Very generous. Thanks G!

Thank you so much. That's fantastic,and it was exactly 6 years ago today that I joined the forum. Happy 6 year anniversary to me.

I have just realised that some of you ( @Jett129 for instance), have not completed the form.  You need to do that, so that we can send you out the discount code in advance….

I'd have bet money that I had filled the form out on April 20th. Obviously I'd have lost,and lost out.Thanks G, for catching that.

@manufc10:

Love it.  I'm in, so in for one of these.

@Giles please make lots of these! 

I'm making as many as we can from the fabric that we can weave in time to make the shirts.  I reckon that is maybe 120-140 shirts.  Whether I take them all or not, or let Haraki have a few for Japan is not decided….

Still the approximate quota? I am thinking with the very generous discount (thanks again G!) the bun fight level on these may have just gone up quite a bit…

I just double double checked.  You did (sorry), I searched for Arthur, not Jett…...

[Jett129]

I know the memory is not what it used to be.So,I wasn't totally surprised. Thanks for double checking.

[Giles]

I actually ordered 133, but I said I'd take more if they managed to cut more from the fabric.  But there may be less, because we made a load of big shirts, that always throws the Japanese calculations….

[superfuzz]

thats a nice discount! Definitely will be getting this shirt now!

[veloaudio]

I signed up when the shirt was IHSH-GK. Do I need to resubmit for IHSH-179?

[Giles]

Nope, all 113 of you who have thus far completed the form are in the master spreadsheet…..

@Giles That's a wonderful gesture, thank you!
One question from me, is there any way to reserve/pre-purchase a shirt? I'm going to be in the Scottish Highlands with virtually no cellphone signal on the 14th and 15th and really don't want to miss out on this one.

[DrBabyhorse]

Wow! What a cool idea.

Nope sorry.  We get asked this all the time, with way more creative reasons than yours.  a) We don't know what size you will need because we don't know what size they are yet.  And b) If we do it for you, then the floodgates open, to those who will be on the Moon, Mars, Venus, top of Everest, bottom of the Mariana trench, serving time in Carandiru Penitentiary etc etc etc

[manufc10]

Very nice @Giles, thanks for the discount.

[Cutlasshound]

Thanks G! Now need to double check whether I filled the bloody form in!
