Girls!

A coworker was making fun of how much time I spend on these boards, and he mentioned the fact that I need to go "get a girl"

So this made me think....how can ND better market Jumpgate Evolution to girl gamers....cause we need more than the very few we had. Now I'm not talking bad about the ones we had, I'm just saying we need tons more girl gamers in Jumpgate Evolution.

I miss Adara

Re: Girls!

I'm pretty sure he was telling you to get a girl for yourself, not get girls for Jumpgate. =P

Anyway, how about a new marketting slogan:

"Jumpgate Evolution: The Conflux Are Pink"

Re: Girls!

I'm really not sure how one would attract more female gamers to the Jumpgate series. I'm sure there will be some though... even World War 2 Online has some. Still, I'm not sure what one would do to actually make it more appealing to female gamers.

On a lighter note, a player named melody has a forum signature with a pink stuart (tank) with black spots and a stuffed animal on the front back in the WW2OL forums. Funny as hell.

Re: Girls!

Jumpgate had a few female pilots. Some of them were even pretty good at combat.

Re: Girls!

Thats because Women have better small muscle control then males, so they are naturally better at (most) video games.

Re: Girls!

We need Tarrs, Succubus, and Seven of 9 to pose for a picture, with them made up real well and some good mean, stare-downs at the camera. Behind them should be the Jumpgate: Evolution insigina.

Text:

Jumpgate: Evolution - - It's not just for boys

or something like that. The whole thing should look kinda like a big movie poster.

ps Oh, yeah. I need a woman too since I'm divorcing...so more gamer-gals is always good!!

Re: Girls!

Sorry to hear you are going through a divorce. If your ever in the Austin Area and need a beer, let me know

I was supposed to go to Houston on the 15th for a car meet, but I don't think my car will be ready

Re: Girls!

Yeah, Net, you told me on the other forums...I just haven't responded yet. I just have no idea if I will ever be in Austin. And right now I'm not really in Houston, I'm kinda north...in Magnolia actually.

However, I'll be moving within the year back into Houston, to get away from my wife, so she won't bug me every night anymore for money...

Yup, I have to agree with you there, Elp. Soooo she can't really put up that 'mean look', can she? She's just too gosh darn cute!!!

God....I miss her...

...I miss all those awesome flychics...Jumpgate and EVE were better games when they were around.
