Emailed GameofKittens Support and Blackbox support, neither of them helped me yet, its been 2 days, gameofKittens support said that they "think" my order is shipped, but I have no blackbox mail with tracking number.
Blackbox support didn't replied yet.
I'm assuming it's not shipped, dont know what do. :/
Eric 'Trinkets&Nopes' Baumgarten 2015-08-06T15:57:19-04:00
@sur0x be patient, but be vigilant. Give it a couple days, but then I would contact Blackbox again if you haven't heard from them at that point yet.
Eric 'Trinkets&Nopes' Baumgarten 2015-08-06T15:59:27-04:00
I really wish I had a ButterUp knife for tonight. Hopefully they will do another KS project.

My box was supposed to be delivered days ago but fedex rejected as incorrect address even though the email sent to me was correct...I suspect you guys cut off my apt number on the fedex label....I've sent two emails with no reply from you guys...Can someone reply to me?

Hang in there buddy

Ugh the shipping by Fed Ex Post is atrocious, they leave it to the 'local' post office in California to be delivered to me (I live in Hawaii) date was dropped off at the 'local' post office August 1st . . . The logistics of the shipper is confusing it would have been just easier to have sent it out by priority mail or even regular mail.
Eric 'Trinkets&Nopes' Baumgarten 2015-08-06T17:02:01-04:00
@Jay, you won't get any replies for what you are seeking answers too, here in the comments section.

