We should hit at least 7.75m by the end. It does seem to have slowed down a bit.
Laura Moyer 2015-02-19T09:41:00-05:00
If the average number of backers per day holds, we can expect roughly another 3,000 backers at most, so don't think we'll get to that 200,000 backer record unless we have a ton of last minute holdouts influx in the next 11 hours.
Adam Lewis - Erudite Esoterist 2015-02-19T09:41:17-05:00
So, targets have to be $8m and 200k backers. We're moving towards those, but time is getting away from us...
We might get a few more people. I'll wager for 198k backers is what we hit.
Rajiv Vaid Basaiawmoit 2015-02-19T09:42:54-05:00
I would really like to do a study about the different categories of people who bought this game and see if it is all over the place or is the game attracting a certain "type" of clientele ;) Hope The Oatmeal can help me gather this data :p
Just how it goes GM, the Oats giveth and the Oats decide not to giveth. Also, when did I miss the Wolfette update? I swear not being on late gives me a handicap with introductions......
Kevin "Lord Zombitten" Buckner 2015-02-19T09:48:20-05:00
Me too Potatten I miss a whole lot because of my friends wanting to play games together most nights. Though tonight is drinks...so might not be here for the final few hours of it.
Bob "Powers of Tesla" Lindley 2015-02-19T09:49:37-05:00
Howdy everybody. Looks like everyone is making an effort to check in this morning.
Diannika - Da Wolfette 2015-02-19T09:49:42-05:00
late last night i was introduced. before i got my application in lol
Geist de la Muerte Gatito 2015-02-19T09:49:57-05:00
Good Morning Vietnam! Whoops. Wrong movie.
Thewarstore.com 2015-02-19T09:50:05-05:00
wanna bet the oatmeal collaborates on more games in the near future.....
Eric 'Tchotchke' Aschner 2015-02-19T09:50:06-05:00
@PoT: Checking in on the train, really packed, and one handed. But still chchecking in.
Bob "Powers of Tesla" Lindley 2015-02-19T09:51:19-05:00
@Tchitchke, not me. I have already put more than $200 in the pot. I'm done.
Kevin "Lord Zombitten" Buckner 2015-02-19T09:51:28-05:00
I'd be worried if people weren't checking in on the last day
Geist de la Muerte Gatito 2015-02-19T09:52:20-05:00
@Tchotchke: I'm seriously giving some thought to getting two sets. My bank account will hate me for it and I'll probably have to ear ramen noodles for the next week or so but, heck. This has been so much fun. And I like noodles anyway.
I just got thanked by Valerie Willis ~<3 Huzzah! It made my day.....
Kevin "Lord Zombitten" Buckner 2015-02-19T09:55:30-05:00
Really early on, too. I'm backer #242
Thewarstore.com 2015-02-19T09:55:51-05:00
ROFL, that is great Bob.
Jeff "Great Cane of Doom"™ Saxton 2015-02-19T09:55:56-05:00
Good morning Everyone of the Corps. Man, I fully expected to see us over 200K when I signed in ...
Chris "The Historian" Loth 2015-02-19T09:55:56-05:00
@Tchotchke, @LZ, morning guys. After sleeping for pretty much 24 hours I'm feeling markedly better and ready to enjoy the final day of the EK history-making kickstarter (at least as much as I can with having to do work).
@Da Wolfette, A special welcome to one of our newest members!
Bob "Powers of Tesla" Lindley 2015-02-19T09:56:07-05:00
@Potatten. Aww... That's nice she thanked you.
Geist de la Muerte Gatito 2015-02-19T09:56:22-05:00
I might have to drop one of the other KS I'm backing. They are not nearly as much fun as this place was anyway. Besides, I want the Kitten Corps beer glass when this is over.
I'm #2638ish and I WAS one of the first to drop in the bucket.... we blew up so fast.... I SAW there being all the backer levels empty, before I finished my transactions anyway.
Diannika - Da Wolfette 2015-02-19T09:56:59-05:00
