disappointed reaper are doing it this way

I've only had one package go missing so far, but I had to file the claim on that too. I think that has to do with the item being your property as soon as it is shipped and no longer the senders property.

Well they suckered me in for $50 at the last minute.

I went for the dragon/ruins set and the Kraken.

Nifty Otyugh.

For those who are interested in that sort of thing - Reaper now has the #7 and #10 top earning KS campaigns of all time in all categories.

Need $3,105,473 to take the #9 slot.

Well with the Thankyou in place and likely the last time on the release I finally jumped in;

Dragon Hatchlings
Sophie (because at $2 who doesn't want to get a Sophie!)
Narthrax
Blightfang
Nathavarr

And that's as much as I can afford this month. There's a strong chance I'll add the Thank-You pack later (several things I can use in a daemons army in there). I'm tempted by the First expansion, but since the Silver Dragon is the only thing in it I want the rest is a bit of overkill.

Oh I guess that a USA/UK difference then

(EDIT in the UK) If you buy goods to be shipped to you the shipper is legaly responsible for getting them to you and has to refund/replace if they go missing. They're also the ones who should be dealing with any claims against the carrier for loss or damage

Most likely. Here, as soon as you hand it to the USPS, it becomes the property of the addressee - and they take that pretty seriously...though normally it ends up dealing with people on the other end snagging things like checks or credit cards...but yah, I don't think Reaper really has much control over that.

Also, updated the first post with all the current graphics. Kinda silly, I have to swipe my tablet three times to scroll to the end of the page. It now runs out of steam long before the end of the graphics.

Heads up to those who have a late wave number... People are dropping from the higher ones about every 2 minutes or so. I just went from wave 6 to wave 1 in the course of about 10 minutes.

I hope they add another big cool model. Wasn't it at about this point that they added the Cthulhu last one?

Not quite what I was hoping for, but there is this...

Back in, if only for $1, there's a few bits that I'd quite like, so it would be silly not to put my foot in the door and upgrade later.

Yep - I shimmied from Wave 10 to Wave 6 of the $1 pledge already with little effort. There was a Wave 2 option open briefly - but I was not fast enough to claim it :/

I hate when things end with a whimper instead of a BANG.

Maybe something will happen at the 60 minute mark?

I was kind of hoping they were keeping a a running tally of what (if any) goals they had proposed internally had passed, and they could just let us all know "Hey! We had ___ planned at X amount, so here's some more goodies you can throw money at!" or something along those lines.

Very happy with a lot of the stuff I'll be getting though!

Why don't they just come out and say we made enough money we don't want anymore instead of stupid s*** like this?

I snatched an early bird once it was announced, wonderful. Not sure about the new stretch, but hey, its been a fun ride.

Dude, they shoulda had more stuff ready, or just added a few PC figs to the core. This pie stuff is lame.

I just dropped my Early Bird.

Small thing, just played around with the manager, and when I left the dragon and adventurers off Dragons Don't Share, my shipping dropped by almost half.

Worth baring in mind it, like me, you're interested in the terrain, as the full set becomes a false economy.

So, triple checking

My bid is $100 on the ks, and around 140 plus postage on the pledge manager.

When it ends will Amazon want the 100 paying immediately or what is in the pledge manager?

You pay right away whatever is in the Amazon thing. You will eventually need to pay what you want to cover your whole pledge (end of December).

I just managed to make it back to early bird.

Apparently if you have a core pledge level, you can still just spend the $100 on whatever instead of the core set. Since Dragons Don't share starts me at $68 immediately, it'll be pretty easy for me to reach $100, and the early bird gets me much earlier shipping (3 months earlier stated date than any $1 pledge currently available).

Because it's even stupider if they crash (or even lag) the servers again because of last-minute pledging. This isn't the first KS that ended a few hours "early". Smallworld did it as well.

In one hour, they're over $3M by 100K. That tells me that this KS needed time for pledges to finalize. Yes, pledges really have until December to finalize, but if the KS ends too soon, many backers will comment "OH NOES I DIDN'T UPDATE MAI PLEDGE AMANGERS" or other whiny s*** because backers don't read the FAQ, updates, or comments. Also, from this thread, we know backers are jumping waves for earlier pledges. I think they have enough to stress about, even without a two hour leeway.

They added a big spider - everyone happy now?

Don't like spider. Happy with khanjiru and dds2 tho

Not really psyched on that spider. Also seems pretty small for what other $15 add-ons are.

Three million for this stuff? Seriously?

That is a really big spider. I have the metal one, and it is one of those who weighs so much that I don't bring her out very often. Bones would be nice.

I didn't follow the previous one - have they actually manufactured and shipped all the models already?

Yes - everything from KS1 has shipped and was received by almost everyone before this started (there were a few stuck in customs at the very beginning).
