      Keep an eye on the $255 Snoutpacks (I've got one reserved). Some of us are likely to move up in the last few days to higher tiers that include the Snoutpack (e.g., the $605 level), which should free up slots in that $255 Snoutpack tier. I've already seen several become available over the last 3 weeks that way. And don't even bothering asking me when I'm going to pull the trigger! You'll just have to roll the Fluorite Octet and take your chances!

      That may be true, but I've also seen a lot of comments on here about people wanting to wait until the last week or so to be sure they will have enough for whatever they pledge, and on top of that I bet a lot of people are also using this as their Xmas shopping. ^_^ Either way though, I'm really thrilled with how much the fandom has put into this! also I would really like to see one last double stretcheladder update! ^u^

      To be fair, there are going to be a lot of people who donate and then when it comes time to pay they won't have the money. If the kickstarter reaches $2 million, as a absolute worst case scenario it would be $1.75 million.

      Still a preposterous amount of money for polish though.

      One of the higher ones, no doubt, especially for games. But not the highest funded game and by far not the highest funded project. The Pebble watch for example had a goal of 100,000 and they ended up with 10,266,845. That is an absolutely preposterous amount of money.

      Still though, seems like we are on track to hit at least 2 million, that's very impressive. I am honestly very shocked (not to mention impressed) at how many people have backed this on the $10,000, $5,000 and $1,000 tiers.

      I hope the project hits at least $2,100,000 personally if not more, weird number I know, but that would mark the project being 3X funded. :)

      Oops. Bah! Ignore my above comment I found a whole dream bubble's worth of higher funded projects. But considering how low the original goal was (compared to where it's at now), still really awesome. Fandom should be proud.

   6. 

      Creator Neil Grieb on September 27, 2012

      Wow. It's not even done yet and it is already (as far as I can tell) the second most funded project in Kickstarter history. The only funded project that was higher had over 10 mil pledged (again that I could find, I could be wrong) I don't think we can beat that one. But still. Impressive.

      @ Miyuki I know right!? and now the art book is going to be made too! >u< I'm so excited!

      Creator Miyuki Miamoto on September 25, 2012

      Ahh this is so exciting! X3 I bet the game is going to be fantastic! The stickers are so cool too. I really wish I was a millionaire just so I could donate a ton of money heehee!

       @Aleksander the song is "Dance of Thorns" from the album Strife! which was released close to two years ago. You can check it out at homestuck.bandcamp.com

   11. 

       Creator Joselyn Palmer on September 25, 2012

       @Aleksander The song from the advert is called Dance Of Thorns, and it's already available on Homestuck's bandcamp in the album called Strife!

   12. 

       Creator Aleksander on September 25, 2012

       Dude its awesome that you got a million way to go!

       Any chance the song from the advert will be on the soundtrack?

   13. 

       Creator Samuel Driskill on September 25, 2012

       We're so close to the next tier! GO FANDOM GO!

       Creator Laurence Kerr on September 25, 2012

       I'm having trouble getting the game. The link that was sent to me in the email just redirects to the adventure game post, not to the game itself.

   15. 

       Creator Zack.P on September 24, 2012

       Anyone else have trouble with the sound? I couldn't hear a thing

   16. 

       Creator Alex on September 23, 2012

       Ah, thanks for clarifying Hollie. Hopefully it won't take long for the update to be available for everyone.

   17. 

       Creator Hollie Walton on September 23, 2012

       @Alex. The "all backers" on the perk tier refers to beta testing the actual homestuck adventure game due out in 2014. The backers who pledged over $50 (and only those who did so before the beta link was distributed a few hours ago, it seems) currently have the opportunity to beta test the next mini-game style update, which will of course be released later (and, it would seem, with extra content and no/fewer bugs) to the homestuck readership at large.

       I got confused about it all at first, too.

       Creator Michael on September 23, 2012

       I backed it and never got it. :(

   19. 

       Creator Gallo on September 23, 2012

       @ashley - well i'm thinking at the moment yes. i'm going to guess that we might just get it a bit later then the people who donated earlier then us.

   20. 

       Creator Ashley Abbott on September 23, 2012

       I pledged after the beta was released and I haven't received it, so does that mean only people who did it beforehand get it?

   21. 

       Creator Gallo on September 23, 2012

       that could be it idk

   22. 

       Creator Alex on September 23, 2012

       Maybe it's buggy or Hussie is staggering the testing so nothing breaks? There's a lot of backers.

   23. 

       Creator Gallo on September 23, 2012

       @alex, ya i shouldn't be but i actually donated $80 and i didn't get the game.

   24. 

       Creator Madsion on September 23, 2012

       I thought all pledgers were gonna get the beta game to test....OH WELLLLL

   25. 

       Creator Alex on September 23, 2012

       It says "all backers" so it shouldn't be limited to the ones who pledged 50+

   26. 

       Creator Gallo on September 23, 2012

       i didn't get the beta game O.o oh well i guess

   27. 

       Creator Kumiki on September 23, 2012

       From the message I got, the beta testing for this mini-game, the next one, and the adventure game is reserved for 50+ pledgers.

   28. 

       Creator Morgan Wall on September 23, 2012

       is the beta only for people at the 50 and above level? my friends and i are backed at the 25 level

   29. 

       Creator Sorceror Nobody on September 23, 2012

       The beta isn't the entirety of the update, so there is some left unspoiled.

       I'm an admin on the MSPA wiki, and I kind of facepalmed at people adding info from the beta, when really we should wait for the update to be released properly, but I and one of the other admins agreed it'd be pretty pointless to try and lock pages and undo edits now.

