She might have gone away, but damage has been done. Don't know how many girls I've heard saying they want to be just like Paris. Oh, can we remove those real life barbies while we're at it?
Geist de la Muerte Gatito 2015-05-26T17:19:59-04:00
This is true but in order for us to do that, we need to kill the person who came up with the first smash reality show. It was on MTV. I can't remember the name of it. Then it was the one that was set on an island. Richard Hatch won it and then the flood gates opened and hell was loosed.
Can we just kill the people that changed:
- MTV from a music station
- TLC from a learning channel
- Any others that I missed from what they were initially set up for
Powers of Tesla 2015-05-26T19:45:15-04:00
The History Channel is now the reality show channel, same for Discovery.
David Guidry "Doc" 2015-05-26T20:24:00-04:00
And just got the email.....can't wait.....party at my house when it finanly arrives... I has a pool and beer....Lol
Geist de la Muerte Gatito 2015-05-26T22:00:04-04:00
@GM: I don't get cable anymore so I don't much care for TLC but I agree about MTV.
Mike Kabala 2015-05-26T23:06:47-04:00
I haven't gotten my email yet, but I'm not complaining, since I do have the play test deck. My Rongo Rongo cards finally arrived last week and they are looking great! I added 100 poker chips and I love the way they turned out. They're clay chips in five different colors and they even have Rongo Rongo printed on the edges.
Nathan Barnes 2015-05-27T00:06:35-04:00
Still keeping an eye out for the survey. Nothing yet.
If you're really confused by what your pledge is getting you, click "Campaign" at the top and go look at the tiers again. $35 gets you the originally deck, plus the expanded NSFW deck (the person who paid additional for the original deck is now getting TWO original decks) the super fancy secret cards, as well as the awesome box. All because of the unlocked rewards.
This is not hard to figure out.
It can be confusing though Chris, so let's be patient and make sure to answer questions when they do come up.
Geist de la Muerte Gatito 2015-05-27T10:01:59-04:00
I can wait. July isn't that far away and there are other games to play and other things to do in the meantime.
Like make new plans to capture Creeper's UPS guy if she hasn't gotten the precious yet.
Zachare Sylvestre 2015-05-27T10:27:04-04:00
@Exploding Kittens Team:
I would like to thank you for all that you have done to notify us on how things are going on the development. Also, if you get me my game indeed by July, you will be the FIRST project that I have backed on Kickstarter that is ON TIME! Jeezus, that is a damn accomplishment.
vengeancewolf 2015-05-27T11:20:05-04:00
What a wonderful day early birthday gift to me! Survey is all filled out and ready to explode me some kittens in the coming days.
I think he meant to say "put the kids to bed so I can attempt to clean the house." How it will look after they've been awake for an hour or two is irrelevant.
You may be right, you know. Sometimes the truth IS as kinky as you.
Geist de la Muerte Gatito 2015-05-27T16:09:09-04:00
How have you been Idle? Still raining golf balls? We are about to get hit with a major thunderstorm so I'm pretty sure I will be sopping wet when I walk in the house.
@Geist: The wag I put that it does sound like there are only two people here. But no, there are 26 total, and not too bad. Most are a little older, a few cuties.
Geist de la Muerte Gatito 2015-05-27T16:29:06-04:00
Ah. So it wasn't my dirty mind at work. Not that there is anything wrong with that.
Geist de la Muerte Gatito 2015-05-27T19:51:18-04:00
So the big thunderstorm that the weather man predicted got called off. I was looking forward to listening to the soothing sounds of thunder while sipping a nightcap.
*sigh* Maybe tomorrow.
Geist de la Muerte Gatito 2015-05-27T19:51:53-04:00
Nighty night Idle. Don't let the Cenobites...bite.
Thomas W Bassett 2015-05-27T21:50:21-04:00
my survey arrived about this time, yesterday, so there's hope still for the rest of you.
:)
Thomas Anderson 2015-05-27T21:55:45-04:00
Still no survey. :(
Gabriel Linares 2015-05-27T22:13:15-04:00
As I sit by my computer I make a small wish, "May the the Exploding Kittens Gods of Mass Destruction, Excitement, Joy, Pain, and Betrayal shine upon me the survey of this such game so that I may bring CATaclysmic destruction and joy into the sad, boring, and non-exploding world that is my life without this game."
