KS just wants their cut. They aren't even caring about anything else. Hell, they never stepped in when projects screwed over their backers.
Adjel 2015-02-26T09:51:01-05:00
I checked my bank account to make sure my pledge for EK cleared and noticed it was tagged as a "recurring payment." Was anyone else's tagged like that with their bank?? Trying to find out if it was a glitch or not. All my other KS payments just said "check card payment."
They're obviously aiming for coolest cooler. Their backer limitations tell us that they clearly have the product already made, or already in production....
@Adjel: If it's a recurring payment it's a payment that happens over and over, month to month. It's probably a bill or a subscription to something you set up. If you do not recognize it, tell your bank immediately and ask them to identify it.
Most importantly though if your bank can't identify it as occurring through EK KS or as a valid subscription: CONTACT the creators and KS using the appropriate means on this site and the contact me button above!
Withdrawal Debit Card / KICKSTARTER EXPLODING XXX-XXX-XXXX CA Date is how mine was labeled.
Okay, enough of that. Who's in for a game of Exploding Kittens?
Melissa "The Creeper" Nicole 2015-02-26T10:06:52-05:00
@Adjel - Contact Kickstarter first to verify your payment and NOT recurring, but still make sure you have one payment processed. You can also email info@explodingkittens.com with PAYMENT in the subject line to double check they received your payment.

and FYI, corps, I WAS having normal dreams until the last one. I was awake. The piano kept playing in my room... someone kept going up and down the keys. So I said, "ok. I know I'm awake....but I'm imagining the piano playing. My roommate stuck her head in and said, "no -you're asleep- but someone is really playing the piano." And then I shot up awake because that meant there was a stranger in my room. I stared at piano - it started playing itself. I laid back down and thought "ok.... i'm still asleep then." and then my doorbell rang, woke up me- and my roommate yelled "DOOR BELL! can you get it?" I get up, answer the door - no one is there. Roommate is asleep.
Melissa "The Creeper" Nicole 2015-02-26T10:12:55-05:00
LMFAO, I hate it when I have dreams like that! They really mess with your head. I've tried to continue having a conversation once, where the other party had NO clue what I was talking about.... but pretty much said what I figured they would say about it. Kind of creepy.

Good morning All. Anything new today?

Snow last night into morning. Federal government on two hour delay so the office is really quiet and I get to work with someone I actually like in this office. At least there is some good to come out of this.
@Geist: Finding one person, or more, that you enjoy working with is always a good thing. Helps keep one with a semblance of being sane...though we all know sanity is a myth...and boring.
Geist de la Muerte Gatito 2015-02-26T10:53:15-05:00
@GM: Sanity if fine. Being normal is boring
Jeff "Great Cane of Doom"™ Saxton 2015-02-26T10:53:48-05:00
Well, nothing really exciting happening then. I see that the game "Shadowstar Corsairs" finally did its KS campaign -- I did a reminder -- it looks like it could be fun, but I'm on the fence about it yet.
Melissa "The Creeper" Nicole 2015-02-26T10:54:46-05:00
Geist de la Muerte Gatito 2015-02-26T10:55:59-05:00
@GCoD: I don't see anything on KS that tickles my fancy. Which is just as well since I've spent enough. I still have to get the UK version of Clive Barker's new novel and get some from the KC shop.
Jeff "Great Cane of Doom"™ Saxton 2015-02-26T10:59:13-05:00
I must admit, I'm only watching the Corsairs game because he announced he may sell the plastic minis as a SG. I am a sucker for little plastic spaceships, even if the game they come in sucks. (I'm not saying Corsairs sucks, just that I'll take minis from a bad game and trash the game).
Eric 'Trinkets&Nopes' Baumgarten 2015-02-26T11:00:04-05:00
@GCod: I've starred to potential ones to back. One is a card game RPG, the other is a hack and slash video game that looks kind of cool. Not backing either until near the end, one because I'm not sure if it will succeed, the other because I don't know if it's worth it.
Eric 'Trinkets&Nopes' Baumgarten 2015-02-26T11:04:31-05:00
Toe jam and earl? I think it was a video game. Maybe a show too?
Melissa "The Creeper" Nicole 2015-02-26T11:05:18-05:00
@Trinkets- i just remember playing the game. They're trying to make a new one. tempting.
Melissa "The Creeper" Nicole 2015-02-26T11:06:26-05:00

