Re: The OOTS Reprint Drive at Kickstarter: Pledge now to get exclusive rewards!
I've always wanted to own a full collection of OOTS, so yay
This sounds like a great way to get everyone's favorite web comic back into the hands of readers!

Re: The OOTS Reprint Drive at Kickstarter: Pledge now to get exclusive rewards!
While I can't pledge at least until the end of the month, I hope to be able to pledge something (if only $10 for the magnet and O'Chul PDF) before the end of the drive.
If I can, I want to give $55 for a copy of War and XPs, which is the only one of the current books that I don't have - but I'll have to see if the money allows it before the end of the pledge drive or if I have to wait and order one later through Ookoodook...
Still, as I type this I see we're only about $1000 off hitting the first target to get WaXPs back in print!SpoilerYou can't tell, but in the original (pre-shrunk) version of my avatar while I was creating it, the goblins T-shirt reads "I Killed a PC and All I Got Was This Lousy T-Shirt"

Re: The OOTS Reprint Drive at Kickstarter: Pledge now to get exclusive rewards!
Seeing how 3 1250 pledges were sold, but 5000 is still not, I suppose the price for the cameo walk-in should have been 2500...

Re: The OOTS Reprint Drive at Kickstarter: Pledge now to get exclusive rewards!
Only $500 left! This is so exciting!
I pledged $10.Rules that supersede Rule 0:
Rule -1: You're all there to have fun. The GM and the players should never do anything that would limit people's fun, for any in-game or real-life reason.
Rule -0.5 (corollary): That means that if someone's fun is getting in the way of other people's fun, that person needs to change how they're playing.

Re: The OOTS Reprint Drive at Kickstarter: Pledge now to get exclusive rewards!
$200 to go. This is more exciting than the new year's countdown
Not if my index finger has anything to say about it. And, as it turned out, it had quite the stirring dissertation prepared on that very subject.
Many thanks to half-halfling for the Spanish Inquisition avatar

Re: The OOTS Reprint Drive at Kickstarter: Pledge now to get exclusive rewards!
I had a thought for a possible reward for something like $20 donation. You get a custom rank in the forums. and then say a limited amount of $50 you get to pick your rank title (pending approval of course).
I'd love to spend more, but being out of work right now can't. I'm doing the $10 for sure, but I could manage $20 and a new rank on the forum would be cool, or maybe $50 for my own made up rank.
Just saw the goal was reached! CoolLast edited by Balain; 2012-01-23 at 05:12 PM.

Re: The OOTS Reprint Drive at Kickstarter: Pledge now to get exclusive rewards!
Just to give some fun numbers.
About 30 hours to raise $57,750.
That's $1925 an hour
about $32.083 a minute
about $0.53 a second
If this were a job (40 hour work week), it would pay (before taxes and deferrals)
$77,000 a week
$4,004,000 a yearLet the Yaggle Gakkle-ing begin.

Re: The OOTS Reprint Drive at Kickstarter: Pledge now to get exclusive rewards!
Just wanted to let you guys know that we crossed the funding threshold a minute or two ago (5:10 pm Eastern US time).
So this thing is happening.

So, Giant, it looks like you met your one day goal of $57,750 for the book reprinting.
Wait, month?

Re: The OOTS Reprint Drive at Kickstarter: Pledge now to get exclusive rewards!
No, if you're getting just the magnet, you don't need to add anything for international shipping. They're being sent First Class mail, which means in an envelope with a stamp, so the cost difference between US and overseas is under a dollar. We're just eating that difference to make it easier for everyone.
(Caveat: First Class mail is not fast. People who order a book and a magnet will almost certainly get it before the people who order just a magnet, even if the magnet packages hit the mail first.)
Yes! As linked to before, we have many goals left to reach, and the pledge drive stays open until February 21 no matter what.Rich Burlew

Re: The OOTS Reprint Drive at Kickstarter: Pledge now to get exclusive rewards!
Can we know in advance what the 3 bonus comics are? (when the three generous people have decided it)
If the characters chosen are interesting, I think more people will participate in the pledge.

Re: The OOTS Reprint Drive at Kickstarter: Pledge now to get exclusive rewards!
Threw in my $10. Would have been more, but I already have all the books, and car accidents are what they are (i.e. expensive), so I decided to go with O-chul's backstory. Congratulations on the drive's success.
