Hm. What about a photo of 100 people and put ears on the photo and shoot it again?
Kevin "Lord Zombitten" Buckner 2015-02-06T03:54:12-05:00
No, but there are people who have plans to take care of the cat ears photos. A ten person cat ear photo was posted a few hours ago, but EK hasn't accepted it yet
Kevin "Lord Zombitten" Buckner 2015-02-06T03:59:55-05:00
Yeah. I think it was tweeted after EK went to bed. I'm sure they'll retweet it before I wake up

Well, someone got 10 cat ears. Other than that - nope :(
Tamara "Miss Puss" 2015-02-06T04:43:40-05:00
ahw.... breaking my head over where I could find a goat around here though. oh well, might just try and harass my very uncooperative cats for a beardcat :P
Tamara "Miss Puss" 2015-02-06T05:02:15-05:00
Beardcat accomplished and tweeted. you guys think they would accept a beardcat from the same person, with a different cat?
Peter 'General Calculus' W. 2015-02-06T05:05:00-05:00
@Tamara, they accepted a cat with a beard.
Tamara "Miss Puss" 2015-02-06T05:13:51-05:00
ok! Just found out the petting zoo one city away does have goats. Mission set! :D
Tamara "Miss Puss" 2015-02-06T05:34:45-05:00
also, started tweeting people with failed goatselfies for @gameofkittens asking them nicely to redo the pics with #update9 in the picture. Tomorrow, I can make one myself. Dedication to the cause!
Also, It's awfull quiet around here.... #talkingtomyself
I've added a Dutch Wikipedia, saw there was a French one also.

If your roachen can't handle a few pesky chemicals keep them out of the lab.

@dark-spirit many of us requested stretch goals and not to just be given something for something we'd already done. We're definitely going to hit the 20 mark I'm sure of it. It's the 30 to get the prize that makes them unbelievably happy that we're not sure we're going to hit.

It is not they cannot handle it, their DNA has been hacked as advised last week. It is the insolence exhibited by the action itself towards them. Roachen are higher up on the global command than slaves.
And they still can't defend themselves? Always running to mom? Some command.

Please forgive the tone of my last two posts. I still need to consume more butt beans from the Caffeittens.
@Mike You are forgiven though the tone seemed more inquisitive/sarcastic than anything. I also was hoping for an update to the infographic. I both tweeted and emailed the EK team no reply yet I'll keep you posted.
There really wasn't too much happening Cheetahbutt. I did get inspired by Poz into creating the Contradickttens: the cats that are never what they appear to be, and it's maddening.
@ProfF I like it. It allows me to mingle.
And said despise saves me from having to side with your ughs.
Shaun Fergus 2015-02-06T08:34:28-05:00
@dark-spirit - it isn't just about reaching a goal to achieve a new item/stretch... the creators have decided to approach this from a different angle and add an element of fun for fun's sake to the KS... a fun challenge for a fun game... makes sense to me

@Shaun well said. Everyone seems to be having a great time both here on the comments and posting RIDICULOUS photos to twitter. This is the most engaged I've been in a KS after deciding to back. Not that I've backed a lot but something about this keeps drawing me back. Those potattens are addictive.

OOOOO I had an idea...You know which celebrities love blowing stuff up(I'm not sure on their feelings about kittens) The guys from mythbusters Adam Savage @donttrythis & Jamie Hyneman @JamieNoTweet. Perhaps if we ask nicely they will tweet about our awesome combustible felines!
I can just see it... "I'm a walrus and I don't try this on my cat at home. However, here's an Adam and he's savage."
Mike Kabala 2015-02-06T08:53:37-05:00
@idle/Wild, I think they removed the celebrity tweets after they realized it was a bad idea. It was causing a negative backlash. Remember: Never ask permission. Always ask forgiveness. ;-)
This is what I tweeted them. Feel free to use the same or write your own to @JamieNoTweet amd @DontTryThis
this based on your love of explosions youd love the Exploding kittens Kickstarter @gameofkittens and was hoping youd tweet it 4 us!
Goodnight LZ.
And how come only two? Maaan.
Because only two have satisfied all the requirements
I know at least one of the two was mine, though. The other may have been, as well. I submitted two of them
Good :) Now you only need 22 more.
I don't know if I can find that many goats
Hm. What about a photo of 100 people and put ears on the photo and shoot it again?
No, but there are people who have plans to take care of the cat ears photos. A ten person cat ear photo was posted a few hours ago, but EK hasn't accepted it yet

@Peter I'll look into the script but can't promise anything. It's been some time since I got rid of it.
an ostrich? seems dangerous. Why not a goat? You can make a selfie while your at it :P
Goat are dangerous too, you know.

On this episode: can a cat actually launch a missile by running over the keyboard?
Plausible.
An oatmeal/EK myth.... hmm....
I wanna see the tests.
I don't know why we didn't think of them sooner!
If they make it I want a recording. Nobody knows which year exactly it's going to be aired here.
I just figured out why Élan is so slow about updating the backers. He used to work for Microsoft.
Xbox technically... :)
But I guess all departments are like that.
That doesn't really seem here or there Mike, and fairly biased.
@potatten, LOL
never ask for permission, always ask for forgiveness
So that means I can continue to spray Pr.F's roachens without permission and ask for his forgiveness later. Like after all of them are dead.
