[Guigsy]

i voted barbie pink, would be most amuseing.

although black would probably be better ;)

[lyn]

I'm just going to confuse things now

these are the colours that are currently available
t-shirt colours here (http://www.prestigeleisure.co.uk/product.asp?productcode=SS28M)
if these colours arenot suitable then i can get other colours but they won't be at a super discount price. (Last years price was £4 each.)

[Gunsmith]

im going to be boring and wear my standard i series shirt

however we may be having a visit from the pope at some point ;)

[no friends]

i can see you know, walking down towards alton towers dressed in barbie pink coloured t-shirts.....................

hehe

[her0n]

I vote Burgundy..

:)

[Aardvark]

You can all fo if you think I'm going to wear black in the blazing sun...

Seconded! :)

[*Tsunami*]

Do we all have to wear the same colour?? If not, a mix of different colours with the same logo's on might look more suitable :)

[Guigsy]

i guess if u did that u wouldnt get a big discount

[Killy]

i don't care, just hit me with whatever colour you want and i'll wear it...

[Murray-Mint]

But it's pink!

[Limi]

I actually want a wearable t-shirt after AT so royal blue or something sensible please.

[Aardvark]

Well, we don't actually have pink as an option. So I've been sensible and gone for royal blue, although I do like that purple one. Like a fleet of Barneys, we shall terrorise the park! :D

[Boffykins]

Oooooooooooh yes, either Burgundy or Royal Blue and I'll be happy

[Wizzo]

barbie pink just ain't gonna happen. Royal Blue or Sky Blue thx gg wp.

[Mingtea]

come to think of it, do you even change your ****ing clothes at an i-event... :)

(or is the entire suitcase taken up by Verthandi)

[gemz]

Everyone will look gay wearing pink

i think nikumba would have cried ;)

[Guigsy]

that was the point :p

[Optimus]

remember, gemz is mistress of the bleeding obvious...

and Gunsmith, yus, I do remember now... it caused part of the Travelodge video to white out when you were standing under any lightsource :)

[Aardvark]

You do realise that sky blue is even gayer than pink? At least pink is WAY over the top and can be considered a joke :)

[Guigsy]

thats true

[Optimus]

well, isn't pink 'flamboyantly' gay whilst sky blue is 'I just came out, leave me alone' gay

[Eva_01]

omfg go for burberry ;) keep the townie scum inside all of u happy :D

but i vote Dark Blue

[her0n]

Burgundy is neither purple or townie... it's dark red you peens! :o

[Towneh]

I vote we all have different Global Hypercolour T-Shirts that change colour with heat.

*edit*

Perhaps we could splash out a bit extra and get tshirts made with this material?

http://forums.multiplay.co.uk/showthread.php?s=&threadid=25878

*edit*

[Aardvark]

I'm thinking 'i-series network peon blue', it isn't THAT dark to be painful in heat, but doesn't automatically label you as being gay :)

[Aardvark]

I know what colour burgundy is dear. I think you'll find my purple suggestion was entirely separate and going off the list that Lyn gave :)

[afty]

[Killy]

*cough* ;)

[afty]

I will bring, and wear, my sky blue shirt.

[Switch`]

i second this.
Pe0n blue is my vote

[Strych]

"Blueshirt" Blue is acceptable, sky blue is also good.

[Mingtea]

network... peon?

you're on my list :)

[Aardvark]

I have other descriptions if you wish, do you REALLY want to hear them? :D

[Elbonio]

dark blue will have the same problem as black


bloody pink you wimps

[Guigsy]

PINK

[lyn]

As i stated before i can do pink but it is going to cost more, If you have sky blue or blue shirt blue then the shirts will be £5 each.

If you want pink they are going to be £7.50 each

So the chose is yours

[her0n]

What about burgundy?! :(

[lyn]

Only 2 people said burgundy

[Strych]

Combination of votes AND cheapness clearly calls for one of the blues...

Imho "peon" blue with white writing could be a winner...

[Boffykins]

Pe0n blue with "Melting" slogan imo

[Strych]

omg - slogans in other thread!
/me shoos Boffy

[WeeJ]

Do we just pay for these when we get there, or are they being made to order? Because Drarok and I would be willing to cough up some money for some t-shirts :D

[lyn]

They will be made to order for people going on the trip.

[Wizzo]

OK PEOPLE LISTEN UP

This thread will NOT be hijacked in order to trade personal insults or abuse. This thread is to discuss the t-shirts for Alton Towers for those going. I have removed the offending posts and further posts bitching about spaces in rooms or containing abuse will be deleted.

Stick to the topic. Discuss where to get the t-shirts from and how they should look.

Lyn will not be providing the t-shirts anymore for personal reasons, as per her comment in one of the deleted posts. That is all that needs to be said. Find an alternative supplier.

[Elbonio]

barbie pink.

no chance! :)

[Murray-Mint]

Sky Blue!

[Pingman]

So whats happenign about the t-shirts im confused, id liek one for the day if some oen can tell me whats going on :|

[Murray-Mint]

I'm speaking to another supplier at the moment, I can offer:

Sky Blue with Black lettering
Pink with Black lettering
Pink with Glittery Letters

Any mix of these :) And quite affordable too. If someone could get back to me with a rough number of each :) I can tell the company.

[Elbonio]

bah!

you're just insecure



new t-shirt:

barbie pink, "MPUK Alton Towers 2004 - you dont have to be gay, but it helps..."

