@Geist RR and so many projects I've backed where the backers begged for SGs and extras and then got angry when shipping was delayed and creators updated less and less as backers got madder and madder is why I keep pointing out the problems with asking for more rewards. We already have one person on their back about shipping I don't want to see this great group of happy and fun backers turn into a crowd of discontent.
Andre "Silver Ninjatten" Bernier 2015-02-06T11:55:00-05:00
@catzalcoatal Basically yes. We made them cry uncle

Peter 'General Calculus' W. 2015-02-06T11:56:41-05:00
@Silver, sure can,,,
Given current numbers (which may or may not uphold in the endgame) we will pick up another 22,400 backers and about $900k totalling at 160k backers and $6,000k.

@Explaitten: It's like buying stock in a company. Those folks are happy if their stock goes up and stays that way. You don't see them begging for freebies just for buying stock of their own free will. I just want the product, screw getting a ton of extras.

@Horror Juny, no problem: The projected outcome of you winning the next lottery based on these numbers is about 0. Plus/minus 0.023.
I had goats on my front lawn eating the mulberry tree instead of mowing the lawn when I was a kid. as a kid I got to yell at the kids (baby goats) to get off the lawn (back into their enclosed area).
Jack "Meow-tair, Head Catssassin" 2015-02-06T12:00:55-05:00
@Geist Yeah, I backed the project because I want the card game. I don't really need or want a whole lot of extras. The fact that I'm getting this awesome game and the fact that the guys have already far and away made more than they'll ever need for the project means I don't really need SG's either. I mean, they're fun and cool and whatnot, but not necessary.
Horror Junky - Geist de la Muerte Gatito 2015-02-06T12:01:42-05:00

@Tamara, wrecking your brain should help too, but I recommend wracking your brain! lol!
Ah. My friends and I normally play video games. We're spread all across the world...so hard to get together for board games. Though one of my friends and I are planning a board/card/pool games night sometime mid to late May.

Probably to horrific. I kinda doubt they'd let me take a picture in any case.

It's been done DDD. Don't know if it counted though.
Experiencing Life to the Fullest-Da Wolf 2015-02-06T12:11:29-05:00
POT - just make sure you can tell it is a goat. Ask them and they worst they can say is no. Right?
Melissa "The Creeper" Nicole 2015-02-06T12:11:50-05:00
@DDD- I saw someone did that with Lord Z's selfie, and Someone else took one with a picture of a goat on their computer screen. Didn't see if either were accepted.
Kevin "Lord Zombitten" Buckner 2015-02-06T12:13:54-05:00
Last official word was that only two goat selfies had been accepted. One was mine and one was some guy holding a goat with a piece of paper
Bob "Powers of Tesla" Lindley 2015-02-06T12:14:11-05:00
Wow. That IBM cat ear pic is getting re-Tweeted pretty hard.
Catzalcoatal 2015-02-06T12:14:11-05:00
Goat photos HAVE to be selfies. AKA not taken by another person. They gave exception to one tweet where the person was holding the goat in their arms.
BruceP - The Chameleon 2015-02-06T12:14:18-05:00
@DDD,
Yeah! :)
Experiencing Life to the Fullest-Da Wolf 2015-02-06T12:14:19-05:00
Come on backers there has to be a cat taco stand somewhere in Asia or Central America you can take a picture at with a clearly visible sign of #update9!
Melissa "The Creeper" Nicole 2015-02-06T12:14:20-05:00
I don't think they accepted the woman with the goat painting either, even after she re-took it w #update9 sign
Andre "Silver Ninjatten" Bernier 2015-02-06T12:14:31-05:00
@DDD I would love to see someone make T-shirts with #Update9 take over as a meme
Jeff "Great Cane of Doom"™ Saxton 2015-02-06T12:14:33-05:00
Well, anyway, BGG is a great resource with tons of information and a database on games, some going back to the 1680's. Well worth looking into if you like games.

