Show older commentsCreator vid Strickland 6 days ago
Are any of the certificates still in the mail backlog? I'm still patiently waiting, and I recently saw a few photos where people had received theirs some months ago. I don't want to be "that guy", I'm just curious. Thanks!
Creator Penny Arcade on April 13
Hey, Adam - we received your previous email. Someone should have been in touch by now, I will followup with them!
Creator Adam Garner on April 13
I sent a message to the in box about a missing certificate as well but it looks like the comments page is the way to go. Hoping to get one soon. Please keep up the good work!
Creator Penny Arcade on April 4
Hey, Benjamin - someone will be in touch shortly, thanks!
Creator Benjamin on April 4
Certificate having not arrived, not that i doubt you sent it. It may have gotten lost!
Thanks!
Creator Benjamin on April 4
Who should i e-mail about the certificate, sorry to make a fuss about it, just been super excited! Love the video guys!
Creator David Schwab on April 4
Ducks!!!

Creator Barkeep on April 4
del that, last one, i went for $25, so i think i got miss on the list.
Creator Barkeep on April 4
Oh come on! i got miss in the Duck reading as i forgot to add $1 as i went for the Beta Test!
Creator Phillip Taylor on February 24
I'm still waiting on my certificate. UK based, but I have a friend in a nearby city that received his already so...
Creator Penny Arcade on January 22
John - hmm! Yes, that is super odd. I'm assuming you've checked your spam filter etc - shoot us a note to ks@penny-arcade.com, and we'll get you all straightened out. Thanks!
Creator John on January 22
I received all my tangible rewards as well as PA book 1 and RSPD3. Should I have received PA book 2 by now?
Creator Penny Arcade on January 16
Brendan: The full RSS feed was a stretchgoal we didn't hit, unfortunately. We still have ads on the comic page, meaning that ad revenue still keeps the lights on over here and wasn't replaced by KS dollars. But fear not, we think we may have a solution in the future that will be in everyone's interests. Thanks!
Creator Brendan Long on January 16
Now that there's no ads on penny-arcade.com, can you make the RSS feed have the full content, instead of a snippet and a link? It would be nice if Penny Arcade worked in offline mode on RSS readers..
Creator Nils Anker Tønner-Oldefar on January 11
I got my certificate last week. Awesome! Keep up the good work PA
Creator Penny Arcade on January 9
Bill - Should be this week, actually!
Creator Bill Wert on January 9
Hi,
Any word on when the singles will be distributed?
Thanks!
Creator Penny Arcade on January 2
Hi, Edmo - the steam code should have been delivered over a month ago. Can you check your spam folder? If not, email us at ks@penny-arcade.com and we'll get it sorted out. Thanks!
Creator Edmo Suassuna Filho on January 2
Hey guys, I got two emails so far, the ones with the books, thanks a lot :)
How is the game being sent, by steam gifting or via key-by-email? Just so I know to look it up.
I still didn't get the physical stuff, but I'm International, so I know it will take a while.
Thanks a lot! the new ad-free page is gorgeous! Happy new year!
Creator Joshua Collins on January 1
Excellent. I was just a little concerned since I never heard anything. Thanks for the quick response.
Creator Penny Arcade on January 1
Joshua - yup, you're on our "off-list" sheet, so you'll be contacted soon. Don't worry, we didn't forget about you!
Creator Joshua Collins on January 1
First of all, happy new year. With the launch of the ad-free site, i realized that I never actually received any of my rewards that were slated for December 2012. Looking back, I also see I never got the survey that was supposed to be sent out after PAX Prime.
I had one of the fancy rewards that did not include the lower ones, but I also paid for the $150 t-shirt reward (and thus all the lower ones) on top of that, and sent the email to the kickstarter email at penny arcade as instructed, but haven't heard anything about the other rewards. I presume this just got lost somehow.
Any help?
Thanks.
Creator Andrew on December 30
Received my emails for both books, the steam code, and the prints. Just need that video :) But seriously, thanks a lot to you guys, everything looks great! Happy New Year.
Creator Penny Arcade on December 28
David - The certs are going out this week! Thanks for the patience, and have a happy new year!
Creator David Gardiner on December 28
Thanks guys, got the ebook link, and the errrr "pet name", was wondering if the certificates are being mailed out as well, no mention of them in the email ?
Creator Penny Arcade on December 26
Rob, just sent you a message!
Creator Rob Harrop on December 26
Guys, just wondering if there is any update on the codes for Rain Slick. I see that you said they were being mailed out in October but mine never arrived. Thanks.
Creator Penny Arcade on December 13
@David Gardiner - the digital books are getting delivered at the end of this month.
@Mathias Uslar - the timetable on the righthand side still stands - if we deviate from that we'll let you know.
Thanks for the patience, guys - thanks!
