Ripkoff

So I met this guy at a conference and he told me he was doing a kickstarter campaign for a card game he's doing called Ripkoff and a little able the game and I thought it sounde like a cute idea

I gave him my biz card and he messaged me the next day to his kickstarter campaign but strangely "in character"...i didn't have a chance to really check it out than say: is this an unwitting ARG?

so then he asked to connect with me on Linked in, but still in character so I said: why not...and here is the reply message I got:

TJ Ripkoff has sent you a message.

Date: 2/02/2013

Subject: Thank you for connecting with Mr Ripkoff

Dear LinkedIn Contact,

Mr Ripkoff expresses his gratitude for you having connected with him on this new LinkedIn thingamabob.

As you know, Mr Ripkoff has recently come out of cryogenic hibernation after 50 years in deep sleep, and now lives in a hermetically-sealed environment at the top of the world famous Ripkoff Tower (safe from viruses, bacteria and radiation). He is intrigued and slightly amused by this entire Internet apparatus stuff which has appeared in the meantime.

We will continue you to keep you abreast, should Mr Ripkoff find other reasons to contact you.

Thank you again for your interest in Ripkoff Investment Partners.

Sincerely,

Tim K Ripkoff
Chief Business Development

the game seems afoot

i visited the blog.

i watched the kickstarter.

he'c cute.

IM IN ...

no im kidding Razz ( or am i)

looks like it could be awesome. I have been missing the work with no pants so it might fill a little void in my heart for a business related cardgame/arg.

will keep a little eye on it and might even pledge... ( if i work out what its about :S )

bonus points coz he used the word schister ( or however you spell it Razz)
