First copy signed?

Hi guys,

I got my copy of the "pulp" edition, and noticed on the title page that as well as been signed by Jasper, it has been stamped stating "first signed, this is the first signed copy of this edition" And is then signed again by Jasper, with this web address and a date.

does this make my copy unique, or am I missing something?

Cheers.

I'd guess it makes it unique in that, of the signed copies, this is the first one that was signed (plus you get the extra stamp which he has also signed). Jasper does strange things like that. You should also have a look over at the Nextian Chat thread, where there is a lot more TN-related activity.

Jasper explains the use of this stamp here. Congratulations for geting it!

Antgeth, you don't happen to live in Richmond, do you? The Toast ad has appeared in the university's canteen...

no, i don't.

additionally, though, a neighbourhood restauraunt opened up, which is called Toast, and the logo is all in capitals, like TOAST. it makes me happy. photo coming soon (or maybe not, depends on when the weather clears up).

almost always around on the (un)official Ffordian IRC (chat) channel, #tnext on esper.net . one can go here [www.esper.net] and after it is done loading, type /join #tnext and you should be there!
