I'd thought about that too, but Global shipping (which there seem to be a significant number of non-US players) wouldn't be fun.  And you would also be with a set number of Sizes and Styles.  And being "stuck" with a batch of shirts if they aren't selling could lead to a messy problem (do you also run into potential profit/tax stuff?).  Then factor in refunds or whatever other problems...

I think that's something to keep in mind.  There may be a "WarCore" group that wants one/buys one but beyond that, my guess is that it would potentially be few and far between sells.

Yes that would be my worry... stuck with 100 small t-shirts that noone wants. With shipping not really practical.

Where do I send my $20?!
You only live once boys and it wouldn't be such a "Risk" as you could charge enough to take care of the issues, and place orders appropriately....
Also, if possible, I would like to be able to get addresses and send them to players I bump up against.....
Just a thought

(Also, the shirt could have "Online Risk" and the website on it to promote further interest.
I found this site by accident and it's been crack ever since, hasn't it?

Would be cool if you could purchase them for other people (ie tournament wins or something).

how bout this: we come up with something to try a test of zazzle. a couple of us could spend the money on a shirt; take it home wear/wash it for a week and report back on the quality. then we can think about more for everyone else. you wear it and wash it 3 or 4 times, you'll be able to see if its going to break down quick like an iron on, or hold up pretty well. for under $20 i'll give it a try depending on the design.

wouldn't mind having 'weathertop' across the top. maybe something like this across the bottom on the back:

Feeling...Risky?
www.wargear.net

Using Risky as short for RiskyBack really makes me want to avoid anything with "Feeling" and "Risky" in the same sentence. :p

I'm offended and agree with this all at the same time

while i thought that at first too, i can try to detach myself from RB enough that i can appreciate the simple catchiness of that phrase. but i definitely understand where you're coming from. but then again we can't have the fear of alluding to RB stifle all our creativity:

"wanna Risk it all?"
"Orbis non sufficit"
"Would you like to play a game?" <- in terminal script font!
"World domination is only for the Risky" or "for those that would Risk it all"
"it's a Risk-y thing"
"Risky business"

..or maybe something like this?  ..spells it out a little more.

If you're looking for corny sayings I can't pass up my avatar. Could do something like

WarGear.net, Play at your own 'Risk'

How about a series of silhouettes of famous and infamous war-type people from history (Patton, Hitler, etc.) with a saying like:

Sun-Tzu takes risks at:

(head-shot)

WarGear.Net

WarGear.Net

I like the idea, but for some paranoid reason I am risk adverse to using the word risk.

maybe 1 or 2 of these are T-shirt worthy

Front: Gear'd 4 WAR

Back: WarGear.net

Front: WarGear.net

Back: Been Eliminated lately?

Front: You thought Sun-Tzu had game...

Back: WarGear.net

Front: Gear up! ya limp wristed dice tosser

Back: WarGear.net

Front: yeah, I think my dad used to play board games...

Back: WarGear.net

Front: WarGear.net

Back: No Asshole! Controlling Australia is better then South America! Same bonus but one border.

I like this one.

WarGear.NET - Feeling Board?

wargear.net - Take a risk.
and on the back, I certainly like the:
"No Asshole! Controlling Australia is better then South America! Same bonus but one border."
even though I do not agree.

Maybe a faux work shirt with phrases like:
"Elimination Specialist"
"n00b Elimination Services"
or
"Antastic"

Hehe. "Antastic - No we have no idea why it's so popular either."
