we're a dysfunctional happy little family, and always welcoming.
Ebony Bullock 2015-02-10T02:05:17-05:00
Tsveta I'd love to go there sometime! Some of the Natural parks and forests look amazing.
Austin Burkett 2015-02-10T02:05:18-05:00
We really only have ONE more achievement to go. Enchiladas, 50 Cat Ears, and Youtube Videos are done, just not recognized yet. And then we will have 150,000 backers in about 4-5 days at the pace we are going. We just need one of the following: 100,000 facebook likes, 100,000 twitter followers, or 100 cat ears.
Its 9:10 here. Should drag my ass to work before noon or it will be rude.
Andrea Bignardi 2015-02-10T02:12:31-05:00
For box dimensions, remember that some of us backers will use sleeves to protect cards! ;)
Melissa "The Creeper" Nicole 2015-02-10T02:13:02-05:00
2:12 in the morning here. I work nights at a restaurant, and have my own bakery business. So I came home from work, had dinner, made some magical enchiladas (the Game of Thrones ones) and am now working on some bakery orders. and i'm exhausted.

Remember to let people know about Thunderclap. Go register there and we could easily get the 100k Twitter and Facebook numbers. Register and search for E.K. If we keep posting this every hour or two we can do it.
Ebony Bullock 2015-02-10T02:20:11-05:00
Ha! By 'tea' I mean 'dinner' - is that an Australianism?
Linus Lundberg 2015-02-10T02:21:03-05:00
Question: for the 100 people cat ear photo. Photoshop is excluded, but would it be ok to do the following?
100 people (with cat ears) live chat with 1 person that then takes a screendump/photo of the screen of all 100 people wearing catears.
I'm thinking it might be kinda hard to get 100 people together for cat ear photo... but it should be easier with 100 people on the internet.. :)