Creator Mathias Uslar on December 13
Guys, I like your comics, but honestly, this stuff here is pretty much nonsense and really a mess I was really looking forward to the comic and got a bit upset when I saw this being first on humble bundle - but hey, I bought it because I also wanted SMBC and XKCD - I understand you have no such heavy load servers to sent out all the digital comics at once, but you stated December - I would only be respectful to all backers at least to provide an update on your planned timetable for the small rewards (x<= 25 Dollars)
Creator David Gardiner on December 11
Any update on us getting the digital book, etc
Creator Jon Sourbeer on November 29
@KevinKauffman and LaurenPagan - I'm like you, eagerly waiting for the betaread. If you guys (and/or the other two betareads, wherever they may be) are up for it, maybe we should exchange our works in the interim? I know we're all looking for feedback, and all share some common ground with PA. If you're interested, I'm sure we could coordinate it via e-mail.
Creator Kevin Kauffmann on November 26
Hey, like Lauren I also selected the Beta Read reward level. Even if it's just a ballpark figure, I'd like to know when you'd be sending out the surveys. Like, it it's just a couple weeks away or if it'll be closer to May. Kinda has some bearing on my writing schedule.
Creator Justin on November 20
When does the duck thing happen?
Creator Lauren Pagan on November 13, 2012
Ok, cool, good to know.
Creator Penny Arcade on November 9, 2012
Hi, Lauren - for the larger rewards (like the beta read), we're reaching out to you individually once the bulk of our initial reward fulfillment is done. No worries, we haven't forgotten about you!
Creator Lauren Pagan on November 9, 2012
Hey, I selected the Beta Read reward level and I haven't heard anything from you guys about it yet. When exactly do you want me to send that in (and where?) and when can I expect it to be finished?
Creator Aaron Patterson on November 1, 2012
@TychoBrahe I pledged to your kickstarter campaign and am now picking up a puppy(standard poodle(big)) in 2weeks. She needs a name. http://t.co/grrnAx0v
- Aaron Patterson @terriblesecret
Creator Penny Arcade on October 31, 2012
Hey, Adam - we'll be delivering the codes out in the next two weeks for Steam, so you can download both the PC and Mac versions from there. Thanks!
Creator Shiny Sheep on October 31, 2012
Greetings! I funded the $50 pledge which includes a copy of On the Rain-slick Precipice of Darkness 3. I've been waiting for the Mac version to be released and now that it has, I'm wondering when/how I'll be receiving it. Thanks in advance.
Cheers,
Adam
Creator Justin Adair on October 26, 2012
Thank you for clarifying with the HB charity information. I am a proud backer/supporter of both HB and PA. I still feel slighted though that's now established.
Try to make you're backers feel special on Kickstarter, Robert, not like tools. If I can get the same stuff just anywhere by paying money for it , then what is Kickstarter for? You did mess up with that one. Bye.
Creator Penny Arcade on October 26, 2012
You're jumping to conclusions with misinformation. We do not claim charitable deductions for Humble Bundle. None of the authors/creators to HB do or are even allowed to do that, as that's not how charitable writeoffs work. It's clear to me you can't be satisfied here, so again, all I can do is say I'm sorry you feel slighted.
-Robert
Creator Justin Adair on October 26, 2012
I just paid twice for the same thing, and I didn't even receive it the first time. Yes I feel slighted, and yes, if you claim charitable deductions on the HB while pocketing your "not storefront" earnings from the Kickstarter for the same thing, there will problems, only not from me.
Creator Penny Arcade on October 26, 2012
When the rewards were created, yes, the books had never been released. I'm sorry if you feel slighted by this somehow, but the rewards are not meant to be a storefront, but rather as a reward for those that wanted to contribute to the greater cause.
Creator Justin Adair on October 26, 2012
So you're still on track to deliver "a never-before released digital version of Penny Arcade Book 1, Attack of the Bacon Robots"? Can't wait. Way to go on the "Rewards". I'm wising I'd pledged more already.
Creator Penny Arcade on October 26, 2012
The Humble Bundle has a better digital delivery infrastructure than KS does (i.e. HB HAS one), but we'll still be on track to deliver for the originally estimated Dec 2012 date. We're just getting all of our ducks in a row. :)
Creator Justin Adair on October 26, 2012
So I pledged the $25 for "All previous rewards, a never-before released digital version of Penny Arcade Book 1, Attack of the Bacon Robots" which I still haven't received via my Kickstarter pledge, except I have now received it since I paid for the Humble book bundle which came with "Attack of the Bacon Robots"?
Are you double dipping mofos? Or is there another explanation?
Creator Brendon Franz on October 22, 2012
*Gasp* Fate had different plans for me, instead of bringing home our new puppy in March, we brought her home yesterday and I don't have a name for her yet! Any chance I can get a reply on that one? You guys are fantastic, I've been so happy with all the content the past few months.
Creator Jon Sourbeer on October 16, 2012
I presume you guys are still sorting out the rewards - have you considered posting a site or list that gives people an idea of what rewards you've fulfilled at this point? Looking forward to seeing the new stuff!
Creator Penny Arcade on October 8, 2012
Ekzentric Lohner: Yup, sorry for the confusion. That is Legit. Ryan is one of our guys. :)
-Robert
Creator Ekzentric Lohner on October 8, 2012
I just got an email from an individual with a reedexpo.com email address asking for my name, address, and a copy of my photo ID to be added to PAX will-call for the next five years. I am one of the 5-year pass purchasers, but I'm not about to send someone my personal information without being sure it's legit.
Can you confirm that this really is the person I need to send this information to?
