When you edit a post with a link you have to remove the following suffix that gets added on for some reason: " onclick="window.open(this.href);return false;
Thank you! Fixed :D

A little anticipation - here is the full list of the Idols with a quick explanation of their area of influence:

Idol of Silence (tranquility, peace, stillness)
Idol of Abnegation (chastity, diets, abstinence)
Idol of Curiosity (travel, discovery)
Idol of Legacy (family, kids)
Idol of Romance (love, marriage)
Idol of Dreams (realizing yourself)
Idol of Art (painting, music, create or enjoy beauty)
Idol of Science (future medicine and discoveries)
Idol of Connection (social relations, friends)
Idol of Money (luck, $$$, wealth without effort)
Idol of Media (lifestyle, BE a celebrity, fame)
Idol of Show (Movies, Sport, worship celebrities/heroes)
Idol of Technology (self-explaining :-)
Idol of Wellness (exercise, body building, health)
Idol of Knowledge (study, knowledge, wisdom)
Idol of Vanity (beauty, selfies)
Idol of Hedonism (fun, sex, enjoy here and now)
Idol of Conformism (belong to a larger group)
Idol of Vengeance (revenge, justice)
Idol of Ecology (nature, animals, planet)
Idol of Ideology (politics, patriotism)
Idol of Games (have fun, dodge problems)
Idol of Consumerism (eat, buy, spend!)
Idol of Work (produce, wealth, power)

Some are on the side of the Goddess of Hope, the others on the God of Fear's (I won't tell for now, so you can play guessing) :uggrin:
This post was available as a poll on my Patreon - I have asked people to vote their favourite.

I hope you like the Idols I have picked, they should cover a good range of the nowadays believings.

See you Friday!

I have to say that this one was VERY fun to design - so it took a lot of time but not much effort.

Oh, I almost forgot - every Idol has a minion, so there are 2 characters per card :P

So you get two idols for the price of one? That's an amazing deal even on it's own ;)

Oh no! Minions are no Idols, they just symbolize their power.
But every deck will include several nihilistic blessings that will bring money, love and luck - so yes, they are awesome deals :uggrin:

Wait a sec... eternal happiness is not included? I might request a refund then! :ugthink:

Lol wow, we got 4 of the first 5 backers on here! Sweet! Someone actually posted in comments of the KS campaign that he's backer #4, so I guess we do know who the first 5 are! :)

Great job Adonael/badpete/deck on first 5!!

Thanks to all superfast backers that are already aboard! ^_^
I am really grateful.

@Pierre - Your sr manager looks like the Idol of Work, probably (one of the scariest one IMHO)

@Harvonsgard - Goddess of Hope can grant basically anything. She just don't keep promises, sometimes :(

In the end with project like these the position of when you backed means nothing since there are no limited rewards like 1 of 1

Like that wonderful $1200 package from Dale Mathis that I got for $1 hehehe I like to bring that one up once in a while

My services will be up for hire if anyone wants the Vanda 1/1 pledge on his upcoming series :ugking:

Ignore Pierre (or hire him before I do). I am fairly sure he is a bot anyway. Maybe he can just stop time. However he does it, he/it can be the first to pledge whatever he wants or buy whatever comes out.

Probably a newbie question, but how do you check what # backer you are? I woke up this morning and pledged pretty groggy-eyed and then went back to sleep, don't remember seeing a backer number. Anyways, congrats on another successfully funded campaign! (even though there's still 17 days left to go haha)

That's amazing.

Not quite the same but I did get a unique tuck with the Grid Series One cards for being backer #1 on Luke Wadey's first campaign; it's one of my favourite items in my collection.

Sounds like the Black Friday raffle I entered at my local boardgame store. 1x $5 ticket and I won $3k worth.

Backer 30 here, pledge confirmed after 90 seconds.
