I assume the logic was that instead of knowingly lose one of the ten EB they gave me my own hehe which means 1 extra for the gang hahahaha I laughed when i saw that

Please tell me you got it.

Of course I got it. Had to be quick when I realized I had my own level hahaha

Could not resist the temptation to make a joke...

Risks and challenges

"Hmm... dunno. Maybe World War III ?"


This cracks me up! Lotrek, you might have jinxed yourself...and the rest of the world!

There's a rumor going around that one of the 10 EBs will open up in 5 minutes at the top of the hour, just sayin...

are you changing your mind already?

I didn't get an EB, in the next hours I hope to get an EB from another project. I was there at 5:00 pm sharp, seems like it went live at 5:03 pm.

yeah it did go live a few minutes after 5pm eastern

One of our own got the investment tier. It's up to them if they want to be known.

$12,500 in an hour - not bad!

Investment Tier?
You mean Mega Backer!

that would be me

Couldn't resist
I would no doubt buy 2 of each of Lotrek's next 5 decks anyway.
The savings was just too amazing to let it sit there.

Congrats. It's definitely a good item to have picked up.

And funded in precisely two hours!

@Lotrek - I noticed you left the flaps blank. What is your symbol of your deck? Put it on the flaps. When they first open the deck it's very important. You could make it a mystery. Just tell them something will be on the flap, but you can't see it now...

When I picked up the Venexiana Gold deck at the P.O., the clerk lady said "Those are beautiful stamps". I'll be getting more packages from Greece this year. Lotrek you also mentioned after this project, all your future decks would be received before 40 days which is very good news.

I believe I remember getting in before you once. I was #2 on this one, and the "Pierre's Early Bird" level was already taken. I guessed at the time that Lotrek had crafted it that way, but I should have known better.

CP there are lots of time I don't really rush to pledge. For me it's not about being first, it's about getting the level I want. There are basically no more 1/1 pledges or very rarely so as long as I get what I want it's all good.
Like the Spirit decks just now.. I was no where close to being first..I was driving and picking up my kids at school and managed to get in on the EB with my phone. That is all that matters. But I have to admit Lotrek's pledge level made me laugh

I'm kicking myself in the ass for not looking at all the tiers. I would've jumped on it.

Let's be cateful: the Imperial editions that he for all intents makes himself, yes. There's no way to get USPCC, Expert nor Legends to hurry up...

Congrats. Not only is it an awesome deal, but you get the first and last number of each deck in the Treasure series. #1 and #555.

If it wasnt gone, i think i might have jumped in on that tier. I think its a pretty awesome deal !

All the pledges were open when I looked but I felt duty bound to pledge on my tier hehe

Headed to find a pillow - just crested $18k or 120%

N/M It's up. Tempted by the Mega Backer...

If anyone did grab this and changes their mind let me know, I'll happily take it off your hands.

That'd be our member UtterFool. Don't think he's going to let go of it though, seemed pretty happy about it in his earlier post.

Something wicked is to be announced for the campaign...

Custome hand built display cases with the backers info hand carved into each one?

Edit, just got your update. Man you're going to keep us in suspense right up til the end. There's two spots for the 4 decks left, I'm seriously debating on taking one before going to bed but don't want to lose my early bird. Grrrr. Damn choices!!

Edit #2. Ok folks, I made up my mind, as of right now there's an EB available. I'm too much of a fan and so when Lotrek says that something is killer and that you'll go "What? Are you serious? I must be dreaming!", I gotta believe him and up my ante. Now, does anyone need a kidney? I got one for sale. Or maybe it's time to unload one of my unbranded black reserve notes.

Noooo all the 4 deck tiers are gone! Lotrek why?????!!!! Hah

Just opened a few more 3 and 4 deck tiers.

People is going after the 4-deck tier like crazy after your announcement. Please... a sneak peak

They are all gone *again* lol. I need to liquidate a few decks of cards so I can increase my pledge on this project.

Planning on dropping an EB if anyone wants. This is too good to pass up.

Problem solved, thanks Lotrek!