Also, you can pick up a couple of extra decks for gifts too! Who wouldn't like getting the most awsomeness-gift ever?!?!?
Well, gotta go. Them Android apps don't get pretty by enchiladas.
Love you!
Steven 2015-02-10T02:23:24-05:00
I was so excited about the new exploding kittens box until I saw it. I was really disappointed. For them acquiring almost 6 million dollars it needs more WOW! If you feel the same, I invite you to look at my idea for the new box and to share your own thoughts. #update11
Melissa "The Creeper" Nicole 2015-02-10T02:23:30-05:00
@Ebony - I have never heard that before! Must be.
@Linus - there are a few events going on this week that people are trying to organize 100 people for
@La! Welcome! Are you hero, villain, or neutral?
Melissa "The Creeper" Nicole 2015-02-10T02:24:57-05:00
Steven - They're trying to make everything still ship by expected delivery dates - their main goal. With two decks and the box, and possible magical trinket, $35 really isn't a huge profit margin.
Linus Lundberg 2015-02-10T02:25:35-05:00
@Melissa - Do they look good? 100 people are still alot of people. :)
Side note, what is Kitten corps? :o
Side side note, not a frequent poster :D
Melissa "The Creeper" Nicole 2015-02-10T02:25:55-05:00
Your design is nice, but i don't think it would be possible, given the number of orders-and might also increase shipping rates- and we've heard quite a bit about that already.
Wesley "Ia!" H. 2015-02-10T02:27:47-05:00
@Creeper: Neutral
Alessio Baldini 2015-02-10T02:27:52-05:00
Please, for box dimensions, remember that a lot of us will use sleeves to protect cards!
Soft kitty, warm kitty, little ball of fur, happy kitty, exploding kitty, purr, purr, purr!
Melissa "The Creeper" Nicole 2015-02-10T02:28:13-05:00
www.kittencorps.com Sarah Donner - who posted a song about exploding kittens and gave a free download for it, is having a show in LA and bringing cat ears. I think there's some sot of comic con going on as well, and someone is going to attempt it there.
Steven 2015-02-10T02:28:42-05:00
I am just not impressed with their box idea. It is underwhelming. They have close to 6 million dollars. They could definitely do better, but then again, that is just my opinion.
@Wesley let's just hope it's not a piece of poop like cards against humanity did :D
Ebony Bullock 2015-02-10T02:33:18-05:00
I think the surprise will have something to do with these backer photos we've all been posting. I can't see how, exactly, it's just a hunch.
Melissa "The Creeper" Nicole 2015-02-10T02:33:25-05:00
Everything has been a huge undertaking, the press, the achievements, finding distributors, shipping, design... to design a box that would please everyone and still confirm that it can be produced in these amounts, not add to shipping cost and be ready on time is pretty damn tough.
Horror Junky - Geist de la Muerte Gatito 2015-02-10T02:33:49-05:00
@Idle/Wild: Boo! Live a little.
Melissa "The Creeper" Nicole 2015-02-10T02:34:26-05:00
These are our requests from Kitten corps -
Scratch and sniff hologram trinkets with mood ring capabilities in protective sleeves with fruitcake holographic armor and mystery smell SAS, a hairy boob dragon sweat booster deck, in a protective tin with a protective sleeve for the tin that is EU friendly, with a GPS locating device to find tin within protective trunk in protective lake that is EU friendly.
Real life dragon boob hair with EU Friendly Ambidextrous sleeve, flannel optional
The Creeper (aka Melissa F) will make cake for all
Wesley "Ia!" H. 2015-02-10T02:34:51-05:00
@Ebony: So if there's a Batmans card, the photo that won that achievement will be on the card? Is that what you're implying? If so, that's fantastic.
Horror Junky - Geist de la Muerte Gatito 2015-02-10T02:34:52-05:00
@Stephen: they sent out poop? No one tell Pr.F. He might do the same to all of us.
Melissa "The Creeper" Nicole 2015-02-10T02:35:29-05:00
I'm sure Prof F has already put mine in the mail....
Uriah Watkins 2015-02-10T02:36:29-05:00
The box is a great idea and I'm looking forward to getting it this summer!
Is it going to be big enough to hold the cards if I use sleeves on them? I know it's kind of OCD, but I like my games to endure.
Thanks for making such a great product!
Steven 2015-02-10T02:36:30-05:00
@Ebony that's true, but then again, they just announced the new box, so it might not even be in development. The box I came up with wouldn't be too much more money and then it would feel like that stretch goal was worth it. I don't know I just got really excited when they said the word hinges.....nothing like I was thinking lol
@Melissa - how nice of you! I love cake.
@Wesley - Not sure, I kinda hope not because I love the oatmeal's artwork and our pics just can't look that cool, no matter how funny they are!
@Steven you had a box design?
Nathan Caraviello Couto 2015-02-10T02:44:00-05:00
I hope they make the box with enough space to hold the decks sleeved.
Melissa "The Creeper" Nicole 2015-02-10T02:44:00-05:00
Prof may just wait for me to come outside to get the mail and poop on the sidewalk in front of my building.
Ebony Bullock 2015-02-10T02:44:47-05:00
Tea (dinner) is ready so I'm off. Its been lovely chatting, have a fantastic day/evening/night everyone. I'll be sure to check out the Kitten Corps more thoroughly =)
Steven 2015-02-10T02:45:26-05:00
@ebony yes, I just drew it up like 3 hours ago after I saw the box they said we earned. I was not impressed with their box, so I drew my own and put it up on their twitter page. I mean if you look at how much money they got and how cheap that box looks....it's just kinda disappointing...at least for me, but that's just my feelings.
Going to excavate the manual transmission electric windows Japanese car. Wish me luck.
Kieron 2015-02-10T02:52:54-05:00
Here we go again. Was watching this one since pretty early on but finally decided to pull the trigger on backing.
Kieron 2015-02-10T02:53:28-05:00
I don't even like cats. What I do love is fun card games and the oatmeal.
Dieter 2015-02-10T02:53:58-05:00
"We upgrade all boxes to a deluxe version that holds two decks..."
Does anybody know if that means that we all receive 2 decks ? or simply that the box is capable of holding 2 decks (and so is only half full when you have one deck) ?
@Kieron all the more reason to back just to watch them blow. Welcome.
Lisa 2015-02-10T02:56:03-05:00
A good stretch goal might be to finish off the funding for some other kick starter projects. :)
Melissa "The Creeper" Nicole 2015-02-10T02:58:01-05:00
Dieter - If you pledged $35 - you'll be receiving the standard deck and the NSFW deck. - 2 decks. If you pledged $20 - you'll just be receiving on deck.
Swinging Jivecats of the Voodoo Lounge was already funded, sorry :)
Kieron 2015-02-10T02:59:58-05:00
@Tsveta
That is indeed a good point, but imagine the conundrum when I pick up the exploding kitten card. Do I lose by letting it explode or diffuse it!? I suppose those are all questions for a later time.
Is the box strong ? My cat likes to sleep in boxes. But they must have nice stuff to crush first.
" I am cat I will destroy then sleep on it!!"

