Haha. Not sure how he does it!

hehehe it's all because of the magic pixie dust....

Like Lotrek did, the Pierre level pledge should be a standard now hehehehe

Damn man, gone immediately.

I got one. I was the fifth pledge, not sure if the other four were the 165 level or not.

Something's odd, though. It said there were 5 available, but there are 8 pledges at that level at the moment...

Yeah. Wow.

Edit: Fully funded (over $10,000) by 5:05pm. Wow.)

How do you know what pledge you were?

Yeah I am sure the last 4 pledges went in exactly at same time... making it 8 I have never seen that

just look at your pledge

The confirmation screen said "You and 4 others..."

Damnit Pete!

What? I have to admit this is getting harder and harder hehe One of these days someone will send Rousselle to cut my internet cable on the side of my house

Ahhh. I didn't look. Wonder what number I was. Now showing 7 and comment section all messed up for me.

That was me.

I decided I'd help the log-jam a bit and changed my pledge to the (last) open $80 slot.

(Edit: The 8 -> 7; the comment section problem is not my doing )

Do you take commission pledge work?

(I'll just put it out there - if anyone with the last pledge level decides they want to change/drop it - let me know. )

Also don't forget that there will surely be other projects during the year from Chris that might make Gold PR available

And that there will be more spots opening later on.

Maybe.
But the way this is playing out is giving me the creeps.
I like the imps, but I'm feeling manipulated.
When I missed out for the PR's I thought about it for awhile before going for the $80 level.
I could wait-up until 2AM for the next, what 2? 3? 5? sets, but to what end?

Maybe I'll just wait for the Ultralimited editions with gilding.

Wow, everyone is only talking about the PR's. While I definitely want one of the golds as well, I'm hoping there will be a way that I'll be able to get more LE Gamesters. That's what the campaign is about at this point fellas. I find it hard to believe I'm the only one so far, that's excited about the LE Gamesters. I hope I'm not. These are going to be fantastic! I absolutely love the idea of Gamesters with foil on the backs, they're going to pop on the table.

Great point Fes. this might be our only chance to get them right now and they are beautiful. I think this is one deck I will definitively open and use

Wow....speechless. Never seen a response like that before...and I can't explain how there are 7 backers in a pledge tier that only allowed for 5. Timing must have been spot on with those backers clicks.

Thanks everyone for the support, really...wow!! Thank you Fes for acknowledging what this campaign is really about...the LE Gamesters...not really the PR decks. Those were only added on because of the dozens of emails I received requesting I make golds available. I don't have many to release so this was the best opportunity I could find for now.

I think the LE Gamesters will turn out really well, been wanting to do a foil back deck for a long time and now that EPCC can do it...it was an easy YES on my end...but man, they are expensive to make.

Blown away by the support, thanks for keeping me on my feet and giving me a reason to stay creative.

Well I royally pissed up this one. Missed the 1am release. Missed the 10am second release (didn't know/ wasn't aware of it happening).
By the time I had a chance to check in and place a pledge the $80 tier had sold out as well!!
I really wanted to get these decks and hopefully get a yellow PR deck. Looks like i'll be missing out, again!
I understand it's hard to do the best for everyone. On this occasion, it just hasn't worked out for me!
I know there is still tiers available but that would mean pledging more than others have had to for the same stuff.
Hopefully someone can do a trade or something later on.
SUCKS!

Had a friend in mind for the PR set but I was knee-deep into CSS coding and had no time for the second window for that pledge level. I'm glad I have my double set of the LE Gamesters though.

I'm going to pretend you wanted to grab the PR's for your pal Fes. That's very nice.

There are 13 of the double set's left at $70. I'm soo tempted to slide down the path of multi KS accounts to get four more decks. I won't do it, feels like cheating and once you start cheating it's incredibly easy to continue doing so. Something I won't do. Play too much poker, don't like cheats all that. Still... the temptation is there. My plans for world domination include more than two of each LE Gamesters haha.

I've got a few accounts. I don't usual use more than one unless it's a good price break or I really want more than one tier.

About these decks. I didn't pledge the standards, far too minimal back for me so no point in trying to snag these.

While some folks are bemoaning the gold PR, I would just like to get an LE set. The timing for this set is wrong for me and I'll miss out. No big deal. No one ever said I would get everything I want in life. To rub more salt in the wound I had to lower my pledge for the Gamesters and missed out on the reg PR. ah well, they go on my wish list.
