FINAL HOURS of The Fantasy Trip Kickstarter!! FINAL HOURS! The Fantasy Trip Kickstarter ends today (Friday 8/24) at 6pmET!! http://kck.st/2uHXzZa Closing in on $300k, which will add the final (?) stretch goal of an awesome Pocket Box version of Melee and Wizard. But what's already included...

I'm familiar with some of the sales rank numbers which you're referring to and based on what I've read, I think you are for the most part correct. But from what I've read, IIRC, those who have deciphered the numbers have said that it's thousands per day overall, not just Amazon. Thousands per...

I think you misunderstood. I'm not saying that the Amazon Rank has anything to do with Bookscan (or vice versa). I'm saying that since no one except Amazon knows how their ranks translate into units, someone (Publishers Weekly in 2013, IIRC) used Bookscan numbers to figure out how many units per...

Hopefully you are reporting those errors in the Feedback Forum, as that is the purpose of being a beta tester, and the only way the final product will meet your expectations.

Yeah, I had no idea when I posted my comments about the page controls. That's nice, though I wish it worked for the other screens (like Choose Race and Class) as well. Most of all, I'm really pleased to see how receptive they are to all the feedback and reporting they're already getting. That...

Yep, got my beta invite and started yesterday. Have had no issues at all with Chrome, hmmm. Not only that, but I was actually able to run it on my Kindle Fire HDX with its Silk browser, of all things! So I was able to create a character on the Kindle, then later log in on the PC to access that...

For all the oh-so-certain skeptics in the Really Want Access to DungeonScape thread, this one's for you:

Very, very small possibility for a number of reasons. Submissions are rarely approved the first time. Large, complex apps generally require a more extensive review. And the wait time for reviews has nearly doubled over the past few weeks, possibly due to the pending release of iPhone 6 and iOS 8...

Nailed it. I work for a software development firm, we are developing apps, and this is all true. We're a bunch of Android users, but we know where the market is right now. Beyond that, when you target the iPad, you target a very well-defined platform, one that has the majority 33% marketshare...

FINALLY, I can talk about DU 103071 !!!! ;) As Hobo the Delightful mentioned, I was one of those at Origins who got the coin and, shortly after, figured out that there must be some hidden meaning to the code. I contacted Rachael after the con, and she confirmed that the code was not unique to...

I hope so. Perhaps the rush was to get it out for GenCon, and into the hands of "the faithful", and a bigger push will come later because of the holidays, and the three books being out. EDIT: Whoops, just saw that MortalPlague said pretty much the same thing in reply to my post!

I love the Starter Set and have felt that the combination of price point and choice of components was very smart, however... I was assuming that a big part of the strategy was to get the game onto the shelves of the big box stores like WalMart, Target and Toys-R-Us. Really hit the masses for...
