A Brief Introduction to this Page's Purpose

Not Another Dime! is dedicated to documenting the assorted, and sometimes wild, details of Mr. Ken Whitman's business dealings within the Role Playing Game (RPG) industry. This place is NOT intended to be a medium of discussion about Mr. Whitman, pro or con, but instead be a "jumping off" point to enable the reader to make their own informed decision about Mr. Whitman's history and business character. (Editor's Note: After years of this documentation, we simply cannot be anything BUT "con" when it comes to Mr. Whitman)

Whenever possible, links to the original source material will be provided, but in many cases that information may have been deleted or secured behind restricted-access (like a private Facebook page) accounts.

Anything posted here is the opinion of the retrospective author and any content shown is to be considered "fair use" and posted for educational purposes only.

Note to authors: Please begin each post with the original date of the event being documented in the format of YYYY.MM.DD (i.e. If the event being recorded happened on March 15th, 2015 and today's date was August 8th, 2018 the beginning of the post's title would be 2015.03.15 and not 2018.08.08) so readers can use the Chronology page to find specific information. Please use appropriate tags when possible for the same reason.

Note to contributors: If you have some valid data to send, screenshots, links to other Ken Whitman stories, etc., please feel free to send a gmail to notanotherdimeblog. We'll look into it and post if appropriate.

2016.11.28 Ken "Whit" Whitman Wild Comments Over at Tenkar's Tavern

2016.11.28 Ken "Whit" Whitman Wild Comments Over at Tenkar's Tavern
Generally speaking we here at Not Another Dime (for Ken Whitman) aren't huge fans of "stealing" content from other blogs, but we do like to make sure Ken "Whit" Whitman's actions get recorded for posterity.

A blip of information came across our desk and we realized there was a bit more to a recent post over at Tenkar's Tavern. Sure enough, buried in the comments, were some fine words by our main man himself. Not everybody bothers to read the comments and the thing with comments is that the author, in this case Ken "Whit" Whitman, could easily delete those comments and make this popcorn-worthy exchange inaccessible for future reading.

Fear not, dear reader, because we've got your back on this one. By all means, pop on over to the Tavern to read the comments yourself, but we are lugging them over her for posterity. We are including the commentary from everyone starting from Ken "Whit" Whitman's entrance, but we have blurred out a 3rd party's name:

Ken "Whit" Whitman Comments Part 1
""Kenny boy, I know you read The Tavern like its Variety - I mean, where else do people actually know your name?"

It's only 20 haters and Jolly. 

When i look at all the feeds you guys put out, its bad reviews and what you dislike. Hell half or you are professional haters, you did not even back my Kickstarters. 

I am not running from the LAW, The LAW can find me anytime. The reason I was not served, is I have done nothing illegal. Can people serve me for small claims and civil, sure they can. Just like I could sue you Erik, but like me, you don't own shit, so it would be am empiric victory.

So enjoy waiting more time haters & Happy holidays."

"Im sorry, my friend, my lawyers have already looked into your financial background. If you have to have over 250k in assets for it to be worth their time, nether you, Jolly count. Or me for that matter. And that is why you wont see legal action. Its not just about right and wrong, but no one gives a shit what us poor people do. And yes, any one who has less then $250k are considered poor."

Ken "Whit" Whitman Comments Part 2
"You see, you have a full time lawyer on your side that happens to have a shit ton of money. I am not about to get into a pissing match with a 800lb gorilla in your home state."

"Jolly, you have my cell phone number, send it to the AG's. I'll talk to them."

"Also, I do have speaking roles, but you know, your research on me half-assed and half speculation.

One day, when your going to see movies, I am in, you can say "what a loser" as you sip your diet coke and shove popcorn in your pie whole. 

While your writing about my past, I will be creating a better future. Take care, assholes."

"Whats funny is you know people are working on contracts, AT YOUR COMPANY, to distribute the KODT:LAS DVD, AT THIS MOMENT, and still pretend like I am doing nothing.

Get off your ivory tower and stop being a dick."

"(btw [REDACTED] could REALLY use the money you owe her).

[REDACTED] was contacted by one of you guys Via Facebook, sent me a email stating she could not work with me because of my past. I kindly said I could refund her After she took pictures of who sent me the email so I could turn them into the FBI. 

She has not sent me the name."

2016.11.16 Ken "Whit" Whitman Posts About a Public Appearance

2016.11.16 Ken "Whit" Whitman Posts About a Public Appearance
Our Main Man Ken "Whit" Whitman again tries to hide and self-promote all at the same time. Not quite sure if he gets it yet or not, but these two actions are not quite congruent.....kind of like stating that his phone number is available online for those wanting to connect, but he never answers it anyway....

One of our sometimes contributors, Erik Tenkar, posted this tidbit this morning and we are pretty much just copying it here for the record, so don't give us any credit on uncovering this bit of information. Honestly, we have problems trying to keep up with the varying Facebook accounts as it is (we have this one, or this one....well let's not forget about "Whit Whitman".....we could be here for days checking them all out.), so things like this help out a lot.

2016.11.16 Facebook Post
"I will be appearing at Games & Comics in London, KY on Saturday, November 19th from Noon till 4PM.

I will be signing autographs, and you can have your picture taken with me, and we can talk about the show, though obviously I can't say shit about season 7!

I hope to see all the Walking Dead fans in the London Ky area. And I want to give a big Shout Out to one of my best friends Marcus King for inviting me to his wonderful store!"

Not quite sure why people would want to see a background extra, much less get an autograph. You'd think that someone from craft services or even a driver or medic for the show would be more interesting than a guy who just stood in the background for a few seconds.

2016.11.18 UPDATE
Evidently those pictures aren't free and will set you back $18......screenshot courtesy of Erik Tenkar.

"I will be arriving Saturday morning from the last day of shooting on Walking Dead Season 7. Yep, its a wrap on Friday. And Then Ky here I come.

From noon till 3, I will be signing and doing a general meet and greet. At 3PM I Will talk about my experience. 3:30 I will do a Q&A, and at 3:45 I will talk about how to be an actor and getting on WD fir season 8."

2016.11.13 NAD Decidedly Silent on Some Recent Ken "Whit" Whitman Information

2016.11.13 NAD Decidedly Silent on Some Recent Ken "Whit" Whitman Information
Today some news hit Facebook and Tenkar's Tavern regarding Ken "Whit" Whitman's self-professed move to Kentucky and some "other" things.

We've known about some of this "other stuff" since at least last November, but we felt it crossed a hard line that we accidentally crossed months earlier when we made some off-the-cuff color commentary regarding his Air BnB listing.

It wasn't intentional then and caught Ken "Whit" Whitman's kids in the crossfire, so there was no way we were willing to do that again unless we had to, and we set that "have to" bar pretty damned high.

While we appreciate the small slew of submissions regarding this current bit of information, we aren't planning on using it. Please don't think we don't appreciate it or that we're going soft on Ken "Whit" Whitman, just we feel the usefulness of the information doesn't outweigh the potential collateral damage it might cause.
