Disclaimer: None of us is in advertising, marketing, and I lost that lying contest at the county fair. Still, maybe we should consolidate ideas about how/why/what/where we should be advertising.


Target Audience?

Retrogamers (e.g., people who funded Wasteland 2)
Boardgaming/tabletop rpg/collectible trading card enthusiasts, and other devout fans of fantasy
College students
The indigent
Military people (they show up a lot, historically)
Hipsters (sigh)
People trying to learn English through what is arguably the most challenging fashion possible

Advertising Ideas:

Jolinn has a $1/adwords budget. We could buy keywords on search engine for certain terms.
Voting on super sketchy top mud sites (does this really do anything?)
Putting up posters on those kiosks at colleges (do colleges still have kiosks? Why aren't all students just on Facebook?)
Speaking of which, doing something with our Facebook Page
Starting a Twitter account [but what to put in it?]
Advertise on retro gaming forums
Advertise on D&D/Pathfinder/etc. forums
Something mobile? Not sure what.
Avendar: We spam now?
