Lets see if anything happens.

I just got an email saying the book was 'dispatched' today, so it sounds like the book actually was shipped!

Assuming it did ship, I should have it in a few weeks.

Ordered a copy from book depository on 3rd October, and it arrived today. I'm assuming Roosh is getting properly paid for these orders!?

Today I shut down all paperback distribution from Createspace (Amazon's paperback subsidiary) for Game to get ready for using an alternate distribution platform. I don't expect orders to BookDepository to work in the very near future.

By December 1 (most likely sooner), I will start selling paperback and hardback directly. So hang tight until then.

Excellent news. I'll definitely order a hardback copy too. Will this be for all titles, or just Game?

Nice! I'm down for the hardback.

I'm going to get one or the other. Print, ebook and audio copy totals 10% or less of most competitors (such as the $2500 dollar conference in that other thread. Spend the extra on clothes and good food.)

I'll buy the paperback and hardback copy.

Got to support wherever, whenever with whatever I can.

Hang on tight Roosh, fuck the bastards and do it with a shiteating grin.

This is war, and we're going to have to start loving it.

Blood and guts.
Blood and fucking guts.





And I do love it so.

For Game to start. If it goes well, I'll start adding other books.

Banning Roosh`s books is taking down Amazon it seems;

Will you sell to US customers only or will you ship to other countries and continents, and at what price? can we pre-order (hardback copy for me)? Thanks Roosh!

I will ship worldwide, though it may take time to add countries individually to the shipping system. If your country is not available, you can contact me and I will add it.

Pricing will be about $25 for paperback and $35 for hardcover.

There will be no pre-orders.

I ordered "Game" from BookDepository last week and they just emailed me today that they are shipping my copy today. We will see if it really goes through.

Post: #567

I've published a tandem review of Game and Delicious Tacos' The Pussy here: https://terrorhousemag.com/pussy/

Tl;dr: it's a truly great book.

Wow turns out book depository ships from the UK, might be a while for mine to get here, shipped last night!

I didn't want to be insensitive to a plight I've myself faced, and comment on this situation when the whole debacle started, BUT I'm convinced - inconvenient and dejecting though it may be now - that the bannings from Amazon, Paypal, etc. - are going to prove a net positive for you in the long run, Roosh.

And for RVF and the red pill community as a whole.

Not only does cleaving away from the platforms that use their politics as a club to arbitrarily shut down livelihoods a step in the direction of antifragility, it fosters the creation and sustainment of alternate platforms that don't censor people simply because they have unpopular opinions, much less put them on blast in public.

It also incentives the creation of assets that you own, like Vox Day with his publishing house (although admittedly he sells via Amazon), InfoWars (they're getting banned from everything left and right but they're still moving forward).

It's very early stages but I think we'll see more use of crypto in these situations. I already pay one of my Ukrainian team members in crypto because it's the cheapest and fastest way as Ukrainian Paypal accounts can't even receive money. We'll also platforms like Freestartr come to life (which seems to be down at the moment).

And we'll see a move away from reliance on third party platforms with huge user bases (Google, Facebook, Amazon, etc.) to a greater degree of self-reliance and ownership of assets.

One of the things I've seen in my business over and over again is various business owners losing their incomes overnight at the behest of Google (e.g. sites monetized by Adsense, or Adwords ads getting too expensive), Facebook (FB ads becoming less effective and more expensive over time), Amazon (banning, change of algorithm, change of policy), Stripe / Paypal (arbitrary, indisputable banning and withholding of funds), etc.

It always sucks when it happens but call me old fashioned, I believe that resilient, honest and hardworking people end up ahead eventually.

I ordered roosh life work, pretty much everything hes ever written. Great value for only about 40usd. Will also be on the lookout for paperback game.

My order from Book Depository was successful. Got the book today.

David Duke and JF talk about Roosh. Go to hour 01:45.

JF said that he already read the book Game and recommends it.

His comment:

"It is more than just a pick-up-artist book, it is more a book about sociology and current civilization. I recommend it to everyone."

Duke said that Roosh has changed from "woman-hating" to something more positive.

Well - that goes for a former KKK-member like him too I guess. Did not know that there were non-violent KKK-groupings back then, but would not surprise me if that was also based on lies and Hollywood hyperbole. Many former KKK-members became Democrat senators and one was even a mentor to Hillary Clinton.

No idea whether endorsements like these are helpful.

But it's more the scientist JF Gariepy recommending Roosh's book. Maybe if Duke reads it and recommends it, then the press can write:

"Roosh V endorsed by David Duke!"

They already have:

"Dalai Lama endorsed by David Duke!" (The Dalai Lama repeatedly said that Europe should be for the Europeans and the other tribes should go home rebuild their countries.)

The print version I ordered through Book Depository (twice) arrived today. Yay!

This isn't too far off from the Uber model of business - attract a new driver, offer to help him finance a new car, then a few months later reduce the amount he's paid. It's the time honored "company store" raw-deal-for-the-working-man complaint anathema to everything the progressives said they were against. Fast forward to some point around the time Starbucks and Apple products got hugely popular, the distaste for globalist corporations evaporated. They can't even keep their narrative straight - the other day I had a California NPC try to tell me, with a straight face, that Silicon Valley is full of Trump supporters. Okay.

Rollo Tomassi said in a video a few days ago that Amazon isn't shutting off Roosh based objectively offensive content since there is still so much out there for sale on Amazon from numerous other authors. What they are trying to do, he theorized, is attack Roosh personally - they want to ban him as a person.

I agree, as this would explain the silent treatment after they cut him off. As for controversial content, hell, David Fucking Duke himself still has books for sale on Amazon - even in hardback!

Amazon banning Roosh's books (in addition to the InfoWars drama and other recent censorships) is a perfect example of why we need a project like this in the world.

Just like Bitcoin provides an unstoppable, uncensorable, uninflatable digital currency, Particl is building a marketplace that can't be stopped, censored, or brought down by TPTB.

All purchases are filtered on the back end through the PART token, which is built on a Bitcoin codebase but with Monero anonymity tech (confidential transactions and ring signatures) which hides both the sender/receiver addresses as well as the amount sent, so every transaction on the platform is 100% private. They've even developed an automated escrow system that removes the need for third parties.

While I do hold PART tokens, this isn't necessarily investment advice - I think everyone on the RVF could benefit from using a platform like this, and I'm excited to see it come to fruition.

Mainnet launch is planned for sometime late Q4/early Q1 2019 - I'll create a thread soon to provide more information once the date gets closer. In the meantime, here is an old but thorough overview of the project. Feel free to PM me for more details if interested.

For those interested in learning more about Particl, see my recently published Particl Thread.
