Free Stuff Friday - Browncoat Ball/Dark Horse Comics/Buffy Goody Bag

Browncoat Ball/Dark Horse Comics/Buffy Goody Bag
See what's inside the bag - it's AWESOME!
Last weekend, we attended our first ever Browncoat Ball in Portland, Oregon - a surprise birthday present for me from GrrlGotGame! We drove down on Friday and were warmly greeted by our Firefly fan brethren. We also got to go meet some famous story editors at Dark Horse Comics, who gave us nifty goodies. Since we only need one set of cool stuff to share between us, we're going to share the rest with you (if you win!).

Some of this stuff you can only have gotten by attending the Browncoat Ball, and I doubt the rest of the attendees are parting with their goodies. So this may be your only chance. Here's what's included:

  • Browncoat Ball 2009 sampler CD with Firefly-themed music plus more mainstream songs from Kirby Krackle, Dandy Warhols, Jason Mraz, Joe Strummer and Nikka Costa (16 tracks in all!)
  • Buffy the Vampire Slayer: Chaos Bleeds game for Xbox (also plays on Xbox 360) - an arguably good Buffy game that lets you play as Buffy, Willow, Xander and even Spike! (If you can't enjoy this, please let us know in your comment so we can award it to someone who can.)
  • Dark Horse Comics bag imprinted with Buffy on one side and the Dark Horse logo on the other
  • Dark Horse logo keychain/clip
  • Dark Horse Signing and Preview Book 2009
  • TFAW.com 10% discount code offer (if you don't win and still want the code, say so in your comment: We're still allowed to share the code with you unless you're a purple belly, but only the winner gets the fancy offer sheet)
  • Buffy: Tales of the Vampires comic (we have two of these, so one runner up will win this too!)
  • Buffy Season 8 #20 comic
  • Hellboy: The Wild Hunt comic
  • Aliens #1 comic
  • Beasts of Burden #1 comic
  • The Umbrella Academy: Apocalypse Suite #1 comic
  • Star Wars: Dark Times #1 comic
  • Star Wars: Invasion #1 comic
To enter:

Simply post a comment on this page. Say whatever is on your mind as long as it's not an ad or profane. DO INCLUDE WHETHER YOU WANT THE XBOX GAME (IF YOU WIN) AND THE DISCOUNT CODE (EVEN IF YOU DON't WIN!). Be sure to read the Sweepstakes Rules to ensure you are eligible to win and don't get disqualified by double-posting or forgetting to provide an e-mail address.

You may also want to white list this domain; we've had several would-be winners lose out because they never responded to their prize notification! If you use TypeKey/TypePad, be sure your e-mail address will be shared. No e-mail address, no prize. (Don't worry, no one else will see it - and we'll only use it to contact you if you win.)

Note that unless you're an authenticated poster who has been active on the site and marked as trusted, your comment will NOT appear immediately. It will go into a queue for me to approve, which I'll do several times a day (except the first weekend, where comments may not be approved until sometime late on Sunday). Do NOT double-post. We'll extend the entry period for this until 5:01 p.m. Pacific Time on Thursday, October 15 to ensure you have plenty of time to enter and verify your entry was posted.

We also sometimes give away unannounced Instant Win prizes. Here are a few tips since this can happen at any time. (If all goes well, there will be several prizes in the next week or so! Really!) 1) Follow Gamewatcher on Twitter. Before we post the next Free Stuff Bonus - Instant Win, we'll give you a fair warning tweet. 2) Subscribe to our RSS feed and set it to check for updates frequently.

We continue to stock up on cool goodies for Free Stuff Friday - and we will keep doing so as long as there's enough response, even if we continue to lose money on this site. So tell your friends about this! Hey, if we get bigger, so will the prizes that YOU could win!

While you're at it, post comments wherever you see something interesting. Also, if you get a game code you don't need or have some other cool game-related prize you want to donate, we'd be very grateful (we pay for most of this stuff ourselves!).

Check back each Friday to see what's next.

I love anything Buffy, I used to play the xbox game all of the time at my friends house, never got around to picking up a copy for myself so I'd love to win a free copy.
I'd also like that TFAW 10% off code, been meaning to get some more comics.

2. chakan:

What a great prize package! I would love the Xbox game, but I don't need the TFAW code if I don't win. Thanks for sponsoring the contest!

3. UltimoRey:

Wow, that bag is so full of win I would love to win something that awesome. Though if I do win someone else will have to take the xbox game since I don't have one and don't really need a 10% off coupon so second place WOULD get a big treat if I did win.

Most excellent. I don't want nor need the Xbox game.

38. Ruth Ann:

I'd love to win.
I don't have an Xbox of any sort, so, if I do win, please give the game to someone else.

Thanks so much!

41. Koram Dancer:

Heard about this giveaway on the Fireflyfan board. I soooo wanted to attend the Ball this year, it being that close to Seattle, but finances... I would really love the CD. Even hearing a lone cello now drops me back into Firefly.
