I'm just really hoping the card quality and the packaging are top notch. If sleeves come included, that's merely a bonus to me. I really cant imagine many other potential stretch goals.
Tj Swanson 2015-01-29T18:43:18-05:00
I don't think these guys own sleeves @Dave. But if they do, they should have holographic boobdragons on each
Eric 'Trinkets' Baumgarten 2015-01-29T18:43:41-05:00
@Dave, with this amount of funding, they should be high quality. Probs no on getting sleeves.

@Chameleon, it was showing up multiple times for me at any rate... Have I been spending too much time around Bolt??
@TJ, pre-100k and you haven't given in to the madness? What's your secret? I bet it's a protective collector tin, isn't it?

Thanks for the recap! Stretch goal or stretch goat?
And any predictions on how many backers and how much pledged? I'm going for the GDP of a small country...

"The community is also helping to improve on the game, Lee said. Commenters on the Kickstarter page flagged their concern about left-handed accessibility when it comes to fanning out cards. Now the "Exploding Kittens" team is looking into how to make the game easy to use for right and left-handed people."

@Josh D,
When did anyone in here voice concerns about handedness? I never saw that...
BruceP - The Chameleon 2015-01-29T18:48:56-05:00
@Trinkets,
I'm a lefty, but it's a card game. I've never see one that mattered whether you were left or right handed.

All I'm sayin, is I managed to bake a cake and a dozen cupcakes while maintaining my secretarial duties.

@owen it's starting to feel like modern day comics "I missed a month, wonder what happened to the xmen last adventure?" *$100+ dollars, 20 tie in issues and nine cataclysmic events later....*
I'm kind of in the neutral zone(for now...noone knows how a force of nature will act :P)

I should have known
Melissa "The Creeper" Nicole 2015-01-29T19:02:52-05:00
@Greatmountain - you remind me of the guy, in the mountains, who takes in a group of people running from the pottatens and brussel sprittens of the world - and gives them shelter for a few days, while polishing your collection of coins and arrowheads.
"Diamond Dan" Drake 2015-01-29T19:04:19-05:00
Wow, I was at the tail end of comments late last night and someone asked what everyone was talking about with tins, and sleeves, and trinkets and potato salad. I gave a brief rundown... but things have... "evolved" quite a bit. Even with @Melissa's handy list I'm sure everyone new thinks we're crazy in here. They are correct.
Kevin "Lord Zombitten" Buckner 2015-01-29T19:04:25-05:00
Melissa, he also polishes his collection of ks exclusive tins
@Dan: I was hungry and bored... it snowballed from there.

@Lord Zombitten "Turn the page, wash your hands. Turn the page, Wash your hands" he mutters as he turns the pages of his collector's deck of exploding kittens all tucked in their protective sleeves

I hope this never ends...
Tj Swanson 2015-01-29T19:08:25-05:00
Who would have thought, people buying this game would be so odd...

lol Yeah, what? People on the interwebs are weird? No way! :)
Rod "BaKhan" Mitchell 2015-01-29T19:09:19-05:00
@The Creeper, were those EU friendly sleeves?
Kevin "Lord Zombitten" Buckner 2015-01-29T19:09:50-05:00
@TJ, I know, right? I would expect this from the shuffleboard crowd, but not the EK bunch...
Kevin "Lord Zombitten" Buckner 2015-01-29T19:10:35-05:00
@Rod, I think they were. Carbon fiber, too
Rod "BaKhan" Mitchell 2015-01-29T19:11:25-05:00
@LZ, okay then, it was a close one!
Melissa "The Creeper" Nicole 2015-01-29T19:11:29-05:00
@EU Friendly *looks back* I believe... just give me one second...It appears as if.. Yes. Yes they are indeed EU Friendly.
BruceP - The Chameleon 2015-01-29T19:11:37-05:00
Lord Zombitten is gonna blow! Someone get the containment suit!
Melissa "The Creeper" Nicole 2015-01-29T19:12:11-05:00
@Trinkets: Wouldn't that fall under your jurisdiction?
Sorry I disappeared, saw my Aunt at the train station.
Chris "The Historian" Loth 2015-01-29T19:29:23-05:00
Okay heroes, villains, and neutral entities, I must take Mrs. The Historian to dinner. I'll be on when I can. Be ever vigilant for the potattens and frutattens!
Kevin "Lord Zombitten" Buckner 2015-01-29T19:29:48-05:00

