Please desist from politically charged jokes. Thanks! That way we can keep hitting gargoyles in a purely Quest perspective.

Currently at $3,775,444.

Close to unlocking the Gargoyle.

Lets hope there is more.



So it looks like today the total has gone down from what was posted like it did on Saturday when they were charging people in the US. In fact the amount has gone down exactly 15x$150, (currently at 3,773,194) which makes me think they are double checking orders.

I would bet (and hope) in the next day or two we will have 2 more jumps like this. Adding the final orders from the different vendors for international orders and then throughout the day after the jump there will be a slow decline as they check the orders.
The right man in the wrong place can make all the difference.

Oddly enough, EB Games here only took a $50 deposit, the other $250 isn't due until I pick it up in store. So presumably they are giving Hasbro the full $300 dollary-doos in good faith/the full amount counts.

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....


Called it! Including unfortunately that it wouldn't make a difference on the gargoyle :gargoyle: .... :cry:

Hopefully I didn't call it quite right and there are more international numbers to come.... :D

I have always found a little humour here entertaining. It is just a joke to me.
Anyway, it won't matter if we don't get all our goals. As long as the mainstream media say we will, that will make it reality! (yeah... that was a little politically charged).

Maybe large numbers of dead people will help push us over the 4 million goal ;)

Only if they are UNdead. Okay, I'm done. Let's just side step those topics... !

Seriously though, let's not get too excited here. They said the fundraiser ended at 11:59pm EDT Nov 6th, so if they suddenly got 3.8 million ($27,056 more) that doesn't mean they'll suddenly unlock anything more.

The weaponless Gargoyle isn't a big deal. You can saw the weapons off the regular one if you want to, and you only "need" one for the GS+KK/ROTWL quests. Simply having a Dragon isn't that big a deal, depending upon the rules for it, but more quests were what I was about. But $4 million was a pipe dream. They revealed it way too late in the campaign. If we had until Dec 6th to pledge, that would have been a different story. Pledges were continuing to trickle in until the end. Anyway, the controversy about a kickstarter type fundraiser should be over now. Right? Now let's see some results. They say production has officially begun.