Adam Lofthouse 2015-02-10T04:15:49-05:00
I (and I am sure MANY others) would be MASSIVELY appreciative if the box could be designed to be able to both decks with the cards sleeved.
(So basically if you DON'T sleeve them the box will be slightly oversized but not detrimentally so, but for people who sleeve their cards, they all will still fit, and fit nicely.
(Since we're getting in on this before the box is manufactured, hopefully they can integrate this into the design)
Here's hoping they're listening :-)
KITTY KA-BOOM ! !
:D
Joao Oliveira 2015-02-10T04:20:35-05:00
Just to confirm, this last achievement is just an upgrade to the box, not to the number of decks we get, right?

We are Soooo close!
Thank you Melissa.
You'd better come while they are still here :)
Dang can't make a song. Everything turns out to be a poem of some sort.
At least the last one is sing-able.
-wish.
-ish, autocorrect beast!
you guys have come on here when it's pretty quiet. Most people are in bed right now.
Washington, D.C. and it's early in da morning here. I think I will trudge into work early. Or not.
What time is it Melissa?
Its 9:10 here. Should drag my ass to work before noon or it will be rude.

I'd share my coffee but its long gone.

A bonus plastic deck :P
@Idle/Wild: was that Irish coffee you were drinking earlier?
@Steven yes it is a lot, but remember they still have to produce cards and boxes for every backer. Sure the profits get bigger, but so does the work.
Nope, regular brown sugar with espresso on top.

I'm expecting the slave batch any minute now.
Hoping that the cards would be plastic and not a paper/cardboard. Won't last very long if it wasn't durable plastic cards, fit for battle
Wait, the mail is in.
Nope. It's just a brown dwarf.
@Dezeption: And explosions. Can't forget those.

*Turns to the crowd- salutes- *the cat explodes on top of me
3 am. must sleep so i can wake up in a few hours to do more baking. Idle, Geist - Hold down the fort. Watch out for Prof F
La! - if you're around, I emailed Cheetah Butt your info to be added to the site.
Cats as hats would be entertaining.
So am I getting this right? When I pledge for 35$ I will receive both the normal and the NSFW deck twice? So four decks, two from each type?
Dennis, for $35 you get one normal deck, one NSFW deck and the box.
.. and an empty box, to be very precise about it.
Got to admit... I'm a little confused about the depth of the box? Will it now hold 4 decks? But we only get two right? That's going to suck balls.
Apparently stretching is too easy for this group
I thought we would get the game twice when we would get the stretch goal...
@Crabtree, you can put all the cards in the one compartment and some Cheetos in the second
Maybe it will hold two sleeved decks.
Ummm excuse me, when did we pass Mars? Oh joy.
wow, I missed the party, said no one ever...
Keep your cheeks tight.
