If you wake up anytime after 8am EST Saturday and still don't have the survey, then you should worry about contacting the EK team. Still another FULL day for survey sending to be done.
Micah "Zem the Mattress" Philson 2015-05-28T19:24:02-04:00
Figures. Elan visits JUST after I leave!
Pride365 2015-05-28T21:24:42-04:00
I just filled out my survey!
Paul Benz 2015-05-28T21:26:52-04:00
Got my survey and ordered an extra set to send with my daughter going off to college. Figured my set would disappear if I did not order an extra one.
Micah "Zem the Mattress" Philson 2015-05-28T21:35:58-04:00
I wonder if the survey comments will temporarily replace the complaints begging for the game to come. At least no more 12-a-day comments wondering about when the survey is coming.
They have already done that Zem, we've already achieved peek survey worrying over begging complaints.
Micah "Zem the Mattress" Philson 2015-05-28T22:04:48-04:00
Ugh! How many times do I have to tell you people?! I have no idea! Now get off my property!
Micah "Zem the Mattress" Philson 2015-05-28T22:06:50-04:00
Also, derp, I thought my cousins whom I stayed with were in Aurora, but they live in Centennial, so chances are I was within a mile or so of your home romping grounds. Good thing I missed you and wasn't crushed by your whaliness.
Epicderpguy 2015-05-28T22:20:07-04:00
Wow that was close. Heck I probably was within a couple of feet of you but you would have never noticed because science.
Epicderpguy 2015-05-28T22:21:51-04:00
Wait.... If you were in centennial.... Were you by a pool named holly park pool or not? That will tell me if you were within two miles of me.
Epicderpguy 2015-05-28T22:27:40-04:00
And I'll never get off your lawn! Muhahaha
Micah "Zem the Mattress" Philson 2015-05-28T22:54:44-04:00
Sorry for the delay. And I don't remember that, but we did go to Casa Bonita. Not the same area, I know, just wanted to throw that out there. I think they were somewhere near "The Vista". good luck with that.
Epicderpguy 2015-05-28T23:15:05-04:00
Sounds like you had tons of fun.
Micah "Zem the Mattress" Philson 2015-05-28T23:16:21-04:00
And you had no part in it! MUHUAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!!
Backpacking was totally fun. Plus I had my birthday on a ginormous cliff just outside Colorado National Monument with a view almost as amazing as Kehlsteinhaus.
Darson 2015-05-28T23:43:17-04:00
The NSFW Deck is listed as Kickstarter exclusive in the campaign description.
But in the pledge manager only the secret surprise box is listed as limited.
So will the NSFW Deck be available in retail?
Micah "Zem the Mattress" Philson 2015-05-28T23:47:08-04:00
Darson, yes I'm pretty sure it will be. As far as I know, only the "Kickstarter Exclusive" box itself will be limited, both the decks should be retailed.
Guys guys! I finally got a shipment notice for my precious!!!!
Micah "Zem the Mattress" Philson 2015-05-29T00:34:59-04:00
Yay! The precious! Super happy fun time! And wine. Super happy fun wine time. Just like every day. Well, looks like this is gonna be my last comment as I leave, just after getting back from backpacking, for vacation all over Nebraska and South Dakota, so See y'all's's.
Geist de la Muerte Gatito 2015-05-29T00:41:58-04:00
Did someone mention the precious?
Brent 2015-05-29T01:13:39-04:00
MY PRECIOUS! MINE EYE TELLZ EWE!! AWL MINE!
Brent 2015-05-29T01:19:11-04:00
Oh...and I process payroll too. But no horses, prairies or John Waynezez. Maybe cuz Iz in Canada! Now MUSH!!!
Probably mid-July. But they are sending out a LOT of packages and sending things internationally so product arrival time will vary. Everyone should get the product in July one way or the other though.
I only JUST received mine. We've got at least 14 full hours of survey sending ahead people, so don't stress out just yet.
Geist de la Muerte Gatito 2015-05-29T10:27:09-04:00
The precious made it intact?? Well Done Creeper!
She simply got a notification. I still have time to sneak and purloin the precious for my plans of world domination and toast.
Jeff 2015-05-29T10:30:07-04:00
I got mine on Monday. It is a Karma Type thing. The more you want it, the later it comes. Every time you've checked e-mail for it, or posted that you didn't have it yet, it was delayed even more.
C.F. "The Ex-President" Heyns 2015-05-29T10:30:38-04:00
Drat, I shall have to send re-inforcements to guard the precious.
Jeff 2015-05-29T10:32:00-04:00
You mean send more people to their deaths...
Slava Fidel 2015-05-29T10:32:40-04:00
Yay, just got mine a few moments ago!
C.F. "The Ex-President" Heyns 2015-05-29T10:42:50-04:00
We don't send people, we send minions
Geist de la Muerte Gatito 2015-05-29T10:42:53-04:00
@Jeff: You speak the truth. I sent an email to the EK team saying I hadn't gotten my survey only to find that they did send it.
And I have placed my order for an extra NSFW deck. I play cards with adults more than I play with kids so I figured I'd need another naughty deck.
Geist de la Muerte Gatito 2015-05-29T10:44:32-04:00
Too late Ex. My Shattens will fetch the precious for me. And the good part? Bill Shatner is in D.C. right now for Awesome Con so I'm going to have him bless my minions so that they are guaranteed to succeed. *evil cackle*
Also Unraveled is so close LZ!... I can almost taste it. They're doing a twitch thingie atm. http://www.twitch.tv/arvaneleron/ Can't watch myself :(
Daryl Janisch 2015-05-29T16:11:44-04:00
QUESTION: Will the Exploding Kittens be out before GenCon (July 29th- August 2nd)? I want to take my EK with me even though I'm leaving on the 24th. If this is not possible, someone else just may have EK at the con too....
Geist de la Muerte Gatito 2015-05-29T16:21:50-04:00
@Daryl: Good question. With so many orders, it may take away to mail your cards to you. I'd say the last batch will go out no later than the last week of July but you never know. This project has been coming along in a timely manner but I don't think it's unreasonable to expect a small delay. Just keep your fingers crossed. I'm sure the team will do it's best to get the cards out to everyone quickly.
Niels 2015-05-29T16:28:23-04:00
This seems to be a spending puzzle. Either I lose 5 bucks or I can add another box, will lose that 5 bucks for additional shipping and have to pay for the additional box full price. Hmm.
fredrik høgestøl 2015-05-29T18:18:21-04:00
I paid 20usd for shipping when I pledged, but now the cost is 15usd. When are we being reimbursed for the overcharged shipping fee?
Brent Wilson 2015-05-29T18:57:05-04:00
Hi, my name is Brent Wilson and I backed the project but have since moved.... will my game forward to my new address? If not how do I contact you for a shipping change (I was supposed to get the game and NSFW expansion edition)
Chris Johnstone 2015-05-29T19:10:10-04:00
Brent, if you have not filled out your survey yet, with the old address, you are good. As long as your Survey Shipping Address is your current mailing address, you should be golden.
You never had to pay the shipping if you were in the US, they said that much. If it changed it changed, that's not really something that's on them as they do not control postage prices. There's no going back on a backer pledge.
The survey will allow you to add whatever shipping address your heart desires Brent. If you have not yet received it by tomorrow afternoon email them at Support@explodingkittens.com
Rob Usdin 2015-05-29T19:53:21-04:00
No backer survey - checked email, checked spam, nothing. Emailed support, no response.

