Also, like that dumb "Cat Simulator", some of the games just look like shit on a stick.
Anja "Cha!" Allen 2015-02-13T18:03:45-05:00
And we can also just be people and address any posting of 'other stuff' case by case or just ignore it. There's a difference between a post and multiple spam posts.
I like to see/hear what others back and yeah I can go to their profile page but I also like it when I hear why people may back something to discover something I may not otherwise have come across.
Anja "Cha!" Allen 2015-02-13T18:06:35-05:00
@GCoD...and no one is forcing anyone to press that backer button...it's our choice or is it not?
Melissa "The Creeper" Nicole 2015-02-13T18:07:38-05:00
I think it's really shady that the cat simulator put the words "exploding" and "kittens" in their header so it would show up when searched dor
I might just bail out early today. We have Monday off as a holiday and at least half of the office staff either took today off, are "working from home" or have quietly left work early.
Also my boss is 40 miles away at the corporate office and I can forward my offline line to my cell phone :-)
Jeff "Great Cane of Doom"™ Saxton 2015-02-13T18:10:42-05:00

I'm just curious to see if that Catlateral Damage KS project ever pays off. FPC carnage.
Anja "Cha!" Allen 2015-02-13T18:16:31-05:00
@GCoD @Creeper..yup I get and I think it's good to be vigilant about spam scam sham etc and alert others about it. It can be frustrating and annoying and it's good to address it. And yes, it's different coming from someone who just randomly pops in and out or if it s from someone who's been around. I'd still like to at times be able to talk about what others back and why :)
Az4r0th 2015-02-13T18:19:32-05:00
I tried Catlateral Damage before this kickstarter began. Was pretty fun
Jeff "Great Cane of Doom"™ Saxton 2015-02-13T18:19:53-05:00
Part of it is they act like we have never heard of these games -- I am guessing if you are on KS to begin with, you already search the database for cool stuff to back.
Catzalcoatal 2015-02-13T18:20:55-05:00
Yup, plenty of cool stuff to back. But this site needs more cowbell.
Anja "Cha!" Allen 2015-02-13T18:21:34-05:00
That's one really expensive t-shirt! $80 (even in Canadian $). It must be special cotton balls used cauz there's no word on why the limited game would be so special & expensive.
Az4r0th 2015-02-13T18:21:42-05:00
Cow bell cat?
Catzalcoatal 2015-02-13T18:22:49-05:00

Yay! KittenCorps!
Jeff "Great Cane of Doom"™ Saxton 2015-02-13T18:24:16-05:00
AKO Dice, just saying. They just look cool.

Do I contradict myself...yes, yes and no, I do ;)
Anja "Cha!" Allen 2015-02-13T18:26:29-05:00

Hmmm I like both finishes, maybe a tiny preference for the black
Catzalcoatal 2015-02-13T18:31:07-05:00
They're definitely not betting compliant.
Jeff "Great Cane of Doom"™ Saxton 2015-02-13T18:31:32-05:00
My doubt is the anodizing will rapidly wear off if you use them ... so I'm going with "naked" metal; and I can always add some lacquer into the grooves to add color.
Melissa "The Creeper" Nicole 2015-02-13T18:31:34-05:00
I'm not a huge gamer... Kitchen utensils are my dice... If that makes any.... Anyway--the fancy butter knife is my dice
Catzalcoatal 2015-02-13T18:31:47-05:00
I wonder if they did weighting tests to make sure balance is there. (Not that I'd ever notice.)
Anja "Cha!" Allen 2015-02-13T18:31:55-05:00
I wonder if they could pull this off with a not square, 10+ sided one
Jeff "Great Cane of Doom"™ Saxton 2015-02-13T18:32:19-05:00
I've been trying to ascertain his math, and determine how imbalanced they are ... it is a percentage, but until I get them ...eh, they're cool looking.
Melissa "The Creeper" Nicole 2015-02-13T18:32:33-05:00
@LZ- it was a very exciting notification to receive.
Jeff "Great Cane of Doom"™ Saxton 2015-02-13T18:33:11-05:00
He has an elaborate math image that shows how the imbalance is set ... but it's beyond me between the math and the language translation he uses.

Jeff "Great Cane of Doom"™ Saxton 2015-02-13T18:34:29-05:00
The fudge dice are three sided, in short. zero, one, two ... repeated. I can't see a use, but then, I don't do RPG's.

Kevin "Lord Zombitten" Buckner 2015-02-13T18:44:33-05:00
Oh, if I had blank dice and the appropriate software and a laser cutter, I would make some amazing dice!
Kevin "Lord Zombitten" Buckner 2015-02-13T18:44:53-05:00
I saw a good idea on Facebook for custom dice for each weapon in Zombicide.
Catzalcoatal 2015-02-13T18:45:10-05:00
Dice with little happy faces or sad faces. Like the emotes used in Cowboy Bebop?
Jeff "Great Cane of Doom"™ Saxton 2015-02-13T18:45:43-05:00
That would be easy enough to do, LZ ... assuming one had access to clean artwork of the weapons.
Melissa "The Creeper" Nicole 2015-02-13T18:45:49-05:00
2 ears per person...100 people = 200 cats ears.

Lauren Moinet Wiersema 2015-02-13T18:46:26-05:00
yeah
Jeff "Great Cane of Doom"™ Saxton 2015-02-13T18:46:35-05:00
Of course, the Ogre specific dice are less of a project now that SJG did their CRT app, and I got a cheapy throw-away smart phone to run it.
Lauren Moinet Wiersema 2015-02-13T18:46:57-05:00
100 pairs of cat ears
Jeff "Great Cane of Doom"™ Saxton 2015-02-13T18:47:35-05:00

Jeff "Great Cane of Doom"™ Saxton 2015-02-13T18:50:51-05:00
About $50, Catzal ... though I got a set from San Francisco and it was $32 for FedEx.
Jeff "Great Cane of Doom"™ Saxton 2015-02-13T18:51:11-05:00
I really overbought on that one, but Ogre / GEV has been my game since 1977.

What's scary about Ogre is parts of its mythos are slowly coming true in our world, and that game is set in 2085 ...

Now that Elan Lee is following us on Twitter, perhaps now would be a time to mention kittencon on there and see if he helps spread the word, gets it organized, etc.

I know Neil Young was promoting the Pono, if not actively a part of the team -- but his involvement with Lionel Trains is still a sore spot for many collectors there.
Also, like that dumb "Cat Simulator", some of the games just look like shit on a stick.
And we can also just be people and address any posting of 'other stuff' case by case or just ignore it. There's a difference between a post and multiple spam posts.

@GCoD...and no one is forcing anyone to press that backer button...it's our choice or is it not?

True, Cha - but that cat simulator guy was in here a half dozen times early on until we shooed him away.
Cat Simulator was attempted several months back -- I have the distinct sense they only rebooted now to ride this KS's coat-tails.
I might just bail out early today. We have Monday off as a holiday and at least half of the office staff either took today off, are "working from home" or have quietly left work early.