Micah "Zem the Mattress" Philson 2015-05-27T23:21:28-04:00
BOO!!! The mattress returns! But for a limited time only, I leave again friday, so get it while it lasts. Filled out my survey and everything!
Backpacking and the western side of Colorado are amazing. Also, derp, if you're on, turns out my cousins, whom I stayed with two days, live in Centennial as well, though I thought they were in Aurora, so I was probably within a mile of your home lurking ground.
Have a nice day everyone!
C.F. "The Ex-President" Heyns 2015-05-28T03:49:12-04:00
Morning all! Any questions that need to be answered?
I haven't received my survey. Hope everythings alright.
C.F. "The Ex-President" Heyns 2015-05-28T06:01:13-04:00
Sooooooooooon
Ben Carpenter 2015-05-28T06:51:36-04:00
Just got and completed the survey. :)
JanW 2015-05-28T07:12:02-04:00
Does anybody know if the surveys go out by order of backer number? I'm close to #200k, so at the very end of the list if that is the case.
Jason Hoffman 2015-05-28T08:31:31-04:00
YAY! I just filled out my survey! I can pretty much assure you that they are not going out in order of backer number - I am #5362 and I just received mine late last night.
They are using the database they downloaded from kickstarter and are probably just going down the list JanW. Who knows what kind of order kickstarter had that email list in when they got it. Don't worry. They will get it to you.
C.F. "The Ex-President" Heyns 2015-05-28T08:58:50-04:00
Dr P is correct, the e-mails are being sent out in batches and we have no idea what order they are in. So hang in there and be patient. I am also still waiting for mine to arrive.
Rod "BaKhan" Mitchell 2015-05-28T09:13:37-04:00
Hey kitteneers! Just got my survey and duely filled it out! We're getting close! I feel so EU friendly right now... like a trinket gently wrapped in a flanel sleeve, in a special tin, at the bottom of a lake...
Robert S 2015-05-28T09:16:36-04:00
Still kitten-less here as well, but as we've not got to the end of the 9 day week yet I am gnawing my fingernails as I await the email... Whatever the order of emails only the gods know (or the kittens) so we must be as patient as padawan kittens I suppose.
Rod "BaKhan" Mitchell 2015-05-28T09:19:17-04:00
If we're going by backer number mine is #19231, I can't even imagine what it would be like to have to send out 200000+ surveys! Crazy!
Geist de la Muerte Gatito 2015-05-28T10:11:07-04:00
Haven't gotten mine but I'm not worrying.
Morning all.
C.F. "The Ex-President" Heyns 2015-05-28T10:12:15-04:00
Hi Geist!
Geist de la Muerte Gatito 2015-05-28T10:20:49-04:00
It's almost the weekend. Got any plan Ex Prez?
C.F. "The Ex-President" Heyns 2015-05-28T10:26:05-04:00
Survive? Got some kiddie parties lined up for Saturday and Sunday, plus it's payday tomorrow and the wife wants to go shopping for a dishwasher. So my wallet and I intend to survive if at all possible.
Geist de la Muerte Gatito 2015-05-28T10:28:44-04:00
lol, reading that made me thing of Al Bundy on the show "Married With Children". The kiddie parties should at least be fun. Just keep a flask so that you have something a little extra to help you through all the screaming little kids.
Sollock_ 2015-05-28T10:29:50-04:00
I just filled out my survey yesterday! Let's hope they ship when they're supposed to!
Geist de la Muerte Gatito 2015-05-28T10:47:34-04:00
@Sollock: I'd say that the target ship date is a done deal. If it isn't, I'm sure they have a deal, they will tell us. Have faith.
Rod "BaKhan" Mitchell 2015-05-28T11:00:20-04:00
I don't know, think about all those times they've let us down in the past, oh wait, they never have! Of course it will be on time!
Geist de la Muerte Gatito 2015-05-28T11:01:28-04:00
Howdy BaKhan! Long time, no see!
Rod "BaKhan" Mitchell 2015-05-28T11:02:50-04:00
Hey Geist! I haven't been commenting, but I have been lurking! I loved your cenobite reference last night! lol!