Powers of Tesla 2015-05-29T21:19:51-04:00
I just got an acceptance email from Tesla Motors. I put myself on the wait list for a Tesla PowerWall battery system in early 2016. (Hopefully by then I'll have a house in which to install it)
If all goes as I hope, I will in the near-ish future have THE POWER OF TESLA within my grasp!
Geist de la Muerte Gatito 2015-05-29T22:25:14-04:00
@PoT: And what does the PowerWall battery system do?
Powers of Tesla 2015-05-29T22:55:42-04:00
The PowerWall battery is designed primarily to be used with a solar power system, it can be charged during the day and run an average sized home all night. There are two sizes coming to market, 7kW and 10kW. The 7kW is designed as a daily charge/discharge battery, the 10kW version is designed more to be an emergency power source for power outages. I was planning to purchase a generator (connected to the incoming natural gas) to run the house during power outages, but if the 10kW battery will keep essential services running for up to three days that should be sufficient. And if, in the future I am able to install the rooftop solar system I want I may be able to reduce my electric bills to zero, perhaps even get regular checks from the power company.
Geist de la Muerte Gatito 2015-05-29T22:58:15-04:00
Wow. That is really good PoT. How did you find out about this PowerWall in the first place?
Powers of Tesla 2015-05-29T23:18:29-04:00
I'm an ex-engineer and all 'round tech geek. Elon Musk (founder and CEO of both Tesla Motors and SpacEx) had a huge announcement at the beginning of the month.
Once an engineer, always an engineer. I'll here none of this talk about ex-s'!

Charlie Tan 2015-05-30T01:23:10-04:00
Why has the shipping to Singapore increased to 32 from 20 USD?
C.F. "The Ex-President" Heyns 2015-05-30T03:15:46-04:00
Hi Charlie, Shipping fees were based on an average for an overseas shipment to those countries.
Shipping also increases if you order more than 1 Deck. My 2 NSFW Decks cost $26 in shipping instead of $20. If you still have a problem you can always mail them at support@explodingkittens.com
Murat Güzeller 2015-05-30T03:31:18-04:00
Hey guys, sent you an e-mail too but will just leave it here. I had not received the survey, even though I had received every other e-mail. Nothing in spam and so on.
Good luck with the roll out
Murat Güzeller 2015-05-30T03:32:11-04:00
aaand got it...

