SIDESHOW - I'm starting to have a lot of fun with this. :)

NATE!!!! I have the poker chip plaques and some chips here in house! (I purchased samples so i could see their awesomeness before I started the campaign!)
I'll get the chips and plaque out in tomorrow's mail to ya!! When the cut cards arrive, I'll get one of those out to you (for your help with that other post) and then fingers crossed the campaign funds so I can send you the decks!!

How do you know if you're on track for kickstarter?? I've read a lot of websites and can't find the answer!!! Am I supposed to be at a certain funding percentage by the end of day 3???
Mannnn I sure get a ton of emails from companies trying to sell me kickstarter marketing!!! Do you like any of these 3rd party groups???

Eventually you can look at Kicktraq, but this early it's pretty far off and really isn't perfect anyhow - http://www.kicktraq.com/projects/str8ga ... projection

You can look up other decks to see how they trended. Typically there is a big rush at the beginning for the first 3-5 days, then the last 48 hours after reminders go out. Anything outside of that is usually marketing efforts or happenstance (being plugged by a 3rd party or being highlighted by KickStarter). I would say this stands a good chance, but time will tell.



Every project is different, but here's a few first time producer decks around your goal

have you had any experience with BackerKit? flashcards suggested it - looks cool and they seem really nice there.
Will it help me get some street cred??

I think backerkit is a great resource. It allows pledgers to split their payments. The only downside to assuring use of backerkit is that you have to get funded first. If someone knows you're using it, they may not pledge for everything they want during the campaign, yet wait to add on more items in backerkit. If you use backerkit, I'd suggest waiting till you've gotten funded and then making the announcement.

That makes total sense - thank you for the suggestion!!!!!

Hi Guys!! I had a deck printed by the Make Playing Cards Company to see if I liked how my artwork looked in real life. Here's a few different angles of the box so you can see!
The final product will be printed by the EPCC if I get funded. (fingers crossed!)

It looks excellent! Very beautiful, Gina!
Hope this gets funded!
