Hello All, We recently sent out 50 surveys as a smoke test to ensure there were no issues. Out of the 24 responses received, no problems were identified. I am now proceeding to send the remaining surveys. Please keep an eye out for them and any further updates. I hope everyone has a great weekend!
Apologies for the late update. To be honest, setting up the pledge manager has been a challenge due to some technical issues with the Backerkit backend. However, we have submitted everything for review, and you should receive your surveys within the next few days. Please complete these as soon as possible, as your selections for interior bags and other options will determine our final production quantities for each item and color.
What have I been up to.
D20 Dice Samples Prototypes for the D20 dice have arrived. While the size and shape are excellent, I’ve found that the black numbering on certain colors is a bit too dark for low-light visibility. I’ve included some photos below and would love to hear your thoughts. As a reminder, every pledge that includes a bag will also receive one of these D20s—perfect for your EDG7, whether you're playing D&D or just making random decisions.
Perplext Pack O Games We have received the Perplext Pack O Games. The first 150 backers will receive one of six titles (Gem, Fly, Win, Mad, Far, or Sly) by Chris Handy. These are great for a quick 15-minute game on the go. Patches and Accessories All existing patch designs have been reordered, and new designs are currently in production. I have also designed a few new additions that haven't been revealed yet, and I am excited to expand the collection. Below is one of those new designs. If you are from the New England area, then this will resonate with you. Production Updates Production is officially underway for Gamey Susansâ„¢, Player Ones, Hex Trays, and Hex Tray racks. You can see a photo of the purple Hex Trays mid-production below. For more frequent behind-the-scenes updates, I encourage you to follow @modernmeeple on Instagram. EDG7 production is also moving forward as we secure fabrics, buckles, padding, and hardware. We are currently producing the bag labels, as shown in the photo below. Once the surveys are completed, we will have the final data needed to manufacture the correct quantity of each color. Below we have a picture of our bag labels being made. Id like to thank everyone for supporting Modern Meeple and the EDG7. The journey has been epic so far and I'm looking forward to seeing these bags in the wild.
We are approaching the final stretch of this campaign, and I am incredibly excited about how far we’ve come.
Can we reach the $200,000 stretch goal? Now is the perfect time to add a bag to your pledge, as all additional bags will also include the stretch goal rewards! Please continue to share the campaign and spread the word to your friends.
I am also currently working on the pledge manager, which will launch after the campaign ends. At that time, you will be able to select your bag color (Red, Orange, Yellow, Green, etc.). Your bag color will also determine the color of your trays and d20; this streamlined approach ensures faster fulfillment and minimizes errors.
I will send another update just before the pledge manager goes live. Thank you all for your support, and have a great weekend!
Thank you to all who have backed our project! We have officially reached our $100k stretch goal, and the D20 has been selected. We are now well on our way to $200k.
To stay ahead of schedule, we are starting production on the dice immediately. The D20 will be available in Red, Orange, Yellow, Green, Blue, Purple, Pink, and Black. When you select your bag color, your D20 will be provided in a matching color.
If you haven't already, please vote for your preferred bag color using the attached poll. This will help us estimate the popularity of each color. Additionally, for those who expressed interest in the patches, they will be available as add-ons.
I want to extend my sincere gratitude to each of you for backing the EDG7. This project has been a two-year journey, and your support serves as a wonderful validation of all the work that has gone into this process. Simply put, the EDG7 would not be possible without your contribution and belief in this vision.
I am incredibly excited to begin the process of getting these bags into your hands and to finally see them out in the wild. Thank you again for being part of this community.

Is the December 1st delivery on the main page true? Is it gonna be a while before we get our bags or is that just ultimate dead line to start delivering?