you tell her you need 2 more. 1 set for up to 4 person play (4person reg deck and 4 person NSFW) and the other two for up-to-8 person decks. that way you dont have to seperate the decks after every large game
Diannika - Da Wolfette 2015-02-19T09:57:15-05:00
thats how i did it:)
Geist de la Muerte Gatito 2015-02-19T09:57:39-05:00
I wonder who backer number 1 was
Jeff "Great Cane of Doom"™ Saxton 2015-02-19T09:57:45-05:00
Last night Josh was saying he might drop his $100 level collectors set. Anyone know if he did? It was sure to be immediately snapped up again.
Bob "Powers of Tesla" Lindley 2015-02-19T09:58:01-05:00
Let's go Kitten Corps!
Rah, rah, rhee. Kick 'em in the knee!
Rah, rah, rass. Kick 'em in the other knee!
Geist de la Muerte Gatito 2015-02-19T09:58:36-05:00
Rah, rah, rass. Knock 'em to the grass
Rah rah rum, kick em' in the bum!
Kevin "Lord Zombitten" Buckner 2015-02-19T09:59:34-05:00
I would consider getting the collector level now if it came available. I kinda wish I had when I first backed, since it was very much available at that time
Geist de la Muerte Gatito 2015-02-19T09:59:54-05:00
Rah, rah, what? Kick 'em in the butt
Rah, rah, whoa, you a silly hoe
I would still consider it.... but I'm a cheap bastard and I'm already [springing] to make sure I get the NSFW deck. I want all of the material yes, but I couldn't justify more money just for three cards.
Diannika - Da Wolfette 2015-02-19T10:01:07-05:00
what they should do is offer a few more now at the end. another 50 or 100
Kevin "Lord Zombitten" Buckner 2015-02-19T10:01:26-05:00
Rah rah wrotch! Kick'em in the crotch!
Rah rah rootch! Let's go drink some hootch!
Geist de la Muerte Gatito 2015-02-19T10:01:56-05:00
LOL@LZ
Kevin "Lord Zombitten" Buckner 2015-02-19T10:02:32-05:00
Oh, I wouldn't consider the $500 level. I wish I had that kind of money
Diannika - Da Wolfette 2015-02-19T10:02:37-05:00
collectors isnt the one with exclusive cards...thats legends
THE COLLECTOR'S DECK
Two copies of both decks from the previous reward but one of each will be signed by the creators of the game. (So you don't have to ruin the fancy signed decks with your filthy game playing hands.)
Mike Kabala 2015-02-19T10:03:02-05:00
Rah rah ruh ... oh, never mind!
Bob "Powers of Tesla" Lindley 2015-02-19T10:03:02-05:00
If a deck of legends became available I would snap that sucker up so fast....
Jeff "Great Cane of Doom"™ Saxton 2015-02-19T10:03:50-05:00
Coming up on 196K ... but it seems pointless to do a screen cap since it too will be bypassed. Hopefully we do 211,714 -- that's 100% more than RR; but 225K would be a nice round number.
Kevin "Lord Zombitten" Buckner 2015-02-19T10:03:54-05:00
Ah, you're are right Wolfette. I'm horrible with names just fyi. It's still not something I could justify.
@LZ lol
Bob "Powers of Tesla" Lindley 2015-02-19T10:05:01-05:00
Another 10K in the last 30 minutes. I love that the trend number and the pledged number on Kicktraq are the same, and they both keep going up. : )
Jeff "Great Cane of Doom"™ Saxton 2015-02-19T10:05:20-05:00
Another chance coming up. $7,891,011
Eric 'Tchotchke' Aschner 2015-02-19T10:05:29-05:00
I might up from a Collector's to a Legends. But in the time it would take for me to make up my mind it would disappear.
Jeff "Great Cane of Doom"™ Saxton 2015-02-19T10:06:29-05:00
With any luck the EK team will make a frenzy by announcing a few more select high tier sets available in the last hour or so.
Geist de la Muerte Gatito 2015-02-19T10:07:10-05:00
I'm broke!
*rattles tin cup* Would some of you good folks like to donate to my "Get A Life" gofundme page? For as little as a dollar, you can help make sure that I spend the reminder of my days playing this and other Kickstarter games while hanging out in the comments section.