       I don't approve of people spoiling it, but it was kind of inevitable, and Hussie made no request for people not to, so I guess he's not that bothered about it?

       @Marina: The only way to get the link, unfortunately, is to be sent it via your Kickstarter inbox. It's set up in such a way that the link only works if you are signed into KS and click the link in the message, so it's impossible to distribute the link. If you aren't sent it, you aren't getting it, I'm afraid.

   30. 

       Creator Marina on September 23, 2012

       I pledged a bit after the link was distributed, apparently - I don't suppose anyone would know how I'd go about getting a link?

   31. 

       Creator Anna on September 23, 2012

       people who spend over $50.00 are allowed to beta test the flash game that will be distributed later on in the series. I do NOT like that the backers who are over $50.00 are being disrespectful and actually posting spoilers, i consider this opportunity to beta test a high honor.

       the unfinished update was giving to us by Hussie to beta test, we did not just "somehow" get a hold of it.

   32. 

       Creator Kat Lyon on September 23, 2012

       woops sorry guess i was a bit late

   33. 

       Creator Kat Lyon on September 23, 2012

       @Hollie Walton I'm sure the game isn't in beta already. People are just blogging about the update. somehow, they've gotten a hold of it before its been officially released and are posting spoilers all over. This isnt the Homestuck game, its an update that has yet to happen.

   34. 

       Creator Hollie Walton on September 23, 2012

       Never mind, I'm a fool. All backers get to beta test the actual homestuck adventure game, over $50 backers get to test the next game update. I should've caved and bought that seerpak a few days ago...

   35. 

       Creator Hollie Walton on September 23, 2012

       @Samuel. Some people have started blogging about the beta test, so it must be available. One of the bloggers posting about it said it was only for backers who pledged over $50, though. I must have missed where that was written - or else perhaps those who backed more get sent the beta test link before the lower tier backers?

   36. 

       Creator Samuel Driskill on September 23, 2012

       @Martin I was wondering that too.

   37. 

       Creator Martin on September 22, 2012

       Um, does anyone know when the beta-testing begins?

   38. 

       Creator Joselyn Palmer on September 22, 2012

       Good Work Internet

       Bang up job on these comments

       Absolutely nothing here that makes me embarrassed to be associated with this fandom, nope

       Really, just, excellent work all around.

       But seriously, these stickers are awesome and I can't wait to decorate my laptop with them. :)

   39. 

       Creator Mana Gement on September 21, 2012

       I am so very happy about these stickers. Not just that they're wonderful in their own right but that they demonstrate What Pumpkin meant it about already planning to broaden representation in the official swag. I love seeing art that puts my brain through all the permutations of what our blank template heroes can look like.

   40. 

       Creator Sorceror Nobody on September 21, 2012

       @Chelsea: Well, it's possible the plot will be kept out of it. Beta testing is really for the engine, to find actual programming bugs, and we may get a version of the game with a "fake" plot, if one at all, to avoid spoilers about anything other than the game mechanics.

       Hussie could also make it a legal clause that if you beta test the game you agree to non-disclosure. And if he chose to do so, it would be legally binding and anyone not adhering to it could legitimately be prosecuted for it. But I'm not sure whether he'd bother with that.

       There are possibilities either way on this issue.

   41. 

       Creator Cammi Medina on September 21, 2012

       Does the beta testing apply to backers who don't fall into any of the reward tiers?

   42. 

       Creator Matt LaChance on September 21, 2012

       The more I look at the stickers, the more I like them. I only wish I could have two Karkats for more-realistic shipping.

   43. 

       Creator Alexander Bennett on September 21, 2012

       I know what to talk about! The new making-of art book! Let's go for $2 million guys!

       What, why the hell are you talking about stickers? Oh, right, no good reason. Well then, let's talk about literally ANYTHING ELSE. For example, what did y'all like most about the little Meenah mini game? I liked the part where she grinded down the stairs. That was pretty sweet.

   44. 

       Creator Kenny Chow on September 21, 2012

       guys,
       if you don't like the ADDITIONAL FREE stickers you've been given,
       you can like,
       not use them.
       or just give them to someone who will.
       it's that simple.

       Creator Toboe on September 21, 2012

       People are still complaining?

       Jeez thats disappointing.

   46. 

       Creator Qweis2 on September 21, 2012

       THEY ARE STICKORS! We already have the game funded, and you... what else do you guys want? An actual... like... warhammer of zillywoo? we're all part of the same fandom so just get along, peeps! they are blank/white. that's canon.

   47. 

       Creator Calli on September 20, 2012

       None of us should be allowed to beta testers. this is just gonna cause disaster and spoil it for everyone who has not pledged, and the spoilers are just going to fly around tumblr regardless of what the people who ask everyone to not spread spoilers.

   48. 

       Creator Dad on September 20, 2012

       What an awesome update!

   49. 

       Creator A.J. on September 20, 2012

       Suggestion for future tiers: Sheets consisting of only the ♥ ♦ ♣ ♠ stickers. Like, a whole page full of them. Hardcore shippers will not be sated with such paltry numbers.

   50. 

       Creator Samuel Driskill on September 20, 2012

       I am pretty surprised at all the race comments, to be honest. I mean the original four aren't even human anymore, they're gods, so I don't see how it matters at all, and more importantly, OMIGAWD THEY'RE SOOOOOO CUTE!!!!!!!>.<! and it comes with SHIPPING STICKERS!!!!!!!! SQUEEE!!!!!!! and by the by has anyone else had to try really hard not
