It worked best in my opinion.Sviatoslav Pashchuk wrote: ↑Tue Jan 30, 2024 7:48 am Greeting! Yes, this is really the first deck where I tried my hand at more classic images.
You know, recently I often come across posts on various social networks from Ukrainians who left Ukraine in the first months of the war. I knew many of these people personally. And this is what I will tell you. Over time, a person ceases to understand a situations in which he does not live. Almost everyone who left my country practically stopped writing about war, about death, about genocide, about the killing of children and the destruction of our culture. They fast their new life - mountains, seas, European cities, restaurants and the like. And that's normal. I have no questions about it. People decided to go and change their lives. But my family and I, like millions of others, live in Kyiv. This is our home, our land. And here we live in the reality of war.Constantine wrote: ↑Mon Jan 29, 2024 7:33 pm At this point, any hype generated would have been gone. We're near the end of January and still no news.
Apart from the war in Ukraine, I don't think the delay is purely all about modifying the pledges, as there's been very little changes regarding that.
Hope to hear soon from the creators.
Very well said. I have tons of admiration and respect for the Ukrainian people, and their incredible resistance and resilience.Sviatoslav Pashchuk wrote: ↑Tue Jan 30, 2024 8:32 am You know, recently I often come across posts on various social networks from Ukrainians who left Ukraine in the first months of the war.

And in this reality, my children go to school every day and sit there in the basement for several hours, because Kyiv is bombarded with ballistic missiles almost every day. In this reality, we bury friends every week and comrades every day. We often have no Internet, mobile communication, or electricity. I am learning to assemble combat drones, mastering a new profession as a military engineer, giving lectures to other people on the application of the latest technologies in war. We defend our world, our values, our life. And those who left, as well as those who do not live through war, cannot understand this. But we do not ask for this. Just be respectful of others' choices.
This is the first post ever on this forum that has made me quite emotional.Sviatoslav Pashchuk wrote: ↑Tue Jan 30, 2024 8:32 amYou know, recently I often come across posts on various social networks from Ukrainians who left Ukraine in the first months of the war.

Just a minefield for folks that care about lists or offense. For offense being taken it needs someone to feel offended. If those folks take the time to think a lot about words then they surely have the time to not feel offended.
I just wasn't sure that you were aware. Now that I know you know, I wholeheartedly agree with your position. The world would be such a better place if all those silly people didn't feel bad when we use intentionally hurtful language!!!Harvonsgard wrote: ↑Tue Jan 30, 2024 12:54 pmJust a minefield for folks that care about lists or offense.

Like I said, I'm with you! We shouldn't have to think before we choose our words... That's for boring adults! Say whatever the hell you want. It's always the other person's fault if they choose to be offended.Harvonsgard wrote: ↑Tue Jan 30, 2024 3:18 pm It's not meant intentionally hurtful, that's the important destinction here. If someone takes the time to be offended though, then yah, I don't care because I'm a hundred percent aware of my intent.
I agree with not being afraid of words, I agree with the anti-[trimmed in the name of irony by admin rousselle].
i am assuming that below the ace it says ''hot and dangerous''. it kind of looks like ''not and dangerous''. maybe a different H would be good.Sviatoslav Pashchuk wrote: ↑Tue Jan 30, 2024 7:48 am
Greeting! Yes, this is really the first deck where I tried my hand at more classic images. Also, please don't worry too much about it, because the next deck will have custom drawings;)

While I agree with the philosophy of: "I disapprove of what you say, but I will defend to the death your right to say it", that really only applies to protecting citizens from government censorship and abuse. This is a privately owned forum that is free to set its own standards. In my view, deciding what's offensive is done by the community and enforced by the moderators. Obviously people here have some strong opinions on the matter, but I feel bad about hijacking this thread.
Thank you for such trust! As our practice shows, it is our projects that take goal 5-7 days after launch. We are not the type of authors and teams that collect the main goal in a day or an hour. Many people set low goals in order to reach the goal in the first hours. We don't do that. Our team does not play tricks, we honestly write the amount necessary for the production of the project. So far, a day has passed, we have collected 40 percent of the amount, this is the result we expected. Usually 300 to 700 bakers come to us, so I think everything will be fine. However, even if something goes wrong, we can always restart)Disenchanted_11 wrote: ↑Fri Feb 02, 2024 5:59 am This is the first time I backed a project that didn't immediately get funded. And we all know how slow it goes after the initial stage. Maybe it's the cost, maybe the standard-ish art, maybe the lack of exposure. Maybe the dark theme? Maybe it will eventually crawl towards the goal.
I really like these that I even backed for a full set. But nothing can be done at this point but wait. This is going to be a cutthroat waiting for me, which only happens when waiting for stretch goals to unlock.
Count this one in as a drunk post. Cheers.
