is there any sort of recourse for an incredibly late Kickstarter? This has really spurned me from the entire process. The previous ones I kickstarted came fairly promptly or only one or two months late. This one was supposed to have shipped in October and has yet to; meanwhile, the book is being sold in stores already!!!! wtf. He made the money from me, puts it out and then doesnt send me a copy. This seems messed up.

what happened when you contacted

he said there was an issue with the shipping company. I thought they shipped stuff out themselves? i see other comments from people missing things, too.

i should add it took him a month to reply to my email. he said he is 'speaking to the head of distribution next week' so I should get it shortly.


I dont believe him.

whats the kickstarter/book?

yaeh i guess the shipper for thee printer could have screwed up small orders (like not to bookstores), but he shoudl be responding better and offering you something

Fiction Squad

edit: yeah, i'm into silly stuff

alright, thanks. i thought i may be expecting too much. maybe ill ask him for a trinket or something; he sent a mass email today that it would be 'shipping shortly' so maybe he finally stepped it up after all the emails people sent him.

idk, i might bow out of kickstarter after this experience.

edit: the issues he put out into stores were cheaper than what I paid for it, too. that got me annoyed.

plus it looks liek you bought a new version of Fables

yeah, i like Fables so thought maybe I'd like the genre in general. I haven't read any other fairytale-type stuff other than Fables.

Your counsel will be given fullest consideration

Better late than never:

$100 is a decent amount if you were invited to a grad party. $50 is a nice gesture if you randomly found out about their graduation, but didnt get invited to any festivities.

agreed

JU Burton and Werthless submitted the winning bids - though I incremented modestly for long-term friend relationship value. Honorable mention to TV. And a big thanks to all of our contestants!

this isn't directly political, so I'm noting here that Franklin Graham's stupidity is of Biblical proportions

God must be so embarrassed that this self-satisfied dipshit tries to pimp for her

He should realize that all banking is evil, and not keep his money in any of them.

Just read the article. It's funny how these types always claim the Bible says homosexuality is evil and wrong and sinful. But they never get specific.

Now finding these passages is kind of hard so I can understand the guy not quoting them.

The other thing, of course is their failure to understand the passages if they could find them.

The key is to pretend that entire books (ie. Leviticus) of the old testament don't exist.

It's better to not understand the context or history.

Are we doing the blood sacrifice thing? That is the only way to God.

That Leviticus has a bunch of laws regarding clean and unclean that no one follows any more I suspect.

I'm actually more interested in what Jesus talked about. Not all that concerned about homosexuality.