Chameleons, that's what the Man wants you to think
I step away for 5min and 30 comments happen. Can't leave this for even one minute it seems.
I'm a lefty too, never once had a problem with "right handed" playing cards.
@TJ,
The Man! Such a dastardly villain!
@melf (it's an amalgam, get it?)
I know I know. My wife keeps telling me that too, " less work, more trivia crack and Spiderman unlimited"
And I'm behind on the comments again. Damn you 2nd job!
@Chameleon, that might be deserving of some additional research... Or could also be the KS site on my N6... It seems to be a bit wonky.
@Creator SG...
5M Upgrade quality cards...
5.25...5$ Shipping discount
5.5K... EU friendly
5.75... Spanish traslation ;-)
@TJ: If I can run a full payroll while following comments, you should be able to hhalf follow them. :P
SO our villains are Wicked Felina, Dr. Potatten, and The Man
1,000,008!
All I'm sayin, is I managed to bake a cake and a dozen cupcakes while maintaining my secretarial duties.
Damn The Man!
@owen it's starting to feel like modern day comics "I missed a month, wonder what happened to the xmen last adventure?" *$100+ dollars, 20 tie in issues and nine cataclysmic events later....*
@Dr Pottaten,
Yes, so far it's you 3. ;)
Has backer 120,000 come forward yet?
@Dr Pottaten,
Oh, and we can't forget Tchotchke!
Changed my profile pic.
@Owen, I'm trying gorammit, I just got started. No one told me anybody but Sandy Petersen was here
That's right, Potatten, and the rest of us are here with our fruitattens and my zombittens to stand between you and world domination!
Nice, Cheetah Butt!
@Dr Pottaten,
Oh, and I would count Lord Zombitten as a villain, as well. Anyone who controls Zombittens HAS to be evil. :) So 5 villains.
@Cheetah Butt, nice pic!
Oh, I almost forgot about Lord Zombitten and Tchotchke!
I'm a hero right??
Since I take orders from the potattens would that make me good or evil?
@Blackhawk,
I thought so. Unless you don't want to be....
Nice work @ CheetahButt
@Blackhawk, the historical record shows you are one of the great champions in this war.
I need to change my pic when I get to my computer. Not the best to try and do while standing on the train typing one thumbed.
@sycophant cheetah butter (I'ma leave that type there) I approve!
I will be a hero. :)
@Cheetah Butt,
Oh, you take orders from the Pottatens? Then I guess you're an evil suck-up. lol And indirectly controlled by Dr. Pottaten.
Oddly enough, over 50% of the EU friendly requests have come from Andres P.S.
I'm kind of in the neutral zone(for now...noone knows how a force of nature will act :P)
@GM, I do... But I'm not telling.

Not sure if they are ambidextrous, however.
@TJ are you including yourself in that description?
Disaster averted. Sounding the all-clear!
Da Wolf is ambidexterious. Either paw can clean headlights.
I don't think the sleeves were ambidextrous, but the cards were
There could be a randomly inserted hairy boob dragon hair chase card.
Maybeone lucky backer will open their box and find a stale fruitcake.
So they might find a fruitcake, then
Yeap or a piece of flannel or a dead mouse.
I have plenty of dead mice to give away
Great Mountain is in charge of all Flannel
This couldbe a SG of trading inyourreward for mystery box.
@Da Wolf.
Did Great Mountain pack the boxes? lol
@The Chameleon - great Mountain supervising Cheetah Butt.
@Da Wolf,
That explains much
Marking my territory so the tying is wonky.
I try not to mark my territory and tie anything, personally.
I wanna play this game already... haha
I just want an update. Hopefully we can get flannel sleeves for the cards. @GreatMountain, can you make that happen?
@Cal not until I've had a chance! After all, I was one of the first 300 backers
@Trinkets, Canadian edition!
Man the numbers just keep going up.
@Trinkets: Wouldn't that fall under your jurisdiction?
Sorry I disappeared, saw my Aunt at the train station.
Okay heroes, villains, and neutral entities, I must take Mrs. The Historian to dinner. I'll be on when I can. Be ever vigilant for the potattens and frutattens!

@Great Mountain, I thought you were in charge of flannel.
Have fun in the real world!