If the issues are related to SHIPPING/FULFILLMENT (wrong address, wrong/incomplete order, wrong packing slip, etc.) backers can get more immediate help by reaching out to our fulfillment help team directly: explodingkittens@support.blackbox.cool
For those sending multiple emails...that will just slow things down as they will be checking the emails, thinking they've seen that before, looking back through the emails, realizing "Yes, we did see this concerned backers email before", and taking that extra time to move along the lines of emails that need to be dealt with for the first time.
Jay Kavanagh 2015-08-06T17:03:00-04:00
@Eric Already did that but thanks for the info, now i gotta just sit and wait...i was hoping to stop the box from being returned but i guess that wont happen.
Eric 'Trinkets&Nopes' Baumgarten 2015-08-06T17:04:35-04:00
Agree with GM.
If you have already sent an email or 2 to the correct address to deal with your problem, more emails will not help the situation. Patience must be shown. Heck, it might even take a week or longer, but you will get your problems solved.
Jay Kavanagh 2015-08-06T17:05:56-04:00
I sent one email to blackbox and the other email to the support address themselves. If the same people are checking both...oh well don't provide both to the public then.
Eric 'Trinkets&Nopes' Baumgarten 2015-08-06T17:06:45-04:00
@Jay, yeah, that would have been great if that could happen. Hope you get it soon!!
Eric 'Trinkets&Nopes' Baumgarten 2015-08-06T17:20:30-04:00
@Ryan, ouch. Looks like you've been FedEx'd (I'm totally trademarking tha!)
Wes Ewing 2015-08-06T17:33:20-04:00
Picked up mine in Vancouver Canada today! Hooray :)
Scott Hinckley 2015-08-06T17:36:02-04:00
No confirmation of shipping email and no responses from either of the support emails in 48hrs, not even and automated "we got your email". :-(
Scott Bode 2015-08-06T17:36:29-04:00
Was playing some 'splodin kittens and I have a question that some players disagreed on: can you Nope a Defuse? And when you have a pair of cats, and are going to grab a card out a players hand, should the other player be able to shuffle their hand before you randomly take one?
Lord Zombitten 2015-08-06T17:40:42-04:00
Scott, you can NOT Nope a defuse. I believe the rules still say that. Shuffling a hand before a random card is taken is perfectly fine, though.
Scott Hinckley 2015-08-06T17:53:03-04:00
Woo Hoo! *NOW* I've got an email from EK that they are checking with BB on my shipping :-)
Hans Honebecke 2015-08-06T18:02:27-04:00
Just picked up mine from a DHL service point (@Netherlands)... Shweeet!
Scot 2015-08-06T18:08:08-04:00
Hey guys, just wanted to say thanks for everything in this kickstarter. I've been burned a few times on kickstarter campaigns and this by far was the best experience i have had so far. From being overly informative as well as being quick and delivering a fantastic product made this awesome from start to finish.
Sabrina Love 2015-08-06T18:23:43-04:00
Hey! I love my new Exploding Kittens game except my "surprise" doesn't work. :( I looked to the FB page & tried opening it near light but it's still not working. Maybe the sensor got knocked out of place. Can you help me please? Thanks!
mdl780 2015-08-06T18:32:11-04:00
A little surprise was delivered to my door today! The quality of the box and cards are amazing! The surprise was amazing! My personalized greeting was amazing! Seriously. I think I'm going to frame it.
Micah "Zem the Mattress" Philson 2015-08-06T18:36:44-04:00
md, I felt like that too. But then I realized I couldn't play 10 games a day like I have since I got mine.
Hello again. I really haven't been on much recently have I?! Like 3 comments a day! I either haven't been at my computer or have been gone entirely for the last several days. Maybe soon I'll get back into the swing of things and be here regularly dozens of times per day again. Not fair, LZ, for doing this and resetting all the work I did in trying to catch up to you!
Sabrina Sison 2015-08-06T18:37:33-04:00
My package was marked as delivered 8/1, I contact BlackBox shortly thereafter to let them know it had not been delivered and I still haven't heard back :(
Lord Zombitten 2015-08-06T18:44:40-04:00
Zem, it's perfectly fair
Lord Zombitten 2015-08-06T18:45:43-04:00
And the Machete Order makes perfect sense after you read his explanation on his blog. You should look it up
Micah "Zem the Mattress" Philson 2015-08-06T19:09:30-04:00
I have, I just happen to be apparently the only nerd who likes the movies in the current order. Though I do agree on the 4 to 3 order, not 1 to 6. And 7 will have to try really damn hard to even exist in my mind.
Lord Zombitten 2015-08-06T19:13:19-04:00
It's not that I hate Episode I, I just agree that it's contribution to the saga is minimal at best. I also can't stand Jarjar.
I'm optimistic about VII
Micah "Zem the Mattress" Philson 2015-08-06T19:15:41-04:00
I hope Jarjar makes a cameo! Or his great-great-great grandson. And who cares if it doesn't contribute anything but Liam Neeson? It's still a pretty good movie.
Lord Zombitten 2015-08-06T19:19:15-04:00
But they kill Neeson! The two most important characters are killed, and only one of them is ever even mentioned again. And he's only mentioned once! Episode I does have lts place, yeah. That is as a footnote to the rest of the saga, as it was made. I'll probably show my kids Episode I after I finish showing them the others
Lord Zombitten 2015-08-06T19:20:39-04:00
And if Jarjar makes a cameo, it needs to be of him catching a bowcaster bolt with his face
Lord Zombitten 2015-08-06T19:23:29-04:00
For the record, I was a staunch supporter of the 4 to 3 order until I read all of Machete's blog post about it. When I first heard the order, I thought it was bonkers
Micah "Zem the Mattress" Philson 2015-08-06T19:23:36-04:00