Melissa "The Creeper" Nicole 2015-02-26T11:11:04-05:00
nooooooooooo
Eric 'Trinkets&Nopes' Baumgarten 2015-02-26T11:12:50-05:00
I never played the old one, just know it existed. I am still stuck with my original PS2. And I don't own a computer. But dammit, Final Fantasy 7 still gets played once a year at least.
@Trinkets: I'll probably end up loading it onto the laptop I'm buying today(turns into a tablet, WOOT!) so that when I'm traveling to Houston, I can play it.
@Trinkets: Such feels.... it was one of the best written games in history. The villain isn't the worst one in the series, but he is the most memorable! It set the standard... now they just need to get off they're asses and revamp the graphics, they've no excuse.....
Melissa "The Creeper" Nicole 2015-02-26T11:20:50-05:00
Kittykitty scared the crap out of me again. He just appears like a freakin' ninja some days.
Melissa "The Creeper" Nicole 2015-02-26T11:21:40-05:00
We shared some slow blinks.
Geist de la Muerte Gatito 2015-02-26T11:22:07-05:00
@Creeper: Cats do that sometimes. I think they enjoy it.
Eric 'Trinkets&Nopes' Baumgarten 2015-02-26T11:23:08-05:00
The only fault I have with the game, is that I end up sticking with the same 3 most of the time. I have never gotten Aeris' Ultimate limit break.
Agreed @Potatten. Graphics upgrade with exact same story would have me buying any game system it came on.
Melissa "The Creeper" Nicole 2015-02-26T11:23:53-05:00
Oh sure, then he acts all startled when I gasp and jump back.
Now to join into a conference call...I'll check back after this training thingymajig is done with.
Eric 'Trinkets&Nopes' Baumgarten 2015-02-26T11:32:11-05:00
@Potatten. I have mastered all materia, got every weapon, item, limit break (except for Aeris' Ultimate LB). Everyone's ultimate weapons. All chocobos. Beat all weapons.
Besides Aeris LB, the only other thing I haven't done is all of the turtle paradise posters. I always forget that. Next time, it's going to get done.
Christiaan "The Ex-President" Heyns 2015-02-26T11:35:03-05:00
Eveing 'Corps! just have to sort the kids out with dinner and get them bathed and in bed.
Will then start on the map.
Geist de la Muerte Gatito 2015-02-26T11:36:39-05:00
@Trinkets: Yes, I beat the crap out of the steam achievements because I could. It's not hard to get her limit break, you just have to be of mind to grab it when it comes up. And everyone has their favorite three! I switch it up, but don't often favor Vincent personally.
Melissa "The Creeper" Nicole 2015-02-26T11:49:40-05:00
I still never beat Sonic the Hedgehog....

@Potatten. I'm going to gut it out with Tifa, Yuffie and Cloud as main 3. Never took Tifa or Yuffie too far.
I heard that there is a way to have Barrett go on the "date" around Wonder Square. Not sure if that was Japanese version or if you can do it in the US version.
Melissa "The Creeper" Nicole 2015-02-26T12:13:33-05:00
Do fruitattens play video games?
Bob "Powers of Tesla" Lindley 2015-02-26T12:26:10-05:00
You can date Barret! It's very hard to do though, especially if you get Yuffie before you go there. It's funny getting the girls to not like you. If you get Tifa to like you lots before end there is also an extra scene too. Few people know that game better than me...
@Geist: I couldn't unfortunately. My manager was in the conference call, and the trainee was sitting beside me. Plus, it was also using a remote desktop viewer because we were learning how to use the payroll system for our US divisions.
Melissa "The Creeper" Nicole 2015-02-26T12:52:12-05:00
@Chris - I'm sorry to hear that. :( I would go through kickstarter first. They are the ones handling the money part of this campaign. If that doesn't work, then contact your bank and try reaching out to info@explodingkittens.com with the subject PAYMENT
Talk about a seriously heavy presentation.... a lot of work went into making that thing happen GM.... it was probably a LONG drawn out nightmare too huh?
Melissa "The Creeper" Nicole 2015-02-26T12:52:43-05:00
No, this is just wrong. I'm watching dreams getting trumped by commercialism. Their own dreams nonetheless.
Hiya GM. It's a sunny afternoon and I'm pondering on the unfair things in life.
Morning GM! Just talking about Pebbles and funny things that make us laugh! https://www.youtube.com/watch…
Pebble makes me wonder when some multi-billion dollar corporation is going to try and use KS by having one of its execs start a campaign
Damn. Half of the Moment backers, the loudest ones, are on Pebble now. This should be fun.
@GM: That's what irks me, it's a small step.
Aaand... done. Infidels.

