Great looking deck, love the ornates and on this the look of the four colour suits especially, just got in under the wire too with an hour to go on the pre-orders!

Re: Something Wicked This Way Comes Part 3: "CardLauncher"!

Just got your latest cardlauncher email, for me the bit that fell flat was the payment element. Is there an option to test purchase items for as an example 1 cent just to test it really works or are there fee's involved with that for us or you?

Re: Kids Deck by Justin Meitz Now live on KS

Don't think there is much chance these will hit $30,000, there has been a major downfall in most funding of decks on KS lately, lots of failures and most of them have a third or half of the funding of this one. Doesn't seem like a good time to be launching decks on KS. Maybe the tide has finally tu...

Re: Something Wicked This Way Comes Part 3: "CardLauncher"!

As an 'international backer' I do not mind too much when the next attempt to launch is, I would suggest less of your current batch of Mormons (is that code?) do the programming for you because they do not seem very good at it and do it at the start of the week, you then have a full weeks support if ...

Looks really interesting, I appreciate you are teasing interest but it would be great to see some images of the cards too. Ornate is awesome and the detail on this is impressive based on the image on close up on FB https://fbcdn-sphotos-d-a.akamaihd.net/hphotos-ak-xpf1/v/t1.0-9/10513432_509941139138...

Re: Something Wicked This Way Comes Part 3: "CardLauncher"!

Keep it simple, like the KS ToS. The problem with pledge limits is that you then limit what backers can spend, $1k seems low if as an example the top tier offers your name on every deck as an 'executive producer' or similar and those tend to be in the $1k zone. For me MUCH more important and the rea...

Re: "Venexiana Dark" by Lotrek: funding CardLauncher 15-Augu

I really do not care, run the site, work the kinks out but I am already anticipating that this deck, venexiana dark will be one of those I have to pick up through a third party next January which is always a bit of a crap shoot.

Superb artwork. Would having the copyright on just the tuck and either a gaff or the Ace of Spades not be sufficient protection? It really detracts from the deck. I quite like the quotes but also do not like having to re-arrange cards when playing due to no lower pip. On a side note, I passed on thi...

Re: Playing Card Designer Sketch Pad (KS)

This seems like a very unnecessary campaign - you can download and print templates for free plus surely the pad would make more sense if it had the required number of pages for a full deck and the joker etc, so a minimum 54 sheets?

Maybe I was just lucky but the elite decks have been one of the few projects on kickstarter to at least fulfil their pledge reward, late but not too bad, several projects are six months plus behind. The quality, and product, at least for me was exactly as shown. I don't think it represented great va...
