so if each new backer pledges just a little over $2k each, we can get the $10M challenge!
Jurriaan Wittenberg 2015-02-10T17:17:40-05:00
@evan. Thanks for your answer. I want to support you and all. I know I want two of the 35$ NSFW sets but I just don't know how much I need to pledge to get the shipping to Europe right.
So If I throw in another $35 now, Is that Ok with you and we'll sort eventual extra shipping costs out later? Is that what you are saying?
James Valenti-Jordan 2015-02-10T17:18:01-05:00
bad new backers! $2k is the entry fee. Stop pledging paltry <$100 sums!
Chris 2015-02-10T17:18:11-05:00
oh crap! that's funny!
thanks Bob
... i thought we got a comment from Wil though. so i thought that would still have been an achievement
Bob "Powers of Tesla" Lindley 2015-02-10T17:19:20-05:00
Does anyone else feel odd about the sense of accomplishment from these achievements? I see the numbers going up and although I personally have no true influence on them or stake in their going up I get a thrill. Must be what people get when watching a professional sport team they support.
James Valenti-Jordan 2015-02-10T17:19:44-05:00
wait, exploding kittens nuked Wil's email? that's just so right on so many levels.
Yes jurriaan, that should be fine. They will let you pledge and pay extra if needed later. Just keep and eye out for email contact telling you to come back to the site to fill in the rest of you details.
Wesley "Ia!" H. 2015-02-10T17:20:10-05:00
@James: Oooor... everyone who already backed could double their pledge and get us there all the same.
PoT, we have been influencing things! Our power is manifesting.
Wesley "Ia!" H. 2015-02-10T17:21:23-05:00
@Bob: I feel the same way.
Kristof Telfix 2015-02-10T17:21:28-05:00
50 ppl with cat ears done! Awesome!!
Mike Kabala 2015-02-10T17:21:29-05:00
OK, you forced me to do it. Due to the imbalance between Villains, Heroes, and Neutrals, I have rearranged each group into their own rectangular section on the Fact Sheet. This allows me to avoid a lot of ugly white space on one side or the other.
Melissa "The Creeper" Nicole 2015-02-10T17:23:10-05:00
Yaaaas! Creepers unicorn enchiladas made it, and sugar whipped's GoT made it!
Eric 'Tchotchke' Aschner 2015-02-10T17:23:25-05:00
No, no... you meant ED.
James Valenti-Jordan 2015-02-10T17:23:46-05:00
@Wesley challenge accepted! I am ordering christmas gifts for my whole family. pledge quadrupled.
Melissa "The Creeper" Nicole 2015-02-10T17:24:09-05:00