Andre "Silver Ninjatten" Bernier 2015-02-06T12:15:28-05:00
@POT speaking of pretty hard.... I could use a drink.
"Diamond Dan" Drake 2015-02-06T12:15:44-05:00
I was mostly thinking for the people who already had goat-selfies. A new selfie that would show the person holding a picture of themselves with a goat and #update9... So they could tell it's the same person. But if we don't know if they've accepted the others it's not worth it.
Catzalcoatal 2015-02-06T12:15:52-05:00
I'll ask again. If I have a goatee, would that count for the beard cat photo?
Melissa "The Creeper" Nicole 2015-02-06T12:15:58-05:00
Surprised #explodingkittens or #update9 still isn't on the trending list. Wish i could get a top 20.
BruceP - The Chameleon 2015-02-06T12:16:27-05:00
@Catzalcoatal,
Unlikely. Only way to know for sure is to take a pic and submit it. ;)
Andre "Silver Ninjatten" Bernier 2015-02-06T12:16:35-05:00
@Catzalcoatal They are being pretty strict with what they are accepting.
Catzalcoatal 2015-02-06T12:16:55-05:00
Even if that goatee is accompanies by a Rolly Fingers moustache?
Melissa "The Creeper" Nicole 2015-02-06T12:16:57-05:00
Hmm, Yeah - i thought about that They could try it, ddd. And Catz - not sure they would accept that. They don't seem to be accepting people with stuffed toy goats, either.
Experiencing Life to the Fullest-Da Wolf 2015-02-06T12:17:06-05:00
Catzalcoatal - it would be a selfie with a goat-ee.
Catzalcoatal 2015-02-06T12:18:07-05:00
@Da Wolf
Haha, I was thinking that for the goat photo. Goat-ee self-ee......cmon EK it count's right?
Jeff "Great Cane of Doom"™ Saxton 2015-02-06T12:18:09-05:00
I wouldn't accept anyone with a stuffed toy goat either, next they'll have an inflatable goat, and hip waders ..and you know where that leads.

TC - my social reach for the Thunder Clap is climbing. I am up to 27 now and still climbing.
It's been done DDD. Don't know if it counted though.
POT - just make sure you can tell it is a goat. Ask them and they worst they can say is no. Right?
@DDD- I saw someone did that with Lord Z's selfie, and Someone else took one with a picture of a goat on their computer screen. Didn't see if either were accepted.
@DDD I'm not sure. I was thinking of trying that on Sunday when my husband can take pictures & I can hopefully find my goat album.
Has anyone tried a selfie with a Goat-ee?
@ Drake and @ Bob
Saw a tweet where they said they frown on the use of photos and unauthorized use of other's photos. So I'm going to guess they don't count those.
Think I saw a tweet frowning on someone planning to use a cat ear group photo too.
Well, everyone should just put on their #update9 t-shirts and wear them everyday in case an opportunity presents itself :P
@Explaitten LOL the definition of a selfie is that you take the picture.
My estimate for todays goal (0 GMT) is $5,492k.

Last official word was that only two goat selfies had been accepted. One was mine and one was some guy holding a goat with a piece of paper
Wow. That IBM cat ear pic is getting re-Tweeted pretty hard.
Goat photos HAVE to be selfies. AKA not taken by another person. They gave exception to one tweet where the person was holding the goat in their arms.
@DDD,
Yeah! :)
Come on backers there has to be a cat taco stand somewhere in Asia or Central America you can take a picture at with a clearly visible sign of #update9!
I don't think they accepted the woman with the goat painting either, even after she re-took it w #update9 sign
@DDD I would love to see someone make T-shirts with #Update9 take over as a meme
Well, anyway, BGG is a great resource with tons of information and a database on games, some going back to the 1680's. Well worth looking into if you like games.
Twitter followers up to 41.4 K - big leap from yesterday that held steady at 35 for the majority of the day.
@POT speaking of pretty hard.... I could use a drink.
I was mostly thinking for the people who already had goat-selfies. A new selfie that would show the person holding a picture of themselves with a goat and #update9... So they could tell it's the same person. But if we don't know if they've accepted the others it's not worth it.
I'll ask again. If I have a goatee, would that count for the beard cat photo?
Surprised #explodingkittens or #update9 still isn't on the trending list. Wish i could get a top 20.
@Catzalcoatal,
Unlikely. Only way to know for sure is to take a pic and submit it. ;)
@Catzalcoatal They are being pretty strict with what they are accepting.
Even if that goatee is accompanies by a Rolly Fingers moustache?
Hmm, Yeah - i thought about that They could try it, ddd. And Catz - not sure they would accept that. They don't seem to be accepting people with stuffed toy goats, either.
Catzalcoatal - it would be a selfie with a goat-ee.
@Da Wolf
Haha, I was thinking that for the goat photo. Goat-ee self-ee......cmon EK it count's right?
I wouldn't accept anyone with a stuffed toy goat either, next they'll have an inflatable goat, and hip waders ..and you know where that leads.
