The Nudge 100 is BACK
Season 2 comes in a bold new flavor with plenty of STANK on it.
Hey goofenbachers,
This week we have a rare moment of self-promotion. We are opening the Nudge 100 back up. If you missed out last time and emailed me bummed, just skip to the bottom of this email and find the link to buy it this time. For the rest of you? Well, here’s what the Nudge 100 is.
Join the Nudge 100 or DIE
Hey y’all, it’s true. For the first time ever (this year), we’ll be opening up the Nudge 100 back up to NEW recruits. What is the Nudge 100? In my mind they are a top secret kill squad that will crush any and all opposition. They are the right hand of Nudge and as such will command glory on the battlefield and also riches beyond their wildest dreams. In actuality? Well, The Nudge 100 is basically a supersized version of our yearly subscription for only $10 bucks more, available only to the first 100 people who sign up. Some of our Nudge 100 stuff worked last year, some didn’t. This year we leaner, cleaner, no need for a breather. Now you’ll get MORE of the stuff you love, plus exclusive merch drops, free shipping on all other nudge purchases, and general coolness.
The only catch? You gotta do it fast. We opened up membership to the original Nudge 100 last week, and about 50 spots are already gone. Last year it only took a couple days for it to sell out (don’t worry, we’ll still offer Nudge subscriptions later), so I’d say it’s prob a good idea to do this sooner rather than later.
Stuff The Nudge 100 gets…
Signed and numbered copies of Nudge 3 + 4
Exclusive, super limited edition Nudge print by artist Jeremiah Kremer
One OFFICIAL NUDGE graffiti stencil (For real, and it rules)
Exclusive Nudge stickerz, goodiez, etc
Numbered Nudge 100 membership card
Continued membership in the Nudge 100 (v cool)
Early access to exclusive merch drops
free shipping on all additional purchases
I mean, it’s worth it just for the Doc and Bmoen signatures, but this year’s crop of prizes is, well, dope as helllllll brooooo. In addition to this super dope print from Jeremiah Kremer, you’re getting an official graffiti stencil. Yeah, you read that right. You’ll finally be able to spray paint Nudge everywhere you’ve always wanted. Guitar cases, old EM cabinets, nothing is safe. Plus membership cards and some dope stuff like exclusive early access to new merch drops like t-shirts, hoodies, and whatever else you wanna plaster on your body. Our team over here has been putting in a ton of work on new stuff, and there are some designs I’m real excited for y’all to see. On that note…
What’s in issue 3?
We’re excited to show you what we’ve been working on these last few months. Nudge #3 is gonna be a banger, with a big ole feature about Pinball Olympics, Rick Brewster’s coverage of TPF, The Los Angeles Pinball League, More Toxic Pinball Behaviors, Gina Collechia’s poignant tribute to a legendary french pinballer, Pinball Music Reviews, AND MORE. PLUS MORE ART AND FUNNY PINBALL STUFF THAN YOU CAN HANDLE. LEGALLY WE HAVE TO WRITE THIS. OUR LAWYER IS FORCING US SO THAT YOU UNDERSTAND HOW SERIOUSLY INTENSE THIS THING IS GONNA BE SO YOU DON’T INTO SHOCK THE FIRST TIME YOU FRICKING SEE IT.
Writers: Rick Brewster, Gina Collecchia, Doc Monday, Matt Keil, Ben Granger, Iggy, Tyler White, and Elizabeth Weinberg
Photography: Slim Buckle, Cale Hernandez, Gina Collecchia, Doc Monday, Elizabeth Weinberg, Gene X, Matt Benzik, Rick Brewster, and Berenice Marisela
Cool? Cool. Seriously? The Nudge 100 helps us out a ton and gives us a base to pay our writers, artists, and the people who make Nudge Dope. We have so many more stories to tell (Seriously, we’re running out of space in Issue 4 already) and we wouldn’t get to do that without y’all. And as for y’all? Well you’re gonna get the funnest, weirdest pinball magazine in the world. Just like you little freaks deserve. Everyone likes that. See you in the kill squad! Don’t hog all the machetes and uzis, ok?
Next week? Less commerce, more pinball
We’re gonna take a look at some WILD art and get into the worst kinda hijinx you can imagine. Got it? Luh you.
