Project Update: Additional Happy Holidays Graphic
We don't have any additional information on the shipping ETA for the games coming from the factory at the moment. But a few backers requested that we supply the gift graphic with a happy holidays message so we are posting the following for use in the gift-giving season. Attached here is a revised graphic that you can use in place of the previous one if you choose.
And you can grab the high res version here:

Thanks for supporting the Monty Python Game and happy holidays to everyone. We'll be sure to post more information as soon as we have an updated ETA from the freight forwarder.

I have one that projected shipping in the spring of 2023, and the editor is still adding shit to the book. At this point it's going to look like Meriam's unabridged...
Project Update: Monty Python Holy Grail Game Likely Shipping in January
We have been monitoring the shipping of the Monty Python games from the factory and unfortunately it looks like the swallows have swerved off course. Holiday shipping and some issues with sea freight have unfortunately put the shipment to port trending toward January. We have our domestic shipper ready to receive and ship out the games to backers as soon as they arrive from port to the warehouse. We'll be using rail to move them from port to the warehouse since the swallows are having trouble crossing the ocean. All of our research and preparation should result in quick fulfillment from the reshipper once the games are in house.
A few backers were planning to give the game as a gift this holiday season and suggested that we supply a card that they can print out and give to the recipients of the game. We thought that was a great idea and we put the attached card together to help keep the recipients excited about their upcoming gift.
For folks who would like a high res copy of this to print out - you can download one from here:

We will try to get regular updates out on the transportation of the games. There's little anyone can do but patiently wait while the freight makes its slow trip from the factory to the port. But we'll share as much information as we can get to keep you in the loop.
Thanks and happy holidays to all!

I've backed many projects over the years, some with delays, but no matter what the delay was, the project kept the backers consistently informed - this project has become ridiculous. Rarely an update, I pledged over 10 months ago now and no sign of a ship date, yet my credit card is charged and probably not even able to contest it at this point because it's been so long ago. Seriously starting to think this is just a scam and @backerkit needs to look into this nonsense. It's okay to have delays, it's not okay to keep the people who are funding you in the dark - takes you 10 minutes to send an update!

Here's an idea: Put together a PDF for backers, with graphics and text that describes the game and has something like "ON ITS WAY TO YOU: THE MONTY PYTHON BOARD GAME (currently being transported by swallows)" so we can still give the game as a gift in absentia.
