@Creeper That's so cool! Free pizza is good pizza, for sure!
Also, I'm excited that EK is listed on my boardgamegeek.com! I just know my pals are gonna love it!
@Creeper: Well, you are part of the Corp, and one requirement was to be slightly crazy, wasn't it? Or was that just for my application?...am I seeing things again when there is nothing?
Mike Kabala 2015-02-18T14:24:46-05:00
I have updated the New Member instructions to reduce the confusion about minions being unique. Some people had been confused about this.
How to Join KittenCorps (for new members)

Your Real Name (First name and Last initial is OK)
Your Alias (What you want to be called in the KittenCorps, should be human)
Your Alliance (Heroes, Villains, or Neutral)
Your Hybrid Minions* (Name, hybrid of which two separate species, special abilities)
(optional) A short bio to include on the website.
* Please note that your Minions should be a hybrid of two separate species, one of which is either Kittens or Puppies.
- Also note that puppies are always neutral and can never be heroes or villains.
- Every minion should have at least one special ability, but may have more.

Aren't the project numbers chronological?
Katie Pants Cheery Pie 2015-02-18T14:24:55-05:00
Is he still drawing today?
Peter 'General Calculus' W. 2015-02-18T14:25:02-05:00
@Tchotchke, that someone would have been me
Andre "Silver Ninjatten" Bernier 2015-02-18T14:25:09-05:00
@PoT: That's why I did it..... I wouldn't want that to happen to me, I wasn't letting it happen to her.
Bob "Powers of Tesla" Lindley 2015-02-18T14:25:20-05:00
Well done Potatten!
HUZZAH!
Nati Natalie 2015-02-18T14:25:26-05:00
Where are the pics he's drawing from the kickstarter comments?
Eric 'Tchotchke' Aschner 2015-02-18T14:25:30-05:00
@KPCP
Only Jibbers knows.
Peter 'General Calculus' W. 2015-02-18T14:26:36-05:00
@Silver this number does not help at all, as it is a number for all comments on all projects.
Marissa "Blondie" Brice 2015-02-18T14:26:44-05:00
I have a slight feeling Matthew is only going to pop in and out of the comments randomly a few times today for more doodles, so the comments section might not be AS insane as yesterday, but will maintain a super random wild request every few minutes or so still as a result lol
Eric 'Tchotchke' Aschner 2015-02-18T14:26:49-05:00
I've always wondered what a platypus and armadillo baby would look like.
@Blondie the freaker sock campaign was something else.
Rachel Baumann 2015-02-18T14:28:02-05:00
Mr. Inman, if you're drawing again, I would like a picture of a two year old holding a black cat in a half-nelson, please. That's what I used to do with our cart, and he was remarkably patient about it.
He really does, he's always seem like such an awesome person too!
Ben Carpenter 2015-02-18T14:28:11-05:00
Just wondering, you may not know what I'm talking about but just wondering if that song in the background of that video is to the tune of that Adult Swim video "Too Many Cooks." To me it sounds pretty similar to it.
Geist de la Muerte Gatito 2015-02-18T14:28:22-05:00
lol you go Geist! I'd help but I'm no good at the whole art thing....
Katie Pants Cheery Pie 2015-02-18T14:29:10-05:00
If you are still drawing... draw a 'CATastrophe' :)
EK, Bitches!
Melissa "The Creeper" Nicole 2015-02-18T14:29:35-05:00

David Rice 2015-02-18T14:29:50-05:00
hey matt...these drawings are great. here's my old kitteh in my old r2 unit...you know...if you see this or have time or whatever...

Would gekocats qualify as exploding kittens if they climb up the walls and curl into light fixtures on the ceiling, shorting them out and causing great balls of house fires?
Amber Yelvington 2015-02-18T14:31:00-05:00
Mr. Inman I would love to see some Bearcats playing checkers.
Josh Coppinger 2015-02-18T14:31:13-05:00
If you could make something of Jibbers! or Some sea life thiing that would be aweesssoooome! also! Have a great project! You guys are awesome!
He will be in and out as wantonly as a dog or cat may... it might get cold in here since the door will end up open while we wait for him to decide..... #badpun
Katy 2015-02-18T14:31:49-05:00
Drawing idea (probably already been suggested): the faces of the printing company people when you tell them just how many decks you need made... O_O
Ian Madison 2015-02-18T14:32:12-05:00
I would be forever grateful if you drew a Swiftosaurus Rex (Taylor Swift as a giant dinosaur with short arms)
Please and thank you
Mr. PACG 2015-02-18T14:32:15-05:00
Matthew - It would be super ridiculous cool and WICKED APPRECIATED if you'd draw my wife and I playing pinball. = We met 25 years ago in a punk/goth club in Boston playing pinball. She'd freak out of here damn shoes if you did a drawing of a "punk" and a "goth" playing pinball (alternate: use mooses instead of humans).
LadyZ of the house Vampitten 2015-02-18T14:33:26-05:00
Hey Matt! If you're hanging around for a bit, here's the creepiest cat photo you'll ever see! Pretty please draw if you have time and aren't too worried about sleeping at night: https://pbs.twimg.com/media/B-FNBMDIgAAor1c.jpg:large
Bob "Powers of Tesla" Lindley 2015-02-18T14:33:27-05:00
Well dammit. Now that he popped back in I feel like we shouldn't tell people not to leave requests.
Jeff "Great Cane of Doom"™ Saxton 2015-02-18T14:34:06-05:00
Asking Mr. Inman nicely helps, as does a simple drawing request. Asking him to draw the entire freaking Sistine Chapel is a bit of a stretch.
LadyZ of the house Vampitten 2015-02-18T14:34:31-05:00
Hi PoT! I feel like he wants to pop in here and there with surprise drawings. Apparently I am not above begging. Heheh Did you see my creepy cat?!
Bob "Powers of Tesla" Lindley 2015-02-18T14:35:12-05:00
@LadyZ Yep.
Melissa "The Creeper" Nicole 2015-02-18T14:35:21-05:00
@LadyZ -Your cat is quite creepy indeed.
Edward J. Cunningham 2015-02-18T14:35:33-05:00
@Matt Inman
Thanks for all the drawings you made---even if one of them wasn't mine. (I'll probably try that myself later.) Hope the Kirkland Signature Vodka was good!
LadyZ of the house Vampitten 2015-02-18T14:36:09-05:00
She's actually gorgeous and loveable. But that picture gives me shivers.
Geist de la Muerte Gatito 2015-02-18T14:36:21-05:00

