Give em hell sriracha card!!!!
Nigel Bee 2015-01-27T19:21:35-05:00
Pleased for the success of the kickstarter.
Now get your minions/kittens working on shipping through an Eu supplier/agent and I'll be an even happier backer.
Thomas Coyne 2015-01-27T19:22:40-05:00
Apparently the kittens are already exploding with all these "booms". I just want to know how the team has changed their plan to accommodate over 100k decks going out to backers. Definitely need a distributor now. I hope they can drive their cost down because of the increase to offset the added cost of distribution.
@Thomas it will be closer to 250,000 decks by the time everything is counted. keep in mind that well over 95% of all orders are for at least 2 decks (one sfw and one nsfw) at the $35 pledge level.
Rod "BaKhan" Mitchell 2015-01-27T19:25:15-05:00
@Christina, I have some bad news for you...
Janet Nguyen 2015-01-27T19:25:48-05:00
@Joshua I saw "The Molestestest", not sure how I felt (up) about that.
Agreave 2015-01-27T19:26:52-05:00
@Rod M, CAH? (Not seen you on Conan for a while you still in?)
Rod "BaKhan" Mitchell 2015-01-27T19:28:34-05:00
@Agreave, cards against humanity! Nope dropped Conan after the excessive bashing. Won't be a part of a community like that. Good to see you here!
BruceP - The Chameleon 2015-01-27T19:28:46-05:00
@Agreave,
Cards Against Humanity. :)
Catzalcoatal 2015-01-27T19:29:40-05:00
Congrats to the creators on becoming millionaires! While I'm sure some of the logistics will be difficult to hash out, the economies of scale should hopefully work in your favor and increase your margins! Well deserved for what looks to be a really fun game!
BruceP - The Chameleon 2015-01-27T19:29:46-05:00
@Christina,
Where have you been? We passed them already. ;)
Eric 'Trinkets' Baumgarten 2015-01-27T19:29:56-05:00
Wow. Break one measly little goal and everyone drops out of the comments section.
Agreave 2015-01-27T19:31:22-05:00
@Rod M, thanks, so they can use their distribution?
Sorry to hear that, pretty weird bunch over there-don't think I'll be in for much longer!!!
BruceP - The Chameleon 2015-01-27T19:31:22-05:00
Now we're just 21k away from being the 7th most-funded campaign. :)
I went away for an hour. Reading your comments while you watched for us to beat out RR (I backed that also) was pretty entertaining.
I'm trying to think of a card to match "exploding backers awaiting being most backed KS" or "exploding backers demanding new SGs" but my mind is mush tonight.
Get some sleep gang. The campaign will still be here tomorrow.
Janet Nguyen 2015-01-27T19:32:08-05:00
@Eric I think it's the quiet sound of everyone shuffling back to their regularly scheduled lives.
Just passed Everrett, Washington (pop. 105,370) and closing in on Centennial, Colorado (pop. 106,114)
Agreave 2015-01-27T19:34:17-05:00
Thanks Bruce P.
BruceP - The Chameleon 2015-01-27T19:34:21-05:00
I don't want to spam the comments with the link, but if anyone wants the screengrab I got when we passed over the goal of most backers, let me know and I can post it again.
Rod "BaKhan" Mitchell 2015-01-27T19:34:43-05:00
@Agreave, that's my understanding. I just didn't want to be associated with people like that. Wasn't too happy with monolith handled it either. Water under the bridge now.
Level Up Inc 2015-01-27T19:34:53-05:00
Thanks Matt. That comment hits close to home since I live in Everett!
Am I the only one who felt all the wind die out of my sails after that update?
Eric 'Trinkets' Baumgarten 2015-01-27T19:37:24-05:00
@ Janet your probably right, my mind is turned to mush with all this fun.
Shawn Moskalewski 2015-01-27T19:37:39-05:00
You guys should make expansions based off video games. Since one of the creators works for Microsoft, you can maybe even make them Microsoft exclusive game cards.
Agreave 2015-01-27T19:37:43-05:00
@Rod M, thanks again for the info, yep best to just forget and laugh!!
@Rod Just something else. At least another illustration. Mostly a new goal for us to conquer.
Rod "BaKhan" Mitchell 2015-01-27T19:40:25-05:00
@Agreave, no worries :) cheers!
Eric 'Trinkets' Baumgarten 2015-01-27T19:40:50-05:00

@Eric Ah! Apologies!

