Project FAQ
Almost immediately! We're printing the books as we type this, and many of the items already exist or are print-on-demand. Once the campaign ends on February 11th, we'll open up the Pledge Manager as soon as it funds approximately on the 28th. Then we'll allow a month for collecting funds for shipping and additional add-ons. So long as you're paid in full and have all your info, you'll get the PDFs dumped in your inbox and the physical books not too long after that.
You can't. Except you can. I'm pretty visible, both online and at conventions and I post a TON of updates. So if something is late, you'll know. And then I'll throw a bunch of fun new PDFs your way. Fortunately, campaign is made up of stuff I've already made and have literally hit the print button on before it even finishes up. The only way this can get screwed up is if it's absurdly popular and we have to print extra. But I've done this enough times now that I feel I can reasonably predict the results before they occur. But hey... prove me wrong.
The good news is that there is absolutely nothing new to write. It's all done. Huzzah! Print times for every component are as follows: Broadsword Guide to Hunting Werebeasts: 3-4 weeks (Amazon KDP) The Best of DMDave Modules: 3-4 weeks (Mixam) Revolver Dice, Dice Bags, Dice Trays, etc.: 3-4 weeks shipped via China Broadsword Back Issues: 2-3 weeks (Amazon KDP) Just Passing Through 1-5: 3-4 weeks (Amazon KDP) Dungeons & Lairs 1-4: 3-4 weeks (Amazon KDP) PDFs will drop as soon as the Pledge Manager opens.
Look, I'm just one guy with just one part-time customer service agent. While you're free to ask me what's up and express disappointment if something doesn't go how you like, I have no patience for people who are rude. If you're rude (and you know what I mean by rude), it's "NO SOUP FOR YOU." You get a quick refund, banned from all my channels, and then I take you and turn you into a CR 0 shit-dildo monster. So be cool, honey bunny.
BackerKit FAQ
BackerKit Crowdfunding is an all-or-nothing collaborative funding platform. Creators share their project ideas and set a funding goal with a deadline. Backers pledge money to help make the project possible.
If the project meets its goal by the deadline, pledges are charged and the creator moves forward. If it doesn’t, no one is charged.
Backers often receive special rewards for their support, such as:
- Exclusive products
- Bonus rewards for backing related projects
- Discount pricing
- Behind-the-scenes updates
- Creative input opportunities
Pledging in crowdfunding is a commitment to support the creation of a new product or project. Unlike a traditional purchase, you're not buying an item that already exists. Instead, your contribution helps bring a creative idea to life, and in return, you typically receive rewards (such as the product itself) as a thank you for your early support.
- Select a pledge level with the reward(s) you would like to receive
- Select any add-ons
- Confirm your pledge!
- You are charged only if the campaign meets its funding goal.
- Charges happen when the campaign ends, not when you pledge.
The creator will send you a survey to:
- Ask you for more information about your rewards (selecting options, etc)
- Collect shipping information
- Offer additional items you may want to add to your pledge
- Collect shipping fees (if applicable)
The survey will be sent to the email address we have on file with your pledge. Additional payments are charged when you complete the survey.
Only the project creator and the BackerKit Support Team can see your pledge and contact information. Other backers and the public cannot see your individual pledge amount or personal details.
You can change or adjust your pledge level and add-ons before the campaign ends. After the project concludes, cancellations or changes are at the creator's discretion and may depend on what stage the project is in.
Overtime Mode extends your campaign past its original end time to give backers a final chance to make their pledge. It will add an additional 10 minutes past the end time as long as pledges keep coming in. The campaign will end when there is a 10-minute period without any new pledges.
