Project Update: Pledge Manager sent! Stock now arriving
Hey all,
Just letting you know that I just hit the send button on Pledge Manager. Also, I got word from our overseas manufacturer that all the add-ons are done being made and should hop on a boat soon. Finally, the books are nearly done printing and *should* arrive next week.
If you have any trouble with Backerkit Pledge Manager, let us know at [email protected]
9 times out of 10, there's an issue with email addresses in the system and it's a pretty easy fix on our end.
And if you're a patron, be sure to hit me up on Discord so we can get any credits you have sorted before the charge date.

Project Update: Fixing bugs
Hey all,
We noticed there's a few bugs, particularly with Stripe not charging right and also it charging shipping for free dice to Patreon/Repeat backers. Note that only those who're getting physical rewards will get the free dice. Sorry for any confusion.
We're speaking with Backerkit now and hoping to have this fixed before the weekend.

Project Update: Pledge Manager Opening Up This Week
Hey friends!
Thanks for bearing with us while we were getting things set up with Backerkit. Calvin from BK and I just finished up the Pledge Manager. Here's what to expect:
The survey should go live this Friday, March 14th. Some of you may receive a "smoke test" beforehand.
You have two weeks to get your information into the Pledge Manager and set up your payment for shipping rates plus any additional add ons (March 28th).
We will be locking orders and charging cards on March 28th, so be prepared for that. That will also be when we release all the digital content.
We plan to start shipping goods by Tuesday, April 8th. The items from China may take a bit longer, but those of you just getting the books will have those soon.
If there's any hiccups, we'll let you know beforehand. If you're a Patron at the Gold+ level and you're expecting credits/rewards for back issues, please contact me on Discord and I'll see what your credits are. You will already have one going toward the main book. Keep in mind you're free to hold off on using all your credits as we'll be opening another campaign with new books on April 8th.
If you have any general questions, let us know below and we'll try to answer them in 24 hours.
Thanks and enjoy!

Project Update: Back from Louisville update
Hey fam,
I just got back from the GAMA trade. Here's the status of everything so far:
I just got back from the GAMA trade. Here's the status of everything so far:
- Pledge Manager was submitted last Saturday but it's still in review. Hopefully, it'll open up this week.
- The majority of the non-main books will arrive from Amazon Kindle Direct on Monday. The rest should take 1-2 weeks, approximately when Amazon closes.
- Mixam will be about 2-3 weeks on the Best of DMDave stuff.
- The stuff we're getting made overseas will be 25-30 days from Monday.
- For those of you just getting books and items we already have in stock, we'll ship those ahead of time. Those with doo-dads will have to wait until those arrive.
- All PDFs will come out when the PM opens.
Let me know if there's any questions. Holler.

Project Update: Pledge Manager up soon (we had an issue come up but Backerkit helped us resolve it)
Hey all,
I'm just letting you know that the Pledge Manager will be up soon. I submitted it about 10 days ago, and BK reviewed it, but it kicked back to an old email address. However, we've now got it working like it should.
I still have to review it and fix a few things, but we should have it up and ready by the EOW. Keep in mind that this will charge and lock relatively fast, so be prepared for that, as we're hoping to everything out before our next Backerkit campaign begins in early April.
Here's the status on everything thus far:

Here's the status on everything thus far:
- All PDFs are done and will be released as soon as the Pledge Manager charges
- The core book is published on KDP. Just waiting for them to let me order it so we can get them here in stock.
- I got the fancy d20s from Yaniir while we were hanging in Louisville.
- All the back issues of JPT, D/L, and Broadsword are here and ready to ship.
- All of the add-ons from our manufacturer in China are ordered. They're waiting on a logo for the dice tray, but everything else is good to go.
- The fancy book is being printed by Mixam right now and should be here in a couple weeks.
One quick note: I was originally going to print the Best of DMDave content via Mixam. However, the orders for those are pretty low and Mixam, unlike Amazon KPD, has a minimum order quantity. I've got Werewolf Village in stock already, but the rest I will either convert over to KDP or cancel. If we do end up canceling those add-ons, we'll issue returns in KDP. I'll keep you posted either way.
Let us know if you need anything.
