@Blondie I spent a lot of time reading yesterday. From what I can tell "every deck comes with a box". And single deck buyers are paying more for 2 decks than the NSFW people are. So I'm pretty sure at the $20 level you get 1 nifty box with each deck. I could be wrong.
Melissa "The Creeper" Nicole 2015-02-18T02:15:46-05:00
@DDD- I think... i think the original NSFW version wasn't Physically half the size, just, number of cards, wise. I think the smaller image was to show that it wasn't a full deck of cards.
By the way, if he sleeves the cards he'll have space to fit them.
Melissa "The Creeper" Nicole 2015-02-18T02:16:15-05:00
@DDD- *flannel sleeves.
"Diamond Dan" Drake 2015-02-18T02:17:20-05:00
@tasha - Yeah, that seems to be correct. It might not seem like it, but there are probably MANY backers with children that aren't interested in getting the NSFW deck...
Keith "Virrgo" Goken 2015-02-18T02:17:30-05:00
How's the KittenCorps tonight?
Marissa "Blondie" Brice 2015-02-18T02:18:32-05:00
@Virrgo - We are doing good and making up drinking games! How are you doing?
I have no interest in the NSFW cards. Why would I want to pay for cards I don't want? They probably come wrapped in plastic so I can't give them away without feeling/looking cheap. Not all of us want the NSFW cards for a variety of reasons: kids, religion, prudes (me), etc,
"Diamond Dan" Drake 2015-02-18T02:18:52-05:00
True. Though, we can still push for a special "snack sleeve" for anyone who has purchased only one deck and doesn't know what to do with the other half, correct?
Keith "Virrgo" Goken 2015-02-18T02:19:36-05:00
Enjoying the Desert and waiting for my 3 decks and to see if we hit 200,000 backers. :)
"The Ex-President" a.k.a "TEP" 2015-02-18T02:20:00-05:00
@Explaitten, you can just back at $20 and get the normal decks, yes?
181k backers - another milestone - drink Blondie drink LOL
Geist de la Muerte Gatito 2015-02-18T02:20:18-05:00
Moo! It's 2 am and all is well
Keith "Virrgo" Goken 2015-02-18T02:20:29-05:00
And see if I make the 1000 by the end, guessing not Lol
"The Ex-President" a.k.a "TEP" 2015-02-18T02:20:40-05:00
of course, in the last 4 hours since i was here i might have missed a lot of things.
Marissa "Blondie" Brice 2015-02-18T02:20:44-05:00
While I respect that not EVERYONE wants the NSFW deck, only 7% of backers aren't interested in it, a whopping 93% WANT THAT DECK, so, I don't see the sense in changing the boxing for so few people, just my two cents
Andre "Silver Ninjatten" Bernier 2015-02-18T02:21:16-05:00
@TEP yes at $20 you get 1 kid friendly/safe for work version with the nifty 2 card holding box
Geist de la Muerte Gatito 2015-02-18T02:22:33-05:00
Everyone should agree with blondes
"Diamond Dan" Drake 2015-02-18T02:22:34-05:00
@tasha - seriously though, because I think we're trying to gather info from at least a core set that we have a chance to chat with... What would be your preference? NO nsfw cards and two regular decks to fill the box?
"The Ex-President" a.k.a "TEP" 2015-02-18T02:22:42-05:00
ah, i think i know what i missed now.... oh well. i'll leave you all to it.
@Blondie I wasn't going along with let's change the box I was just explaining why some of us aren't do the $35 level even if we can afford it and why we wish they'd create a 2 deck family friendly $35 level
"Diamond Dan" Drake 2015-02-18T02:24:32-05:00
I'd assume they'll allow for a 2 regular deck box, as long as you've paid the extra twenty.
I don't have any idea how the production phase of any of this works, but it might still be worth passing along pre-survey phase.
Marissa "Blondie" Brice 2015-02-18T02:26:43-05:00
I'm honestly fairly sure each deck WILL have it's own cardboard/paper box inside the epic new kewl box, and with a campaign that has more backers than some european countries 7% is definitely the minority, more than 10x that amount want the NSFW deck, that's PRETTY statistically significant
"The Ex-President" a.k.a "TEP" 2015-02-18T02:26:45-05:00
@Tasha, let's fire that one off to mr Lee. It should be possible to make an attempt to alter the options as production will not have started until the campaing funding is done.