Good morning All. Anything new today?
blurst
@GCoD: Morning. Only new thing(not really new though) is Creeper is still in her kit-caption.
grrradfhfvmmmmble
And apparently she is learning Whale speak.
Nothing new here, light snow flurries, but that is hardly newsworthy.
@GM: Where's derp when we need him!
*reaches hand in direction of the coffee pot*
We have snow today, and all day yesterday. It was also -14C when I woke up today...we're supposed to get to a high of -9C by 3pm.
But GM, you're in the Great White north, that should be expected, even in July!
@GCod: Oh, I know. I wasn't complaining, just stating a fact. ;)
And in July it suddenly becomes 105 degrees F and the mosquitos are a blinding fog.
@GCoD: That's only on July first, and only for about a 15min span.
I intend to enjoy the spring here with +14C while it lasts. A couple of days according to the forecast. Then RAIN!
Maybe snow did burn in hell. Good.
Hahahah.

Howdy gang. Day 5 of the worst flu evaaaaah!
What's been happening?
Not much.
That's old school type stuff creeper...
Hey Trinkets! @GM - I think so. @Potatten - i know. im getting nostalgic.
@GCod: I've starred to potential ones to back. One is a card game RPG, the other is a hack and slash video game that looks kind of cool. Not backing either until near the end, one because I'm not sure if it will succeed, the other because I don't know if it's worth it.
Also, @Trinkets, BACK YOU INFECTED DEMON! BACK!

I never played the old one, just know it existed. I am still stuck with my original PS2. And I don't own a computer. But dammit, Final Fantasy 7 still gets played once a year at least.
Looks like I'm going to have to cite Julius on Misuse and Negligent Discharge of the kitty cannon!
@Trinkets: Is it bad that I have NEVER played FF7? I've played many of the other ones, just not 7. I even own it through Steam on my computer.
Thank you, my dear Potatten. ... can someone use kitty cannon to rocket some coffee to me? it's so far away. and still needs to be made...
OMG NEVER GM?! It's so good....
@GM, I put over 100 hours into it once, maybe twice a year. It still hits me in the feels.
@Creeper Here you go. BOOM!
@Creeper: If I had access to the Kitty Cannon I would. But sadly I can't.
On a side note, when I ordered my coffee this morning(medium dark roast black) I was given a free upgrade to a large. :D
Probably the best story and sheer epic content of any game I've played.
@Trinkets: I'll probably end up loading it onto the laptop I'm buying today(turns into a tablet, WOOT!) so that when I'm traveling to Houston, I can play it.
@Trinkets: Such feels.... it was one of the best written games in history. The villain isn't the worst one in the series, but he is the most memorable! It set the standard... now they just need to get off they're asses and revamp the graphics, they've no excuse.....

Hey PoT!
How is everyone?
Well. This has been fun, but I have to get ready for PT. I try to check in later.
How do you cancle? I don't have the funds anymore because of terrible things :(
Well...that was a fairly long winded conference call.
@GM: Did you fall asleep? I tend to do that when a conference call rambles on and on
PT? Best of luck with that. Also we're doing well!
Sorry I missed you PoT. I was reading up on the Sims 4. I was thinking of buying it but the reviews are so bad that I'll skip this.
@Geist: I couldn't unfortunately. My manager was in the conference call, and the trainee was sitting beside me. Plus, it was also using a remote desktop viewer because we were learning how to use the payroll system for our US divisions.

Hey PoT! Glad to see you! How was the surgery?
Oh yeah, PoT had surgery...is your knee now Kitten-proof? Or does it turn into a blast shield when explosives are detected nearby?
Is your knee sleeved???
@PoT: Does your knee now predict the weather like my gran's does?
Does it come with extra flannel options? Details man, details!
European friendly?
Someone wake PoT back up! Too many painkillers.
