This Saturday at noon EST we open add-on pledges for hand made wooden boxes for playing cards with a secret method of accessing the compartment inside: https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/matifu/rongorongo-2/posts/975665 The boxes will be available through our RongoRongo Backers website only. The l...

rousselle, the composition was built around pointed parts of hearts & spades to the outside. i did both versions of the orientation (one as per your description) and the current one is much more visually consistent. the visual consistency was more important to me than the rules you describe, but...

You are making a valid point badpete69. I think we have enough of a buffer between two campaigns with new pictures to clarify what campaign we run now, so one thread should be fine. The campaign we run now is: https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/matifu/rongorongo-2" onclick="window.open(t...

Rouselle -- you are looking at wrong cards. Please refer to RongoRongo 2 cards, your pictures are incorrect. You are absolutely correct about the butts. Birdman, however, is drawn in a specific manner, typically "upside down." The current position is consistent with the way Birdman is illu...

The threads should not have been merged.
The title is also incorrect -- RongoRongo is NOT a Bicycle deck

Yes, but people keep pasting cards from RongoRongo 1 campaign into RongoRongo 2 at other thread and comment on lack of consistency using incorrect pictures. There are too many wrong pictures at the other location creating a high level of confusion without any sense or reason. RongoRongo 2 is a compl...

We are running $1 BIRDMAN SPECIALS every day at noon so far; today the winner got 2 decks + 1 coin + 1 pair of dice.
Tomorrow we take a break; the next $1 BIRDMAN SPECIAL is on Wednesday noon EST.

RongoRongo 2 now live on Kickstarter

The animal is half man, half bird, or Birdman. The cult of Birdman and amazing Birdman races on the Island lasted until the arrival on Europeans. Every day (so far) at noon we have a $1 Birdman race for BIRDMAN SPECIAL -- today $1 winner got 2 decks + 1 coin + 1 pair of dice. Tomorrow we take a brea...

I designed hundreds of Captain Morgan labels and packaging in a span of several years. I remember many meetings at Seagrams when people would just stop talking to admire Don’s artwork. He was truly admired by everybody involved in the design and the production of branding and packaging for Captain M...

Thanks StanKindLee, it's great to see you among our backers.

Thanks Tom for all your help and the pledge, it was a true pleasure to speak to you.

Please, stop with this loaded language. I don't need a financial advice, I have a degree in the field. I run 3 companies, consulted for 15+. I have never had a single lawsuit or a single complain filled against me in my life. USPCC - correct; EPCC - no, if we hit $13K we will not need 1000 runs each...

You can pay early bird $11 for signed decks until they run out at 200 decks each (roughly half of them were sold yesterday). After that decks #201 to #1000 are $13 -- these are 1,000 deck limited print, so the cost of the setup and print is extremely high. The "another card company" is wel...

A member of your forum made a very solid argument in our off-line chat about the pricing of a single deck in this campaign. Following his advice we are reducing the price of the single deck to $12 and I will implement a few other changes later in the week. I apologize to anyone who thought the prici...

Thanks for your input strag, you make very valid points. We are not going to agree on the funding period, but I believe you are correct in your tiers, addon and bee comments. We are going to make some adjustments, run a vote for the third deck tomorrow (Monday) and release two more decks probably on...

We used a lot of campaigns for the model. My comment/example was in response to the suggestion that we did not do any planning or research when we spent an extreme amount of time preparing for this campaign and we have a very detailed financial data about many campaigns. You are correct with 9gag ev...

thanks for the link MagikFingerz, it was very helpful and strangely confusing at the same time.
when adding a new deck on KS, what is the preferred method: a new pledge, add-on released on a specific day/time?

no jock, i never considered the pink one, but i would love to learn whatever u know about multiple decks so i don't offend someone in the process.
the experience on this side is quite similar to going through anal probing at the airport security, so I will proceed cautiously...

To anyone with long conspiracy theories -- please relax. I included my bio with the project, here's the link: http://matifu.com/tomas.html I completed thousands of projects in my life, many of them are well known to most of you. This is the first project for Matifu on KS. Matfu was created to design...

montecarlojoe - yes, RongoRongo was the actual system of glyphs used on Easter Island. It's one of only few independent languages invented in the entire human history. There are several links at the bottom of KS page for anyone who would like to learn more about Easter Island myths and culture. rous...

mike -- you are correct, there are discernible patterns for K Q J. thanks for the cincinnati info -- i'll correct it.
lolo -- thanks for your pledge

Hi Jock,
Give masks some time -- it took me a while to get used to them.
