Lords of Olympus: The Don't Let Randomness Win Sale!

 

So, here's the situation: I've received word from Brett Bernstein at Precis Intermedia that effective immediately, the Lords of Olympus PDF is on sale at $9.95 (http://www.pigames.net/store/product_info.php?cPath=113&products_id=712)! However, rather than having a fixed end date, the clever bastard has decided that how long it will remain on sale will be randomly determined! So anytime between 1-100 days from now, the PDF will stay at this low price, before reverting to its original pricing, and he won't say how long that will be.


So, don't let randomness win! Show your love for the Diceless game by buying the LoO PDF now, if you hadn't gotten around to it yet.  This is a great opportunity and we can't know how long it will last!

I hope you won't mind but as a bit of a follower of Law in real life I am a follower of Chaos in my gaming life.

So I rolled d100, subtracted 1, and entered in my diary at that number (in days) from now with the command, buy Lords of Olympus!

If my d100 roll is lower or equal to the roll made by Precis then I shall buy the game, if higher then not.

Hail Lord Arioch, I embrace you..

Nice!  Way to embrace the madness. :D

I'm tempted, but I already own the paper version, and not that much of money (my bank account took a dive)
This is nice, though.

I was pretty sure the pdf is included in the cost of the "paper version".  you might want to check on that.

I've been on the fence about buying this game for a couple weeks, but am a huge Amber RPG fan...what's the possibility of getting a discount on the color print version if I buy the PDF now and like it?

I got drunk and was tired of waiting for a response, so went ahead and just bought the book. So much for saving money...

The PDF is included with either softcover when you purchase them directly from Precis Intermedia. Also, if you purchase the PDF, you can upgrade to either softcover at a discounted price.

Arrg, I just noticed the book is sold on Amazon...had I known this last night, I would have overnighted it. Oh well, what's the turn around on orders through your site?

Also, if you're waffling on buying the PDF, don't. Even if you never play the game, it's worth reading just for the content alone.

Books go out in 1 or 2 days. Yours is ready and hitting the mailbox tonight. It will probably take about a week to Texas though with Media Mail.

Just got it from the mailbox 5 minutes ago, so looks like less than a week. You guys should make a pad of color character sheets available for sale...