"Diamond Dan" Drake 2015-02-18T02:26:58-05:00
To pay the same amount but opt out of the NSFW deck, to get two regular decks in a box they are shipping anyway?
"The Ex-President" a.k.a "TEP" 2015-02-18T02:27:38-05:00
Sending the request to Mr Lee.
Marissa "Blondie" Brice 2015-02-18T02:28:03-05:00
@Ninjatten and Geist - Thank you! I'll be here drinking all night! XD
I'm all for a family friendly 2 pack box, I just doubt in the final 48 hours they will make that a NEW thing, but maybe!
@DDD if I pay $40 I believe I get two of the 2 deck boxes - one for each of the decks I order. Now for me that's a bonus because I see other ways to use the 2nd box. But not everyone is as willing to think outside the box or to have games in a box labeled as something else.
Andre "Silver Ninjatten" Bernier 2015-02-18T02:29:33-05:00
@Blondie Someone draw a thing that is a thing that cant be drawn
reluctantfire 2015-02-18T02:29:38-05:00
"Each deck should have its own box too. Retail plans, you know." -Tsveta
YES yes! I'm not saying make some super special one-deck box just for me, but since the post-KS plan involves only selling the base deck, I'd rather just have whatever even-if-it's-boring packaging those decks are going to come with :)
"Diamond Dan" Drake 2015-02-18T02:30:11-05:00
Right, that's when you have to start DEMANDING the "snack sleeve" :P
Andre "Silver Ninjatten" Bernier 2015-02-18T02:30:33-05:00
I imagine they will do this either way and we are discussing it for no reason.
Ayelet Lanel 2015-02-18T02:30:36-05:00
Please draw a huge, fat black panther sitting on a tiny top shelf (that's my fat cat's secret persona), shivering from fear of a little baby on the floor... Please!!
Andre "Silver Ninjatten" Bernier 2015-02-18T02:31:36-05:00
draw someone saying they can't draw any more because the event has finished.
draw yourself and many kittens swimming in a pool filled with all the millions of dollars you just made off this :p
Marissa "Blondie" Brice 2015-02-18T02:36:19-05:00
@Ninjatten - Thanks for that, I now have a reason to open another drink! :D
@reluctantfire - Wait, so, you would rather have the retail version of the deck without the spiffy big box we unlocked, the magnetic hinge, or the super secret kickstarter exclusive surprise? …then maybe don't back this campaign and wait for the retail version? lol, sorry if that's harsh, but you are pretty much saying you are totally uninterested/going to throw away all the stretch goals that the community worked hard for so why not just…not do that?
Lisa 2015-02-18T02:36:52-05:00
Eeeeeeee just saw that the Kitten corps have a page! A-MAZ-ING! loving your organisational skills :)
"The Ex-President" a.k.a "TEP" 2015-02-18T02:37:00-05:00
@Tasha, @KittenCorps and everyone else here.
I have sent the following to Mr Lee and await his response. In the past he has responded positively to our mails and requests (even though they got a bit swamped in the first 2 weeks). so lets hold thumbs and paws that they will accommodate everyone.

Dear Mr Lee,
A thread has arisen in the comment with the following in mind:
Tasha "Explaitten" (Turner) Lennhoff
@Blondie I wasn't going along with let's change the box I was just explaining why some of us aren't do the $35 level even if we can afford it and why we wish they'd create a 2 deck family friendly $35 level
The request breaks down to the following:
Seeing as the NSFW deck is now a full 56 cards, would it be possible to create a $35 tier with two normal decks of 56 cards that are kid friendly, instead of the NSFW deck?
If not, backers would have to pay $20 for a normal deck, in a box that can take two; and to get two decks for $40 would mean that they would sit with an extra box.
I believe that production has not started yet as the campaign has not yet been completed. So please, on behalf of the backers and those are the 'Corps, have a chat with Mr Small and The Oatmeal to see if this is possible.
