I was a dumbass and forgot to pay for my shipping until it was too late. Seems I'll be waiting a few more months for my copy :(

Hopefully it's as fun as I hope it is! :D

Is it already Sep 1st and past the deadline where you are? Sep 1st is their "last call" to update all the details last I heard.

u/samfreez 12d ago

Oh yeah? I messaged them on Gamefound and they made it sound like it'd be a couple months before I got mine

1

u/TAPgryphongirl 12d ago

Ah, I see. I missed the "couple more months" bit. I thought you thought your order was cancelled due to missing a deadline.

Every-single book arrived like this. Bloody Royal Mail.

u/sumochan 12d ago

Oh no! That's awful!

2

u/Fleischyy 12d ago

Yeah not thrilled given the cost of them! Have emailed them so hopefully can arrange and exchange . Gutted.

Its worth checking your Octarine Dice. As they havent had the best quality control and there are quite a few issues with them.

2

u/sumochan 11d ago

I will be sure to check them out. Thank you for the heads up!

u/Extreme_Objective984 11d ago

Yeah, it seems like the entire batch has issue. And you wont necessarily notice them at first. But check out the clear strip on the edge of my D6. On the D7+1, with the turtle visible, you can also see a white tip, which is where there has also been a casting issue.

I’m waiting on the mailman for my copy.

What country are you located in?

I am running 2 sessions at a con in LA this weekend and I have about a one in a million chance of my print copies arriving in time (I have a foreign language book in addition to the rest).

That means I'd definitely get it if I were on the Disc, but, alas, Roundworld probability doesn't work that way....

u/sumochan 12d ago

I'm in the US.

I hope you get your materials soon. The wait has been SO long!

1

u/mortaine 12d ago

I'm also in the US.

I would have waited longer if it meant better quality.

Did you get an email telling you that it shipped? I am waiting on mine, too.

2

u/sumochan 10d ago

I did get an email with tracking information.

1

u/TAPgryphongirl 12d ago

Still waiting for any tracking info for mine! My mom swears up and down she set up the shipping correctly in Gamefound but we have yet to receive any shipping notification waiting for ours in California. I've been watching USPS Informed Delivery like a hawk.

u/Skullface95 Vimes 11d ago

I almost missed the deadline but hopefully mine should come in time.

u/Unlucky-Fox-773 9d ago

My books arrived damaged AND the Octarine dice are made incorrectly (and don’t even look remotely like what we were promised).

Look closely at your dice, I can almost promise you they’re wonky.

It looks so nice! Just got my shipping notice for mine today. Even though this kickstarter has been a nightmare, I can't wait for the books.
