    Let's hope Visa knwos what they are talking about:

    Because I don't want to screw this up and I assume I am going to fulfill at least one person's "I'm a Helper!" gene:

    If I order the:
    Full set of Books ($222)
    Commemorative Patch ($4)
    Sticky Shtick Cards ($6)
    Extra Coloring Book ($5)

    but pay $250, I get:

    Full Set of Books
    Commemorative Patch
    Sticky Shtick Cards
    Roy Greenhilt Magnet
    3 Coloring Books
    2 Hitpoint Pads
    2 Sets of Stickers
    1 Art Print (This is what I worry over, because I see it on the chart, but I can't find where he say it in text)

    Here's your answer from Update #6:

    But don't worry if you want to a bunch of books and the print, because we're including one free for every pledge above $250.

    I might send a message just to be sure that he's looking at amount pledged and not reward selected (or pledge $252 just in case he is indeed only checking reward selected; that's how much it'd be if you paid the $15 add-on cost for the print).

    Folks, it's 250 and above. No need to do 251 or 252. Rich has already said as much in numerous places.

    Well crud, now I have to make a second pledge of $251 to go with my $250 pledge just to get a free art print!

    Unless I am just willfully misinterpreting you...

    Meh

    Well. We're already at 1800%, and we know an update is coming, and currently it's night in North America, and Kickstarters usually have pretty good last days.

    Nope, 2000% is in the bag. The question still is, can we beat the elevated dock?

    I certainly hope that is what you are doing. But in case you are not, if you pledge $250 total, you are getting a free print. Even if you did select a $222 reward.

    Might want to mention it on the survey you'll get just to be sure, mind. Might as well, since you have to list the extras your getting there anyways...

    We'd need to average $13,084.44/hr from now until the end of the drive to do it.

    They really should sort out whatever Amazon.de's issue with non-credit cards is though.
    they would also need to pay Paypal about 3% of the transaction - so if that was the case people using paypal would be paying Kickstarter 3%, Amazon 3% and paypal 3%

    Here is a picture taken from my cell phone of the last update chart.

    My Monitor is 24 inches mounted sideways at a resolution of 1920 by 1080 and I still had to hit F11 to get the entire chart in

Of course, it's seemed "unlikely" that we would get to several goals so far, and we've smashed through them all, so who knows...
    Well, on the way to 2000% we can hit original goal of $57,750 + $1M, so that'd make the next goal to be hit:

    $1,057,750

    So, $7,384 to hit the + $1M goal!

    It is a nice round number! Lots of zeros, one one.

    Assuming Rich doesn't put up 50 $10,000 pledges that sell out or anything similar, I think the last natural (as in not set by Rich) line we can reach is 2000% (20 times) original target funding, namely $1,155,000, which we are Roughly $102,900 away from. Let's go for it!

    I assume it does, but does the $94 box include the option of adding DStP?

    It doesn't include it in the descriptive text, but I assume that's just because it hadn't been released as a prize at the time the reward was created.

    If it does, it'd be the perfect option for me (considering I have SoD and SSaDT and am thinking (not finalised yet; my common sense may yet triumph) of upping my pledge to get the rest of the books.

    So if anyone has seen the Word of God on the subject, it'd be greatly apreciated .

    [edit] D'oh . My question was specifically answered in the text. My fault.

    The spreadsheet has a final projection of $1,099,132, which would be $56,000 short of 2000%.

    On another note, we're now $997 short of the +$1M...

    There is no need to email rich. You'll be contacted at the end of the drive with an email survey. That is where you will put in your mailing address and list all the extras you paid extra for.

    So what's the next goal? I'm sure 1.1 is doable with 27 hours left.

    2000% would probably be a good idea.
