Any chance we could reach out to Wil Wheatonand have the game featured on TableTop?
Other Stretch Goals could be either:

- Dice Version of the game.

I really don't want much more in the way of stretch goals, the two NSFW upgrades are cool, but otherwise, just ship me the stuff you know?
Jeff Richards 2015-01-22T20:24:00-05:00
There's actually a procedure for submitting games to TableTop; they detail it on their site. And I'm sure Wil's aware of this, considering the attention it's getting. :-)
Congrats on $3M, guys! Just... wow. I knew this was going to go really well, but I was off by about a decimal place.
LordCrash - OD | OOoE | WoOS 2015-01-22T20:25:58-05:00
I suggest a manual print version (pdf) in multiple languages for international backers as a new lower tier, maybe at 10 or 15 bucks.
LordCrash - OD | OOoE | WoOS 2015-01-22T20:28:44-05:00
Other card games have done that before, e.g. THE AGENTS.
LordCrash - OD | OOoE | WoOS 2015-01-22T20:29:29-05:00
Oh, and offering the best possible quality for the cards would be another fine stretch goal, e.g. using 100% plastic cards for long durability (just think about playing Exploding Kittens during a wild party...)
Natasha 2015-01-22T20:31:01-05:00
The Bobcats must be thrilled...... or not.... quite possibly not...
Jörn Huxhorn 2015-01-22T20:32:17-05:00

Al Calavicci 2015-01-22T20:34:25-05:00
100% plastic cards would be nice so when my vodka explodes on the cats or I get excited late at night during the NSFW game play I dont ruin the cards.
And I sit corrected. It only took 43 minutes to surpass the 3mil mark. Wow.
Katy Marie Ellenich 2015-01-22T20:39:37-05:00
What about a "9 lives" card to surpass blowing up and dying?
Monty 2015-01-22T20:39:38-05:00
I think the quality of cards against humanity cards are great ! So I don't want plastic cards ... love the idea of expanding the expansion though - great stretch goal !
LordCrash - OD | OOoE | WoOS 2015-01-22T20:39:47-05:00
Stretch goal suggestions:
- 100% plastic cards for maximum durability
- digital-only version/tier for manual print in different languages (Spanish, French, German,...)
- kickstarter exclusive box
- EU friendly shipping
Kate 2015-01-22T20:40:24-05:00
Regarding your update #4. There is no $1 backer option. 100,000 backers is a huge stretch goal and seems unlikely to be reached. Why so high?
LordCrash - OD | OOoE | WoOS 2015-01-22T20:41:03-05:00
@Kate
You can just back at $1 without choosing any tier.

I am glad to see you are looking at improving shipping to the rest of the world, but really guys, considering the global appeal of the Oatmeal, and the simplicity of worldwide distribution, you really should have had it in place prior to launch. Especially for the EU, the ease of only having to ship to one distributed for the entire union really makes that one hyper easy
LordCrash - OD | OOoE | WoOS 2015-01-22T20:42:30-05:00

100k will be reached easily.
Jared Politi 2015-01-22T20:52:47-05:00
I vote once we reach the current stretch goal and the adult version is expanded... the next goal be a second deck. I vote against plastic cards... cards against humanity quality for example is plenty and its been super successful.
I'm not sure if this has been suggested before, but please include Tesla and Mantis Shrimp cards. Maybe a Tesla Coil card could explode, but also explode the players to your right and left.
Marcel Chabot 2015-01-22T21:00:08-05:00
I hope they provide detailed updates after this closes. I want to know how the logistics works as the project scales up from a few thousand packs of cards to 100,000 packs. Right now 77,830, we are over 12 metric tons of cards (assuming each card weighs 1.8 grams). This has gone from the "lets create a game" to a multi million dollar enterprise.
Congrats!
BruceP - The Chameleon 2015-01-22T21:00:33-05:00
@Amy Latta,
You can see there's already a Mantis Shrimp card if you stop the video around the :47 mark and look in the lower-left corner. :)
Justin Kyryliuk 2015-01-22T21:01:19-05:00
To anyone saying that they won't reach 100,000, I couldn't disagree more!
The way that this has been getting backers, even if it slowed down to 25% of the pace it's currently at, it'd still reach 100,000 backers of FULL tier-priced backs (meaning people paying $25+)!
Seeing how they're striving for 100,000 backers to give something awesome away, my guess is it'll be reached soon because people want to know what it is!
It's already got 8,000 more backers than when that update was sent out! Just keep it coming!
To Elan & co.:
Amazing job on this idea guys! Please follow through and see that this is properly done until the end, you've got extreme potential here and we're all looking forward to it!
Thanks for being awesome!

