You leave Zem-1 out of this, he is clearly innocent!

Kevin "Lord Zombitten" Buckner 2015-03-25T22:36:20-04:00
In all seriousness, I just learned about a new card game on Kickstarter. It sounds like a ton of fun. It's called Salem if you want to check it out. I'm a backer.
That would be amazing Creeper! Bring on the prawns!
Epicderpguy 2015-03-25T22:45:48-04:00
I may need to think of some evil plans if I'm going to do this tho. I don't have many. 80% of all of them involve me walking around town throwing things on the ground.
They can flop, which is like hopping, which is close to walking since obviously humans do both of those (though the last time I started this Derp figured out how to eat space.... so I'll stop with that)
Clearly I know all, how else would I teach one to walk and eat space.
Epicderpguy 2015-03-25T23:01:51-04:00
We can fly, hover, float, swim through space, and swim.

Micah "Zem the Mattress" Philson 2015-03-25T23:56:29-04:00
Ahola again. I keep leaving without a trace and coming back to haunt you guys.
Micah "Zem the Mattress" Philson 2015-03-25T23:57:54-04:00
HEY! No more teaching Derp to consume non-things! Don't lead him on!
And mattresses are the only thing capable of flolloping, so there, derp!
Micah "Zem the Mattress" Philson 2015-03-26T00:02:54-04:00

So did anyone receive a reply yet?
Kevin "Lord Zombitten" Buckner 2015-03-26T00:16:46-04:00
I don't think so, Guardian. I did discover a cool-looking new card game on Kickstarter, though. It's called Salem if you want to check it out.
Micah "Zem the Mattress" Philson 2015-03-26T00:17:38-04:00
Ah, hello. Guess I'm not completely alone. Just playing a game again and had to look something up so thought I'd check back here. I usually do every 10-30 minutes.
Kevin "Lord Zombitten" Buckner 2015-03-26T00:26:12-04:00
You're never alone. They're always watching....waiting...listening. Watching...

The shadow-creepers! Always lurking in hidden nooks, conversing with the subsequent Vashta Nerada.

I must keep hitting dead periods then get lost in a jumble of comments lol
Micah "Zem the Mattress" Philson 2015-03-26T01:10:00-04:00
Well, time for bed I guess. Only less than 10 hours of sleep in the last about 65 hours by my guess. Half as much as is recommended for adults, much less 18-19 year olds who really need about 10 hours a day but never get it. It's worth it for what I wake up for, though. Otherwise I'd be here for 3 more hours or so. Goodnight/morning.
Siddhesh 2015-03-26T01:17:41-04:00
@Creator,
A request on behalf of all backers, please provide shipping that can be tracked so that each backer can know where his/her shipment is at any given moment. It would be so bad if the shipped item were to get lost when on its way (it has happened to me, so I know).
Thanks
John Drinkwater 2015-03-26T03:52:38-04:00
@Siddesh tracking significantly increases shipping cost, unless it was expressly mentioned it is not going to happen and logistically to attempt to provide it as a pay extra option would be impossible for a backer number this size
Juha-Pekka Ahonen 2015-03-26T05:11:11-04:00
@Consuls, how do you plan to prepare for event and what do you expect from it?
Also hope that EK team sends out easy "how to play" cards/leaflets as lot of our evening is gonna consist of teaching others how to play.
Powers of Tesla 2015-03-26T08:32:26-04:00
@Juha. Excellent question. For myself I plan on increasing my workout pace until I can sit upright in a comfortable chair for 5 hours without napping more than a half hour. I'm going to increase my caffeine intake to help with the staying awake, and I'm going to eating more pizza, Because I like pizza. The package will include instructions, but there is no clarification as to the format of the instructions. So I plan to play a few rounds myself, pre-party.
And that is a good question! That will be my focus for today. I need to finalize details with the bar, plan on baking for the event, and looking into some little prizes for people that come! And of course- ordering a kittencorps shirt! PoT- I
Agree it might help to play a few rounds so there's one person there that can help teach. Although it might also be good to hand over the game and let people figure it out in their own as well.
Eric 'Trinkets&Nopes' Baumgarten 2015-03-26T09:00:46-04:00
Heya trinkets!! Do you have any idea as t what trinkets I could have at the playtest party?
Eric 'Trinkets&Nopes' Baumgarten 2015-03-26T09:05:32-04:00
I really hope we don't see any of the playtest decks on ebay after the playtest parties. After the regular decks are in hand to the backers, that's fine with me, but I hope someone didn't do this to try and make bank.
Eric 'Trinkets&Nopes' Baumgarten 2015-03-26T09:06:33-04:00
Btw, I am not addressing any KittenCorps with my last statement. It's more for the unknown people.
Eric 'Trinkets&Nopes' Baumgarten 2015-03-26T09:06:51-04:00
I'll think about that, Creeper.