Anja "Cha!" Allen 2015-02-10T17:24:42-05:00
@CheetahButt...I'm hereby staking my claim on Flittermittens (Bats + Kittens) to be added to my hoard aehm horde of nittenish minions. I will be sending official email as well to avoid it getting lost in comment section :)
James Valenti-Jordan 2015-02-10T17:25:53-05:00
and their cousins, the fluttermittens, (butterflies + kittens)
Brian Remite 2015-02-10T17:26:21-05:00
So there are a couple REALLY easy achievements that we can get guys. Facebook likes and Twitter follows are a no-brainer. There are almost 150,000 backers, we should all just go do that. I'm ordering enchiladas tonight, one for me and one for my wife, and there will be 2 photos posted by midnight. I plan on writing a song about kittens exploding and posting it this week. That would get us to 30 achievements if we get to 150,000 backers and get some more pics and songs. Who else is with me?
Jurriaan Wittenberg 2015-02-10T17:26:50-05:00
Evan.. sorry, had you mixed up with Elan :)
Wesley "Ia!" H. 2015-02-10T17:27:34-05:00
@Brian: We've already got all the enchilada photos, and Exploding Kittens is putting them on Facebook as we speak. They just have yet to update the achievement board.
Marie "Catness" C 2015-02-10T17:27:41-05:00
Brian, we're all with you.
Bob "Powers of Tesla" Lindley 2015-02-10T17:27:45-05:00
Hmmmm... Only 19 Enchiladas. Perhaps we didn't get all the way there yet.
Προφέσσορ Φ 2015-02-10T17:28:02-05:00
I've risen from my hyperbaric chamber only to make a stupid suggestion. We goad organise the EK team in the future to make another campaign for the Apple/Android version of Exploding Kittens. An indefinite amount of players can be added as long as they have a smartphone or tablet, and one extra device in the middle (optional). An ad-hoc vpn network is created to accommodate the game, while animations & sound effects could be added to make the game more 2K like. Breaking your device is not covered by the EK. Ok, back to dreaming now.
Marie "Catness" C 2015-02-10T17:28:58-05:00
Brian, it's underselling it to call the Twitter and Facebook follows a "no-brainer." We might hit the Facebook thing, but we're not going to hit Twitter. It would take 100k people cooperating, which is actually a difficult thing to accomplish in general, but especially in a less popular platform.
Wesley "Ia!" H. 2015-02-10T17:29:59-05:00
The thing with the Twitter and Facebook thing is that not all of the backers are here in the comments section with us. A great many people pledged and went along on their merry day.
Eric 'Tchotchke' Aschner 2015-02-10T17:30:29-05:00
Yeah, about 100k of them...
Bob "Powers of Tesla" Lindley 2015-02-10T17:30:39-05:00
Oh! 23...
Marie "Catness" C 2015-02-10T17:30:47-05:00
PoT, they didn't accept the glowing enchiladas. . . :-(
Melissa "The Creeper" Nicole 2015-02-10T17:31:29-05:00
When photos are posted to Facebook- they get shared, thus increasing the traffic to their page immensely! The fans have shot ip since they started adding backer photos.
Melissa "The Creeper" Nicole 2015-02-10T17:31:50-05:00
@catness- they may still be adding.
Bob "Powers of Tesla" Lindley 2015-02-10T17:32:01-05:00
Sorry Catness. My Magical meat enchiladas, now with unicorn sprinkles made it.
Kevin "Lord Zombitten" Buckner 2015-02-10T17:32:40-05:00
They still neef to upload 2 enchiladas. If they didn't accept the glower, they probably already had 25
Marie "Catness" C 2015-02-10T17:32:56-05:00
PoT, good work! All that we can get.
Wesley "Ia!" H. 2015-02-10T17:33:04-05:00
One more enchilada photo remains to be added.
Marie "Catness" C 2015-02-10T17:33:23-05:00
Creeper, it helped that Matt shared a song to The Oatmeal page, too.
Kevin "Lord Zombitten" Buckner 2015-02-10T17:34:25-05:00
That's 25! Cha!'s enchilada pic made it
Bob "Powers of Tesla" Lindley 2015-02-10T17:34:30-05:00
Oh yeah... That's the stuff. 25 Magical enchiladas on board.
Marie "Catness" C 2015-02-10T17:34:46-05:00
I don't care if they use the glowing enchilada, I'm just exciting the achievement has been completed. I thought PoT was saying that they had announced we only had 19 qualifying entries.
Wesley "Ia!" H. 2015-02-10T17:34:50-05:00
There it is! 25 enchilada photos have been uploaded! We've got it!
Marie "Catness" C 2015-02-10T17:34:56-05:00
Boom!
Marie "Catness" C 2015-02-10T17:35:30-05:00
Idle/Wild's enchiladas made it!

How come that we still don't have 100k followers on twitter and facebook. That was supposed to be the easiest part a still there are only 60k followers on twitter and 80k people who like kittens on fb. It's a bit frustrating.
Marie "Catness" C 2015-02-10T17:40:21-05:00
150k is happening and it's happening soon!
Marie "Catness" C 2015-02-10T17:41:04-05:00
Vojtech, I don't think anyone here thought those would be the easiest part. Don't worry, though. We don't need those ones.
Eric 'Tchotchke' Aschner 2015-02-10T17:41:14-05:00
@Vojtech
Those were far from the easiest part. Honestly, I'm surprised at how fast we've gotten this close.
Yay! My last midnight toils to create a 'no food was harmed...' Magical Enchilada was accepted!!! *bouncebouncebounce*
Now I can enjoy my not accepted first ever REAL Magical Enchilada Sacrifice :)

@Creeper ok, but you officially have to be classified as our child in california to get the health benefits. hopefully that does creep you out too much

Sorry Geist, when it comes to marrying off your benefits, it's all about the cake. Creeper's got you easy.
Marie "Catness" C 2015-02-10T17:57:25-05:00
Robert, we don't need to hit the 100k Twitter followers. We're generally considering the money goal and the Twitter goal to be not achievable. We just need to get either the cat ears or Facebook. Everything else is easily on track.
so if each new backer pledges just a little over $2k each, we can get the $10M challenge!
@evan. Thanks for your answer. I want to support you and all. I know I want two of the 35$ NSFW sets but I just don't know how much I need to pledge to get the shipping to Europe right.

Sorry Geist, when it comes to marrying off your benefits, it's all about the cake. Creeper's got you easy.
Robert, we don't need to hit the 100k Twitter followers. We're generally considering the money goal and the Twitter goal to be not achievable. We just need to get either the cat ears or Facebook. Everything else is easily on track.
