Wil Wheaton Needs You for TableTop Season 3’s IndieGoGo
April 7, 2014 by dracs
One of our favourite shows on Geek and Sundry is Wil Wheaton's TableTop, so it's really exciting to see that a third season is in the works, and Wil needs your IndieGoGo support to make it happen.
The guys behind TableTop are looking for the funds needed to bring about 15 whole new episodes of the awesome gaming show. If they surpass their funding goal then this will go up to 20 episodes and if they reach the lofty heights of $1 million we could be seeing the much longed for TableTop RPG spin off come to fruition.
To entice us, TableTop is offering all manner of pledge goodies, ranging from virtual high fives to signed board games and DVDs, as well as the chance to visit the set.
As I said, all of us at Beasts of War have really enjoyed the show TableTop and it has helped to showcase a lot of great games that might otherwise have passed under the radar for a lot of gamers. The promise of a third season is an enticing one, so it will be good to see this IndieGoGo take off.
Are you going to help Wil make season 3 happen?
pledged on tabletop day 🙂
Quality show, I am hopeful for this one
I hope they do the TableTop the musical!
Pledged ! I hope they get enough for the RPG show…
They keep all the money even if they don’t get to there target….hmmmm.
Wonder why they didn’t go kick starter…..
You already answered your own question…
Errr… So did the Google funding dry up, or did they just think they’d make more money this way?
As much as I liked Tabletop, I’m not huge fan of the funding model here.
With featured products showing 70+% increases in sales, there’s no question in my mind who should be footing the bill for this….
If it weren’t for IndieGoGo I probably would have backed this. One thing that bugs me with Tabletop ( and don’t get me wrong I love the show ) is their constant disregard for the games rules. The show doesn’t give an hpnest view of some of the games as they change the rules to suit themselves. Just look at their x-wing episode. It was a shambles. I would also prefer it if they didn’t skip most of the game to get it to fit the half hour format. If it takes longer to play then so be it. Also…… Read more »
Oh and. How come it costs 250k to produce 5 extra episodes but it only ( huh. only he says. lol ) costs 500k to do 15?
Who are they paying to make these shows! 500k for 15 shows. Seriously!?! I love them and all, I like to have them on while painting, but $33k an episode seems a bit steep!
