Hello esteemed members of the Order of the Dark Wheel.

My name is Rick (different from the Rick you know), I'm the doorman for the order compound, and volunteer once a month doing digital marketing, and High Priest Rick has asked me to update all of you on how the progress of the game is going. Gotta say, it's better than picking up trash around the compound in this heat. Hope you're all staying cool! 

Custom Cultists
Apparently Rick (the one you know) has been trying to wrangle all the art and photos and everything around the cultist cards. Some of you who want to be in the game haven't responded to his email asking you to fill out a google form. You know who you are (apparently).

But if you don't know who you are, please be on the lookout for an email titled "Cult Crafter -> Become a Cultist - it's your turn to pick!" If you pledged to be a cultist and haven't seen this land yet, blame the folks ahead of you, not Rick! He'll get to you soon!

Printing update
Otherwise, I've been told to tell you that the Order has found some promising sourcing partners, so even with tariff wildness up in the air, we'll get this game printed and mailed out to you. Worst-case scenario, it might have to be classified as an unbound book for shipping purposes (don't laugh, the other Rick got an unbound book into an art showcase for book arts once), but we'll get the game to you for sure.

Lore Zine
Apparently the zine is coming along nicely, and (fingers crossed), we should be able to get the digital version out to everyone in the next week or so. That's cool.

Membership pins
You have no idea how long I've been waiting for a membership pin. I honestly do all of this as a volunteer for the Order, it's not like they pay me or anything, and I've been promised a pin for years, but finally now that all of you have helped Rick make this game, NOW he's finally getting the pins made.

Anyway, they should be landing soon, and he'll likely make me take photos to share with you next update.

Surveys
I'm supposed to apologize that surveys haven't gone out. He's hoping to get to that ASAP, but if you're mad about it, feel free to yell at him, but wait until tomorrow when he doesn't have any volunteers - we have nothing to do with his lateness.

Thanks again!
Okay, thank you! The Order appreciates your support, and the next update will likely be brought to you by High Priest Rick (not the doorman Rick writing this update). 

Thanks again! 
Rick (for High Priest Rick)
