Is it just me, or are there fewer items that you want to pick up compared to the Talk like a Pirate Day sale?
Is it just that the Ninja theme is narrower and there would be fewer products or are Pirates just that much more popular?
This smacks of a cheap attempt to start another pirates vs. ninjas argument. WHich is silly cos the superiority of Pirates Ninjas is just so obvious.
You need to better proofread your posts, so embarassing mistakes like these don't get posted.
Yeah, I'm pro-Ninja, but this "day of celebration" seems really lame and looks like a total marketing ploy. Well, arguably most holdiays are...
I thought talk like a pirate day was stupid, but you don't answer stupidity with more stupidity. You go darwin on their a@@es and make sure they never can pass on their genes! Flipping out and killing people are the Ninja's hallmarks, fortunately.

Avast! I've been bowdlerised!
EDIT: damn sneaky ninja.
EDITED EDIT: Also for presentation and clarity.

Actually, the truly sad thing about RPGNow's Ninja day is that there already is an "established" Sneak like a Ninja Day web-celebrated on December 5. But they made their own Ninja day this week so that Talk like a Pirate day was still fresh in your minds. The least they can do if they are going follow silly Internet memes is actually follow them on proper day.

Rampage. Giant robots rampage whether or not they are dinosaur shaped.

My problem with Sneak Like A Ninja Day is pretty obvious:
Talk Like A Pirate Day will merely annoy people with piratey banter.
Sneak Like a Ninja Day, around the wrong person, could get you shot.

If there's one dragon, it's a solo monster.
If there's five dragons, they're standard monsters.
If there's a dozen dragons, either most of them are minions or your DM is tired of the campaign.

I run a Freeport game and I am more interested in pirates than ninja stuff.
Ninjas are a little more narrow a product niche I believe because of the foreign aspect while any default fantasy game can use a little pirate stuff as a normal element.
I was still interested in things like Rokugan and Creatures of Rokugan but did not end up getting them this time around.
20% off was not enough to get very excited about next to 50% off and $1 sales. I spent more on the 30% off Christmas in July sale.