I would show the original order first, just for backstory and reference. See, it does include Anikin's origin, though it's not critical to knowing who he and (SPOILER!) Darth Vader are. Then after they know the whole story, I'd go showing them the more detailed and rearranged one so they know what changes to the original story that everyone else knows and how it's better or worse. Besides, they get to see them all twice before the new one! I hope Midichlorians make a comeback just to screw with the fanbois.
Lord Zombitten 2015-08-06T19:29:45-04:00
I would agree if not for the part where Luke and Leia are revealed to be brother and sister at the end of 3 being a big deal if you've already seen 4 and 5. It's not a big deal if the reveal is in 6.
Lord Zombitten 2015-08-06T19:35:54-04:00
Also, I don't have a problem with midichlorians. I think it's funn that some people think they're never mentioned again after 1, but Palpatine talks about them in 3 when he's telling Anakin about Darth Plagueis
Micah "Zem the Mattress" Philson 2015-08-06T19:41:11-04:00
Oh yeah, he does. Plagueis is my favorite Darth. He also kills Samuel L Jackson, so...
Maybe if you're famous, you shouldn't be in a Star Wars. Wait a minute, Harrison Ford has gotten way more famous since he starred in them... HOLY SHIT, THEY'RE GONNA KILL OFF OLD HAN SOLO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Lord Zombitten 2015-08-06T19:41:31-04:00
I mean, how else to you explain why the force is strong with some, but not others?
Lord Zombitten 2015-08-06T19:42:42-04:00
No, Palpatine is Sidious. Plagueis was Sidious' master
Eric 'Trinkets&Nopes' Baumgarten 2015-08-06T19:43:31-04:00
It depends who's on top.
Lord Zombitten 2015-08-06T19:44:30-04:00
Trinkets, that would explain why Sidious killed Plagueis, eh?
Micah "Zem the Mattress" Philson 2015-08-06T19:45:27-04:00
No, I know, I just forgot to separate the statements. I meant the chancellor killed samuel L jackson as well near that scene.
Eric 'Trinkets&Nopes' Baumgarten 2015-08-06T19:45:53-04:00
Lol, no. About how strong the force is with someone
Eric 'Trinkets&Nopes' Baumgarten 2015-08-06T19:46:37-04:00
Yeah he did, it was awesome
Lord Zombitten 2015-08-06T19:46:51-04:00
Oh, and Zem, I saw that you said Jarjar was annoying in an endearing kind of way. I disagree. I think he's obnoxious in an 'I want to burn your face with fire and acid and fill your body cavities Witteman fire ants' kind of way.
Lord Zombitten 2015-08-06T19:48:55-04:00
Grrr! I hate it when KS eats my comments!
Lord Zombitten 2015-08-06T19:50:02-04:00
Damn autocorrect! How do you get Witteman from with?!
Lord Zombitten 2015-08-06T19:50:29-04:00
Where's that chicken cup?
Stalvos 2015-08-06T19:50:55-04:00
What email dies the shipping notice come from ?
Micah "Zem the Mattress" Philson 2015-08-06T19:51:24-04:00
I think he's annoying, but he's a character. I didn't even hate Palpatine for killing off a guy who used a purple lightsaber, the racist bastard. ;)
Micah "Zem the Mattress" Philson 2015-08-06T19:51:49-04:00
And not that annoying, just slightly. Makes him recognizable.
Lord Zombitten 2015-08-06T19:55:07-04:00
Stalvos, the email comes from Blackbox
Lord Zombitten 2015-08-06T19:57:15-04:00
Being a character doesn't make it okay to be annoying. If I want to speak the languages of Violence and Brutality to a character every time he's onscreen, the writer did something wrong. Unless the goal was to make everyone hate him...
Lord Zombitten 2015-08-06T19:59:47-04:00
Han, Leia, Jabba, Greedo, R2-D2, Luke, Chewie, Tarkin, Palpatine, Bob Fortuna, Akbar (I could go on and on) are all recognizable without being annoying
Eric 'Trinkets&Nopes' Baumgarten 2015-08-06T20:00:34-04:00
Hehe , is that Bib's cousin?
Eric 'Trinkets&Nopes' Baumgarten 2015-08-06T20:01:12-04:00
And what about the most likeable character of all?
Lando!!!!
Lord Zombitten 2015-08-06T20:03:43-04:00
Damn autocorrect!
Eric 'Trinkets&Nopes' Baumgarten 2015-08-06T20:04:02-04:00
Bob Fortuna's used sand skiff imporium.
Quite a drop off from his cousin's job of interpreter for Jabba.
Lord Zombitten 2015-08-06T20:04:12-04:00
Gotta love Billy Dee!
Lord Zombitten 2015-08-06T20:05:56-04:00
Butler.
Eric 'Trinkets&Nopes' Baumgarten 2015-08-06T20:05:57-04:00
JarJar was there for the little kids. That was as the movies progressed through the years, all those little tykes would be growing up and spending all their allowances on jar jar action figures and stuff.
Lord Zombitten 2015-08-06T20:09:59-04:00
But, but I liked Star Wars as a kid, without any freaking Jarjar!
Lord Zombitten 2015-08-06T20:10:54-04:00
Tonight, it's Empire Strikes Back
Eric 'Trinkets&Nopes' Baumgarten 2015-08-06T20:12:01-04:00
As we all did. But the profitability of it made that idea look really good to some people.
Eric 'Trinkets&Nopes' Baumgarten 2015-08-06T20:12:28-04:00
Loves me some Hoth.
Lord Zombitten 2015-08-06T20:13:08-04:00
I still like my fire ant idea
Eric 'Trinkets&Nopes' Baumgarten 2015-08-06T20:42:33-04:00
Yeah, me too.
Micah "Zem the Mattress" Philson 2015-08-06T21:06:40-04:00
Trinkets, the most likeable is Lando's assistant, whom we call either "headphone guy" or "Bob". He's the one with the headphones that flash every 2 seconds and he points around occasionally. He contributes more to the stories than Yoda! I love that guy!
Lord Zombitten 2015-08-06T21:13:28-04:00
Blasphemy!
Micah "Zem the Mattress" Philson 2015-08-06T21:18:27-04:00
Parents are in Japan visiting our most recent exchange student and his family. So just two teenage guys and one other who may as well be a teenager and moved back out yesterday.just living here . Guess what we've subsisted on almost entirely. If you guessed pizza, macaroni, and ramen, you're mostly correct, though we know some additions and spices to make them all extra good. Well, the pizza and cheese sticks are from a gas station near here, but it's really good as well.
Micah "Zem the Mattress" Philson 2015-08-06T21:20:10-04:00
Eric 'Trinkets&Nopes' Baumgarten 2015-08-06T21:20:52-04:00
Don't change the subject, Lobot is nowhere near as likeable as Lando.
Eric 'Trinkets&Nopes' Baumgarten 2015-08-06T21:22:09-04:00
Ugnaughts are me likeable than him
Eric 'Trinkets&Nopes' Baumgarten 2015-08-06T21:23:31-04:00

