Did anyone who was refreshing the page regularly in the final hours see a big jump that indicated the final international numbers had been added?

I am UK based and did not see a big jump for international additions up to midnight UK time - but then I went to bed.

If US has added 300-400k in the final day with a population of 400m it’s pretty conceivable UK with a population of 60-70m has added 60-70k which is not yet included in the total.

Fingers crossed although looking where total ended up may not actually make a difference even if they do still need adding....

Apparently, the overseas figures were already added in. Check this BGG link.

I’m super excited for everything we are getting but, man, someone needs to give the development crew some lessons on marketing. They had close to zero communication or engagement with the community. Joe and the crew only pushed it in the final hours. And I have to ask, since it’s not Kickstarter, why couldn’t they just keep taking bids until they hit the last stretch goal? I get it, has to probably specific rules in place but come on.

No transparency on foreign totals being added in etc.

Again, I’m all in and excited but bummed because this could have been handled way better.

I was watching all day and there were no big jumps from international yesterday.

As much as they said that. Zavi was still taking orders at midnight last night.

Are we talking HQ or the election?

Doesn't mean those orders were actually being sent.

Silently hoping that on Monday morning the last batch of overseas orders get added in and we get another gargoyle.

Well, I waited until the last minute if there was any possibility to get the bigger package to Germany. Nope. So. No money from me.... sad that.
