FAQ Announcement - August 16th
🕑 Added 2018-08-16 04:08:29 +0000 UTC Dear Insane Children,A quick public post containing info about The Chaos Coin and the livestream for this week. First, a Giant Welcome to all our new inmates! As I write this, we're at 2152 (and still growing). Wow!
If you are not yet an Inmate and want a Chaos Coin, then join now! There's no limit to how many we're delivering via this offer but the offer does end on August 31st.
Still a bit of confusion and a number of questions coming in regarding the Chaos Coin Goal and how to acquire a Coin before time runs out. I've tried multiple times to explain this as clearly as possible and I'll try again...
Chaos Coin How-To - In 3-Easy Steps
1) Pledge NOW at $35 (or more).
2) Wait to be charged on or around September 5th.
3) Done. Finished. You've passed go. You've acquired the Chaos Coin!
After That...
If you wish to change, reduce, or cancel your pledge after completing the steps above, please wait until September 17th, 2018. This will help us sort and organize your pledges more easily - it will NOT result in additional charges to you. After September 17th, 2018 you can change, reduce, or cancel your pledge and you will still receive the Chaos Coin.
You must be processed at $35 (or more) for this month (August 2018) in order to receive a Chaos Coin via this offer.
You have until August 31st to lock in your pledge.
Livestream and Pledge / Reward Walkthrough
If you are still in doubt then please join us for this weeks livestream - which can also be watched at any time after the stream - via THIS LINK.
It's at 7PM Hong Kong Time on August 17th. Here's an International Meeting Planner timetable to make things clear...
Oi! This is an EU Stream!
Again, if you miss the stream live then you can still watch it on YouTube via THIS LINK at a later time/date.
During this stream Martin and I will talk through the commonly asked questions regarding the Chaos Coin Reward. If you're on during the live stream then you can ask questions at that time as well.
A couple of recent questions:
1. I pledged after you hit 2000 patrons. Do I still get the coin?
Yes. There's no limit to the number of coins/patrons.
Just pledge before end of August, 2018.
2. I just need to pledge for 1 month, right?
Yes. $35 or more for 1 month, THIS MONTH, August 2018.
Previous and later months do not qualify.
3. Do I get coin + necklace + print at $75?
Yes. If it's your first month at $75 then you would get all three.
If you're already at $75 then you'll still get an art print + Chaos Coin.
If this is your first month at $35 then two more months = art print as well.
4. It costs more because of VAT where I am. (Not really a question, but some people are mentioning it)
It sucks. We know. Same thing here in China.
Write an angry letter to your politicians.
American and Martin can't do anything about this.
Elect Lulu as Queen of the World... maybe she'll fix it.
5. What's the character count for my name/message on the coin?
For the virtual, in-game coin you can submit a name and message (per our approval). We'll send out a Survey Monkey for this at a later date.
Name = 64 Characters
Message = 256 Characters
We'll go into full detail about all this (and more) during the upcoming livestream.
If you have related QUESTIONS or SUGGESTIONS please add them to the comments below and use the "QUESTION: " or "SUGGESTION: " tag so Martin can easily see them. Try to avoid asking questions or making suggestions which have been covered before - a lot of your questions and suggestions have been covered in previous posts / livestreams. Lots of info on the Chaos Coin can be found via the Goal Link.
We look forward to seeing you all on tomorrow's stream. Yay!
Congratulations to Everyone who helped us reach this amazing goal! Wow!
PS: I'll put the amazing new Card Guard art (used in the main image, above) from Alex in a Patron-Only post later today.
From Shanghai with another Typhoon on the Way,

Destiny Jenson
Damn, I was really looking forward to the live stream..... 😭💔 QUESTION: Are all the live streams going to be at EU times now? Or is this just a once in awhile thing?
Woo! I can't imagine this being misunderstood by anyone this had been perfectly stated. Congrats to all who made the wise decision to jump on board! :)
Saleh Abu-Rashid
FRK YES!

Don't feel too bad Greg I have to miss this stream too.
Sadly going to miss this stream, but I look forward to watching it later! Keep it wild EU peoples! As a really general QUESTION about game development, what happens when the vision (art, story, concepts, etc) is greater than what can technically be done (due to engine/tech limits)? I'm fascinated to know from your own history in game dev and design how such challenges are overcome.

I live in the EU but can't watch the Livestream again, need to work at this time! ;(
Looking forward to see as many of you as possible in the EU friendly stream! Now it's someone elses' turn stay/get up at shit o'clock for this <3 Lulu has my treat as Queen of the world. If Thailand can make a dog Air Chief Marshal, I'd say we're in with a shot here.
Now I understand why it's called "Chaos" coin xD I'm so happy we've reached the goal! <3
American McGee
Sorry we'll miss you this time 'round. Martin and I also prefer the regular stream time, but we have to give some love to our wonderful Patrons on the other side of the pond ;) We'll see you next time!
American McGee
You have no idea :/
American McGee
Jordan, you're commenting on a post in which I've outlined in *the most simple terms* how to qualify. By asking that we email people... That creates a ton of problems. We'll end up with people getting that email and then changing or canceling their pledge ... not getting the Coin, then complaining that we emailed them. PLEASE do not over complicate this. It's super simple: Are you at $35 (or above)? Then stay there until September 17th. Done.
Yes!! Awesome
Hello :) I would love if you could email patrons that have made the cut for chaos coin. I just changed my pledge and would just like to confirm that I'm on the list
American McGee
Hey, it's not our favorite thing either. 7PM here... I'd usually be having dinner and resting for the day :)
Why American. Our poor Australian time zones was working so well, now I'll have to wait until 9pm.
Can’t WAIT! 😃
I am so happy and terrified to get the coin! I have no idea what to write in the message! O.O Gotta start brainstorming!
Morgan LeFay Dethen
We did it!
Well explained American! Ha ha I'm sure you're fed up with all those questions.
Lucas Severin
It's awesome that we hit the goal. I can't wait to get my coin. But unfortunately for me the livestream is going to be at 7 in the morning and I have to go to work then. I know I can just watch it later but I've just had so much fun partaken in the chat I meant some pretty cool people too. Sorry guys I can't make it hope to see you in the next stream. As for what I would want to write on my chaos coin, I think I would write Name lucafer severs, stroy. I have a few ideas but I'll think of it later.
Yay!! So happy we hit a new goal, and this definitely cleared up a lot! Thank you so much!
