Hardcore Dave says...

I've updated the first post with the Whiskey Media twitter post. Make us proud, Giant Bomb.

As good as all of these are, I wonder if the hypothetical t-shirt design shouldn't just replace "HARDCORE DAVE SAYS" with a giant, same-font'd "DUDER"

If you want a shirt let Daniel know, he's looking for ideas in the mechandise thread. I seriously doubt they'd print these though.

I don't think these would fit on a shirt, but will definitely work as posters.

I'm crazy! Also, totally wrong! Congrats again on an awesome project! : )

Good luck to everyone entering into the contest, there are some absolutely fantastic quotes in the Dave Snider backlog that have been dug up. Treasure the signed victory sleeveless shirt with pride, duder!

Well, they haven't contacted me so they may just be printing the quote.

Added a tweet button. God, that was a bitch to do. Twitter sure does hate spaces in urls.

@AlisterCat : This is the best idea for a shirt.

@Vager : This is the second best idea for a shirt.

It's not a direct quote from Dave, but as a Web Designer, I would absolutely love to wear this shirt:

Is this just image spam? I hope not.

I'm terrible at formatting these things - sorry about that - but the last one is the only one that actually made me laugh out loud. Not because I wanted to prove to myself I feel included in an inside joke (which is cripplingly sad when it happens around me), but because of the image of walking to class in that thing, and the quizzical looks I would get while doing so. Also, I'm a fan of the blue colour.

What I'm trying to say is, I don't think that even the brightest university student can figure out how the fuck fish can swim despite their clear lack of hands.

Some of these make Dave look like an a-hole because they're out of context.

Cmon Whiskey, fire up the store already!

Sounds like they are going to launch a big merchandise push for the big live live show live.

Sure hope so, my dollars are ready!

@MisterChief: My fear with a quote shirt is that if people don't like the quote they won't buy it so no matter what is chosen it has limited appeal. That's why I was thinking more a pack of 4 posters, with the 4 most popular so people have a range (assuming this could be a product, I never thought it would go that far). Like I said earlier, Whiskey hasn't contacted me so I have to assume that they're just going to print a quote.

But also, it's a lot more boring with just the Duder.

@WoodenPlatypus said:

@AlisterCat: Is there no way for peopleto generate their own Dave quote to have placed on a t-shirt or would there be too much moderation involved? It would fix the limited selections problem but would probably cause many more I can't think of.

The only way for T-Shirts to be cost effective is to mass produce them. A print to order service (which is what that would have to be) would be so expensive for everyone involved.

You can generate your own at hardcoredave.com but not reasonable for a T-Shirt.

I'm bored at work, so I put Hardcore Dave on a stamp. Dave is always first class.

Exactly! Either this or just the word "HARDCORE." Both would be first-day shirt purchases for me.

@takua108: They want to print a quote, according to their twitter. That might change, I don't know.

I know, but... only a handful of quotes in this thread so far are shirtworthy, in my opinion, and just having a stylized Hardcore Dave would be awesome enough for me :)

@Commisar123 said:

Is that a real quote?

@AlisterCat: No that's christian bale

@Commisar123: Oh yeah, I forgot about that thing.

@AlexW00d: There's some sort of xzibit joke to be made here, but I'm not going to do it.

@ZeroCast: how did you even do that?

Shouting out the Whiskey Media Radio Show.

@xanavi: Yes!

They have way better 404 and error pages than hardcore Dave, though I wouldn't object to the photo one being in there.

"This is America! The way we handle things here is to censor everything under the guise of political correctness" 
 
I'd wear that on a T shirt.

Awesome. Reading through the BluesNews link though I found this gem of Dave talking about Vietcong 2.

gross.

Someone needs to keep watch of the Daggerfall stream. giantbomb.com/chat

Someone already made a good one about blunt weapons, hope they post it on here in a while.

Fixed the sharing url breaking if you include an apostrophe.

Should probably cache the @young_snide twitter message that shows up as the default text so it doesn't say "Twitter is being a Bitch." so often.

Also, suggestion for hardcoredave.com: urlencode the "share" links so it uses "+" instead of "%20"
