Oh hell yeah!
My two alter egos collide in this one verrry awesome video. My love for the paranormal (hence this site), and my overwhelming adoration for The Gamers: Dorkness Rising (and all things geek). If you enjoy DND style gaming, and you should, then you already know about Dorkness Rising. If you haven’t heard about it then do yourself a favor and GO SEE IT!!! It used to be on Netflix for free, but it’s under $20 to own, so do yourself a favor and add it to your collection. It’s great fun, especially if you game, or do any game-con style revelry.
Anyway, what I wanted to show you was this. It’s a video project Called Geek Seekers starring Jen Page (from Dorkness Rising). The project is looking to get funding from folks like us who want to see the project go forward. Take a look it looks hillarious. awesome. OMG. Then donate.
Basic premise –
Geek Seekers
A Web Series About Geeking the Unknown
If the truth is out there, who better to find it than a couple of geeks?
Geek Seekers International searched far and wide, interviewing thousands of applicants* before deciding that the two perfect candidates were well-known geeks Jen Page and Monte Cook. These two geeks–some might say uber-geeks–have the knowledge, the skills, and the necessary lack of sense to track down the truth about the mysteries of our world. No danger is too great. No mystery too deep. No haunted house too scary** for the…
GEEK SEEKERS!
Geek Seekers is a web series about geeks and the paranormal–two great tastes that taste great together, we think. In each episode two geeks will investigate some strange location or phenomena. Ghosts, UFOs, bigfoot… these are the kinds of things the Geek Seekers will investigate. In the geekiest way possible. In Geek Seekers, you’ll see a mixture of real investigations, geekly discussions, and the occasional bit of silliness, just for good measure.
What will the Geek Seekers find? Ghosts? Ogopogo? Aliens? What craziness will they instigate on their own? What trouble will they find themselves in as they do this crazy stuff?
Now here’s the coolest part. If you donate you can get some awesome goodies. For example, at the $150 lvl you get your name on the backers list, a copy of the DVD, and a special invitation to a live Geek Seekers “Investigate the Paranormal” event held at GenCon, a convention held in August in Indianapolis (backer must provide his or her own way to Indianapolis and the convention).
What I really want, though, is the $500 lvl WOWZA prize: You get all of the above rewards, plus an invitation to participate in a D&D game with Jen and Monte at GenCon (backer must provide his or her own way to Indianapolis and the convention).
How cool would that be?! Anyone with a spare $500 who wants to donate in my name, please feel free.
Stay scared,
Tammy
