The tendril kickstarter project has ended and successfully funded congrats xmetal your hard work payed off into making this deck .

Paul Carpenter · « **Reply #301 on:** March 11, 2012, 12:04:06 AM »

Thanks to everyone that backed the project! We ended up at a whopping 208% which is kind of crazy and far beyond what I expected. Quite amazing. I have to publicly thank my wife for her support and marketing wizardry that helped tweak some of the details and get it to where it ended up.

I've tracked all the transactions this evening and I think pretty much everything went through. I saw only a couple failures and issues, so it looks like almost everyone that pledged (and there are 1,011 of them) had a successful transaction which is fantastic. Just have to wait out the holding period and then we can rock and roll.

I'm looking forward to getting the decks done, the contract is already with USPCC, should be on the printing schedule in the next few weeks! I will as always try my best to keep everyone informed of what is going on.

Onwards to Aurum I say!

Finally! We've been waiting for these cards to get to the next step. Congratulations on funding this awesome project.
I can't wait to get the decks and I'm excited for everything that Encarded will bring us.

Congrats on getting it funded! But I think I am going to stop buying Kickstarter decks, I can`t stand the wait to get them, I have never recieved any decks pledged for on KS. It isn`t really worth the wait to me.

Congrats Paul!! It's an amazing deck and it deserved all the success it achieved. I can't wait to get this deck and I wish you further success in your future projects

Mine didn't go through but I fixed it. I have 2 cards and I never know which one's going to have money in it when it comes to stuff like this.

Congrats!

Well done on your success!

Looking forward to receiving these and seeing what's next!

Amazon processes all the payments immediately but holds the money for 14 days before it can be disbursed to my account. So, while I technically have (almost) all the money already I can't do anything with it for two weeks.

I underand how you feel, I haven't gotten any of them either. But I think a lot of that be made better by quality info and updates. I hope to give everyone as much info as I can so they know when each step is happening. I'm working to push this through as fast as I can! In my case everything is done, has been done for a month, so all we need is USPCC to print it up.

That's great, but don't feel pushed to update regularly if there is no news to update us/your pledgers with. While there will be some people asking every day, "any news?", most of the 1011 backers will be happy with updates that actually provide new information. Of course, if you have new info every day then that's welcome!

Congrats Paul, I'm glad it was such a great success....now get me my decks

xZEROx · « **Reply #314 on:** March 11, 2012, 05:46:10 PM »

Congratulations! Now hopefully USPC would get them printed soon without putting this project on delay for some other bigger companies.

That is good, I ordered my black and white actuators and Vortexes 4 months age, it just gets to be too long of a wait. It is nice that you have everything done and ready to print.

I already got the email to fill out my address and all that stuff from the Tendril kickstarter, has anybody else gotten one yet ?

Yes. I think everyone will have received it around the same time. I added a sneaky request for a signature in my comments, Paul. Don't mind me!

Billywiz · « **Reply #318 on:** March 25, 2012, 06:51:47 PM »

Lol I did the same thing in my comments.

LeonJL · « **Reply #319 on:** March 25, 2012, 06:53:13 PM »

Yeap, got my request as well, good to see how this deck is progressing. Thank you for the updates Paul!

Kanped · « **Reply #320 on:** March 25, 2012, 07:22:14 PM »

I got mine. Good stuff. Alex's records for fastest turnover as well as highest $ raised seem to be in contention, now.

Evan · « **Reply #321 on:** March 25, 2012, 07:40:49 PM »

I got the survey thing too. I got super excited when I saw it

I asked for 1 of them signed too

And I was happy to click the yes button for making a review

Paul Carpenter · « **Reply #322 on:** March 25, 2012, 09:42:48 PM »

Thanks guys, we are moving right along. The Eco clip order is going in, the special gold foil seals are on their way, packaging supplies are coming, etc etc etc. I'm hoping that USPCC will keep their quoted timeframe and I can get these decks out ASAP!

My goal is to get the Kickstarter decks out as quickly as I can so that I can clear the room, get the leftover decks in my store and work on the other products and my next deck. Things have been real smooth so far so I hope that continues.

I too checked off that I will do a video review! I may not have as many views or subscribers as the others, but I will do anything I can to get this company a good reputation, and try to promote you as well as I can.

Paul Carpenter · « **Reply #324 on:** March 26, 2012, 05:06:08 PM »

Latest, from the mouth of USPCC today:

"You’re on the schedule to have your cards printed next week…I’m hoping we’ll get everything shipped the week of April 16th at the latest."
