[QUOTE="humble minion, post: 8771811, member: 5948"] Personally I'd much prefer additional content than masses of miscellaneous clutter like character sheets, dice or dice bags, cards, bookmarks etc etc etc, and if i have to wait longer for it then I'm fine with that. I get no value out of stuff like metallic page edging or book ribbons, but i understand why creators include them as stretch goals. They're an additional and very visible thing that can be delivered without adding too much time to the production process. Problem is, of course, that once you commit to a target delivery date on kickstarter, you have no way of pushing it back a month or two - even when the campaign is still running - after you've hit an unexpected number of content stretch goals and have to spend a bunch more time on layout and editing. Which is understandable I guess, otherwise you're pulling the rug from under the people who pledged based on your initially quoted goal. I wish there was a better and more flexible way of doing it though. [/QUOTE]
