Fishing For Compliments by Pixel Initiative (ill. Stacey Jay Kelly)

[charlie81dbz]

A bit late to the coin debate, but I love to grab a coin if the design is good and price is reasonable. I think the double fish on one side and the AoS on the reverse would look best. I like the other design as well, but it's a bit on the busy side and most people on this forum tend to prefer the least amount of text possible, lol.

Yes Ma'am. I like a women with authority. Welcome to the wonderful world of Twitter. I 'm glad your using other social media to promote your cards. Twitter is like throwing shit on a wall. Sometimes is sticks. Most of the time it falls on the floor. Your doing great keep it up... 27%

Here is the new final coin design. I am going to add this to the project as soon as I have some idea of price. I notice other Kickstarter members have requested £13 to add a coin onto their rewards.

Would £12 be a decent price for this Antique finish Double sided, SIlver coin. I will request 100 coins so they will be limited but added as a stretch goal. I would require this to be a stretch goal and so can only add this as an add on to the original deck rather then as a reward. Has anyone added a product to their project after launching. Be great to hear feedback...

[Pixel Initiative]

Perhaps it would better to add as a stretch goal and the offer 1 coin to all backers over a certain amount.

Some laminated mock ups. MPC sample deck is delayed but I wanted to roughly demo the card back fan....

maybe provide the fishing hook as a souvenir ? seems a unique momento

Another card fan of my rough laminated mock, snap shots from the early process...

I have been shared by Paul Daniels. He is from my home town Wigan. Magician celebs looks after there homies...

[MagikFingerz]

That's awesome, Stacey!

Paul Daniels always reminds me of this Rowan Atkinson skit:

Ha ha, yes I always think of the Louis Theroux documentary with him, very strange.

Hit, 35% today, had some great encouragement from folks too. I'd like to thank everyone for the support so far. I've managed to connect with other creators now too and I'm really impressed with the society behind playing cards.

Your courts and pip didn't have the updated design thats why you didn't show them in the video. Cool music

[Pixel Initiative]

Exactly right MPC - do take a long time to deliver so the new deck isnt here yet. But someone requested the backs in motion and I was certainly able to do that. If I show the front it will invite more discussion regarding the old design which are different now so I will wait.... Thanks for comments. Im still impressed with MPC text deck though pretty cool. Just a shame the postage was severely delayed...

[Eoghann]

Looking good! Hope the project picks up more steam, but it seems to be chugging along.

[MagikFingerz]

Ok, time for some tough love: That was a terrible video. Speeding it up combined with the stressful music, and the switching from close up to really far away was just... awful. I cringed throughout the whole thing, the poor handling skills notwithstanding. Slowing it down and having a less frantic soundtrack would make a huge difference.

Now, I still love the cards, I'm still a backer, but I would recommend that future videos be done by someone more skilled in displaying playing cards and editing videos (I would offer my services if I didn't live in the middle of nowhere).

Lol I couldn't breathe when the vid was playing lol, send tom a proto to play with, might be a little too late but I'm sure you will get a much better vid !

Nah, it would take way too long. I'm sure there are plenty of people closer than me who are also proficient with cards and editing

[Pixel Initiative]

Yes, I did beg forgiveness before hand so I am aware.... Thanks for watching. I will hopefully get my final test deck soon with new pips to create full demo. MPC just take a while to deliver. But I think at least shows the card backs... in motion for now...

If you have some footage to show me I will be happy to do this in future.... Does anyone have any footage of them handling cards that they produced themselves (the footage not the cards) who is willing to create videos like this?

[Pixel Initiative]

The cards hook each other when lined up for solitaire...

Updated Tuck

Kickstarter Fishing For COmpliments Playing Card Deck. New Launch, limited print run.

[sprouts1115]

@Pixel - Got a 404 on that link. Looks like you might not make it this time. Don't jump ship to soon; You have a fan base. It is your old backers. You can make a better video for your relaunch. Take your time. This is not the best time to relaunch...

[Pixel Initiative]

Hi there. Yes I agree, Black friday week is no fun for any Kickstarter.

To be honest I've been harvesting research this time more then anything, its been a roller coaster of advise and excitement regardless. I have really picked up a lot, so its been encouraging, most peoples comments are re the time of year. I have created lots of board games with another print company in the past who create decks for a fraction of the costs (covered by what I have currently raised) but the main goal is to get the Kickstarter right and achieve the Legends deck so they will be really nice quality.

Thanks for all the support so far, I've really enjoyed the experience and I think United Cardists has something really great going here.

Best wishes more updates soon.
