    A free print for big pledgers, I like.
    I wonder if I dare to ask for a possible signing of it. It ould almost look like I robbed Rich and stuffed his things in my house. The police will just say "well, its got his signature on it all - can't be much clearer than that".

    LOVE the latest update! I have loved that poster forever, and the notion of having it in a smaller size with nice backing is just perfect.

    Alright, I've made a second pledge with a second account (am I allowed to do that?; if not, I'll gladly let go of my order).

    So, I should be getting a signed poster. And (hopefully), a chance at snagging another autographed book.

    Sadly, looks like that'll be the end for me in this pledge, I can't really give more than $200.

    It's a bit strange that I've been surfing around idly and stuff, checking maybe every half hour to hour but still managed to load the site within a minute of the posting of updates. It's happened three times now (first and last 2).

    Might be breaking some rule of kickstarter, what do I know?
    Morally? up to you really.
    (as long as duplicate accounts don't hog all the limited rewards I'd personally be fine with it)

    I want the poster, but I'd never put it up. I don't even want the poster, but I want to have it, even though I don't want it.

    This pledge drive is doing weird stuff to my brain.

    I'm a bit shocked I managed to snag a signed poster now.

    There were only about 5 left when I clicked to do the pledge and I was sure I wasn't going to make it.

    According to the Kickstart FAQ, they will take a 5% cut, and amazon another 3-5%, so there's that. And IIRC, the UK cards did take a bite as well, so you may be right.

    In another order of business, after a quick consultation with my SO, I've upped my pledge enough to get a signed poster. Given I already had all the books, I couldn't justify to myself buying them again just for the autograph, but this is a great compromise (there goes my "entertainment" budget for the month, though)

    Rich, thank you.

    Seriously, you could have rested on your laurels after we destroyed the first target, or limited the new rewards to just new books, but twice now you have added new stuff that makes me think my pledge was even more worth it. I knew I was going to get the fridge magnet and the pdfs on top of the actual reward, and then you added the Julio Scoundrel story. I was happy with this. And now you put a poster in as well for the high pledgers? You spoil us!

    Those signed prints sold out fast. Fastest sellout of any limited offer, I think.

    And there are a new set of goals, everyone:

    $222,000 Mystery Prize #2
    $255,000 DStP added to Pledge Points
    $264,570 DStP minimum print run
    $283,120 DStP full print run
    $300,000 Mystery Prize #3

    It had been going at around $500 - $600 per hour before the last update (which is still hecka awesome, BTW. Just not OMGWT*BBQ awesome). With the added boost of the new poster (seriously that thing is gonna do gangbusters) and ornaments, we should see a good uptick until 9pm tonight. Then it's just a case of how close it is to $222k to see how long it takes to get there.

    ETA: Oh yes. Those ornaments and posters are causing the blessed thing to explode again.

    Pretty sure there's been something like $6,000 to $7,000 pledged since it went up (it was at around 193.6k at 2pm PST and right now at 3:15pm PST it's at 200.4 k ).

    I'm participating!

    Sorry if that reference has been done before.

    But I have to say, I was worried I'd missed the print run on Snips, Snails, and Dragon Tails, so I'm glad I was able to get a copy here, and support the goal of getting all the books in print at once.

    When they say they take a cut, do they mean they increase the price I pay, or are taking a small cut of the money Rich receives?

    Alright, subliminal suggestion time. Rich doesn't know what Mystery Prize 3 is yet, so we have a chance nudge him in the right direction. So, with that in mind:

    Out of the cut that Rich receives.

    I just have to hope forgiveness is easier than permission (JK, my SO understands.)

    I see that the signed poster reward makes no mention of the pdf. I hope that was an oversight. I didn't read carefully. IT DOES! Thank-you everyone pointing it out.

    After carefully checking the conditions in the amazon section of the pledge, I am confident that they will charge you the amount you pledged and no more, and Rich will get 9% or so less than you pledged.

    Sorry if I scared you.

    Probably not, it is mentioned in the first pledge award.

    Got it!

    Kind of scary letting go of what you have in the attempt to snag something better. And if he adds another crayon drawing reward, I'm going to have to do it all over again!

    I could end up with nothing.

    How do you know we won't get one already? There are three mystery stories she could feature in, after all.

    My only worry here is that cranking out what, by my estimate, amounts to about 70 pages of content for the pdf is going to be a bit taxing on Rich.

    EDIT: Wooh! Just a little over $99,000 to go! Which begs the question... What on earth will Rich do if we go over that?

    EDIT2: ... It just went up $600+ dollars in a matter of minutes. I have to say, it's a testament to Rich's ability to write that we're going nuts like this.

    At this rate, he might as well just add another $100k to the chart, add another 20 or so pages and print the pdf (and only supporters will get to see it first as a digital copy)

    Quick question: does the $62 "pick two" reward include SSaDT as a choice? If so, I will definitely go up from the SSaDT reward alone to that one. If not, I am not sure what to increase to, as that and NCftPB are the only ones I'm missing, and I don't want to give up the SSaDT I am getting. They will ne out of stock after this!

    You are not the only one mate. I was going back and forth with my fianceč, trying to see how much I could drain from the wedding fund to put on the drive, trying to convince her that the signed ornaments would be a great thing. Glad they were gone before I could jump in.

    It isn't listed and don't really fit the general descriptions listed so I'd not count on it. Perhaps send a mail to Rich and ask nicely will do the trick?
    For the record I'm also slightly worried about my SSaDT, I should have gotten it in the summer - but I was poor in the summer! -.-

    So, it would appear those folks who already had the books were anxious to jump at rewards that weren't books.

    Because they sold out in about 10 minutes.