It would be a great thing to happen. :)
Thank you.
=====
Marissa "Blondie" Brice 2015-02-18T02:37:16-05:00
Oh man Between Ayelet, Will, and Ninjatten I'm about to have some fuuun
I've seen a number of campaigns make changes at the last minute - not ones this size but then there haven't been many this size LOL. Depending on how they plan to do surveys the change may be easy (if they are using Backerkit/similar) or hard (Kickstarter)
One thing I enjoy about Kickstarter is how much I've learned about the entire process from start to getting the product in someone's hand. The journey. It's one of the reasons I prefer Kickstarter to "just shopping". Not only is it new and possibly unique but I know how it got from someone's head into my hands. Eek Rochens...
Paul Ross 2015-02-18T02:39:04-05:00
Draw me arriving late to this party and everyone's passed out in their own vomit except this one girl who keeps saying "it's finished it's finished!"
@Blondie maybe you should check the rules on when to stop?
"Diamond Dan" Drake 2015-02-18T02:42:09-05:00
@blondie - You could still be any of the people from his story! :)
Paul Ross 2015-02-18T02:42:35-05:00
Haha.
KGrafton86 2015-02-18T02:44:56-05:00
You guys are the bee's knees. I'm just sad I missed the comment drawings on that one.
Marissa "Blondie" Brice 2015-02-18T02:45:33-05:00
@Explaitten - The drinking game page doesn't explicitly state when to stop so I can only assume the answer is "when you pass out", lol, also, as I made up my own rules to the game and am only following a single one I'm unsure if said rules apply
@DDD - I am barely tipsy honestly the late comers are slowing down :( but if I go to the comments on update #13 those are still rolling in strong XD so I don't know where to look/count
"Diamond Dan" Drake 2015-02-18T02:45:43-05:00
Hmmm. Well, drinking game or not, this still seems to be the closing of the window...
Yeah I'm feeling the strong urge to pledge for another pair of decks, I don't know if that's the drinks, or the final 48 hours, or both…probably both...
"Diamond Dan" Drake 2015-02-18T02:48:10-05:00
the "update" commenters seem to have their own... ways.
The rules explicitly say to stop when you forget the rules. You did. Now stop!
Marissa "Blondie" Brice 2015-02-18T02:48:54-05:00
@DDD - Yeah, did they even look in that update comments for ideas to draw? Or only here in the main comments? I assumed it was only the main comments, and if so, that's a hilarious waste of 1.4k comments on update #13 lol
@Blondie the rules do have when to stop.
#1. Backer count ends in 00
#6. #ExplodingKittens breaks another Kickstarter record
There are Twitter ones also but I'm not sure they are much good at this hour. Are you looking at the rules in Kitten Corps?
Oh gosh I totally forgot about those commenters LOL
Marissa "Blondie" Brice 2015-02-18T02:50:16-05:00
@Tvesta - Liar! It does NOT say that! I just double checked, also, once again, I made up my own rules, and I can't forget them considering I've only made one XD
Read, the ability and willingness to read something all the way through is a critical skill. One too many people lack. *ex-tech writer grumbles*
Marissa "Blondie" Brice 2015-02-18T02:52:48-05:00
@Explaitten - Actually the rules say to "Finish your drink" when those things happen, meaning, drink the ENTIRE drink, not just a sip, gulp the WHOLE thing down, and then open another, lol, it doesn't say to stop the game, haha XD
Going to work now. Take her bottle before she finishes eating it.
Marissa "Blondie" Brice 2015-02-18T02:57:28-05:00
@Tvesta - Sorry, you are indeed right, as is @Creeper, that was indeed when they said to end, I am wrong, as was only reading from their rules page, however I will NOT CONCEDE that "Finish Your Drink" = "Finish the Game" that's not how a drinking game works...
Keith "Virrgo" Goken 2015-02-18T02:58:05-05:00
Is there a smoking version of this game? I asking for a "friend" ;)
@Virrgo - I live in a 420 friendly state so the smoking rules are just "smoke when you remember to" lol, good luck with that one, I've had a bowl packed for hours now I've forgotten to take until you just said that XD
@Blondie i think they forgot to include the stop drinking part in the official drinking page rules. I don't play drinking games so I assumed (yeah, yeah I know) finish drink must mean stop because they had no stop... Not that I payed much attention to the rules today...