Ace Portuguez 2015-01-22T21:07:14-05:00
In case it hasn't yet been suggested:
Action Card: Mastermind's Kitten (think of a Bond villain petting a cat)
Look at the top (N-1) cards (where N is the number of players). arrange them and place them back at the top for the next players to draw. - like a true villain mastermind.
Norman Fair 2015-01-22T21:07:49-05:00
Forgot to add: Some sort of squid or octopus card.
@Ace: Deck manipulation... I like it. Maybe even a hand swapping card.
Whiskers & Emails 2015-01-22T21:10:19-05:00
Card suggestion: I think a "You've been saved by Jibbers Crabst" card would be hysterical.
Kristen Piersa 2015-01-22T21:19:22-05:00
This makes me already think about Exploding Kittens 2.0 lol or even other card set kinds using dogs, horses, or something else. Can't wait to see that on Kickstarter next year lol. Exploding Puppies, hmmmmm!
Dave Douds 2015-01-22T21:22:59-05:00
Any word yet on how much the "extra shipping charges" which "may apply" are going to be?
I've got several other Australians who are "interested but not at $68" (incl. shipping and exchange rate)
@Dave: In the FAQ. "Yes. You can find the prices for shipping anywhere in the world by selecting your reward level and choosing your location in the drop-down menu."

Richard Goodwin 2015-01-22T21:50:05-05:00

Apologies in advance, my brain is not working. I pledged $35 (for reg+NSFW). Shipping to Canada is $5. I now want an extra reg+NSFW. So, in the pledge amount field I type $75.00? Am I required to add another $5 to ship? Basically because of the dollar amount they will know I am in for 2 regular decks and 2 NSFW decks?
JusticeBolt 2015-01-22T21:52:52-05:00
@Nikki: Do not add 5$ more. 75$ is ok. I have done the same as you and I'm from Canada.

There will be a survey at the end and they will ask what the extra money is for.

This may have been asked already but will the custom cards that the $500 level create be included with the base/NSFW decks?
Suzanne Slocum 2015-01-22T22:08:29-05:00
Card named "Stealth Urinator" he could be a sneaky basset hound that can pee to stop the explosion but maybe it should only be used on a fellow player.

That would be super awesome!!!!

Thank you Exploding Kittens Team! For the last two and a half days I have been watching the astronomical cash rush as the numbers climbed with mind bending rapidity. But no more! No, due to your latest stretch goal I have a new obsession, now I'm watching the backers number as if life itself depended on it. Tremendous improvement, well done.
Shannon 2015-01-22T22:20:04-05:00
For a project that is 30,000% funded... You are being a little harsh with the stretch goals... Kinda seems sad :(
@Evan Yeah, we get that part, but it explicitly says "extra shipping charges may apply".
How much extra shipping ($5? $10? 20?)
How many add-ons can we add before we get charged extra (5? 3? 0?)
Several people (here) are unwilling to commit with the cost being so vaguely defined. Once we have a firm understanding of how much shipping charges will be, we'll be able to proceed.
Paul D 2015-01-22T22:27:53-05:00
@Dave to ship to Australia it's an extra $20, so $35 level becomes $55.

Dave Douds 2015-01-22T22:35:35-05:00
Hi Paul, yes, that parts very clear, and that's what I have right now.
But if I want 3 x $35 and 2 x $20, is that still only $20 shipping? Because the project explicitly states "extra shipping charges may apply".

Regarding shipping for multiple items:
We’re still negotiating on the shipping. We’ll try to get the lowest shipping possible, but for now we don’t want to make any promises we can’t pinky swear on.
I think since you gents have all this money and more, I would include something special in each order shipped!

@ExplodingKittenTeam
Hello!
First I would like to congratulate you on your recent accomplishment of reaching 3 million pledged dollars and 80 thousand backers within the first 48 hours. This is quite amazing. I have several questions and comments.
1. If I were to back $55, could I receive the regular deck AND the regular + expanded . deck? (total 3 decks)
2. Do the nifty box come with each deck? or is there a larger box for the regular + . expansion?
3. My vote on card game material would be for paper cards. Although plastic cards are . more durable, paper cards provide a more authentic look and feel. (There seems to . be this discrepancy in the thread)
4. My NSFW Character vote is the Blerch from the marathon runner comic. A . personified version of human apathy was something that really struck me. As a . student who studies engineering and former ROTC Cadet, the Blerch is a great fear . that haunts me constantly.
5. My NSFW Card idea suggestion is a "Mummified foreskin grappling hook"! :D
Justin Kyryliuk 2015-01-22T23:51:09-05:00
Hey there again!
Just an idea since all of us really want shirts but you guys don't want to delay the Kickstarter delivery.
How about you print unique codes that are included in all of the Kickstarter boxes and then they're redeemable on a website for basecost to make and deliver a shirt?
That way we don't pay through the roof, no delay to the Kickstarter orders, and we get the shirts!
Just food for thought!

