#803; In which Concern comes Too Late

Comic Transcripts

[[Outside a shop with the sign DONUTS]]
Voice 1: Are you guys still making those doughplanes?
Voice 2: Why? Do you want one?

[[Inside the shop]]
Lady (Voice 1): Well, no. I just thought it was cool that you made them.
Shopkeeper (Voice 2): Nobody BOUGHT them. We made the biggest and best doughplane in the world, and nobody wanted it.
Shopkeeper: People UNDERSTAND donuts. People DIDN’T understand DOUGHPLANES.

Lady: That’s what I always considered the BEAUTY of it! You took a RISK. You made something NOBODY else would DARE TRY. It was exciting to watch someone labor over something unique for its OWN sake, rather than because it was profitable.
Lady: It was nice to know that there was a place UNAFRAID to make doughplanes. You were a confident lighthouse, beckoning into port a world in which doughplanes would be appreciated.

Shopkeeper: Great. Your superficial approval is appreciated.
Shopkeeper: But did you ever BUY a doughplane?
Lady: Well
Lady: They didn’t really fit in your mouth

#803; In which Concern comes Too Late transcribed by in

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!
