I may have spoken too soon - it seems to have plateaued
Get out there and PROMOTE, PROMOTE, PROMOTE Rick

Answer: For this KS campaign to fund!

[RickDavidson]

Hi all, just dropping in to say a quick thank you for the thread and the support. I love the passion in this forum I don't like to lurk but always have time for the UC crew.

Just a personal overview of what Wishers are about. I've created a range of custom decks over the years, but have never committed to creating the best 'traditional' deck I could. Over time you hear comments on things people dislike - the pips too small, the face cards are ugly etc. So in starting my new brand Sequel, I wanted to lay down a well balanced standard for play, magic, cardistry - with some subtle influence from my past decks. If owning the collectible first batch, and helping launch the new brand appeals, of course I would love the support. But for a more creative custom deck, my next project might just fit the bill, hope to launch that early in the new year. But I'm 100% focused on getting this baby across the line first.

Thanks again all. It's been a crazy year, I hope you're all doing great

[MagikFingerz]

Great to have you here, Rick, as always!

Are you open to making new tiers? What I feel is missing is a split half-brick, for us folks that want more than a pair but are too cheap for bricks and the Limited Edition

[Honeybee]

'The Collector' comes close Tom - 5 decks but you will also see from Rick's answer to my KS comment, that he is open to creating a new tier

[RickDavidson]

A set of standard courts that look appealing. Not for me personally but I wishers this campaign well!

I see what you did there.

No problem at all. It's always tricky creating a set of options without overdoing it. I'll update tonight, thanks for the suggestion.

[Fenrir]

Looking forward to Wishers and your more custom future project next year Rick!

[MagikFingerz]

Just backed for a Mixed Six.

On an unrelated note, the phrase "Your mouth is writing checks your ass can't cash" just popped into my head for some reason...

[RickDavidson]

Thank you very much Fen, Tom, and crew. Will see what I can do for you guys, always appreciate the support

[Pro-Pain]

I tell you what, I do like how the queens came out in this one. They're the highlight of the offering here.

The Ace of Spades and Joker, not quite there... I think if that Oversized Pip was done differently, it would go well. Jokers feel a bit flat.

I do like how things just seem more... crisp there. As a gameplayer, these go quite well.

Considering the standard court choice, and yes, I do like the redrawn courts as noted. Also considering it's more for gameplayers, it goes pretty well!

[RickDavidson]

Thank you Pro. I am right in the middle of enhancing the joker, let's see where it ends up.

Just advance notice for the UC crew before I post shortly, I'm offering the very last, rare decks I have of Origins Shadows and De Novo. If they are on your list, the numbers are small. Thanks team.

15 days more to go with just under $2000 to hit.

Does the creator get to see the number of people who've saved the project? Curious to know the conversion rate for those who save till the final 2 days.

[Honeybee]

You must have a different currency converter to me Eric. Nearly $2,000 to hit by mine ($1,872us)

Rick probably needs to create a little more excitement. I am thinking - something to have some of the current 99 backers upgrade (another $40 from half of them would do it)

[Eric Lee]

Doh, thanks for the correction. I was posting that after hours of reading reports.

[Honeybee]

You have proved to be a prophet Eric - no correction needed
The campaign has jumped out of the ground and now there is
< $1,000us needed

[radix]

I really like the clean court designs. Just added my pledge. It's inching closer to being funded!

[Honeybee]

It still has to get there.
Rick has has made spending $100nz (=$60us) quite appealing for he is throwing in an additional pro deck ($13us when purchased singularly)
eg If you buy the Mixed Six (Tier 6.5) you will get 7 decks for $63us. Only $9 a deck

[Honeybee]

Somebody has dropped their 'The Collector Early' so if you are US based you could snap up
1 special Founders deck, 3 Pros (you get an extra pro for spending $100NZ) and 2 Classics
For just $86US and that INCLUDES DELIVERY

[Honeybee]

Funded !

I wasn't a big fan of the standard court cards, but the more I looked at them, the more I liked this deck.
I have LUXX PALME, GREILL, and COBRA V2. I like the slightly narrower index of the COBRA because it looks nicer when fanned or spread.

I have a hard time buying a deck with a classy standard court design because of the price comparison with bicycle deck. I know it's not fair, but I can't help but compare them to the “Bicycle on Sale”.

I wanted the project to succeed, so I changed my pledge to Dual Bricks PLUS (the free international shipping was a big plus), and it seems that the number of supporters is increasing, partly because Giovanni recommended it on Chaos Playing Cards project? I may lower the pledge level if we get enough.

As rousselle said, I like Rick's interpretation of the standard face. I prefer it a little different from the standard, but I'll look forward to that next time. looking forward to receiving Origins Rouen 1567. (I think I'm actually more looking forward to this one.)

[Honeybee]

We now have to stay funded!
62 hours to go so we need to stay up there for another 38 hours

2 more Collectors Early have opened up so once again, if you are US based you could snap up
1 special Founders deck, 3 Pros (you get an extra pro for spending $100NZ) and 2 Classics
6 decks for just $86US and that INCLUDES DELIVERY

Congratulations Rick

107% funded inside the final 24 hours and the project is assured

[Honeybee]

It ended 110% funded.
A couple of days from the end there was a brilliant pledge at the top tier - what with the bonus deck for every $100nz spent, I figure he/she will receive 61 decks AND Rick is shipping them for free. (If they are not from the USA, I would imagine that shipping would be massive). Along with 61 decks, that is unbelievable value for around $482us
