@John, postings can be made on their Fb account or on twitter. Enchiladas are magical when they include rainbows, unicorns, ligers, or other magical things.
Peter 'General Calculus' W. 2015-02-04T10:48:08-05:00
@John: You can carve a cat from a potatoe or even easier take one poatatoe and stick black beads for eyes into it and toothpicks for whiskers, photograph and tweet it or have someone tweet it for you.
Eric 'Trinkets' Baumgarten 2015-02-04T10:50:20-05:00
@Historian, lol. I always say that cats adopt people, not the other way. Even trickster cats ;-)

Dub step mustache cat (I know, not beard cat or cat beard). 1 hour loop. Drive your co workers mad.
Peter 'General Calculus' W. 2015-02-04T10:51:37-05:00
200 backers in 1 hour 20 minutes... that's not bad for this time of the day and this far in in the campaign... not bad at all.
Andrew 2015-02-04T10:52:56-05:00
There are already several picture posts on the exploding kittens Facebook page. I wonder when they will update the achievements?
Eric 'Trinkets' Baumgarten 2015-02-04T10:54:28-05:00
Space Ghost just got done with her yearly exam. She received an excellent rating. Yeah :-D
Horror Junky - Geist de la Muerte Gatito 2015-02-04T10:56:16-05:00
@Trinkets, that is good to hear! Space Ghost deserves a treat
Chris "The Historian" Loth 2015-02-04T10:59:13-05:00
@Trinkets, excellent news! :) I also agree, the cat definitely chooses the person. ...it's probably based on how much they can annoy the person and still have the person care for them.
"The Potatten chooses the backer Trinkets, it's not always clear why..."
Eric 'Trinkets' Baumgarten 2015-02-04T10:59:59-05:00
Treats for all cats!!

@ellen pls
Evan Carroll 2015-02-04T11:02:37-05:00
There's gotta be enough cat beards in the Facebook replies to qualify for an achievement.
PS. Kickstarter backer card distinction!
PPS. Super-fanciest box for Collectors Deck and Deck of Legends!!
Eric 'Trinkets' Baumgarten 2015-02-04T11:03:02-05:00
No treats for my Stella though. She's the cat for my avatar. She's a little butterball.

Jean-Claude Van Damme Shot a bunch of footage of himself in front of a green screen for people to make videos out of. Would be funny to see him in an exploding kittens video

Just added a potatocat to their FB page.
Horror Junky - Geist de la Muerte Gatito 2015-02-04T11:08:12-05:00
@Trinkets, is it my imagination or is your Stella missing half of an ear?
Bob "Powers of Tesla" Lindley 2015-02-04T11:08:19-05:00
Looking at their FB page. Who knew there were so many pictures of people with goats? I thought that would be a toughie. Not so much.
I dare someone to go in and edit the Wikipedia page.
No... I DOUBLE DOG DARE.
Eric 'Trinkets' Baumgarten 2015-02-04T11:15:38-05:00
@Geist, she was a resue cat. She was hit by a car, had multiple hip and leg fractures(that's why she is sitting on the side of her butt), frostbite had taken half the one ear, a little of the other and part of her tail. She is the joy in my life.