The Google document listing pizza deliveries hasn't been updated since last night -- did they announce anywhere how many shelters they eventually ended up supporting? I was expecting more, but saw a note that they were being rate limited from ordering by websites (likely as a fraud prevention measure).
@Geist: I'm finally able to check back in! Had to walk from the train, get my breakfast, and then wait for my slow ass company computer to turn on and load the page!
But I would share Ramen with you...we might even be able to splurge and get an egg to fry and throw in it too!

Good! We'll beat 8 million for sure
We should hit at least 7.75m by the end. It does seem to have slowed down a bit.

So, targets have to be $8m and 200k backers. We're moving towards those, but time is getting away from us...
Never mind....I apparently can't read this morning.
Owen - We're already well past 7.75 million!
And apparently I'm not up to date with comments this afternoon...
We might get a few more people. I'll wager for 198k backers is what we hit.
I would really like to do a study about the different categories of people who bought this game and see if it is all over the place or is the game attracting a certain "type" of clientele ;) Hope The Oatmeal can help me gather this data :p
@Rajiv: What do you mean by type and category?
and a final day GM to you all! :D
@Tchotchke, good morning to you as well!
@Corps, good morning all!
The way you said that Tchotchke, it sounds like it's my last day....are you plotting something I should know about?
Just how it goes GM, the Oats giveth and the Oats decide not to giveth. Also, when did I miss the Wolfette update? I swear not being on late gives me a handicap with introductions......
Good morning, Historian!
GOOD MORNING HISTORIAN! How goes thy day so far?
@GM
Don't worry about it. Just accept it and things will go much smoother.
Me too Potatten I miss a whole lot because of my friends wanting to play games together most nights. Though tonight is drinks...so might not be here for the final few hours of it.
Howdy everybody. Looks like everyone is making an effort to check in this morning.
late last night i was introduced. before i got my application in lol
Good Morning Vietnam! Whoops. Wrong movie.
wanna bet the oatmeal collaborates on more games in the near future.....
How many people are upping their pledges today?
not me....we did our additional pledge last night
@PoT: Checking in on the train, really packed, and one handed. But still chchecking in.
@Tchitchke, not me. I have already put more than $200 in the pot. I'm done.
I'd be worried if people weren't checking in on the last day

I upgraded my pledge yesterday at work. Added another two sets of the 35 level....someone needs to hold me back. >.>
Chat it up LZ. Less than 100 to overtake Creeper.
Wanna share some of my ramen noodles GM? Since we are both gonna be broke.
I would like to increase my pledge, but I don't think the mrs would be too happy with me. Of course, there is always the apologize later route...
Well your presence is certainly welcome here Wolfette! Welcome to the Corps.
Nothing wrong with Ramen ear muffs. Little dry and itchy though.
Good morning all. Hell hasn't frozen over yet, but Charlotte has! I haven't experienced win-chills like this since I left Iowa.
@Geist: I'll be on bread and water until the 27 when I get paid.
@PoT: Mine is around there too.
LZ how many decks you getting so far?or sets of decks, assuming your NSFW level
NEVER ask for permission, only forgiveness. Unless you're under the age of 12.
One NSFW set
I just got thanked by Valerie Willis ~<3 Huzzah! It made my day.....

Adds the "Y"
@House Arrest: Naked is also a good word.
Tchotchke, that would then be facetiously
darn typos. Facetiously ... grumble ..moar coffee
*picks breakfast burrito out of her teeth*
Mix in a little ginger, some peanut butter, cayenne, soy sauce, and garlic, and you have poor man's pad thai
Nobody ever gets the first, but everyone gets the second... (as long as they're told the first, I guess) :P
@GCoD: Moar coffee, less brandy in it this time.
@LZ that's wonderful news
Also, in case anyone missed it last night, from over on BGG: http://www.boardgamegeek.com/thread/1323243/current-rules-feb-8
The answer from my 7th grade year?
The word of the day is "legs"
Spread the word.
@LZ: but that would be a boat load of salt. I'm pretty sure I'd have a heart attack just from one spoonful.
@eric thank you for the early morning English lesson ;)
@PoT: Clever!
That's still techincally in the words GCoD, just to be clear. Remember, we know there are NOPE cards now too.
