we have alot of good entries and some damn funny ones as well. i would have to agree with what wiccian said... and im wondering what text we should out on there.

its true that 99% of the time there is not any physical danger, but sometimes even if its just .001% there is danger and a doctor needs to be called, or ems... and i wouldnt awnt anyone with a false sense of security, not calling the help that they need....

I think I agree with Wiccan too...in that state of mind, the ridiculousness of a Monopoloy parody might just cause further delusions. While I think the idea if very clever and creative, I'm not sure its the *best* this community could come up with to put on a card to help people out of bad trips.

I just thought of "Educate and Enjoy" as a slogan.

I don't know what were trying to do here really...I mean....I think it should be funny and hopefully bring someone to the website.

I completey agree with wiccian but if we put that on our (if I can include myself) card we are just gonna scare people

Obviously I didn't come up with the idea (although I'm in the process of making a card and I'll post it later), but I don't think this is as crazy as some people are making it out to be. Maybe I just interpreted things differently, but I thought the whole idea was that the card isn't so much a form of currency, as in, trading it in during a bad trip in exchange for an end to the trip (because clearly that's a bit unrealistic, at least judging by my experiences with bad trips, not to mention there's no one to give it to). This is how it is used in the game of Monopoly, but I think the person who thought up the idea was thinking a little more abstractly.

I think that the idea of the card is that it's more of a means of preventing a bad trip. So "get out of one bad trip free," in my opinion, in this case, translates into something more along the lines of "read this card [and/or visit the Shroomery] before tripping so you will prevent one bad trip." I think it makes plenty enough sense ...

Oh yeah, and is there a deadline?

Thank you for posting that, I was JUST about to post something along those lines. You guys need to realize, this card is not meant to actually get you out of a bad trip. :smirk: It does not have to radiate 'good vibes' in order to make you feel better during a stressful psychedelic moment. The whole monopoly card gimmick is, when you get right down to it, basically just marketing, as cold and unpersonable as that may sound. Its an attention getter, meant to increase traffic, and personally... I think its a clever idea.

Okay, well I wasn't sure if this was supposed to be almost exactly like the real Chance / Community Chest cards, but I was feeling creative so I went for it anyway. I still have the .psd file, so I might end up changing it. But here's what I have for now ...

I know it's not the exact size of a business card but I can always retouch it up a bit since it's all vectors. My girlfriend was just getting a little impatient lol
ENJOY!

I agree with strun9x0ut, the idea of using a card as preventive medicine is logical.

If I were to attend a gathering of some sort. I would get a kick out of receiving them.

Plus, I must say, that strun9x0ut's entry, has my vote for the best so far. However, I think, instead of just one design being chosen for printing. I like the idea of dozens of different designs being available.

it's my nature. I'm a collector of stuff.

How about something about concentrating on your breathing? That always helps with bad trips.

what exactly is this card for? just marketing and promotion? i do a lot of graphic design, i'd be interested in creating something, but does it have to be exactly like you have lined out? would you be accepting any kind of design, as long as its a business card type of idea? i'll be much more creative and productive if the rules are more freeform. i'm also an illustrator so the vector kinda look you're going for will be fun for me to work with. get back to me and i'll see what i can come up with.

what we really need is official shroomery-condoms with text printed along the shaft. maby something like:

:penis: .."learn about penis-envy", or;

:grin:  .."watch it grow", or what about;

:naughty:  .."ready to inoclulate!".

and then the shroomery logo right on the top. that would be way more popular that some old cards.

One thing that I think would be awesome to put on the card is this phrase "Rember your going to wake up tommorow normal", I say this because when I tripped for my first time I ate and eighth and my friend ate eighth also, We tripped for about 8 hours. I think we tripped for so long because it was on my 8 mile walk so once we stopped moving we just start tripping even harder, That and watching the sun come up was beutifal but anyway were about half way home and my friend looks over at me serious as I've ever seen anyone with his shirt covering his face he goes "DUDE! What if I am fucking stuck like this for the rest of my life.....I THINK I AM" and with that he took off down the street while people in the neighboorhood who were watering there gardens and stuff at like 6:30 in morning just stared at the kid running down the road with a shirt over his face. Though I though it was comical at the time I later once he finally slowed down I told him what I said at the beginging and it worked. That just my two-cents though.