Also I know they're just trends and not projections, but how crazy would it be if that Kickstarter trend-tracker site actually came true?
*as of the time I'm writing this* it's showing trending towards $32.2M with that being %322.18K of their goal.
Just saying, that'd be insane.
Tippy Singleton 2015-01-23T00:12:09-05:00
perhaps some kind of kickstarter only card that you can only have by funding and wouldn't appear in boxes you put out into the actual market? 'Kickstarter Kitten!' 'use this card to kickstart the kittens motorbike and send him at (Insert final % of fund raised here) % speed to the person of your choice'
Shannon 2015-01-23T00:14:08-05:00

That would be super awesome!!!!
Thank you Exploding Kittens Team! For the last two and a half days I have been watching the astronomical cash rush as the numbers climbed with mind bending rapidity. But no more! No, due to your latest stretch goal I have a new obsession, now I'm watching the backers number as if life itself depended on it. Tremendous improvement, well done.
For a project that is 30,000% funded... You are being a little harsh with the stretch goals... Kinda seems sad :(
wow, can just sit memorized by the numbers ticking up and up. remember to check out to the Conan Kickstarter! Don't worry, he doesn't explode kittens! https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/806316071/conan
@Evan Yeah, we get that part, but it explicitly says "extra shipping charges may apply".
How much extra shipping ($5? $10? 20?)
How many add-ons can we add before we get charged extra (5? 3? 0?)
Several people (here) are unwilling to commit with the cost being so vaguely defined. Once we have a firm understanding of how much shipping charges will be, we'll be able to proceed.
@Dave to ship to Australia it's an extra $20, so $35 level becomes $55.
How did you get my hairy back on a card!?!
Haha
Great work, look forward to my deck.
Mark the Yeti in Canada
Way to go!
80,000 backers and only 2000 commments?
Damn.
Much love to the oatmeal.
Edison's protégé card (i.e. "The Douche card") :
can be played anytime and force any player or your choosing to draw a card.
Hi Paul, yes, that parts very clear, and that's what I have right now.
But if I want 3 x $35 and 2 x $20, is that still only $20 shipping? Because the project explicitly states "extra shipping charges may apply".
As a person with a severe OCD in keeping card games pristine, please please please make the cards fit into the original box after sleeving it.
Backer number 80,000, you really must say hello in the comment box here, or I will be very upset. Hello and Welcome!
Ding ding ding!! Okay, who was it?!?!
God I hope we can get 20,000 more backers!
Might be hard to tell actually, it jumped by about 30 within the last 20 seconds
Oh yeah, no doubt, there will be 20,000 more. Check out Kicktraq if you like keeping track of kickstarter project graphs. http://www.kicktraq.com/projects/elanlee/exploding-kittens/
Sooo...how bout an exploding kittens tshirt perk? How awesome would that be! I would buy one!
Please tell me we will have a rabid were-pigs card and a Mantis Shrimp card :)
Guaranteed there'll be 100,000 by tomorrow morning at the rate this is going!
Y'all out here kicking some kickstarter BUTT!!! 35,000% funded??? I've got my order in!!!
Any chance for more tiers / or extra spots in the higher ones?
Regarding shipping for multiple items:
We’re still negotiating on the shipping. We’ll try to get the lowest shipping possible, but for now we don’t want to make any promises we can’t pinky swear on.
For the time being, just use the price for a single deck given to you by the shipping calculator, and we’ll confirm everything before putting your Exploding Kittens in the mail.
(now added to the FAQ: https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/elanlee/exploding-kittens#project_faq_120606)
this will be the best drinking game ever
I think since you gents have all this money and more, I would include something special in each order shipped!
@ExplodingKittenTeam
Hello!
First I would like to congratulate you on your recent accomplishment of reaching 3 million pledged dollars and 80 thousand backers within the first 48 hours. This is quite amazing. I have several questions and comments.
1. If I were to back $55, could I receive the regular deck AND the regular + expanded . deck? (total 3 decks)
2. Do the nifty box come with each deck? or is there a larger box for the regular + . expansion?
3. My vote on card game material would be for paper cards. Although plastic cards are . more durable, paper cards provide a more authentic look and feel. (There seems to . be this discrepancy in the thread)
4. My NSFW Character vote is the Blerch from the marathon runner comic. A . personified version of human apathy was something that really struck me. As a . student who studies engineering and former ROTC Cadet, the Blerch is a great fear . that haunts me constantly.
5. My NSFW Card idea suggestion is a "Mummified foreskin grappling hook"! :D
Hey there again!
Just an idea since all of us really want shirts but you guys don't want to delay the Kickstarter delivery.
How about you print unique codes that are included in all of the Kickstarter boxes and then they're redeemable on a website for basecost to make and deliver a shirt?
That way we don't pay through the roof, no delay to the Kickstarter orders, and we get the shirts!
Just food for thought!
Posters!
CAN WE HAVE A COOKIE CAT CARD?!?!?! (a steven universe reference) PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE!
Also I know they're just trends and not projections, but how crazy would it be if that Kickstarter trend-tracker site actually came true?
*as of the time I'm writing this* it's showing trending towards $32.2M with that being %322.18K of their goal.
Just saying, that'd be insane.
perhaps some kind of kickstarter only card that you can only have by funding and wouldn't appear in boxes you put out into the actual market? 'Kickstarter Kitten!' 'use this card to kickstart the kittens motorbike and send him at (Insert final % of fund raised here) % speed to the person of your choice'
100% plastic cards is a GREAT suggestion for next stretch Goal!
We can beat that "coolest cooler", only 10 mill to go! LOL! come on guys and gals! :D
