WAYS OF WIND AND WATER !!!

Ok, here's the deal. We have CDs. Just got them. We don't have everything signed yet, but we're plugging away at it (we have to track everyone down and make them sign over a 100 CDs). We will get them signed and out the door with everything else as soon as possible.

Chicon starts tomorrow. Yes, Ropers will have our CDs. If you are a KS donor and want yours, you will need to track me down before Opening Ceremonies. I will only be there for that and am leaving right after. If you want it signed by everyone, I'm afraid that you'll have to wait, because, as I said, we haven't been able to get everyone to sign all the CDs yet.

I feel kind of a bit of rat for this, I wanted the Kickstarter folks to get their CDs first, but we can't not have the CDs at Worldcon. If they had shown up a week earlier … or a week later.

Also, I don't have the bonus CDs duplicated yet, so if you are owed a bonus CD, I probably won't have it (unless I can get some done today before I leave).

AHHHHHHH.

*wave* I'm the one from Facebook.

Oddly enough, I am not even a Kickstarter for this CD - I'm warning what happened in a similar situation with another CD. I would rather not see Eric garner the same ill feeling as the other person did. Now, I will say that there are some marked differences:

- Eric has not been posting about his Kickstarter every day til people felt like they had to donate just to get him to stop posting about it.
- Eric will not be waiting a full month after making the CD available to the masses to get around to mailing the CDs to the Kickstarters.

However, I do stand by the fact that one of the joys and delights of being a Kickstarter supporter is getting first crack at the CDs, or at least a digital download thereof.

Sorry you had a bad experience. And thanks for clearing up your points.

I do think it's nice to get perks like first crack, but I don't ever count on it.