Dave McIsaac 2015-05-30T05:16:20-04:00
Gmail does seem to be doing something stupid with the survey email - definitely an "exploding kittens" search of your inbox before getting a sad face.
Scott "Scorpion0x17" Hill 2015-05-30T06:43:52-04:00
I have a question regarding the Survey for Exploding Kittens:
I backed at the $35 level, and added $15 for postage to the UK, and I'm unsure which of the reward options I should be selecting in the Survey.
Is there any difference between selecting both the individual decks (standard and nsfw), and the combined package?
Jeff "Great Cane of Doom"™ Saxton 2015-05-30T07:42:26-04:00
EK survey finally in my inbox, timecoded at 05:11 CDT.
They probably sent them out well into Saturday, as many as there were.
Olivier Giguère-Durand 2015-05-30T11:24:50-04:00
Double shipping cost because I payed for 2 double packs (normal+nsfw) wasn't pleasant, especially since there was nothing mentioned about it during the kickstarter. Other than that, survey received and done.
They said that extra stuff would increase shipping. Also, that's common sense. That's how postage is calculated.
C.F. "The Ex-President" Heyns 2015-05-30T12:49:34-04:00
Hi Scott "Scorpion0x17" Hill,
Selecting the combined package will ensure that the decks arrive together in one shipment. Ordering the decks separately will result in two items being shipped.
The combined package is really the combined package. You get everything from both options in just that one. Including the surprise box.
C.F. "The Ex-President" Heyns 2015-05-30T13:55:03-04:00
Surveyed and filed. Waiting for kitten deployment. Tuna cans at the ready.
C.F. "The Ex-President" Heyns 2015-05-30T15:45:06-04:00
Everyone else having a good weekend so far?
Geist de la Muerte Gatito 2015-05-30T16:06:18-04:00
It's 90 something degrees outside. I nearly melted on my way back home. Got the air conditioner and fan blasting.
It's a good thing I'm going to Awesome Con tomorrow. Lots of games and other stuff to see and do. Plus it's indoors so I won't be a big pile of sweat. I'll post some pics on the KC forum later in the week.
C.F. "The Ex-President" Heyns 2015-05-30T16:15:42-04:00
Well, we are busy swimming in 12 degrees C weather. Rain + wind.

Got the survey email early this morning as previously noted, but had to do my son's High School Graduation ceremony today. Just got back home, and duly filled out and sent the survey. The countdown to booming kittehs begins.
C.F. "The Ex-President" Heyns 2015-05-30T16:43:39-04:00
I need those explosions to keep me warm through this winter.
Geist de la Muerte Gatito 2015-05-30T16:46:08-04:00

Ugh! How many times do I have to tell you people?! I have no idea! Now get off my property!
Also, derp, I thought my cousins whom I stayed with were in Aurora, but they live in Centennial, so chances are I was within a mile or so of your home romping grounds. Good thing I missed you and wasn't crushed by your whaliness.
Wow that was close. Heck I probably was within a couple of feet of you but you would have never noticed because science.
Wait.... If you were in centennial.... Were you by a pool named holly park pool or not? That will tell me if you were within two miles of me.
And I'll never get off your lawn! Muhahaha
Sorry for the delay. And I don't remember that, but we did go to Casa Bonita. Not the same area, I know, just wanted to throw that out there. I think they were somewhere near "The Vista". good luck with that.
Sounds like you had tons of fun.

Precioussss! I want demos, unboxings, and a toast so I can order one!
BAKKA SURVAY!!!! Google listed it as an unimportant email though, Google is full of shit.
Survey Submitted! What is the ETA for this?
Probably mid-July. But they are sending out a LOT of packages and sending things internationally so product arrival time will vary. Everyone should get the product in July one way or the other though.
AND OMG THE PRECIOUS IS COMING!!!!!
I'm still waiting for my Survey :'(
How are our lovely kittens being sent internationally? Is it by courier? I'm in Abu Dhabi and don't want my kittens confiscated for being too awesome.
How many of the Corps are still waiting on a survey?
I have yet to receive mine.
I'm still waiting on my survey, PoT. I'm backer #47441; so I suspect these aren't being sent out in sequential order either.
I just got mine, so we are getting there.
The precious made it intact?? Well Done Creeper!
Nevermind the power of F5 saves the day!
I only JUST received mine. We've got at least 14 full hours of survey sending ahead people, so don't stress out just yet.

Also this (Unraveled) is running it's count down:getting close to both the end and it's goals. I personally really like where this game is headed, and encourage people to give it a glance if nothing else. https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/696564/unraveled-tale-of-the-shipbreakers-daughter/comments
So quite today....
Good morning corps!
Evening BaKhan!
Morning-ish.
Howdy BaKhan! I just got back from lunch. Did you get your survey yet?
Bacon does sound really good right now too...
BACON

Did someone say BACON!?
It's Friday so I'll trade bacon in for booze.
I just filled out the backer survey!!!
Congrats LZ
