    So get this, The Oatmeal http://theoatmeal.com/ made a new website less than 24 hours ago!
    For those who don't know, The Oatmeal is a site ran by Matthew Inman; an ex-web designer who started making webcomics a couple of years ago. Since then, he's amassed a viewership into the millions! (And made tons of great comics along the way; I bought his book!)

    What does this have to do with KAG, though?

    Well today, on the front page of his website, The Oatmeal posted a news bulletin spreading the word on his new website. http://bearfood.com/
    It's essentially a link sharing website, people post links, others thumb them up. The most popular get the front page.

    What are your intentions?

    To use his site, you don't need to make an account. You just go and 'like' whatever suits your fancy. I figured it'd be a great way to get a great game out to the public.

    What do I do?
    Follow this link, http://bearfood.com/l/604/king_arthur_s_gold and press the 'like' button; comment too, if you want. If enough of us like it, it'll get promoted to the front page for millions to see. That's a great way to get KAG some new players, eh? Promote a great game to a wider audience, who wouldn't like that?

    EDIT:
    The picture I made for those interested. [​IMG]

    Liked! This is a great idea, and a smart way to take advantage of the site's newness.

    Hopefully we can get this promoted, if any of you read the 'what is this' page, submissions sit in the queue for 24-48 hours; and depending on the amount of likes/comments it'll either get promoted to the front page or buried.

    We don't want it buried ;<

    Also, if it gets to be one of the highest rated submissions, we have a chance of getting KAG promoted on The Oatmeal website too! Even more publicity. :migrant:

    Not a great time to promote kag tbh, should wait til it's stable again lest you scare some people off, either way though liked.

    Well, the idea was that the site is brand new, so a good chunk of Oat's fans haven't seen it yet; and when they go to check it out for the first time, they'd find KAG. You do make a good point tho, oh well~