Geist de la Muerte Gatito 2015-05-28T11:07:09-04:00
Thank you. I'm currently reading the new Clive Barker novel "The Scarlet Gospels". It's a really good read. Better than his last book "Mr. Be Gone". It's a pity that this book is Pinhead's swan song.
Rod "BaKhan" Mitchell 2015-05-28T11:26:37-04:00
I haven't read any Clive Barker in some time! I think the last one I read was Everville, the sequel to The Great and Secret Show. Which was wonderful and dark and everything I expect out of Clive! This new one any good?
Geist de la Muerte Gatito 2015-05-28T11:32:52-04:00
It's very good BaKhan. I'm almost halfway though the book and it's been a page turner the whole way. Not many books have that effect on me. You should also read "Weave World". It's one of my favorite Clive Barker books.
Geist de la Muerte Gatito 2015-05-28T11:34:35-04:00
I recently picked up a 1st edition copy of "The Damnation Game". It's been so long since I've read it that I will most likely read it after I finish The Scarlet Gospels.
Micah "Zem the Mattress" Philson 2015-05-28T11:35:22-04:00
Hi everyone! Now that I have 1 full day between backpacking and vacationing before summer class, I'm going to spend it not here. Gotta go to Omaha for awhile now.
Bye everyone!
Micah "Zem the Mattress" Philson 2015-05-28T11:37:14-04:00
Geist, I'm currently rereading the Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy series. After 3 total days of driving there and back and around, I'm in the third book midway through, about 400 pages now. No idea what I'll read after that, but it's my favorite book/series of all time.
Micah "Zem the Mattress" Philson 2015-05-28T11:38:55-04:00
As evidenced by my name.
When I got to the part where Marvin the paranoid android talks with a Zem, my eyes flolloped, my heart gibbered, and my brain floopily reared above the marshes to try to see the bridge that Marvin depressed to suicide. (all of which makes no sense unless you read that short chapter ;)
Rod "BaKhan" Mitchell 2015-05-28T11:43:19-04:00
I read Weave World a long time ago, really enjoyed it! There have been so many and the Books of Blood, I don't even know all the names anymore! lol! Horror is definitely my favourite genre, and Clive is a master! I'll have to give Scarlet Gospels a go!
Woo! Got my pledge manager....and I owe a little for shipping. Only 20$
Geist de la Muerte Gatito 2015-05-28T11:53:17-04:00
You won't regret it BaKhan. Clive really pulled out all the stops with this one. I'm hoping that he finishes the Abarat series. I purchased the last book but didn't read it because I didn't know how long it will take him to finish the books.
I made the mistake of reading the last book in the Eragon series and was completely lost because I'd forgotten half the characters and their circumstances in relation to the story.
Geist de la Muerte Gatito 2015-05-28T11:54:04-04:00
Howdy GM. How is the work day going?
Micah "Zem the Mattress" Philson 2015-05-28T12:00:59-04:00
I guess we aren't leaving quite yet. Well then Howdy-doo! Everyone have a splendiforous week?
Not bad Geist. Technically not at eork. Sitting at a US payroll course again today and tomorrow.
Geist de la Muerte Gatito 2015-05-28T12:17:11-04:00
Sounds like fun! As long as your job pays your wages for taking this course, then it's all good.
Micah "Zem the Mattress" Philson 2015-05-28T12:18:52-04:00
Every time you mention you work with payrolls, I think of you riding a wagon out west only to be involved in a stick-up and get robbed so that all of the good, hard working people won't be able to get their dues, so you go and round up a posse and have a shoot-out at the corral where the bandits are hiding. Do you happen to be friends with John Wayne?!
Thanks for your patience with the surveys, guys. We can only send out a couple hundred every five minutes or so to avoid spam filters.
If you're running into issues or don't see your email by tomorrow (Friday, May 29th) please email support@explodingkittens.com so we can get that worked out for you.

Looks like my survey came after all. I'm waiting to hear back from someone who might know a few folks who want to get in on this. I give him until 8 pm today before I turn it in. I want my exploding kitties!
She might have gone away, but damage has been done. Don't know how many girls I've heard saying they want to be just like Paris. Oh, can we remove those real life barbies while we're at it?
