The OOTS Reprint Drive at Kickstarter: Pledge now to get exclusive rewards!

[Tanuki Tales]

Assuming Rich is cool with the subtracting $22 for SS&DT, then yes, $5 + 9x$4 = $41 - $22 = $19. So total pledge $314 assuming no postage.

He already removed and made a note about it a week ago, I just want to make sure my math is right.

Thanks.

Any bets on where this will end in terms of # of backers?

Distinct or Raw Total?
Tough to say for distinct, since we know that people have multiple accounts covering multiple award levels.

Raw total, close to 14500, probably.

[The Glyphstone]

Less than 5,000 dollars to go and 15 hours to earn it in. We're getting our Year of The Monsters for certain.

[dakameleon]

$1,136,095 as at 9.03 PM EST, exactly 15 hours to go.... $1,155,000 looking likely!

[MammonAzrael]

Now down to 14 hours and $1325 an hour for 2000%

[heronbpv]

W00t, I participated!! \o/\o/\o/
Hopefully there will be no last minute problems with the credit cards and stuff

[silvadel]

Anyone who doesnt at least throw in the tenner will miss so much information that they will probably regret it down the line.

[Crisis21]

I think we're currently in 2nd place for most backers on a project.

[0Megabyte]

Question. I couldn't see mention of this, but I'm unsure what this particular reward means:

Pledge $14:

"As above, plus a second Roy Greenhilt magnet is added to your package."

It's a limited reward, and it's right below the broke-ass student special. Is this related to that, or what? It's the same price as the second magnet one.

[Savannah]

No, it's not related to the student special. The "as above" refers to the original $10 pledge.

[Crisis21]

That pledge was made long before the 'broke ass student' pledge. It was limited because pledgers might mistake it as an unlimited version of the 'broke ass student' pledge.

[CloakedDancer]

So we get the extra monsters... probably the 2000%. Are there any other goals? Or is this simply everything that's left?

[Yendor]

Achievement Unlocked: The Monster Mash (A Monster for All Seasons)

[Sethala]

Achievement Unlocked: Monsters, Monsters Everywhere! Raise enough to have monster mini sheets released four times throughout the year.

Edit: Dangit, ninja'd

[CoffeeIncluded]

So Rich, now that you actually have a million dollars (if only until the bills come), what are you going to do with it until then?

Yeah raw total was what I meant.

[MReav]

What should the next achievement be? Overkill Much?

[Gwynfrid]

New reward added - sharing the fundraising wealth.

Pledge $750 or more
0 Backers • Limited Reward (5 of 5 remaining)

WINK, WINK: As the $575 Whole Story and a Box of Crayon reward above. Coincidentally, I will also be making five completely unrelated $750 donations to one or more of my favorite charities, and I may ask the backers help me in choosing from the following: World Wildlife Fund, Plan USA, Child's Play, Nature Conservancy, The Humane Society of the United States, or Doctors Without Borders.
Estimated Delivery: May 2012

[turkishproverb]

two of those are already gone.

[Mr._Michael]

Dangit... one of the $170 signed print only paks became available for about 15 seconds. Took me 20 to log in, scroll down and hit enter. Ah well... a few hours of lurking left. Right now I'm at $200 with a $25 prize pak. Yeah... a little left over for coloring book, patch, part of a Cintiq, etc...

[Incom]

^^^HSUS (Consider donating to a local humane society or shelter instead. They'll be much better stewards of your donation than HSUS. Trust me, I'm related to an aspiring vet, she's up on this stuff.) Sorry, felt obligated to vent on that.

For my part, I caved and am getting myself SOD now.

[MammonAzrael]

Now down to 13 hours and $883 an hour for 2000%! It just keeps dropping, it seriously looks like we'll make it!

[dakameleon]

Yep, $1,145,963 at time of posting... so $9000 in the last hour, which is INSANE.

(also, a note: the time remaining there is "whole hours", so 13 hours actually means 13 hours x mins...)

Good Guy Rich leverages the power of Greyskull mad fans the backers... awesome!

[Forbiddenwar]

Just let go a signed print for a crayon drawing!

[Flame of Anor]

Yep, $1,145,963 at time of posting... so $9000 in the last hour, which is INSANE.

I'm just wondering whether we'll get to the next $100k level, so the consecutive-comics run will be longer...

Is there some Kickstarter rule that's the reason he's beating around the bush with that description?

[ZombieMaster]

The pace has been so insane today, now I'm worried that the kickstarter is being trolled by someone who is creating false accounts and pledging, and they'll pull out at the end :-(

[Porthos]

I'm just wondering whether we'll get to the next $100k level, so the consecutive-comics run will be longer...

As of 7:30pm PST:

$3,831 per hour to have Rich add TWO extra strips for OOTS Everyday Encore.
$51,710 needed to have Rich add TWO extra strips for OOTS Everyday Encore

It'll be close, I think. The main reason I am hesitant is that I don't know how the Mid-6am EST time period will do. I.e. when UK/Europe/Asia/Australia are center stage. Last Day Mania should help things there.

But well enough?

We'll see. Personally I'm hoping for something of a buffer. If it can get down to 2.5K per hour I'll feel a heck of a lot more secure about things...

(NOTE: There's also the worry about failed pledges. The end total might just be close enough for that to matter...)

[Forbiddenwar]

it just occurred to me that the crayon drawing is ANY oots character, not just The order of the stick five.
And now I'm looking at the art print going How the hell am I going to decide?

[heronbpv]

5k until 2000%
gogogo!