Oooooooooh. Ok, whatever they are, you could bury them in a litter box. Everyone has to take turns digging their trinket out with a litter scoop.
1- I didn't even think about that withthe decks...I'm hoping most of the people that made the effort to make a video and host will kinda cherish the special decks. Maybe give one as a gift to the location, and one to a friend? I'd hope the same thing- no eBay.
2-very cute idea- may be a little difficult... But cute nonetheless!!
3-litter box idea is brilliant.
Juha-Pekka Ahonen 2015-03-26T09:15:20-04:00
How big crowd are you expecting and how long you expect them to stay?
I believe where I'm being nobody is gonna stay for more than 2-3 games and I plan to play always when there isn't full table, though If my wife tags along I might ask shop keeper if we can play other games they have at store while letting the visitors teach each other and step in when needed, if easy how to play things are missing might make them my self propably on both languages. Finnish and english.
I'm quite curious how is it gonna turn out to be
Eric 'Trinkets&Nopes' Baumgarten 2015-03-26T09:17:30-04:00
Yeah, not to toot my own horn, but I think that is a awesome idea.
I don't know how much work a litter box cake would be, but that might me another idea. Bury some tootsie roll pieces inside of it.
Juha- i have no idea!!! I'm thinking with a bar atmosphere, they'll stay awhile, have a drink or two, cupcat and some food. I think that's a great idea with the facebook event - it will help us all gauge how many people plan on coming to it!
Morning BaKhan!
Yeah - PoT - I'm going to do that as well. I think it's a good idea. I liked Cha!'s #cansforkittens idea too.
*sigh* i'm now having an issue with the bar. my friend who is helping me cohost told me it was all confirmed, etc. But now they're asking me for exact numbers, and I can't give them that!
I had 10 glorious hours of sleep. TEN!!! So i am happy and doing very well. :)
Powers of Tesla 2015-03-26T09:35:15-04:00
Good morning everyone. I envy you Creeper. I could not sleep at all until 3am. I'm working today too. On a hot 3 hours of sleep. Oh it's gonna be good.
PoT - it's a rare rare occasion- I'm usually up until 3 or 4, and get about 5 hours. But I'm sorry you had a rough night. :(
Kevin "Lord Zombitten" Buckner 2015-03-26T09:44:39-04:00
Morning everyone! Check out the new card game I backed last night; it sounds super fun. It's a witch hunt-based social deduction game. That's all the plug I'm going to do for now, unless people have questions, because it's uncool for me to plug it here anyway.
Please join me in welcoming @Sparkypi and his minions, the Cittens, to the KittenCorps.
Kevin "Lord Zombitten" Buckner 2015-03-26T09:48:20-04:00
As for planning the parties, I plan on playing a few games beforehand to familiarize myself with the game. I need to make some phone calls to plan additional parties. I don't know that many people are going to stick around for very long, but I think people will come and go for at least a couple of hours. I am planning on giving a deck to the owner of Mystic Hobby Games, and one to the other person in my area who submitted a video.
Juha: You could do a "normal" table top gaming event [featuring] exploding kittens. Just have it be one of the games that are there. This obviously works better if you can get the help of a local gaming place like LZ. Plying them with liquor and sweets is by far my favorite strategy as of yet Creeper, and now I hear offers of Trinkets! I'm more than likely not going to be able to sneak up there and intrude on your event :-(
Kevin "Lord Zombitten" Buckner 2015-03-26T09:51:44-04:00
I would like to do trinkets; but where I'm trying to do a bunch of parties, trinkets would probably bankrupt me.
Rod "BaKhan" Mitchell 2015-03-26T09:54:52-04:00
Thats the problem with trinkets, the cost sneeks up on you! Too bad you all don't have more time or you could have gone in on a big lot and split them up amongst yourselves. Sweet sweet trinkets!
Mike Kabala 2015-03-26T09:55:42-04:00
Anybody going to hand out KittenCorps business cards at their parties?
We could do Kitten Corps flyers instead CB.... it would be cheaper. (Kitten Corps stuff, proceeds not going to cost go to charity or something like that..... I'm not artist)
Potatten - Boo hiss!!! :( Don't worry - - I'm going to host one in my backyard soon when it gets nice. I'll let you know. Your attendance would secure Samoa cheesecake!
Custom printed napkins would also be cool. I wouldn't go with Cafe Press for them though. Too expensive. It would also cost less if we used the one color Coat of Paws logo and added the web URL underneath.
There's a company i used for my pens... pretty good prices. can't think of it at the moment, though. Hrrrm... I also glued miniature cupcakes to the clicker on each pen. :)
There are tiny grenades on Etsy.... just saying....

