Its annoying if you can't get the kickstarter due to other reasons and waves are gone too fast. That is not even going into how Australia doesn't really have waves. This would just annoy me. A better alternative would be giving a freebie for every wave that is filled. Would encourage people to be happy that more people are backing and not curse them as a wave based freebie would. Doesn't help with getting people to back early thought. Did you read the post? If so you would have see my conclusion..."Don't fix what isn't broken" Further, I dismissed the idea of wave 1 as its ridiculous to try and even get in that early, But I believe a 72 Hour early bird Freebie would encourage early pledging . But again, Reaper doesn't need to do this. I actually like you idea. Though , if you think about it.... additional pledges means additional money... which means additional Stretch goals .... which means they actually sorta, kinda use that tactic already. But yes, I agree Reaper should add more minis as pledges increase. My apologies if I presented a suggestion that annoyed you. I'm annoyed that I'm waiting for my rewards that were implicated promised to go to wave 1 first. My advice is what everyone is telling me, don't be upset that other people are getting something you think you deserve. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cyradis Posted July 7, 2021 Share Posted July 7, 2021 And last time everyone got annoyed that CANADA WENT FIRST. But it meant that fulfillment went smoother for Reaper at that point, and getting things done easier makes everyone get their stuff smoother and faster. The waves I think are meant as guidelines, not promises. Your early wave I think does mean that you will be earlier than later waves - within the group that is still waiting for items. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I agree 100% Wave order is not an explicit promise. Its implicit. Which is why I used the word implicit. My group is the USA and up until a few ago My group was all waiting on ALL items. Naturally, Reaper is going to do the most economical and quickest way possible to satisfy as many people as people. AND I THINK THAT'S GREAT. I applaud the decision. But I'm also annoyed. I don't think how Canadians pay taxes and fees or how its shipped to them was ever explicit. But I understand why they are annoyed. I don't immediately discredit why they are annoyed.

There are a few things I didnt get that now I want, such as fan favorites and henchmen and such. Anyone planning to add to their haul? I recommend the encounter sets. The Bones 5.5 pledge manager is already open. The Henchmen are not in it, as they are coming to retail soon. Fan Favorites is there, however. 4 hours ago, Sirithiliel said: i don't THINK theere is anything else i want i do admit to being slightly sad i didn't get that dwarf tomb encounter thing, mostly because the dwarves look very interesting to paint, but not sure i want it enough to buy more things when i don't have my first order yet The Dwarf King’s Crypt isn’t in the 5.5 PM either. Like the Henchmen, it is scheduled to come to retail soon. Everything that Reaper has mentioned in their twitch streams is coming to retail soon, and has shown off packaging and such, is not in the 5.5 pledge manager. Dragonfolk, rune wights, henchmen and henchwomen, dwarf kings crypt, Brinewind Extras, demonic legions (renamed blood demons for retail). 3 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You need to sign out, and then register a new pledge manager account with a different email address. And then...go nuts. 😆 Edited July 7, 2021 by billeecats 3 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

John Free Posted July 7, 2021 Share Posted July 7, 2021 So the only way to use the Pledge Manager is to make a new email and whole new account?! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Locking people's accounts and then telling them to just create another makes people like me go "oh, I guess I won't put more money into such then". Makes it feel like communication isn't of importance. Not everyone wants to have multiple email addresses for things, because that's how things get missed or not responded to in a timely manner... 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't disagree. I happen to have a second email handy that I use frequently, but that's not the case for everyone. I had a thought while typing this to see if the pledge manager recognizes <youremail>+<identifier>@provider.com as a separate email address. If it does, then that would still let you use the same email address for a second account. Going to go try it out now... 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

While I have several emails (about half a dozen, actually), they're all for separate things. I even have a catch all called "oops". But I prefer things to remain in their specific containers, because I expect things in certain areas, and either ignore or delete such in the others.... 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