LadyZ of the house Vampitten 2015-02-18T14:37:19-05:00
Am I the only one who's kind of sad that there are only 30 hours left to this campaign? It's been quite a ride!
Eric 'Tchotchke' Aschner 2015-02-18T14:37:37-05:00
#GCoD
Yes, I would like to request "the entire freaking Sistine Chapel with all painted people replaced by cats."
Bob "Powers of Tesla" Lindley 2015-02-18T14:38:38-05:00
I am torn. I would like to make a request, but frankly I feel like I've already asked for enough from him by requesting the Logo AND permission to reproduce it.
Ehh.. it is better to give than to receive. I hope he is able to fill more of your requests.
Geist de la Muerte Gatito 2015-02-18T14:38:39-05:00
No, you are not the only one Vampitten. I will miss the crazyness. I needed it so much in my life right now.
Mr. PACG 2015-02-18T14:39:54-05:00
Very excited for campaign to end and for July to hurry up and get here
Bob "Powers of Tesla" Lindley 2015-02-18T14:40:09-05:00
Frankly I'll glad to be able to focus on other things.
Jeff "Great Cane of Doom"™ Saxton 2015-02-18T14:42:58-05:00
After the campaign ends, and the flurry of survey related questions ends, we can still use this room to post and archive the Corps. Then when the game starts to ship, we'll be here to answer the inevitable questions again -- and then later, maybe even provide rules clarifications for folks.
Stephen Baxter 2015-02-18T14:43:48-05:00

My cat brings me tremendous joy as do your drawings. Please memorialize Thumper. I offer three options to showcase his greatness (and your own). #1 - Him staring at a gargantuan lava lamp while wasted on the nip - http://imgur.com/68oMj9K. He and I after the hospital sliced me open to repair the damage he did to me at bath time - http://imgur.com/XgAbXEZ. Thumper looking absolutely terrifying - http://imgur.com/u2MgglT.

Marissa "Blondie" Brice 2015-02-18T14:45:52-05:00
I know I am going to be sad when the campaign is over, after unlocking all those backer achievements and chatting so much here it feels like the finishing a much loved game, even though I haven't even gotten the game yet XD
Pictures Matthew of The Oatmeal has drawn can be found in his comments https://www.kickstarter.com/profile/1062472963/comments He may drop by again but he is not hanging out today so don't be disappointed if he doesn't do anymore pictures. Pro tip: if your suggestion contains the words rainbow, bacon, ninja, or zombie, I'm not going to draw it. (From Matthew's comments)
Etiquette from Tasha: Asking rather than demanding is good etiquette. This is supposed to be fun & for personal request. Asking for business uses is inappropriate. Matthew is doing a favor. He is a professional illustrator. Please use common sense.
Marissa "Blondie" Brice 2015-02-18T14:46:57-05:00
Take that random "the" out before finishing and I swear that last comment makes sense, breakfast will aid my brain I think I am going to get some soon...
Geist de la Muerte Gatito 2015-02-18T14:47:50-05:00
See GCoD, when I suggested that, no one said anything. The backers at Might No. 9 still use their comments section.

I'm all for keeping up the comments here but I know they always die down once a campaign ends, more like a few comments a day vs. a minute so it's a little lonelier feeling if you have lots of spare time (as I'm guessing not only I do...) so I can only hope this comments section stays more active than other ones! To be fair it certainly has more momentum haha

@Blondie: I'm sure that the Corp will keep going here, especially if we back another campaign, comment, and get asked about the nickname in our profiles.
Ok nevermind I did it.
there is a tag for the comments section. You can use the direct url to scrape the data.
@Tchotchke: Hmm...not sure if I should say great minds think alike...or not for that one...though you are correct...
Someone was somehow downloading all of our comments in a json, so he could search it.
She hath been notified.
@Tchotchke and @GreatMountain - I'm giving you the stink eye.
THe woman was a little hesitant on the phone "Umm... so.. do we have to do anything or... what is this for?!?"
@PoT - Hopefully Valerie is following @explodingkittens since they posted the image on Twitter
@Creeper That's so cool! Free pizza is good pizza, for sure!
Also, I'm excited that EK is listed on my boardgamegeek.com! I just know my pals are gonna love it!
... I will not make a promise to notify so easily next time...
@Silver, scraping the data from the comment section is the easy part... getting a list of all KS projects is the hard part.
Being stuck under your sleeping pet when you have stuff to do but don't want to wake them
Let's see a game of Tic-Cat-Toe
I FOUND VALERIE WILLIS (the correct one) and let her know.
I can only imagine the level of suck that would be to have your request fulfilled and never learn of it.
@Creeper: Well, you are part of the Corp, and one requirement was to be slightly crazy, wasn't it? Or was that just for my application?...am I seeing things again when there is nothing?
I have updated the New Member instructions to reduce the confusion about minions being unique. Some people had been confused about this.

@PoT, maybe you're right. It'll just feel a little... empty.. for a while.
We could always stay in this chat portion too.
