Awful Pennies List
Pennies are useless, right? Yeah, if you're talking copper, but we're
using Awful Pennies here, and they actually have value.
Here's the deal folks. We need your help doing some promo and working to
make the show better, and we're willing to pay for it. You see, we get in
free merchandise from people we interview, and we want to pass it on to you.
We don't really want to run any contests, per se, but if you do a little work
for us, we'll run a line of credit for you in Awful Pennies. Then you can
use that credit to buy this stuff. Of course, some jobs are harder to do than
others, so they pay accordingly. Here's the list we've come up with so far,
and if you have ideas for other jobs we can add, send them to us and you can
get credit for that too.

UPDATE: I am working on overhauling this
whole system. I have been keeping record of APs on my computer as you have
been reporting your task completions to me. Have no fear that they do not
show up here, there are just too many bros & hoes signed up for me to
list people here. I have the record, and if you want to know how many you
have, all you need to do is email me. In January, 2009, I will make an announcement
on the show about what has been done and what you need to do to get stuff
for helping us out. Thank you for continuing to help us, you will not go unrewarded!

You want the swag? You need the pennies.
Here are 3 ways to get them... |
1
Do the tasks on this page, tell us about them, we'll keep
score. When you want something, let us know and we'll ship it out to you and
deduct the cost from your total. |
2
New at this, but you want something and you want to be
sure it's here for you to buy when you get the Awful Pennies together? Tell
Nerraux and he will hold it for you for 2 weeks while you earn some APs. That
should be plenty of time to earn what you need for almost anything in our
prize closet. |

Are you the instant gratification type? We've decided
to allow you to purchase Awful Pennies. For every penny you donate, we'll
give you one AP.