@Quinn, I get it. Don't worry though, I'm sure that Matt was just busy doing something else and couldn't get something in fast enough. I'm sure they'll make up for it tomorrow! Hopefully with a new goal. I'm personally hoping for world domination, but we'll just have to wait and see! :)
Eric 'Trinkets' Baumgarten 2015-01-27T19:44:00-05:00
Lol. Oh yeah. And cats.
Janet Nguyen 2015-01-27T19:45:23-05:00
@Eric Well, yeah.. especially the cats of teh internetz.
Rod "BaKhan" Mitchell 2015-01-27T19:46:36-05:00
@Eric B, briefly, I asked for some alternate female sculpts that were more covered up (as I play with a mixed group), and some people went ballistic.

@John, one step at a time, you gotta have future goals as well!
John "Collar Stay" Kelly 2015-01-27T19:49:15-05:00
@Ron- future is other dimension goals. Like the Gunslinger. Lobstrocity card!
Eric 'Trinkets' Baumgarten 2015-01-27T19:50:21-05:00
@Rod M. I see. I was kind of surprised that the sculpts are as racy as they are. But I understand that monolith would want to steer towards how they did. And to tie this back to EK, maybe they should have had a NSFW pack of sculpts!
Rod "BaKhan" Mitchell 2015-01-27T19:50:31-05:00
@John, ! That was so awesomely unexpectedly awesome! Roland ftw!
John "Collar Stay" Kelly 2015-01-27T19:52:58-05:00
@Rod, I can't believe it's not a movie yet, but with King's movie record I guess I should be happy.
Lindsay Cullen 2015-01-27T19:54:21-05:00
Caught up in the excitement of this project, I was going to up my pledge a level, but the next tier was all gone. Perhaps given the success of the project, the creators could consider increasing numbers available for some tiers of reward.
Philippe Tusler 2015-01-27T19:55:55-05:00
We are the kittens! (Sung to the tune of "We are the Champions")
Rod "BaKhan" Mitchell 2015-01-27T19:56:01-05:00
@John, no doubt on both counts. I'd rather see hbo or Netflix turn it into a series!
Steven Rogers 2015-01-27T19:56:56-05:00
Some math for you, mostly meaningless if you look at assumptions. Anyway, if every backer got the $35 campaign, that means 112 cards per person. Rounding to 106,000 backers means that 11,872,000 cards must be printed. This means shipping will take an increased amount of time (due to production time mostly)
John "Collar Stay" Kelly 2015-01-27T19:57:08-05:00
@Rod. Maybe he should start a kickstarter. Ha
Rod "BaKhan" Mitchell 2015-01-27T19:58:37-05:00
@John, I'd back with large dollars! Best stuff written by king!
John "Collar Stay" Kelly 2015-01-27T19:59:40-05:00
@Rod. By far his best work! Have you read the Marvel graphic novels?
Rod "BaKhan" Mitchell 2015-01-27T20:00:54-05:00
@John, I have the wizard in glass one, can't remember what they called it though. Didn't know there were others.
John "Collar Stay" Kelly 2015-01-27T20:04:25-05:00
Yeah a whole series that starts with Roland taking on Cort. Tells the story before the books. Check out Half Price Books of you have one. Can find the hsrd covers for 12.99 or so.

@psyco363 Technically, this is already the 2nd most funded "Game" as No.1 goes to the Ouya, which isn't a game at all but hardware. Torment: Tides of Numenera is the highest funded actual "game" at this point on Kickstarter.
Eric 'Tchotchke' Aschner 2015-01-27T21:54:05-05:00
@Proffejor
Ha, I think I started watching Dice TD after one of your posts here. I had seen it before and was wishy-washy on it, at least moved up to watcher after another few people here said they were backing. (and I think the one I linked to from was you)
I just don't play dice games enough and $50 is a bit steep for a once in a blue moon game.
Donald Quattlebum 2015-01-27T21:56:46-05:00

Since you've raised so much money, and we will all enjoy watching kittens explode in our imaginations, maybe save some real kittens and donate to the SSPCA? http://www.sspca.org/

Good night, grenade chewers. Off to dream of big explosions.
If we overtake Reading Rainbow, I'm going to feel a tad guilty. But just a tad.
@Thomas, they are working with CAH so no worries about the distribution.
@Thomas it will be closer to 250,000 decks by the time everything is counted. keep in mind that well over 95% of all orders are for at least 2 decks (one sfw and one nsfw) at the $35 pledge level.
