Wrath Posted November 12, 2014 Share Posted November 12, 2014 Did Jessabelle ever release? Apparently so. Fandago says its showing at at least one theater in NYC and possibly other places as well, but no one seems to have any box office information on it at all. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

chasmmi Posted November 14, 2014 Author Share Posted November 14, 2014 BTW, with regards to end of game prizes, how would people feel about receiving there prize in the form of subscription months to this site? ANd if people are down with that, how feasible is that to impliment from a mod point of view? so have a prize structure of: 1st - 3 months Gold subscription (or equivalent in cheaper subscriptions) 2nd - 2 months Gold subscription (or equivalent in cheaper subscriptions) 3rd - 1 month Gold subscription (or equivalent in cheaper subscriptions) 6 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