[Aardvark]

Pink with 'Violent video games' in black writing. A wonderful contrast I think you'll agree :)

[Pingman]

can we not have pink plz, itll look ****e :|
put me down for 1 t-shirt plz
whats estiamted cost?

[Guigsy]

yeah i'll have one 2

[WeeJ]

My office at work is right next door to the people who supply our uniforms. Would you lot like me to get a quote for these t shirts? If so, let me know what for and I'll go suck up to them and try and get a discount for bulk buying ;)

[afty]

The "no black" argument is basically a "no dark colours, AT ALL" argument. Outdoor summer events need white or near white garments, anything else is heat-death and they wont get worn!

[Strych]

Oh god, yes!
Put me down for one of those babies!

[Mingtea]

do you offer spandex?

[Guigsy]

pink with spangley letters.... in spandex. hell yeah


i think just plane old black lettering on white is the best option

[Pingman]

im in agreement here, black letters on white is the best option i think, no dark colours as we will cook, no bright flower colours as insects will rape us like bugs with freshmeat and no pink shirts with sparkly gold letters or any thing else that makes us look highly homosexual!

[Wizzo]

sky blue for me thx

[Murray-Mint]

Weej: If you want to send me the quote, and post it here.

I am writing a small and quick PHP T Shirt ordering system. I'm thinking along the lines of, select what you want from a page, it emails me or someone else the details, that is passed on to the supplier/collated for ordering, then payment for T Shirts at i21.

Opinions?

[Exegesis]

i insist upon pink... it will be the only time that i will ever feel comfortable wearing pink because i will be just like everybody else. come on people, it's a once in a lifetime oppurtunity!

**** off,

it's a once in a lifetime oppurtunity!

youve got 4 other i events!

[Dan]

Gunsmith is insecure ;D

[Mingtea]

Pink is fashion at the moment you know.

[her0n]

White reminds me of school polo shirts.. that and white has a tendancy to be kinda see thru...

... esp when wet :o

[afty]

Straight on the buzzsaw when we arrive then?

Letcherous dog...




















.... good plan let's do it ;)

and the problem is...
*hides from wizzo*

(btw the buzzsaw innuendo means what??)

[Towneh]

It's the name of a specific ride at Alton Towers that flips you over and over, and has a lot of water involved...

[afty]

Basically, on the Buzzsaw, you bounce alot, and become very very wet.

When the day is hot, I basically ride the Buzzsaw over and over and over to keep cool.

[Murray-Mint]

The ride in question is the 'Ripsaw' a Huss Top Spin.

In other news! ORDER YOUR T-SHIRTS HERE!

http://www.murray-mint.co.uk/at/index.php

Many colours and styles. The slogan is undecided yet. I will be placing the first order at the end of the week. Then if I get more orders, the end of next week, etc.

Payment is preferred at i21 but other arrangements can be made.

[gemz]

Well done Murray, good way of doing it :) I've ordered some t-shirts (cos I'm greedy).. \o/

[Exegesis]

Wait... how do i know what to choose if no one has decided what we're going with???

btw, murray is the hot stuff! way to go on the php!

[Mingtea]

i've ordered pink with glittery writing.

JOIN ME MY SEXUALY CHALLENGED FRIENDS.

[Elbonio]

i am also opting for pink with glitter letters


you know we should all have something consistent like "MPUK do Alton Towers 2004" and then we should each have a custom tag line for each one of us


"Mingtea - probably the longest man in the world"

"Elbonio - Just for men"


etc

[Murray-Mint]

Spoken to the supplier, it's an extra £1.50 to have nicknames on T-Shirts. So at the moment it's looking like:

MPUK Alton Towers 2004

<Some Witty Slogan - See Slogans Thread>

<Nickname>

I've updated the prices on the website to reflect this. Nickname can be on the Front or the Back. Opinions?

[Switch`]

Back for nickname

Also, im with Elbonio on this, Custom tag line thing and MPUK do Alton Towers 2004

[Strych]

Bloody good work Murray.
Pink, glittery letters. Its a must!

Nicknames on the back I reckon

When do we need to submit slogans? Is there a deadline? Will custom slogans have us for cost?

[Murray-Mint]

Custom slogans might be expensive. I'll check, but it may cost quite a bit more. As for general slogan submissions, I'm going to try and place an order Friday, so if we can decide on the slogan and position of Slogan and Nicknames by then, it'd be appreciated, otherwise, I'll wait another week.

I'm hoping if I order some at the end of the week, I might have them through in time for i21.

[Guigsy]

pink and glittery writing for myself :p

[Murray-Mint]

OK, spoken to the supplier, You can have custom slogans at no extra cost! So your T-Shirt can read whatever you want it to for the slogan. I have updated the submitting form with a box for slogan. If you don't enter one, then the default 'Playing Violent Videgames...' etc. will be put on instead.

All those who have already ordered T-Shirts, just email me@murray-mint.co.uk with your slogans.

However, it does defeat the whole object of uniformness. Just make up your minds! If you want separate colours (hey, it works for the i-series staff T-Shirts) or the same colour, differing slogans, or the same slogan, etc. At the moment, the T-Shirt is looking something like:

MPUK Alton Towers 2004

<A Slogan>

<Nickname>

So they will be easily recognisable we are from the same group. at a distance, people won't read the actual letters anyway, it will just the the shapes of the words, so I think it could work, but it's up to you.
