You should've made it a minimum of 0.01, you would've ended up with more actual purchases (as in, more than 0.01).

I'll definitely give this a read.

EDIT: The Humble Indie Bundle does this and if not for it, I probably would've just gotten the games for free instead of paying the $5 or whatever I ended up paying for it.

I think I'll check out the pdf for free and buy it in physical copy if I like the first part. Regardless, awesome for you to be contributing to the community

Actually if you're going to pay something pay at least $1, not $0.01. There was an indie video game that used a PWYW model and they lost a lot of money cause a load a short-sighted people only payed one cent, and the cost of each transaction was more than one cent (I can't remember the game but it's been cited on TotalBiscuit's channel numerous times whenever he talks about the PWYW model).

I don't know if this guy has the same set-up but the sentiment should still be the same, don't be a douche and just pay one cent, if you do choose to pay throw in at least a dollar or two.

Yeah, the folks on Reddit have discovered 5 typos, 3 of which are very minor, 2 of which are moderate (Machine's combined win/loss record is not accurate, and one of the digits for Polt got messed up). It may be a couple months before I can implement those changes. Like I said, these are generally pretty small things in the course of a 300-page book with over 280 players, but they of course do need to be addressed (and, like every writer, I die a little on the inside when something like this is discovered post-release TT). I just can't do that right away.

I browsed across the stats and read the Stephano page. It looks fairly interesting. I'll buy a physical volume next month if the price tag is below 10€ inc. shipping (car repairs this month...), but I'll send a few paypal dollars your way if I have to stick with the pdf.

Thanks! Amazon's international sites should have the book up within a month or two. I know that's a bummer, but hopefully you can find it there eventually.

@ TLStaff

I think this thread deserves to be in the community news because of the free pdf and the book itself is a huge enrichment of our community.

Quote if you agree.

Very nice, will look into the book!
Why would you ever choose failure, when success is an option.
