Jacques: Maybe just one more salted fryball…

[[A woman in a porkpie hat intervenes.]]
Porkpie: Will you regret it?
Porkpie: Imagine yourself after eating that fryball. Imagine how you’ll feel.

[[Jacques imagines his future self. A ghostly Jacques appears besides him.]]
Ghost Jacques: Whoof. That additional fryball was a mistake.
Ghost Jacques: My stomach is letting me know in very clear terms what it thinks of my poor choice.

[[Ghost Jacques’ eyes roll up in pain.]]
Ghost Jacques: Past me made a bad move. Past me should NOT have eaten that fryball.
Ghost Jacques: NOT a good move.

[[Ghost Jacques turns his gaze towards Current Jacques in disgust. Current Jacques sweats.]]
Ghost Jacques: And the WORST part, past me? You even IMAGINED how terrible it would feel and you STILL did it
Ghost Jacques: WHAT IS WRONG WITH YOU

Bolted! Fulfillment Update

The vast majority of Bolted! game shipments are already shipped, but I understand if you don’t have yours yet, who cares. Here’s a progress report:

Total orders | 1052
Surveys completed | 992
Fully shipped | 946

Incomplete surveys

Obviously, if I don’t have your shipping address, I can’t ship your game! Let me know if you are missing a survey link. As new responses come in, they are rapidly added to the shipping queue.

Orders containing certain add-ons

Some of the add-ons proved more popular than expected — which is lovely! But it meant I had to reprint some stickers, make all the individual comic prints, request a shipment of books from offsite storage, etc, etc. So, any orders which contain an out-of-stock item are still waiting to ship.

All that missing stuff, though, is en route to me at this very second! So those orders will be going out pretty dang soon!

Custom items

I’ve already been in touch directly with the backers who ordered custom collages! Those will be created (and sent to you) after all the other shipments are complete. I’m excited for those, they’ll be fun! My pleasant dessert after the hearty meal of all the other orders.

Anything wrong?

I’m very grateful to the few folks who’ve contacted me to report some kind of issue with their shipment! Thankfully, problems are rare, but when they do occur, I would like to solve them. Please don’t hesitate to send me an email (replying to your shipping confirmation works great) if there’s anything about your order I can correct.

Reviews & photos

On BoardGameGeek are highly appreciated!

Unless you hate the game! You are entitled to that opinion, but please send that review directly to me instead of telling anyone else, so I can eat it and bury it in the yard and watch it grow into a twisted, gnarled tree. Or whatever!