I saw that! I was bummed that their first attempt didn't work.
Id like to see prof f return and have these two battle it out.
Yeah, I thought they had more time. Another day, maybe two, and they'd have had it!
Sounds like fun

Whales can walk?!?!?
We hover/fly but close enough right?
Flying, walking they even sound the same

Creeper, you could see if the bar wants to make a special drink for the event?
Hand out samples of 9 lives cat food?
I'm going to ask for donations for a local pet shelter at my event too. Just a thought.
Top o' the morning to ya, PoT
Morning corps!
I would be ok with eBay ing the decks to give the money to a shelter.
Good morning, BaKahn

Well.... if you do button pins you could probably go fairly cheaply.
Ugh! There are the comments about sleeves and plastic cards again....
We could do Kitten Corps flyers instead CB.... it would be cheaper. (Kitten Corps stuff, proceeds not going to cost go to charity or something like that..... I'm not artist)
Well if we do business cards LZ we should do them in plastic and ensure they have sleeves.... or else it will be obvious we cheaped out.
That's true, Dr P. And they need to be SaS
Flyers would be good too, if anyone wants to give it a go designing one.
Hi all.
My Mug has arrived! Dual Logo'ed and colour changing awesomeness.

Bye all! Heading home now. Might jump in again later.
I also agree with the KittenCorps buttons. The 100-pack is fairly inexpensive. Only problem is they don't have a web address on them.
Potatten - Boo hiss!!! :( Don't worry - - I'm going to host one in my backyard soon when it gets nice. I'll let you know. Your attendance would secure Samoa cheesecake!
I DID NOT KNOW WE HAD A COLOR CHANGING MUG!!!
Oops, I guess the 100-pack is still pretty pricey. Maybe the ten-pack.
I think its only fair that the sleeves be ambidexterous and EU friendly! Just saying...
I should just hand out flannel sleeves to everyone. I'd love to see the look on their faces.
You all need to stop handing out my sleeves. My arms are starting to get cold. T.T
hehehe... sorry GM!
Custom printed napkins would also be cool. I wouldn't go with Cafe Press for them though. Too expensive. It would also cost less if we used the one color Coat of Paws logo and added the web URL underneath.
Or pens. I love pens.
They could use the pens to fill out survey and keep them!
Excellent idea, Creeper!
OMG Samoa Cheesecake.... I also feel the same way, when did we get a color changing mug?
BOO!
There's a company i used for my pens... pretty good prices. can't think of it at the moment, though. Hrrrm... I also glued miniature cupcakes to the clicker on each pen. :)
There are tiny grenades on Etsy.... just saying....
The dual-logo mug comes in either white or a black one that changes color. I chose white because I thought it looked better.
I used National Pen years ago when my oldest son was born.
http://www.pens.com
White turns out the best. I thought of color-changing, but it turns black and I have coffee, so it'd just be a black mug, especially over the coat of paws.
@Creeper: You like pens? I think I have an addiction to pens...I mean, I've got like 10-ish wooden pens, and another 3-4 on the way. >.>
GM We have the pens we pick up or acquire over the years. Now around-abouts the vicinity of... several hundred. Want some?
