Re: Ambassadors - Lotrek
So the real question is will we get our Ambassadors decks first or the Grotesk Black G&S, Inferno and Liturgy decks?

Re: Ambassadors - Lotrek
I didn't have the money at the time of the pre-sale for these decks so, I guess I'll be setting an alarm for the KS launch.

Re: Ambassadors - Lotrek
It really depends on each country's postal service. Shipping of all decks will last 3-4 days with Ambassadors coming as a separate shipment.Bikefanatic wrote:So the real question is will we get our Ambassadors decks first or the Grotesk Black G&S, Inferno and Liturgy decks?
All my non-KS projects have a few days delay and I think I should stick to the tradition! About a week ago, I decided that the stock I used for the grey edition tuck cases is a bit too thick and this displeases me. So I reprinted all the grey tucks in a new, thinner and slightly darker stock which is exactly what I wanted. Plus, the letters on the sides in the old tucks were in black foil and therefore a bit difficult to read. I took the opportunity and switched to gold (new plates):
I was hoping to have them in time but the tucks will be delivered tomorrow, so shipment goes for Tuesday. It seems impossible for me to avoid last minute changes...

Re: Ambassadors - Lotrek
25 numbered and signed rejected uncut tuck cases are available through my website https://oathplayingcards.com" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false;" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false;
The only issue they had is that the stock felt a bit too thick for my taste. Apart from these 25, the rest will be scrapped. You have time for Tuesday's shipment!

Did the kickstarter campaign get pushed back?Lotrek wrote:99% it will be Monday 23 Oct. at 5:00pm EST. It will be a short campaign, not more than 2 weeks (maybe less) and the deck will have some differences from the collector's edition. It will be more suited for playing and/or magicians. I want to combine perfect usability with as much customization as possible, staying within the frame of standard courts.vasta41 wrote:Any word on the date and time of this KS campaign? I sure would like to sink my teeth into this players edition.Lotrek wrote:Yes, exactly. The KS campaign will be for a standard "player's" edition printed by EPCC. Some Ambassadors decks will be offered as add-ons.
As I've mentioned before, AMBASSADORS is the first deck in my "Standard series". These decks will all be based on my rendition of the standard courts but each one will be a completely different work in its whole. The Standard series will have two sub-categories, the Collector's edition and the player's edition. The Collector's edition will always be considerably cheaper than the rest of my "homemade" crazy decks.

Yes, I want to send the Collector's Edition first and since this was delayed (shipping tomorrow) I had to push the KS campaign a few days back. Probably Thursday but I'll make an official announcement.

No, shipping finished yesterday morning.sms69x wrote:Shipping started already?
I was just so busy preparing the Grotesk - Liturgy shipment that I didn't even think posting here.
Man, 1500 decks is crazy to pack. Never try this at home. Even for the 500 Ambassadors decks me and my wife are like being beaten with baseball sticks

Re: Ambassadors - Lotrek (wap)
Absolutely not! Lotrek needs to get busy and get the Ambassadors Players Edition out on Kickstarter. And after that Lotrek needs to get busy (if he isn't already) in designing and producing the next edition in the "Standard Series". That is so Lotrek can have me and a few others fling cash at him...after that, MAYBE he can take a well deserved (I agree it is well deserved) break.sms69x wrote:Great news!

Re: Ambassadors - Lotrek
Unfortunately not... Only Ambassadors now. I thought that we could have all the rest ready for today (as I'll be away for a few days from tomorrow) but it was too optimistic. The amount of work is insane and the fatigue, too. We still have many packages to do so the shipment has to be pushed for a week when I'll be back...rousselle wrote:So... does this mean Ambassadors *plus* the other back-orders have been shipped out?

The good thing is that once we get them to the post office it takes only 3-4 hours to send them all so all packages will go out in the same day.

I'm OK with waiting for a little while longer for my decks, though I would hate to be the guy in line behind you at the post office! Hope you get some R&R while you are away!

Ambassadors was sent on Thursday and I will give tracking numbers on request. I'm doing it manually so I'm not too excited to do it for 120+ orders!
