I'm happy to see it funded. Thank you to everyone who helped make this thing happen. I'm looking forward to seeing all of the CAC creativity and getting this in your hands. I said February to give it plenty of time. I'm hoping it'll be sooner than that. From the carrying case game box to the Deck of Heck and mini poster, to the stretch goal cards, I think you guys are getting spoiled. There's about 6 or 7 new backers (read: non-GFP customer before) that I hope become part of the regular fan base. We did it, and I want to thank you again for doing this, Paige is excited and it makes me excited to see that and form GLITTER league with her when we get it all.

I'm happy to fund GFP and the two products created so far and look to support more products in the future, but for now I'm looking to see GLITTER once it's all produced and in my hands...

Who else has been following along with the numbers to predict how many characters are going to be in the set? So far we have confirmation of
10 - original amount announced 4 - stretch cards 1 - bonus card Eric is adding that ties in to IFC 2 9 - the amount of pledges posted at the $50 CAC level That's a minimum amount of 24 cards in the set (which is the exact same percentage of cards per dollar as the previous starter and CAC sets (8 cards for every $5)).
BUT some of you are super supportive and backed for multiple CAC or backed at another level and tacked on an extra $50 (or more). I'm wondering how many more CAC there will be. Playing around with the pledge numbers, there's $449 that was added on to other pledges. Since we're going by multiples of 50, there's up to eight additional CAC added on. I doubt it'll be eight, but from this post it sounds like there's at least an additional three or four CAC pledged for.
So if anyone pledged $30 for the Thunderkitty and Kimmy cards, you're potentially getting THIRTY (or more) cards!
Also, with the set being released in February, there's enough time to seed a 64-fighter tournament to coincide with March Madness!

Oh wait! The bonus card might be a backer exclusive and not part of the set. So that means there's a minimum of 23 cards in the set. Still a solid deal.

Wow! Some nice number crunching, David. It even made my head spin a bit When it's all said and done, everyone at will get 32 cards, 33 if they did the troops tier. Assuming some extra pledges do CAC (I'm not totally sure of all until survey goes out and they day what they're wanting) we'll have 16-18 CAC cards. I believe 4 sets go to the troops, unless those with multiple CAC decide they only need one copy and wish to donate rest to the stack. March Madness was an idea I had in mind too. Thought of making a bracket up that people can use to make their picks.

Very cool! Sounds like the Kimmy and Thunderkitty cards are about to be the rarest cards in the series! Hopefully they'll have some fellow autograph cards in the future to join them.

I'd like to get more real world people in on this. I have an idea or 2 already. What is everyone's thoughts on Thunderkitty? I'm not sure how "big" of a name she is for this, but we like her and the gimmick. I know she's not the biggest name, but she wanted to be in the game and was excited we asked her.

I think she's okay. She's not a wrestler I follow, but I've seen her in CHIKARA/NPWD/Olde and know she does stuff with SHIMMER/SHINE, which in my eyes makes her a great fit for this set. Plus her gimmick is something that can fit in well with the world you've developed. I think getting wrestlers/fighters with creative gimmicks is important because if I'm telling stories with them (especially if I'm not too familiar with who they are), having a concept I can latch on to/tie in to other characters makes me more likely to use them. And speaking of real world, I'm looking forward to the eventual clash between Rabbid and Kaiju's Dusto Bunny.

I think she's probably one of the best fits you could have gotten from the current crop of female indy wrestling talent. She may not be the biggest name but her gimmick makes her work really well for the game.

I am doing 6 females for this set and they are aligned (3 each per the two teams) and I'm looking forward to all the other characters for this set...
