We look to be on track to reach the 20% mark in under 48 hours. How exciting is that?

A backer, Robert, discovered an error in the shipping costs for the Early Bird: Half Brick reward. It shows shipping the US as $22 when it should be $7. What a good catch on his part. I will make this right but I am not allowed to alter the price for shipping in the US for this reward at this point. If the project funds, upon shipment I will return $15 to those people who backed this Early Bird: Half Brick reward assuming they are shipping to an American address. How does that sound?

You are all the best. Thanks,

Well how about that?

Combo Deals.

Good morning. A number of you have wanted to get one or more cards decks and an uncut sheet, but you can only pledge at one level. To help with that, I have added two options: Combo #1 (one deck and one uncut sheet, and Combo #2 (two decks and one uncut sheet.

But fear not, if you've already pledged and this project funds, I'll send you the option for add-ons and you can add additional rewards at that time if you like.

Wow, how exciting!

As Ms. Austen said, “Run mad as often as you choose, but do not faint!” I shall try not to faint this afternoon. Thanks to the first three backer! I really appreciate it.
