Maybe, as part of polycounts new 'image', we can set up a bartering system. We can put up 'swag' to be purchased/or traded for other swag. That'd give those that have too much crap/cool stuff to make some $$ off of it, or have the proceeds go towards getting gauss that third leg.
Fun thread. Haven't really shipped a game yet, but I do have a decent amount of Tribes:Vengeance related swag. A large drinking glass, beta cd, press kit, Tribal war T-Shirt. Not bad for just being a corporate approved mod team at the time.
