You're braver than me. There is a guy on the boat that can turn a brand new, nice handling deck into a dirty, clumpy stack of cards that don't shuffle well in less than 6 hours. I keep any decks I bring with me away from him.

You brought the jester back to the tuck! :-) Well done, now I'll have to pull out my v0.1 and compare the cards to see what changed, but comments here are spot on. Great job, all in!

Just so people are watching closely, this campaign will have another as-yet-unknown twist.

(and, no - PM to me will not help. I really don't know this time)

We're about 11 days until launch time at this point, and things are getting close to "locked & loaded! ;)

I'm not sure those times line up...9AM in California is Noon in NYC.

Why not 17:17 GMT?

OK, it's official. As Bama surmised - launch will be precisely at 1717 UTC / GMT or "Zulu" for our military friends. Date was already announced, but Tuesday, 17-Feb if you missed it.

I have in hand four teases, to be posted here first and then broadcast on Facebook at or around noon NYC time on Wednesday, Friday, next Sunday & Monday to get us in the spirit for launch.

I'm not at liberty to discuss EB tier details, but suffice it to say that there are some juicy ones as well as one decks, bricks and the like.

1717Z is 5:17pm in London, 12:17pm in NYC, 9:17am in Los Angeles, 7:17pm in Stockholm and so forth. http://www.timeanddate.com is your friend elsewhere.

At time of writing, we are less than 10 days to launch.

We can't possibly pick a time to work for everyone, and Western Australia is bound to be amongst the worst this time. There is no solution, unfortunately. We tried to pick a time that worked or at least was not too painful for as many people as possible.

Backers are in almost every time zone around the world, and we wish there was some solution, but there is none. I can't imagine how painful it was for Lee McKenzie to run Bloodlines from Perth.

Lorenzo ninja edited his post I was referring to about a possible time change. But yes, it's still set for 1717 GMT or 0917 Pacific, 1217 Eastern so far as I know.

You must be confusing the great CST with mountain time zone. But that's understandable from someone that lives in the "armpit of California". :lol: :ugdance:
