How many computers do you need?

LOL. My first love and obsession. Technology!

1 Gaming rig
1 laptop
2 file servers
1 media server
1 application server
1 Linux based firewall gateway
1 Hackintosh
1 Linux general purpose box

Add my family members machines and the total goes 17....

+1 for the hackintosh. Always thought those were interesting.

Just a note to everyone expecting to find "uncut sheet(s)" for this project at $25: after a note from Lake Michigan Mailers (the fulfillment center used by Requiem and Groteseque - amongst others) that the price for the heavy tubes used to deliver the uncut sheets had gone up, the price was changed to $30. Remember, unless H freezes over, this will actually dynamically change to both uncut sheets when the project hits the $30,000 stretch goal.

That reminds me, even though the concept has been used before, the actual term "dynamic rewards" hasn't (as I recall). There will be at least three dynamic rewards in this project - rewards that can change during the campaign. This one (uncut sheet => uncut sheets), bricks => split bricks, etc.

Hoping I can make it online at the launch as I have another committment right at that time. Don't you all go snagging the early birds before I can get in there! Any word if there will be limited early bird pricing? I assume I can make it in before any limited edition options are gone.

Everybody gets EB pricing, basically. There is one limited tier and that's the first 20 bricks sold.

Hmm, care to share the KS preview link?

Nope. If Lorenzo wants to share it - he'll share it. It's not mine to share...

Ask maybe? He's been pretty open about it all.

Here's my review of the Heretic prototype I got from Lorenzo

MO, I wouldn't click on a "youtu.be" link on a bet.

It may be a totally legit domain name, but it reads like something set up by a phisherman.

I'm just sayin'.

youtu.be belongs to youtube.

If you click share on any video, a youtu.be link is what you're given.

Well...to wake up early or not wake up early...

I'll definitely be staying up after i get off watch at noon tomorrow. Refresh for 2 hours.

Yep, today is the day! (and we're down to the last 8 hours before launch)

Does the $30 uncut promo apply only to that tier? Or can $30 be added on for two uncuts from any tier?

Mike Ratledge wrote:Just to keep everyone in a tither:

Heretic launch

Oh wow, that is cool and so helpful. The launch is 3am my time though but I don't think i'll be getting a brick so I guess I'm good.

Eoghann wrote:Does the $30 uncut promo apply only to that tier? Or can $30 be added on for two uncuts from any tier?

I didnt really get the question.

One uncut costs $30. If noctis is unlocked you get also the noctis uncut automatically, so you have 2 uncuts for $30.

If you want 2 Lux uncut, it´s $60. And again, if noctis is unlocked, you also get the 2nd noctis uncut autumatically. You get 4 (2+2) for $60.

I´m going to write a FAQ

Lorenzo, i think the question is, can uncuts be an add-on or just limited to the tier. And the answer i believe is yes it can be added on.

Ps. Ill definitely be getting one =D

ah, well, it´s not limited, so add as many as you want
but consider that you cannot choose 2 lux or 2 noctis only.
It goes in pairs and it is the "limitation" of the promo

Other than the $95 Early Bird brick tier (limited to 20) and one other item, all of the items are available and can be added on to any other tier.

The other item is a group of three Heretic "Prototype 01" version decks that are precisely like the four seen in the various online reviews by David ("MagicOrthodoxy"), Phil DC, Ashley ("The Cardist") and Victor Miranda ("VJose32"). These are for sale to the first 3 people to claim them and nobody can have more than 1! Other than these two items I have listed here, anything else can be added on to any other tier. If that changes we will clarify it by putting an "Add On" pricing guide in the campaign page.

I didn't want everybody to be frothing at the mouth because of the Prototype decks, but as of now there are still 3 of them left and they will be available at 3PM. (note that because of that limitation you can not add an Early Bird brick to this single item).

...and we're down to the last 6 hours before launch!

What I meant is, if I choose let's say a brick tier, can I add $30 for a lux and Noctis (it's definitely getting unlocked, you're just being modest with the "if" ) pair or is that promo only valid in that' specific tier?

I think the promo is for all, think of it as an automatic upgrade

Of course. Anybody can add $30 to any tier and get the uncut Heretic Lux and IF (yeah, right!) the campaign gets to $30,000 pledged then you automatically get BOTH that and the Heretic Noctis uncut sheet as well.

Geez those prototype decks...why do you do this Mike?

Awesome! Everything's clear now. Thanks!

Sorry, not certain that I understand the question. If you're asking why we (this is Lorenzo's art - I'm just helping out, didn't design a darned thing - thank goodness. As I've said before: "nobody wants my stick figures with smiley faces on them") have sent it (the prototype) to four different online reviewers? Each covers a different segment of the market, more-or-less. If you're asking why I (we?) want to make everybody rabid today? I'm hoping that's obvious: so when we launch the decks it will be funded in a day or two and Lorenzo can move on to improving this deck and look down the road at the next project as well.

I'm not an artist, and never have been. The artist is Lorenzo Gaggiotii of Stockholm, AKA "Design Killer" - born in Italy just to be clear(er).

If the question is "Why are there three of the prototype decks listed" (in the campaign), the answer is simply because he can. He had enough made to insure that we had a few and some to send to the 4 reviewers I listed in the first paragraph, and that left 3 of the total of 12. Everybody likes to have truly unique items, and these are exactly that. For all intents and purposes they are three unique items, maybe very close to each other, but - each is individually numbers and hand-signed by Lorenzo.

Haha definitely was looking for your second answer

Sigh, I will be sitting at my computer at 6am then I guess...curse you all

Cool, I thought so, but I wasn't certain - I even went back and added a third paragraph after I posted it the first time. Those three items are $50 each, and for that price you get something that you just can't get any place else - ever again. (now - Lorenzo - go change the price to $75)

Precisely, Kai! It's those "Dynamic rewards" I tried to explain earlier. I suppose that I don't always do the best explanations...