Melissa "The Creeper" Nicole 2015-02-18T02:59:54-05:00
G'night kids. Place nice with the others. Just cause we're on here all the time, doesn't mean everyone else knows everything about everything.
"Diamond Dan" Drake 2015-02-18T03:00:06-05:00
Ok, at least those rules are still the same.
Marissa "Blondie" Brice 2015-02-18T03:00:10-05:00
Goodnight @Creeper and have a nice day at work @Tvesta!
@Blondie I spent a lot of time reading yesterday. From what I can tell "every deck comes with a box". And single deck buyers are paying more for 2 decks than the NSFW people are. So I'm pretty sure at the $20 level you get 1 nifty box with each deck. I could be wrong.
@DDD- I think... i think the original NSFW version wasn't Physically half the size, just, number of cards, wise. I think the smaller image was to show that it wasn't a full deck of cards.
By the way, if he sleeves the cards he'll have space to fit them.
@DDD- *flannel sleeves.
@tasha - Yeah, that seems to be correct. It might not seem like it, but there are probably MANY backers with children that aren't interested in getting the NSFW deck...
How's the KittenCorps tonight?
@Virrgo - We are doing good and making up drinking games! How are you doing?

7% are not actually that few.
Each deck should have its own box too. Retail plans, you know.
Maybe that's the super secret special suprise...
@Blondie I wasn't going along with let's change the box I was just explaining why some of us aren't do the $35 level even if we can afford it and why we wish they'd create a 2 deck family friendly $35 level
I'd assume they'll allow for a 2 regular deck box, as long as you've paid the extra twenty.
@TEP - did I answer that in my last comment ;)
I don't have any idea how the production phase of any of this works, but it might still be worth passing along pre-survey phase.

@silver - Ah, the voice of reason, yet again. :)
It should be fairly easy to add a new reward for 2 family friendly decks & should make things easier and cheaper on the fullfilment and shipping side.
Thanks @TEP for sending off email.

Here are The Rules
Tipsy kitty cuddles,
The Exploding Kittens Team
END WHEN YOU FORGET THE RULES. Second line.
Ah, there it is! Thanks Creeper I knew it was there.
@Blondie in #Update13 it says stop playing when you forget the rules
Yeah I don't think they meant for us to drink the way we are ;)
@Creeper - Okay, that's fair, but the OFFICIAL RULES PAGE DOESN'T INCLUDE THAT, which is KINDA an oversight IMO…lol
http://www.explodingkittens.com/drinking_game
And I'm not crazy, "finish a drink" doesn't mean finish the game, right? I went to college…I know how to play drinking games...
@Idle - *salutes*
So, an apology is in order :P
No, it meant you chugged it and opened a new one.
Going to work now. Take her bottle before she finishes eating it.
@Tvesta - Sorry, you are indeed right, as is @Creeper, that was indeed when they said to end, I am wrong, as was only reading from their rules page, however I will NOT CONCEDE that "Finish Your Drink" = "Finish the Game" that's not how a drinking game works...
Is there a smoking version of this game? I asking for a "friend" ;)
How does one "win" a drinking game?
Yes, it's guzzle your drink. I agree there.
@blondie- not arguing with you on that one. scroll down. I'm out, kittens.
@Creeper - THANK YOU, okay, see?? @Explaitten I'm not crazy
Last man standing
@DDD -Not vomiting/passing out before others.
Who's the judge?
@Virrgo - I live in a 420 friendly state so the smoking rules are just "smoke when you remember to" lol, good luck with that one, I've had a bowl packed for hours now I've forgotten to take until you just said that XD
@Blondie i think they forgot to include the stop drinking part in the official drinking page rules. I don't play drinking games so I assumed (yeah, yeah I know) finish drink must mean stop because they had no stop... Not that I payed much attention to the rules today...

Tsveta. Eh, whatever. Thanks!
Who's the boss?
Mine is also, I need to forget more often though. Gets pricey ;) Only the good stuff
