Hail to the Victors 2023: Kindle Up, Shirt Up, Printerest List Comment Count

A few updates on the status of this year's book.

BUY BUY BUY

So if you want to read HTTV 2023 you can do so right now:

imageTHE DIGITAL EDITION is $15 from our store. All of that goes to us. This is a PDF version (with no DRM) of the print copy. If you're unable to download your copy, you can email me. If you already purchased but are super-duper ornery about having the absolute last version of it, check that you have version 1.3 and if not you can also email me. If you don't know how to check your version you are not super duper ornery (but it's in Document Properties/Custom).

THE KINDLE EDITION is now available from Amazon for $9.93, which works out to $6.00 that we keep. Screenshot 2023-07-08 014850This edition has slightly longer articles because I didn't have to cut them for space—this is only substantially different for the Roundtable and Scott Bell's article had a section that we had to lose. If you have a different e-reader you can email me and we can work something out, but I can't seem to make tables look right on an EPUB. I know people want iBooks but it's too hard to work with Apple and they take so much off the top it's not really worthwhile for publishers.

THE SHIRT is now available from our store since a lot of you were asking if you could get more than one with your order, or order the shirt and a digital copy without taking a print one. If you did the pre-order your shirt will come when we have your book in stock; there's no such wait if you just order the shirt on its own. For the people who asked why the plays are in a weird order, it just looked bad when I had plays 1 and 2 on the left.

PRINT COPIES

THE PRINT INTEREST LIST (Printerest List?) We are still trying to get more copies printed, and thus far have scrounged up enough material for 2200 copies, which was 200 more than we had a few weeks ago. Now, this is a Real number, not the Safe number I usually put out to account for Things That Can Happen. Once we have the books in our warehouse, which will be around July 25, we will be past most of the Things That Can Happen and we'll sell whatever's left.

I have created an interest list on Google Forms where you can let us know to contact you as soon as those go on sale. Getting on the list does not mean you *have* to buy a print copy; it means you want to get an email from me when you can. That's the only thing I'll use it for. If you reached out to me before, I sent you an invitation to join the list.

PRINT COPIES OF OLD BOOKS

I sold my last (damaged) 2016 and 2017 but I still have a good number of 2022, 2021, 2020, 2019, 2018, 2015, and 2014 Hail to Hoops & Hockey books left (and 2014 PSU books). I have digital (PDF) versions of everything back to 2012. Selling print back issues for $20 apiece and digital for $10. Just email me if you're interested. Planning on a big run to the post office early next week.

I pre-ordered the shirt and print version early. My only wish is I wouldn't have to pay for the Kindle version.

If I'm mistaken I'll gladly eat the down votes for the way to get it.

i'm happy to pay the $50 for the print / digital version...and while the shirt is definitely cool, i kinda doubt i'll ever wear it.  any way you can keep it and give / sell it to a more-worthy soul than i?
