I can't spot a signed War and XP, On the Origins, and No Cure combo.

Since I have every faith that we'll reach the full-size print run for No Cure, I think I'll just stick with my order and then go to the store when this is done to buy the non-autographed one.

Hmm... the NCftPB options are nice, but alas, I'm not in it for the autographs, ha ha.

If the new "Pick two" option included SSaDT, I'd jump up from my current order to that one immediately, or at least a limited one like the War and XP and SSaDT one.

This isn't a problem, of course, I'm sure more will come up soon, and worst case scenario, I can just buy NCftPB later once the print run commences! Which, looking at things, seems like it's gonna happen.

For $57 you can get No-Cure & Snips together.

Yeah, I want a package like that too. And you're probably right about the best thing to do about it. I'm tempted to send Rich a message asking if an unsigned War and XPs could be sent with the other two for a certain amount more pledged, but he's got to be swamped right now.

If I'm to be honest, I am hoping that the next book *crossing fingers* will make an even better deal along those lines available.

But, hey, two autographed books, bunch of PDFs and a magnet already, so since I've only got so much money I'd best not push my luck.

Pledged a signed "up to the split" package a short while ago. When I selected it, there were 17 packages left. By the time I was finished, there were 5 left. Wow. Go Kickstarter Drive!

EDIT: And, as of 4:14 PM Eastern, they're sold out!

Hm...

While I want to keep supporting Rich, something seems a bit odd with the "up to the split" bundle. I don't know what shipping costs, admittedly, but the cost for all the books off Ookoodook comes to $141, which is $53 less than the Kickstarter bundle. Admittedly, I'm also getting a magnet and a boatload of PDFs with that, but is shipping really that expensive?

Yes. Yes, it is.

At least when you're shipping internationally.

Oh man, I was so tempted to grab an Up to the Split, but then I remembered as I was starting to change it that I own regular unsigned copies of half the books on it already and I really can't afford to pay that much on something like this.

Someone take that last remaining Up to the Split so I can't give in to temptation!

Yeah. Guessing there was a bit of pent up demand for NCftPB.

Now lets see if we can pledge enough money to get Rich to indeed consider The Prize behind Door Number Two Mystery Prize Number Two.

Ookoodook books aren't signed. Up to the Split? All books signed.

Never underestimate the fiscal irresponsibility of nerds when autographed nerd-products are involved.

I suppose people might be wanting to try to get from the start; but ignoring DCF because of it's oldness and stuff.

Like, people want to start from the start, but view DCF as "proto-OotS" rather than "the start".

I'm not very good with word selection, I think.

Oo, we're so close to the minimum print run that it might even be made in the time it takes for me to post this!

EDIT: Nooo... curse my surprisingly quick at typing hands.

More awesomeness from everyone pledging.

I think I'm holding out for the next barrage. I own all the print-only and DCF, so I really only need NCFtPB, WaXP, and DStP. Alas, I don't see an option for even 2 compilations without a print-only. Maybe if/when DStP is added there will be a "pick any 3 compilations" option.

Still quite impressive to reach it some half hour after the update. It was an at least 13000$ jump wasn't it?

I'm in the same boat. I messaged Rich asking for a "two thick" and hopefully a "three thick" option. Shoot, how about a pre-buy for the next book, too?

(Edit) New reward takes care of it. Thanks, Giant!

The signed Dungeon Crawlin' Fools was too much to resist, even though I already own the book...maybe I'll give the unsigned one as a Christmas present to somebody this year.
