Working on XP cards
Hi guys,
We're still having some alignment issues with the XP cards, so they are working on another sample. In the meantime, I'm sending out the first set of surveys to make sur...

The next step for anyone getting their game shipped is that you need to confirm your address. I'll be locking those this afternoon. Please check that your address is correct so that I can begin to ship them out.
We did have a few credit cards fail to go through for the shipping. You should have received a notification. If so, please make sure your credit card on file is up to date. This happens a lot because the amount of times folks have to get new credit cards due to fraud or losing them. Please check to see if your card failed, and get the new information in. Once that's done, I can mail it to you.
I'll be in touch with Adventurer's Guild to talk about a release party and will let you know as soon as possible when we land on a date.
Thank you everyone for all your support. I can't believe we're at the tail end of it!! - Manda
Hi all- I've officially gotten notice that the shipment has cleared customs and the train has arrived in Cleveland. Now we are just waiting for it to get on a truck so that it can be shipped to our distribution point. Once it arrives, we can start shipping to backers. It should be less than a couple weeks now.
Just a quick word on how the survey and charging for shipping worked. You filled out the survey a few weeks ago and entered your credit card info (if you had to pay for shipping). However, your credit cards were not charged yet. Backerkit recommends waiting until you're about 30 days out from shipping before charging. So I will be charging the credit cards and last of the orders today. If you paid for shipping, your credit card will be charged now for those costs.
I am still working on getting a date for a local pick up. Since it's going to be so close to Thanksgiving, I need to be a little flexible. Also, without a confirmed delivery date, I don't' want to set something for a release party that might have to get rescheduled again. Once its on the truck and I have an estimated arrival date, I'll feel more secure setting that up.
I was going to title this update with something like "Good news, but bad news" however I figure I wouldn't bury the lead. The playmats have arrived and look really good! They are edge stitched so the quality is nice and the artwork looks vibrant. I'm very happy with them overall.
Unfortunately I also received word that the shipping is slightly delayed and now we are looking more at a December 2 arrival date. I'm waiting on more official tracking information. This still means I should be able to get it to most people before the holidays at the end of the month. Any further delays could jeopardize this goal though. Too bad we can't send in some influencers to get things moving quicker!
If you paid for shipping, your credit cards will be charged soon. Backerkit suggests that you do not charge any sooner than 30 days out. So I'll be looking at finalizing that next week as soon as I get concrete shipping tracking information.
If you did not buy a game mat, but would like to please reach out to me.
I've received word that the games have shipped and are on their way from China. They are set to arrive in Long Beach on 11/05, so that's looking like a November 11 or 12th arrival at our fulfillment location. That means I can start arranging shipping to those who opted for it, or meeting you otherwise to get the game in your hands before Christmas.
It's a little later than I was hoping, since I won't have the games in time for Mepacon. However, I talked to the folks at Portal in Bethlehem and we're going to have a release day there. I'm also going to have a day at Adventurer's Guild in Harrisburg. I'll have dates out as soon as I can confirm them. If you don't think either of these options will work for you and want to arrange alternative pick up, please reach out to me at [email protected] .
I'll keep you posted as I get more shipping information and have firms dates on the arrival.
Thank you again for your support through all this! - Manda