This is true but in order for us to do that, we need to kill the person who came up with the first smash reality show. It was on MTV. I can't remember the name of it. Then it was the one that was set on an island. Richard Hatch won it and then the flood gates opened and hell was loosed.
Can we just kill the people that changed:
- MTV from a music station
- TLC from a learning channel
- Any others that I missed from what they were initially set up for
The History Channel is now the reality show channel, same for Discovery.
And just got the email.....can't wait.....party at my house when it finanly arrives... I has a pool and beer....Lol
@GM: I don't get cable anymore so I don't much care for TLC but I agree about MTV.
I haven't gotten my email yet, but I'm not complaining, since I do have the play test deck. My Rongo Rongo cards finally arrived last week and they are looking great! I added 100 poker chips and I love the way they turned out. They're clay chips in five different colors and they even have Rongo Rongo printed on the edges.
Still keeping an eye out for the survey. Nothing yet.
What email address is the survey coming from?
@Decklin Rivers, the e-mail is The Exploding Kittens Team (support@explodingkittens.com)
Got my survey email early this morning!
Here you go CB: https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/653481781/chivalry-playing-cards…
If you're really confused by what your pledge is getting you, click "Campaign" at the top and go look at the tiers again. $35 gets you the originally deck, plus the expanded NSFW deck (the person who paid additional for the original deck is now getting TWO original decks) the super fancy secret cards, as well as the awesome box. All because of the unlocked rewards.
This is not hard to figure out.
It can be confusing though Chris, so let's be patient and make sure to answer questions when they do come up.
I can wait. July isn't that far away and there are other games to play and other things to do in the meantime.
Like make new plans to capture Creeper's UPS guy if she hasn't gotten the precious yet.
@Exploding Kittens Team:

Yay! Happy early birthday!
Happy "It's-Almost-Friday"!
Evening All!
Howdy Ex. How are things? Did you get your survey yet?
No survey yet. :(
Trying to clean house and put kids in bed.
Clean house AND put kids to bed? Isn't that virtually impossible?
I think he meant to say "put the kids to bed so I can attempt to clean the house." How it will look after they've been awake for an hour or two is irrelevant.
How are my kittens today? I'm waiting for the afternoon session to begin for this course. There are only two guys(including me) in the class.
So you are surrounded by a bunch of women? Nothing wrong with that, right?
Sound to me that only two people showed up.
Ohhhhh. I read that completely wrong. (Lifts mind out of the gutter. Brushes it off)
You may be right, you know. Sometimes the truth IS as kinky as you.
How have you been Idle? Still raining golf balls? We are about to get hit with a major thunderstorm so I'm pretty sure I will be sopping wet when I walk in the house.
@Geist: The wag I put that it does sound like there are only two people here. But no, there are 26 total, and not too bad. Most are a little older, a few cuties.
Ah. So it wasn't my dirty mind at work. Not that there is anything wrong with that.
I never go my email with the survey
Nothing much, waiting for the darn Pebble to ship. Smells wintery outside, it's cold and windy. I might as well tuck in.
Nighty :)
Night
Go go team Bulgaria :D
;)
So the big thunderstorm that the weather man predicted got called off. I was looking forward to listening to the soothing sounds of thunder while sipping a nightcap.
*sigh* Maybe tomorrow.

That's so awesome of you Geist! Also, hey Elan!
See you later Zem, whenever you get to where needs be gotten to.
I knew it! Dinner with in-laws and a wild Elan appears! Hi Elan! Keep up the mails so our surveys fly out of that queue and into our inboxes.
100 every five minutes, that is crazy hectic work for sure.
@Geist: we have a lunch buffet every day, same with breakfast.
Lucky you GM. They don't hardly give nothing free in the company that I currently work for. Cheap bastards.
SURVEY DOOONNEEEEEE Can't wait for these to come in!
I got my survey! It's happening, it's really happening!
Am I the only person who is still waiting for their survey? Spam folder check.
Survey is done and done
Naw I am waiting for my Survey as well
What do you know. The survey is here. In promotions folder.
Tomorrow. Sleep now. Hey guys, Elan. You're awesome.
Good night.
