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.

You do what you need to do and your supporters should understand.

If I catch you at con, I will my copy then. Not critical and it just becomes two less items to carry home.

I just don't get this "I Kickstarted it, so I HAVE TO HAVE IT FIRST!!!!" mentality. First of all -- and I know, I'm deluding myself, but let me have this delusion -- I would hope that we would have gotten past this "pay money to be one of the cool kids" idea, at least in this hobby that we love.

Second, I for one didn't KS to get the album first; I KS'ed to get the album period. Without the pre-funding, you guys wouldn't have been able to do the album at all. And not having the album available for sale at WorldCon would just be stupid.

I don't know who is giving you crap about this, but if they're reading this: Get the hell off of your high horse and remember that this is supposed to be fun. Dumbass.

As a kickstarter, I hereby and officially register my lack of annoyance at not getting the CD before people at Worldcon.

And if that'es too many negatives to parse, it's all good, as far as I'm concerned.
