And for those who quit after y1, 1st year rewards decks finally printed, with the tucks now being printed. So that's FINALLY coming! (maybe I shouldn't jinx it? Who knows what other natural disasters or problems with the Greek post office that Lotrek may yet face! ) :lol:

Lol, it'd certainly seem like an April Fools Joke at this point, but Lotrek posted it yesterday.

I know right. But he did post a video of the card back rather than a pic. Ah well, hope springs eternal but I don't think Lotrek is that cruel.

Time and Fate though may very well play a cruel April Fool joke on Lotrek for daring to finally release the deck! :? :lol:

I pre-ordered the SANCTISSIMUS basic deck back in February directly from Oath's website. It never shipped. Should I contact them?

Can you please give me his Patreon email or text? I'm not a Patreon member. I contacted them on the Oath website and no response. Thank you!

I am sure Lotrek is really busy right now shipping out our 1st year Patron packages and the new mystery decks we ordered awhile back....

Yeah, that's the ticket.

Seriously, he does respond from his website messages, or has in the past. Sometimes a f/u email/message helps. He does get busy and I image he gets behind on his emails. I can relate.

Love the deep embossed texture on this one. Looks more burgundy than red to me imo, but still classy & nice!

Keep up the great work Lotrék.

It's the patreonage date, not the production time. Would be funny if he indeed put the production date on it though. Only for Lotrék "years in the making" is true.

I am aware of what the date represents. I was just pointing it out, knowing it's now 2024, making these possibly the most behind schedule decks, ever.

You'll need to bug him, maybe every 2 weeks? Maybe try different methods like FB or IG as suggested. I actually emailed him at hotmail first then only going via Patron 2 weeks later. He told me he had replied, but I never got the email.

Based on his KS and UC posts in the past, he'll work non-stop for 1 project days on end before it's finished or he's taking a break. So his replies will depend on when he finally checks his email and/or social media.

Honestly, even the Patrons only find out some updates on social media like FB or IG and not on Patreon! That photo of the Patron's tuck? That was posted on FB and IG on 10th April. Last post on Patreon, 1st April . :?

Lotrek usually posts on sunday so hopefully this weekend or before end of April the Mystery 3 decks would be shipped. Patreon rewards Year 1 or 2 to be sent as well.

I thought from his post on 3/31, that the tucks were coming in a day or two and then shipping would start. I assume a couple or few days to assemble, and then good to ship. So shipping should have started late last week. I am guessing that didn't happen.

:lol: I am an optimist, but Mystery III is surely months, or more likely over a year away from being in our hands. It should come as no surprise that Lotrek is not the best at estimating timelines. I knew his estimate was wildly optimistic when I pulled the trigger on Mysyery III, but I also knew that it will be worth the inevitable long wait (for me anyhow).

If you can find a way to hold him to account when it comes to his high standards of artistic vision and execution, while also letting go of any sense of expectation surrounding timing, you will find it to be a much more satisfying experience to be a Lotrek supporter. Anticipation is part of that experience. If you want things when he says they will be ready, you will just be left unsatisfied, which is absolutely understandable. I feel like anything he sells should come with a disclaimer. :D

i sure do hope these “finished” decks ship this month
the constant moving of the goal posts is what made me leave his sub-boring patreon in the first place.
when i first signed up oct 20 it was nice to see his work in progress when he developed his decks
now patreons just get updates about supposed “finishes”
when and if i receive my decks will i quit this horrible hobby
sad to see the creators go silent to the point ppl feel scammed and there has been alot goin on lately

lotrek- ur days turn to into weeks which turn to into months which has turned into yrs
pathetic at best for a yr1 support reward
