped apparently....[/edit]

Hi. Chaomancer here. Long, long time reader and lurker. Probably still going to lurk more than post (limited time, you know how it is), but I thought dropping a line once in a while might be appropriate.

Incidentally, the Welcome Thread could stand to have its images moved to a new host; Photobucket isn't allowing hotlinking any more.

Yeah, it's a pity.

And welcome!

(BTW: moving all those pics in old posts is a lot of work, so nobody will do that.)

I'm newish. Been reading the comic for years, but with fumbles life hanging in the balance I finally decided to register and post. Hoping so much that he lives, knowing he probably shouldn't, but getting some comfort from the possible theories of how he might live from other forumites.

I'm a long time lurker who had been registered, once, briefly, so long ago that I don't even remember my username, lol.

I had a look around, but thanks for the offer nonetheless. I'm mostly interested in the games section, but I'll poke around some more.