Melissa "The Creeper" Nicole 2015-02-04T11:31:15-05:00
Hi cha! I grabbed it last night when the twitter-verse exploded. Panicked it might be taken from us! I tweeted the appropriate people, but won't be too active on it until after campaign.
Catzalcoatal 2015-02-04T11:31:49-05:00
EK's Facebook page has a sketch for a zombie kitten. Good material for a starting point on the zombitten picture for Kittencorps!
Honestly? I think the 100,000% one is out of reach. $10,000,000? When 135k backers only gives just over 5mil? And because we only get the last stretch goal if EVERYTHING is completed... It's likely an unreachable goal. Enjoy the hinged magnetized box.
Catzalcoatal 2015-02-04T11:34:34-05:00
EK Facebook is averaging about 2 new follows per page refresh. The likes are stacking up fast.
@Robert: Not necessarily true, there are a number of low dollar backers and there will be a sharp influx at the end. I'm not saying it's likely, I'm just saying it's possible.
Rod "BaKhan" Mitchell 2015-02-04T11:35:40-05:00
@Robert, there are actually 32 potential unlocks!
Catzalcoatal 2015-02-04T11:36:00-05:00
@ Robert
There are 32 achievements, we only need 30.
Anja "Cha!" Allen 2015-02-04T11:36:12-05:00
@Cheery Pie...added ...thanks! :)
Robert Andruszko 2015-02-04T11:36:19-05:00
Oh! I lied! 30 achievements allows us to MISS 10 million! *whew*
Of course, we were supposed to get something amazing in our boxes anyway.
Horror Junky - Geist de la Muerte Gatito 2015-02-04T11:37:25-05:00
@Eric, cats are truely joys. I miss my two. I don't know if I could ever have another.
We are supposed to get something amazing anyway, but I'm not turning down the possibility of two potential EU Friendly Trinkets....
Catzalcoatal 2015-02-04T11:37:54-05:00
Man, I hope the artwork on the SG box is off the hook. Not just the deck image blown up.
Melissa "The Creeper" Nicole 2015-02-04T11:38:01-05:00
I can't wait for the first tweet from one of these celebs... I really hope they do it.
Dave Monteforte 2015-02-04T11:38:09-05:00
Where are we supposed to post this stuff anyway? because i have one of the fattest cats ever ready for her bikini shoot :) and another bitchy ass fluffball ready for her tacobell interview
@Robert: You mean the cards aren't something amazing to begin with? O.o
Catzalcoatal 2015-02-04T11:38:39-05:00
@ Dave, to be safe I'd say their official Facebook page.
Bob "Powers of Tesla" Lindley 2015-02-04T11:39:24-05:00
Okay. About the Twitter. Can I see what they see? Can I see their "wall" or whatever it's called? I can see what they've Tweeted, I can see what they've replied to. But I have no idea how many of what types of photos they've gotten.
Rod "BaKhan" Mitchell 2015-02-04T11:39:46-05:00
@Geist, when my last cat passed away, I was crushed, I had him (or vice versa) for 20 years! A good friend of mine told me that the best way to keep his memory alive was to get another cat, whilst nothing can ever replace your lost cat, this truely worked for me, plus helped me to get over the pain.
Melissa "The Creeper" Nicole 2015-02-04T11:39:54-05:00
@geist :( that breaks my heart. Their personalities are so distinct... I understand. But think about getting a shelter cat, an older one without having hope of being adopted. You'll be giving it a nice home.
Anja "Cha!" Allen 2015-02-04T11:39:59-05:00

I would be tempted, but would otherwise no really care unless it came as a SG. I have calenders, I would never use it and it would get buried to never be seen again.

Is it bad that I have memorized the dollar amount for RR so I can do the math quicker to see how much further we have to beat it?
@Cherrie Pie...have you seen this one? Dub Step Cat vs. Dub Step Cat

Dang @Cheery Pie...sorry for messin' up your nick :(
@"CHA!"
"@Cherrie Pie...have you seen this one? Dub Step Cat vs. Dub Step Cat
https://www.youtube.com/watch…"
HA HA HA HA! ! !
@GCoD, not all, you're in good company!
@Cheery Pie...added 'Reach' :)
Dang those are some impressive achievements to unlock!
Double Dang It...My brain is clearly not in sync with my fingers...HUMAN not Cat Cat...grrrrs ;)
They may be impressive, but it is possible we have already hit nine of them, once the West Coast fully wakes up and processes the incoming data.
The hardest ones, I think, are going to be the likes and follows. I think we'll get the %100,000 backed, but not until LATE in the [game].
If the three celebs tweet today, that nails another three SG.
Who is @WilW though? Is that Will Wheaton from Star Trek?
Yes, Ensign Crusher hisself
What's their Facebook page again, I can go like that right now!

Let's just make it...

@Cha!, I always get my pets from shelters! Its the only way to go, so many fur balls need good homes!
They got 12k Twitter Followers now. So that means the 10k Twitter Follower achievement is done, but 100k Twitter Followers seems impossible tbh.
Update for Kittencorps. Timelord Kittens need to have their description updated. It should say: "Experts at wibbly wobbly timey wimey stuff!"
@Katie: I think you meant #Potatten
@Kristen, chin up! Where theres a weird, theres a way!
@Creeper. Thanks!
@baKhaneufriendly- nice.

@Great Mountain, good morning sir!
@BaKhan ... *big smile*
@BaKhan: I will give you morning...it remains to be seen if it is good yet.
For all of you cat lovers out there check out this 365 cat calendar deal on amazon :-)
http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/0761177531…
now if only they were exploding cats lol
@Great Mountain, still under the weather? Its going up to 3C today!
Yeah, still under. But better than yesterday at least.
@ Owen
I find the wibbly wobbley quote to be the best. As it also referenced fixed time points and their unchanging permanence in the timeline.
@Joshua: Everyone loves cats, but no one wants more calenders.
@Evan what if Oatmeal made an exploding cats calendar would you buy one then ?
@Joshua, would it be sleeved and EU friendly?
I would be tempted, but would otherwise no really care unless it came as a SG. I have calenders, I would never use it and it would get buried to never be seen again.
@Joshua: Would it have free shipping for a SG?
There are 49,775 likes on the Facebook Exploding Kittens page - almost half way to the next goal of 100,000 likes.... We can do it!!!
