kaosweaver Posted September 30, 2013 Share Posted September 30, 2013 Hello, I'm new to the forums, and to collecting and painting minis in general. I missed the first KS, but I plan on getting in on this one. I have a quick question. What's the purpose of refreshing the KS page all the time? Thank you Refresh was to watch the total skyrocket, see if anything new was added and to update the torrent of comments. It is addicting to watch and update all of the time. This is an event and you don't want to miss anything. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lord Dragon Posted September 30, 2013 Share Posted September 30, 2013 Hello, I'm new to the forums, and to collecting and painting minis in general. I missed the first KS, but I plan on getting in on this one. I have a quick question. What's the purpose of refreshing the KS page all the time? Thank you from what I can gather the first ks was so popular that it pretty much broke the kickstarter forcing people to f5 (refresh) the page all the time to get a more accurate picture of where they were currently at. I missed the first KS my self but I am super excited about the next one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
klarg1 Posted September 30, 2013 Share Posted September 30, 2013 (edited) Hello, I'm new to the forums, and to collecting and painting minis in general. I missed the first KS, but I plan on getting in on this one. I have a quick question. What's the purpose of refreshing the KS page all the time? Thank you madness. OK, so the real reason is that we all got very caught up in watching the dollar total rise, and new stretch goals unlock. It is true that we could all just wait for the update email to reach us, but we were all just way too caught up in the excitement to be patient . I expect this time to be the same.

Dai-Mongar Posted September 30, 2013 Share Posted September 30, 2013 We broke kickstarter when the project was ending, because everyone was refreshing to see if the last stretch goal would be broken. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

unknowable Posted September 30, 2013 Share Posted September 30, 2013 This time around I have little reservation about pledging the full amount, getting all the extras that I like and hopefully paint sets and a couple of mini cases (because I am lazy and now have many many miniatures) Earmarked ~$400 for this... Probably not something I should have done with two holidays planned, a ps4 on order and big foam cutting table coming. Next goal, save some money and then let go of it to buy a 3D printer r_r. fwiw, The KS1 cases were a bust. The glue had problems, and the spaces to put the mini's in were too small. Since they were made by a third party, I'm guessing Reaper would use a different party, or not have cases at all. In any (ahem) case, ask questions about the cases before adding them on. I've noticed many KS projects have defects or compromises caused by a rushed schedule (eg. sculpts), and the cases are an example. Myself, since Bones are less fragile than metals and paint stays on them better, I use an inexpensive plastic bead box from Michael's for the human-sized miniatures. I line them up with cotton squares, but am not sure if I really need them. http://www.cardinalenterprises.com/darice_storage_containers_3.htm Hope the PS4 is for someone else, because you're gonna need a lot of time to paint that Vampire set...! Consoles always are for other people really when it comes to me, I mainly play them when others are around. I got a launch edition pre-ordered at the right time from amazon and am loath to give it up at this point :P Hmmm I will take your advice on the case, wish I still had my old GW cases from when I was a young man. Damn I am looking forward to the new kickstarter though, may have to bludgeon a few friends into buying mini's :P... I may be the primary GM in the groups I run, but hey... If I can encourage someone to paint there own mini's or even just buy them, maybe they will donate some extras to me or become interested in learning how to GM themselves. -goes back to the workshop to continue making detailed 3D terrain for the ungreatful gremlins- Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Heisler Posted September 30, 2013 Share Posted September 30, 2013 (edited) I think they are going to have delivery be Dec 2014 and just have Santa bring them Can we have Sophie in a Santa costume instead? Is Bones the only minis project hat hasn't got a Twilight Knight yet? Twilight Sophie, anyone? For the love of god, I certainly hope not! I like Sophie's hips just the way they are.

Ithaqua Posted September 30, 2013 Share Posted September 30, 2013 So is the content of the KS still a state secret? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CashWiley Posted September 30, 2013 Share Posted September 30, 2013 (edited) I would like a Twilight Sophie! :) As far as f5'ing goes, it melted KS's servers so hard they implemented the new chat software. On the one hand, it's nice that you don't need to f5 (just click 'show new messages or whatever). On the other hand, who thought it was a good idea to remove the pages, there's no way I'm going to be able to skim the previous night's comments like last time. So is the content of the KS still a state secret? No, it's clowns. Clownthulhu! Edited September 30, 2013 by ladystorm Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