The debate's tonight?
Remiam 2015-08-06T21:33:16-04:00
This is going to be like mixing snickers with shingle.
Remiam 2015-08-06T21:34:06-04:00
Actually snickers with shinola.
Eric 'Trinkets&Nopes' Baumgarten 2015-08-06T21:38:43-04:00
Yep, it's on fox news
Eric 'Trinkets&Nopes' Baumgarten 2015-08-06T21:39:51-04:00
@Greg, they aren't very quick in responding. Be patient and try not to flood their inbox with more emails. They will fix your problem.
Eric 'Trinkets&Nopes' Baumgarten 2015-08-06T21:40:56-04:00
Ted Cruz looks more like someone from Saturday night live playing a politician than a real politician.
Lord Zombitten 2015-08-06T21:43:50-04:00
Oh, I wish I had tv now. I wanted to watch the circus. Maybe I'll be able to watch it online tomorrow...

Bob is the greatest pointer in the history of fingers, trinkets! Take that back! ;)
Micah "Zem the Mattress" Philson 2015-08-06T21:51:30-04:00
I say nobody running is worth electing. Let's overthrow our representative republic and replace it with Douglas Adam's government from the Hitchhiker's Guide: The president of the galaxy was really only there to distract everyone from the real power. Only like 3 people knew who had the real power, and when they found out, the only person who made every single decision like who won wars even was the perfect choice, but it's too long to explain who and why here, so you'll have to look it up if you can read that part online. Basically, nobody who want's power should be given any. The ideal leader is someone who doesn't want to lead or doesn't know they're doing it.
Eric 'Trinkets&Nopes' Baumgarten 2015-08-06T21:53:45-04:00

Ok, not that good, but he learned from the best! At least, he must've learned from E.T. judging by his talent. Why isn't pointing and sitting there with flashing headphones an olympic sport?

You can order it online, Trinkets! I'm not sure about them directly, but I think the MoMa store is selling them now.
Wha????!!!?!!
I can haz one??
Thanks for the info, Creeper!

Ugh the shipping by Fed Ex Post is atrocious, they leave it to the 'local' post office in California to be delivered to me (I live in Hawaii) date was dropped off at the 'local' post office August 1st . . .

