Third Printing?

Post by Pog888 » Wed Jul 16, 2014 4:40 pm

As we all know, this project has been immensely successful with fans of Fallout: Equestria. I was one of those unlucky enough to sign up after the signups were over, as were many of my friends :fluttercry: . I am hopeful that there will be a third printing sometime soon.

I personally think that it would be better to print at least Pink Eyes (because it's finished and the shortest, so printing it would probably be quicker and cheaper) and then make the third printing. Probably lots of people are waiting for side stories now and as I said waiting for PE would probably be shorter. You should have a second (or third) chance, but the people who already have Fo:E and want to have physical copies of side stories should get at least one before. After all, some of them may be waiting for something like this from the times of the first printing.

Of course our printers will do what they want and are capable of doing (it isn't even sure if we'll get another printing of anything if I didn't miss any info) and I'll be able to live with everything they'll do (how couldn't I after that amazing thing they are doing right now?).

So, my idea is: make another printing of Fo:E, but first print something shorter for people who already have it. For you it would be a little longer wait, for people who want to have side stories printing another Fo:E would be a looooonger wait (unless the third printing would be a repeat of the second one, then there wouldn't be any text formatting... and all other stuff I don't know anything about).

P.S.: Sorry I'm not someone from the printing team, just a random guy who doesn't know why his reply is so long.

I completely agree. I had just discovered Fallout: Equestria a month before the second printing signups were over, and finished it as the signups ended. Almost all of the stories from the FO:E universe deserve the honor of having their own book. FO:E, Project Horizons, and Pink Eyes Especially.

I agree too. But i also agree with The Last Bottlecap.
I'm a Chinese and found the book project just several hours before. I'm sad, of course. But I totally agree to The Last Bottlecap's opinion. I should wait, and I can. Sadly.
I don't know whether there are enough ponies ready to buy a copy if third printing comes. So I'm not sure if I can have my own books of Fallout: Equestria. That is more disappointing, to be honest.

I don't want to repeat myself, because I'd write the exact same words as in 'Third Printing?' topic.

But I have one more argument: if at least one side story would be printed before the third printing, more people would have a chance to discover Fallout: Equestria, which'll make more people wanting to buy a physical copy of the story, which'll make the third printing easier from the financial side.

P.S.: If I made any mistakes, sorry. I always had problems with putting 'would' and 'will' in one sentence.

EDIT: It'll also decrease the number of people wanting a FOURTH printing after the third. There'll always be some people wanting to have a copy, no matter how many printings will be there. Rushing through printings will only make them harder to make from the financial side.

EDIT: First paragraph is irrelevant now.

I merged the "Third Printing?" and "Third Printing Interest" thread because they're basically the same thing.
If you're saying "I don't want to repeat myself, because I'd write the exact same words as in 'Third Printing?' topic." Then you know two topics are way too similar. :derpytongue2:

I agree, and would support a third printing because not only do I want a set so does my brother and a lot of other friends.
