Wow, I can't imagine what a headache that first item on Five Things Rich Did Since the Last Update must have been. That sounds like the kind of thing that would leave you banging your head against the wall in frustration.
One ironic thing is that magnets cannot stick to aluminium (i.e- soda cans) and tin (i.e- food cans) even though they;re metals.

If anything, the metals magnets don't stick to are totally unironic.

So everyone will have stone and bone weapons. I wonder if Dark Sun version of this strip will be the amount of Iron Ore.

Re: The Post-Kickstarter Discussion Thread: Bask in the Afterglow
Dim Sun Speculation:
This scene, except the starmetal will be Iron Ore (since it is rare).
Belkar and Durkon gnawing on bone swords (Dwarves and halflings are cannibals in Darksun).
Mad Max references.
Shojo could be badass sorceror king, and his nephew Hinjo.

Well, maybe if the wood made a little bit of effort to woo the magnet... Give it compliments. Take it out on a date. Offer small tokens of affection. Maybe then the magnet would be attracted to it.
But how do we really know that the wood wants the magnet to be attracted to it?

Well, duh. I thought everyone knew that the more awful the pun, the better it is.

Has everyone else gotten their Kickstarter order form?
I haven't gotten it yet and I'm getting pretty worried.

Re: Has everyone else gotten their Kickstarter order form?
Well, what did you order? By my understanding, only certain orders will have had their form by now... for example, I am on the D&D party pledge, so don't think I should have received one yet.

Re: Has everyone else gotten their Kickstarter order form?
Anything that had a autograph or a drawing hasn't had a survey sent out yet. Probably other catagories as well.
To see if you should have had a survey but didn't get it for some reason, go to the Kickstarter Drive page, check your pledge level and see if it says something like this at the very bottom of it:
Re: Has everyone else gotten their Kickstarter order form?
I ordered the $78 one - DStP and I was going to ask for WaXP. I'll go check the Kickstarter page, thanks.

Re: Has everyone else gotten their Kickstarter order form?
That survey should have gone to you last week, so you should check the email that is attached to your Kickstarter account (especially the spam folder). If you still don't see it, there should be a link at the top of the screen for you to complete the survey when you log in to Kickstarter. Hopefully one of those two options will work for you.
Re: The Post-Kickstarter Discussion Thread: Bask in the Afterglow
Signed book surveys are out!
I made sure to mention in the comments that I put in the extra for adding a signed book on top of the two the pledge comes with anyway. Hope that All goes well there.

Yup, I got my survey for signed books. I barely put in enough extra for the extra coloring book and patches. I guess that's what I get for changing my pledge at the last second late at night.
Re: The Post-Kickstarter Discussion Thread: Bask in the Afterglow
And I derped in the survey. Said yes to extra coloring book when I meant no.
I hope a message to Rich on Kickstarter can sort it out.
