The fact that he has any $50 backers astounds me, especially when there's no actual description of what you get at that reward tier.  It's just some rambling description about what other decks their printer can make from their designs.  He did mention black and white - at least that would burn the eyes a little less...

This was a good example of the terror that could have been released on mankind, when a moron gets his hands on a bootleg version of Photoshop and learns a few filters.

I'm not a backer of the project, but I just took a look at the updates-section. The latest update is for backers only, but the headline reads "Quick Re-Launch for My Backers"...

It's coming back to life :P

He says "Quick re-launch with a super-low goal, but only for a duration of 3 days" (Yes, I'm a backer...great gift for Dirty Santa! These are too bad to pass up!). Trouble is, he provides no link to the re-launch so as far as I can tell, there is a mention of a re-launch of the project, but no sign of the project out there anywhere. Maybe I'm just missing something somewhere.

The update...

"We Barely Fell Short of the Funding Goal !  I am now offering an Immediate Re-launch of this same project with a much lower goal for the benefit of my Backers. Duration is only Three Days. So if you Still want your Deck ... Simply Re-new your pledge and as soon as the funds are deposited into my account I will place the order with my print facility and have it created and shipped directly to you. Thanks Guys. Ron"

BTW, the images below, labeled as "Latest Creations", were included in Update 27. I have included them here for your viewing...pleasure?

Update!! All is explained in the latest update. He is waiting on approval for the re-launch.
Don, the $50 tier is for a deck that includes many different versions of the face cards. Don't be shy, we know that's your level in this campaign! :-)

How many backers is he at now? On my personal project I had nearly 20 backers that were friends and family, I wouldn't be surprised if that was the case for them. I even backed my own project myself to see what the check out process was like. I wouldn't be surprised if he backed his own too.

Don, I posted those pics just for you! I knew that you'd be speeclesss! I was pretty much, let's call it AMAZED, myself! ;-)

It should be a great complimentary deck for my New York Lights! Well, that is if my retinas don't burn out first.

You know, he does pledge on a number of well designed decks.  You'd think he'd have a better handle on what sells and what doesn't.  To each his own.  I however will not own this deck.

$40 of $100 goal with 3 days to go. I'm sensing that the end of all perfectly working retinas may be near.

I get a feeling people are backing this so they can receive their cards and then poke fun at him...

A Kickstarter deck is 225% overfunded? This calls for a celebration!

People, in order for a list of his backers to appear, he needs a minimum of 10 backers.  He only has EIGHT.

It would surprise me not in the least to learn that he fronted the cash to get this stupid thing made.  I want to say it's the worst thing I've ever seen - but I can't see it, my eyes hurt from trying so much...
