I am really looking forward to this deck, I only pledged for one but it will still be nice to add the the collection. Something just really appeals to me about the colour combinations in this deck.


P.s

I know there have been some backlash against CC cards in other threads. Do not bring those up in this thread please. Use this thread to discuss, what I think, is a pretty nice deck. Thanks!

Your solution: Sleep in your car, eat Ramen, and walk. You're practically living for free!

That's great! But still, I wish it could reach the goal too.

Which inbox? I didn't get any massage either here or kickstarter account.

It was stated at kickstarter
"Right now anyone who is pledging under $50 will receive 2 dice and anyone pledging $50 or more will get the full 5 dice set.  Many people wanted all 5 dice even with a smaller pledge, and I agree, there needs to be a way.  I have decided that anyone (under $50) who adds $0.99 to their pledge amount will get all 5 dice. "

So you will get 2 dice.

Nope. My goal is to create the best deck of cards I can. When the option is upgrade inks, upgrade quality control, upgrade stocks and add new features, that will always take priority over something like dice.

That, and the fact that we're building a new website with big features and whatnot, there is no money in the budget for t-shirts or anything similar. The small amount of profit I will be making if we reach $30k+ will go completely to reducing the goal for the second deck.

It'd maybe be something to think about for the future.  I know it's early days, so maybe a long time from now, away from Kickstarter you could offer things like that.  Personally, I'd love to see an Aethercards coin come with a brick... just putting that out there.

Oh for sure. This is our first deck, and our first Kickstarter. We need to set a good foundation first.