I hope Jarjar makes a cameo! Or his great-great-great grandson. And who cares if it doesn't contribute anything but Liam Neeson? It's still a pretty good movie.
But they kill Neeson! The two most important characters are killed, and only one of them is ever even mentioned again. And he's only mentioned once! Episode I does have lts place, yeah. That is as a footnote to the rest of the saga, as it was made. I'll probably show my kids Episode I after I finish showing them the others
And if Jarjar makes a cameo, it needs to be of him catching a bowcaster bolt with his face
For the record, I was a staunch supporter of the 4 to 3 order until I read all of Machete's blog post about it. When I first heard the order, I thought it was bonkers
I would show the original order first, just for backstory and reference. See, it does include Anikin's origin, though it's not critical to knowing who he and (SPOILER!) Darth Vader are. Then after they know the whole story, I'd go showing them the more detailed and rearranged one so they know what changes to the original story that everyone else knows and how it's better or worse. Besides, they get to see them all twice before the new one! I hope Midichlorians make a comeback just to screw with the fanbois.
I would agree if not for the part where Luke and Leia are revealed to be brother and sister at the end of 3 being a big deal if you've already seen 4 and 5. It's not a big deal if the reveal is in 6.
Also, I don't have a problem with midichlorians. I think it's funn that some people think they're never mentioned again after 1, but Palpatine talks about them in 3 when he's telling Anakin about Darth Plagueis
Oh yeah, he does. Plagueis is my favorite Darth. He also kills Samuel L Jackson, so...
Maybe if you're famous, you shouldn't be in a Star Wars. Wait a minute, Harrison Ford has gotten way more famous since he starred in them... HOLY SHIT, THEY'RE GONNA KILL OFF OLD HAN SOLO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I mean, how else to you explain why the force is strong with some, but not others?
No, Palpatine is Sidious. Plagueis was Sidious' master
It depends who's on top.
Trinkets, that would explain why Sidious killed Plagueis, eh?
No, I know, I just forgot to separate the statements. I meant the chancellor killed samuel L jackson as well near that scene.
Lol, no. About how strong the force is with someone
Yeah he did, it was awesome
Oh, and Zem, I saw that you said Jarjar was annoying in an endearing kind of way. I disagree. I think he's obnoxious in an 'I want to burn your face with fire and acid and fill your body cavities Witteman fire ants' kind of way.
Grrr! I hate it when KS eats my comments!
Damn autocorrect! How do you get Witteman from with?!
Where's that chicken cup?
What email dies the shipping notice come from ?
I think he's annoying, but he's a character. I didn't even hate Palpatine for killing off a guy who used a purple lightsaber, the racist bastard. ;)
And not that annoying, just slightly. Makes him recognizable.
Stalvos, the email comes from Blackbox
Being a character doesn't make it okay to be annoying. If I want to speak the languages of Violence and Brutality to a character every time he's onscreen, the writer did something wrong. Unless the goal was to make everyone hate him...
Han, Leia, Jabba, Greedo, R2-D2, Luke, Chewie, Tarkin, Palpatine, Bob Fortuna, Akbar (I could go on and on) are all recognizable without being annoying
Hehe , is that Bib's cousin?
And what about the most likeable character of all?
Lando!!!!
Damn autocorrect!
Bob Fortuna's used sand skiff imporium.
Quite a drop off from his cousin's job of interpreter for Jabba.
Gotta love Billy Dee!
Butler.
JarJar was there for the little kids. That was as the movies progressed through the years, all those little tykes would be growing up and spending all their allowances on jar jar action figures and stuff.
But, but I liked Star Wars as a kid, without any freaking Jarjar!
Tonight, it's Empire Strikes Back
As we all did. But the profitability of it made that idea look really good to some people.
Loves me some Hoth.
I still like my fire ant idea
Yeah, me too.
Trinkets, the most likeable is Lando's assistant, whom we call either "headphone guy" or "Bob". He's the one with the headphones that flash every 2 seconds and he points around occasionally. He contributes more to the stories than Yoda! I love that guy!
Blasphemy!
Parents are in Japan visiting our most recent exchange student and his family. So just two teenage guys and one other who may as well be a teenager and moved back out yesterday.just living here . Guess what we've subsisted on almost entirely. If you guessed pizza, macaroni, and ramen, you're mostly correct, though we know some additions and spices to make them all extra good. Well, the pizza and cheese sticks are from a gas station near here, but it's really good as well.
Here's Bob, the international man of mystery, himself in action: http://www.i-mockery.com/minimocks/empirestrikesback/lobot-point.gif
Don't change the subject, Lobot is nowhere near as likeable as Lando.
Ugnaughts are me likeable than him

Trump in this debate.....best TV ever!!
Blackbox is ignoring my emails about them shipping my package to an old address, really dissapointed in their fulfillment service.
The debate's tonight?
This is going to be like mixing snickers with shingle.
Actually snickers with shinola.
Yep, it's on fox news
@Greg, they aren't very quick in responding. Be patient and try not to flood their inbox with more emails. They will fix your problem.
Ted Cruz looks more like someone from Saturday night live playing a politician than a real politician.
Oh, I wish I had tv now. I wanted to watch the circus. Maybe I'll be able to watch it online tomorrow...
Bob is the greatest pointer in the history of fingers, trinkets! Take that back! ;)
I say nobody running is worth electing. Let's overthrow our representative republic and replace it with Douglas Adam's government from the Hitchhiker's Guide: The president of the galaxy was really only there to distract everyone from the real power. Only like 3 people knew who had the real power, and when they found out, the only person who made every single decision like who won wars even was the perfect choice, but it's too long to explain who and why here, so you'll have to look it up if you can read that part online. Basically, nobody who want's power should be given any. The ideal leader is someone who doesn't want to lead or doesn't know they're doing it.

Are you sure Zem?
Ok, not that good, but he learned from the best! At least, he must've learned from E.T. judging by his talent. Why isn't pointing and sitting there with flashing headphones an olympic sport?
Throw in some beers, and that's my friday night!!
I personally like Ice Cream Man from Empire Strikes Back. If I have to explain, the joke ain't worth it.
