Welcome to the Looney News update for April 5, 2007!
Please Take our Fluxx Surveys!
Kristin has put a call out to Retailers everywhere - if you have ever sold the card game Fluxx, please take our Fluxx Resellers Survey! We're looking for advice on what marketing materials we can provide to help your store celebrate the 10th Anniversary of Fluxx! The survey includes questions about the packaging and marketing ideas, as well as in store gaming and promotions. Please help us help you sell more Fluxx decks!
Consumers - If you've played Fluxx, even once, please take our Fluxx Consumer Survey! This year marks the 10th anniversary of Fluxx, and we're doing this market survey to better understand our customer base and to help us start making plans for the next ten years! It should take only 5 to 10 minutes to take - and we'll give you $2 off your next order in our online store to say Thank You for taking the survey!
IMPORTANT NOTE to Firefox users: Survey Monkey has a known problem with the Firefox browser, if you have easy access to another browser, you should use that browser to take the survey. You can take this survey with Firefox, but it has this odd jumping around display problem when clicking check boxes sometimes. It works, but it's annoying.
Andy Looney is Now Totally Available!
Introducing the UNSIGNED Andy Looney Promo Card. Andy got so many requests for autographs on a blank Keeper card that he made a Keeper of himself to give away to autograph seekers. Andy will continue to give these cards away for free to anyone he meets in person who wants his autograph, but if you don't anticipate ever getting to see Andy in person or are a collector who wants every card that exists, now you can order an un-autographed individual card because Andy Looney is Now Totally Available!
The card says "Not valid without Andy's autograph" and "Counts as the Brain." Up until now, there haven't been any non-valid Andy Looney cards in circulation, but now that we're making them available for sale, we'd like to explicitly note that if this card is in use without Andy's authentic signature, it does NOT count as the Brain.
This is a new regular feature where Andy talks about our games and answers questions on such things as rules, clarification of game play, tips and strategies, etc.
This week: Play EcoFluxx on Earth Day!
Earth Day Specials!

Please wish everyone you know a Happy Earth Day, play EcoFluxx with as many people as you can, and give pledge cards out to everybody you encounter. And remember - Looney Labs is donating a portion of the profits from EcoFluxx to help environmental groups working to care for our Earth!
