Tell us about the other Kickstarter projects you've funded here.

I put some money towards a Minecraft documentary a while back, getting a collectors set with it when they finish making it.

I've never pledged before. It'd need to be something pretty special to get me to do it.

I could never get into Minecraft, despite being a huge game freak.

I've never pledged for another project mainly because I have yet to see something captivating as well as cheap. Most of the highly funded projects I see are ridiculously overpriced (like that silly iPod watch project that has raised close to a million dollars - it has so much wrong with it it's unbelievable).

I like projects that actually GIVE to the backers by providing discounts and free swag. That's what I went for with ours. After all, the backers are the people who make you who you are. They matter above all else, and so to swindle them out of their money is just heinous.

That being said, I've seen some amazing projects that I wish I could afford to fund, such as Cineskates.

Yeah, those skates were very cool. There's a lot of photography product design on Kickstarter, I just need to buy a decent camera before even bothering. The skates give a nice effect, albeit only on really smooth surfaces.

I've noticed a majority of the kickstarter projects are films, shows and music groups, which is a little annoying. It's not too easy to find newly added product design projects either, which is what I'm most interested in.

If I hadn't just received a Marc Jacobs wallet as a gift, I would have pledged for a Jetsam as well. Brilliantly unique + eco-friendly idea, and they look sweet!

Jetsam wallet...I should check these out

loldudex2 · « **Reply #11 on:** October 21, 2011, 04:01:43 PM »

I got 6 Revision 1 decks

sinsandman · « **Reply #12 on:** October 21, 2011, 07:46:59 PM »

That is the exact amount I got too, Levi. $30

loldudex2 · « **Reply #13 on:** October 21, 2011, 07:52:01 PM »

Yah, They look pretty sweet and detailed.

sinsandman · « **Reply #14 on:** October 21, 2011, 07:54:12 PM »

I actually think they lack something that the other full custom decks have...they seem plain, but I still got some

loldudex2 · « **Reply #15 on:** October 21, 2011, 07:58:07 PM »

I just thing the sheer detail of the deck is incredible. Also, I like the ace of spades a lot.

sinsandman · « **Reply #16 on:** October 21, 2011, 07:59:18 PM »

Deciding factor for me will be their handling. As it is now well documented, I am not happy with CC.

loldudex2 · « **Reply #17 on:** October 21, 2011, 08:02:51 PM »

Why not? Did you have a problem with their "Brimstone" decks?

sinsandman · « **Reply #18 on:** October 21, 2011, 08:09:32 PM »

I have a problem with them not giving a damn about their supporters. But enough about that, read around..you will see my rants lol

loldudex2 · « **Reply #19 on:** October 21, 2011, 08:10:56 PM »

Didn't they not have enough decks or something?
