Project By
Has not connected their Facebook account.
Arc Dream Publishing, a partnership between Dennis Detwiller and Shane Ivey, produces critically acclaimed novels and roleplaying games in lines such as Delta Green, Godlike, Wild Talents, and Monsters and Other Childish Things. Arc Dream also publishes the infamous Call of Cthulhu magazine The Unspeakable Oath.
We've had an inordinately long run of warehousing and shipping problems, and we only now seem to be approaching the end of them -- as proven by the fact that nine months later I'm still learning of many people whose shipments were never shipped. If you have not gotten an email from me or from our warehouse within the last few days and you're still missing your book, please let me know right away so I can sort it out.
I'm afraid I have to add my voice to the "not received anything" pile. Boo, I say. Boo!
Have not received my books yet, but I remain hopeful. I've recently received the Delta Green: Targets of Opportunity book from Arc Dream, and have always gotten the books I backed/purchased in the end, even if it takes longer than expected...
Still no book received and no communications. Unimpressed. Given my experience with this project I will not back any further projects by Arc Dream.
Still not recieved promised hardcopy :-(
Congrats on successfully reaching the goal! What will the extra $ do for the project?
Tags for 'game' and 'rpg' are now added!
They looked cool, thanks for adding. Quick question- what Tags did you guys mark for this? It wasn't coming up under either 'game' or even 'RPG' at least to me. :(
We're posting a couple of new incentives with just that in mind!
So under 2 weeks left & we're not even 1/4 of the way there. {sigh}
I think the best hope lies with there being additional pledge levels added: Say, $50, $100, $500. These would have the same rewards as lower (additional copies, contribution recognition, etc.) but also offer things like 'Have a monster named after you' or 'Get your face illustrated in the book' or even, 'Arc will run a private MaOCT game for you at certain game converntions.'
Something big to get some big $ coming in. Maybe this would also have people upgrading pledges. You can adjust your pledge amount right?
I dunno. But there needs to be something else added to the drive or the goal won't happen.
Thanks for listening.
