Kai, as much as I want to commence with the prize selection(s) and winners getting their pick of the available items, can we 'hold' on this maybe one or two days, please? I have a "fish on the line" that I really want to add to the prize pool, if it becomes available, and I should know in the next day or two at most. It's nothing earth shattering, but it definitely is one of those items that - if it's made available - may definitely change the order that things "go down", and - there's a slight possiblity that I might even get two, but I won't know until at least tomorrow, perhaps Monday (at the outside latest). If I don't know for absolute certain at that time, we'll go ahead and "close the loop", assuming that you are in fact ready, which you have not indicated just yet. (of course the way my luck is running here lately, you're probably sitting there composing the "winners in order of finish" list, but - maybe allow a day (or three at most) to let everybody double-check their results with what you have computed on your side? Just saying, I don't want to make it take another single day, but this might in fact change the entire order people pick - or not, but I''ll go out on a limb and state that if I get one of two of these, a lot of people might have to re-evaluate what they thought was their "first" (second and third) choices.

I'll drop another copy to you by email and PM here, just to insure that we don't cross over each other's paths.

Our beloved Eoghann has decided to donate a whole stash of decks to the voter who he feels voted most to their heart. :D :D
I'm just wondering, how will Eoghann determine who was most honest? Seems really tricky. Good luck with that decision. :lol: :lol:

I _did_ get a half a brick of Gina's "Sideshow" decks from Expert/Legends (don't remember which part did them, I'm certain it's on the KS campaign page), but it looks like that is a contribution and it's not for my benefit, so I am adding it to the stack of prizes: 1/2 brick of Sideshow tickets including a "Lobster Boy" special add-on card only available during the OG KS campaign to backers.

I don't see anywhere you have taken off and let people start picking out their new prizes.

If it will be anything like last year, all that needs to be done is to post the order of selection and then it pretty much takes care of itself from that point on.

Out of curiosity, are their any updates to the contents of the TBA/TBD tiers or are they just considered a surprise and that's part of the fun?

Specifically wondering about Tier 13 donated by MonteCarloJoe and Tier 24 donated by chach

A humble request for the mods. At some point it will get difficult to keep track of which tiers are taken. Could someone highlight the taken tiers? In red maybe? Sorry to ask anyone to work harder. I'm just hoping to avoid any confusion.

Yes, that would help, but I would also suggest each person when picking copy this section and simply add their selected tier to their name. Placing the block using code tags makes it easy to select for copy and also won't take up as much room with integrated scroll window. This also will make it easy for those after to see who is next, although it's always good to specifically call out who is next. I'm pretty sure if you use @username they get notified if using tapatalk as well, unless it's not implemented here. @Cbkimble is up next! :D
