This may mean some of you get hosed out of buying a first batch card so we can have a handful to take and sell there

The first people who have purchasing rights are the people who bought the ProtoCards, though.

These people kindly bought the original version to fund the current version. (Even I admit they were pretty home-made looking) If it weren't for them, there would be no ABCards. We are just giving back to those who helped fund further developement.

(Bet they are happy now that they did.)

No. Just because you sit and wait to pounce on an announcement shouldn't have any effect on our business model. We try to do these things *for the community*, not for the folks who can't/won't wait.  A lot of them have been waiting longer than you.
(And arkhan and I are still discussing allowing 'old-timers' first dibs. One thing Arkhan and I agree on is that the people who helped us way back when shouldn't get shut out by newbies looking for something to flip. )

it seems the offer of monies now for game later is not available
Again, that's not our business model.  We don't want to take any moneys until the game is done. Then there is no moaning about when it will be done, or even if it will be done. When you pay, it goes in the mail.

Or not. I have 2 months to make more. We already have 50+.... I'll try to boost that to 100+ by the end of July :)
If you are really that anxious for the game, come see us at CCAG.  A few other people here have :)

He got it, I'm sure. He just chose to be the better man, and ignore it. He's like that on occasion.

Did you just call me a pouncer, impatient, and newbie all at once?  I'll give you impatient, but pouncer I've never been.  Newbie I'll deal with.

Did you just call me....

Nope. Don't take things so personally. Those were second person plural yous (As in, you guys or you, my countrymen). Often used when talking to a group of people to bring their attention to a particular point. Worked, dodn't it?

I was actually just kidding.  My post was supposed to read like Goodfellas.  Fail = Yes.  :(  I will go back to my corner now.

Good luck with that! I tried to reserve one for the art contest winner and was told to do something to myself that I cannot repeat in mixed company.

(J/k... but it seems the offer of monies now for game later is not available, at least if any priority is to be assigned to when "later" is.)

p.p.s. Arkan doesn't get boner jokes. Awwww yeeeeah, I went there.

lol, I don't run that facebook thing.  That's Sunteam Paul. 

I don't get boners either.  I GIVE THEM.



but yeah no preorders.   f*ck that.

As an Englishman and watcher of Carry-On movies, I am ashamed I did not register that innuendo immediately.

I was doing about 3 things at once (including some massive OBEY with Atlantean playtesting) so that's my excuse.

OBEY > BONER.

It's more of a cause and effect: Obey ---> Boner.
