If we are to continue, we need to define fair.

 

I usually define "fair" as "a term used by someone who wants something for themselves in the guise of getting something for others (and ignoring what they already have)." :D

 

More importantly, the Japanese Warhol chick is originally a fashion designer! :D

 

EDIT: Glad everything's fair now with the last update!

I can see that the petulant kids have taken over. Thanks for showing the level of maturity around here, I'm sure Reaper is proud of their boards gaining such a reputation.

It was a quite simple situation; if you didn't want to read what I and others wrote, all you had to do was not read the thread. But no, you had to keep arguing too and now this nonsense. So who exactly kept "this thing" alive?

If you thought I was just a troll, then you obviously didn't do the best thing one can do to a troll, ignore them.

 

I'm just trying to find out whether Reaper plans to ship out the paints incrementally over the next couple of months or stick to their original decision of holding all international paint shipments until March, to go along with the miniatures. And I was hoping for an answer here, since there just might be others out there who would like to know too. I know, shocking.

 

All of my other responses have been to the mischaracterizations of my position, wild speculations about conspiracy theories I have never mentioned nor hinted at and a general disparagement of anyone who could possibly be irked at the awesomeness that is Reaper. I wouldn't have felt compelled to counter those things if they hadn't been posted by people who didn't need to read the thread nor reply to it.

GG, at this time I think you're probably best served by assuming that you'll get everything in one shipment. I'd also say that you shouldn't assume it will hit in March, but that issues with casting, transportation, boxing, and other issues could potentially move that date back.

 

Since Reaper has said International backers are getting one shipment, I'd go with that scenario. If the paint issue is resolved in a way that you get them in a separate shipment, you'll be pleasantly surprised.

 

I'm hoping as a US backer that I'll get my product in March, but my experience with Kickstarter has told me not to expect ANY dates to be made, especially in the cases of kickstarters that explode.

I have no problem with the March shipment being moved back. I am eagerly awaiting the minis, but I have other minis I can paint in the meantime (when I get the paint to do so).

I just reread Ed Pugh's statement and it seems from that, and I probably misread it the first time in an optimistic light, that they're holding on to the "all international pledgers will only get one shipment, in March" decision.

In that case, I most likely won't put down any paint in the pledge manager, since I need paint before then.

It also means that many US pledgers won't get their paint now, unless enough tick the "only one shipment" option (since the number of bottles they have now won't cover all US pledgers, which Kit confirmed were the most numerous). They could ship out paints to US pledgers as they get more bottles, but in that case I don't see why they couldn't ship out to international pledgers too. I hope people will be just as "welcoming" here to those US pledgers who might turn up and ask why they aren't getting any paints right away.

Of course, since there is no option of getting two shipments if you enter a non-North American address, then they don't know who would like them sooner.

I'm quite disappointed with this decision (as should be obvious by now), since I was looking forward to getting Reaper paints (I've read some very good reviews of them).

GG - As several people have already suggested, it's time for you to email someone at Reaper if you'd like a definitive answer about whether international paint packages will ship out in shifts prior to March, or only in March. I do understand that that is the main point you've been making for the past several days and why you keep posting. However it also seems pretty clear that the person(s) at Reaper who might know the answer to that question is not reading this thread, or they would have updated it already. I know you're asking publicly because you are confident you're not the only person who's interested in the answer. You can include that information when you send the email, and hopefully after that a more definitive public statement will be made for the benefit of others in the same situation.

Threadcrapping, trolls, petulant kids! Oh my, I thought we didn't like namecalling. Heavens forbid anyone tries to lighten things up and have a good time. Not that I needed the videos, as hard as I'm laughing at the "you need to learn reading comprehension" guy not having comprehended the very post he's been referencing for days, all while ignoring anything that was a direct and simple question. Yes, you sir are a shining example of nobility and maturity, and we are all mannerless heathens *BURP*

 

Sure I don't need to read the thread nor reply. Same goes for you. Personally I'm finding the fact the only person who has said you're a troll is you pretty funny. I did like "threadcrapping," first time I've heard that one. Got any other cool board slang?
