Alright it's time to take a look at our final numbers!
We're looking at 1 week in, 2 weeks in, 3 weeks in, and then the final numbers just a day later! And after a full 10 hours of overtime from a team of backers who kept the backer train running until 1am MST! I see y'all in my dashboard on the backend, and appreciate your power! : P

That end of project stream was a lawless time. The biggest I saw the train was 391 people adjusting orders, pledging, and grabbing new items. And there were some good items to grab! Sure, there were the cheaper things which were exclusive to that period of time, but we also have some new add-ons that will be available to anyone who wants to add it to their surveys when we go to those next week or the week after.

The Goblin's Coin returns from the 2nd edition! And at just $4, this coin is a steal! Dice will give you multifaceted answers with depth, nuance. But sometimes you need a yes or no, and this coin has your back!

The First Edition Seasons Neoprene Mat comes back all the way from the 1st edition! It will be available in the backer survey for $30. It's one sided, sharing the grid from Emma Clinton from back in 2020. Maybe I'll return to Emma and ask for designs of the new 3 grids so we can have a set of neoprene mats in the future.

The Seasons Art Print Set is our 22-piece art print set of the Seasons Art Prints, returning for $20!

....and that's not all!

Now that the project is ended, people will have a chance at:

The Collab Pin as is normal for my projects, collab items become a purchasable item in the survey! Haven't picked the cost yet, but probably $10. It's my shameless copy of Sam Dow's goblin's journey pin designs.

The Commemorative 7 Was Wrong Enamel Pin is something I owe everyone. I said during the livestream that  we wouldn't break 1000 backers. I was proven wrong, and so as there was a commemorative mug in the Misery Tarot for whether or not Enoch Duncan got to live, there is now going to be a commemorative pin. It is yet to be designed, but will cost $7 because that's my darned name and all.

Tom Bombadil's Die is not yet designed, but is a bonus die that our trivia contest winners will get for free with their order, that anyone else can grab for just $5 as an add-on in the survey. Tom Bombadil visited all our streams and people love him as much as I do, and so it's only right we memorialize him in a 45th die! It will come with a tarot card cheat sheet of meanings, but won't be in any of the books.... yet. Maybe I'll include it in both just in case haha. I'm hoping to do an orange and dark orange swirl, with dark yellow/green ink. It will carry important lessons from our project's mascot, a sleepy, big, happy cat.
I wanted the trivia contest to be cute and fun, low stakes, and so here we are. Congrats to the winners, who will be crowned tomorrow once the trivia contest's final question is finished.

For now, hang out and chill friends. I need a little time to recover from the whole project haha, and so the weekend will carry me away.

See you again soon,

Now is your final time to grab what you want, what you need!

Look out for all kind of tiers coming and going for items, offering cheaper prices than was on the campaign! And some fun items, sneaking their way in here and there as well. : )

Join us here and now on the campaign page to join in the fun!

Welcome, one and all, to the third week. 

We launched the 1st, this is the 21st. Each week in, I've been sharing our numbers and where we're at! It's fun to watch the numbers change, grow, shift. So let's take a look at what they are as of today.

And your final reminder that this is the only time and space to get just certain update items to fill out your Key Keepers Set (if you already had some dice from it), and the only time to get JUST the updated Seasons Set guidebook, cheat sheets, and/or empty box. When the campaign ends, it won't be possible to get just those updates. Sets will be sold whole.

So the chest has been a bit of a thorn in the campaign's side! I was so excited to get photos with it, show it off in videos, and really push this chest as the best way to store things. Then the manufacturer didn't think they could get it shipped to me in time. No matter, I'd take photos and videos from them and photobash them into my photos! But then they weren't sure they'd have it in time at all, then their design supervisor was in the hospital. And as of today, no chest yet exists.

But it will without worry-- we just didn't get the samples in time to share for the campaign. So instead, I wanted to share the chest in design. It has a top area with a flip open lid with a glass top, so you can see the dice inside. The goal is for there to be a foam insert that keeps the dice in neat pockets in two spots, which you could take out and replace with your wooden box if you so desired/had one. This is the only piece that might change in design-- you'll still be able to remove them, but they may be lining up the dice differently in the final version. There is also a few spots for trinkets or charms in that top compartment. Then there is a drawer with 4 slots for tarot/oracle decks, with ribbons to easily get the decks out. There is a hidden space behind the decks where you could store additional items if you were so inclined.

Then there are three more drawers below of varying heights. One to store the cloths, one to store the guidebooks, and one to store the journals. But of course, they are able to be used however you see fit, and they'll have room enough for more than those items. They really are just an awesome storage option for the sets, and can handle all the items of the dice-- lords cards, cheat sheet cards, oracle decks. They will hold everything but the empty boxes from your dice sets!

For the stone dice, I've jumped in on including stone sets for both the Seasons Set and the Key Keepers set!
They're gorgeous and I added the stones being used to the descriptions of the pledge levels for them, so you can check there to see what stones are being used. Keep in mind they are from the manufacturer's catalogue so I think some translation didn't quite come through-- but you can see an incredible photo from the set's symbol designer, Amy Smith, of the Seasons Set right here!

I will admit, if the Stone Dice go in the top of your chest, you'll have to use one of the drawers for your standard dice (if you get them!) But they are so gorgeous they deserve that top spot.

And tomorrow, 2.30 pm MST until the backer train ends, I will be here, live on the campaign page. I'll be doing readings, I'll be releasing surprise tiers, add-ons, and cheap options for most things. You can ask questions, get you final orders finalized, and generally hang out! In the past I've been a bit too wild in these streams and offered items cheaper than they cost to produce-- I won't be doing that this time haha, but I can promise fun items and options will be here for us!

I'm also going to try something new later this year. When the guidebooks, journals, and everything has print samples in my hands, and I can show off everything in the real world with videos and photos, I'm going to do something weird and launch a pre-order Kickstarter. When it's nearing completion, then I'll lock in final manufacturing numbers and get us moving. I think launching now was the right thing to do for several reasons, but it was at a time of economic uncertainty, politics, tariffs, people were wary to look at new things. I also didn't have the sets in hand to show off in full, no chest, no boxes, no Key Keeper dice. 

So we're going to experiment and see if a smaller pre-order campaign right before they go to manufacturing does well. Not sure what the outcome will be or if it's something worth trying again int he future, but it's fun to experiment where we can! I definitely still have things to learn about crowdfunding and running a business, and I thank you all for joining me on this journey for this many years now.

See you all tomorrow!
