Backer Surveys Ready
about 4 years ago – Thu, Feb 20, 2020 at 07:51:08 PM

Hello Duffers!

We’ve got a full update to get through, so let’s get right to it!

• Surveys on the Way
• Duffers Backer Survey FAQ
• Preview: Advanced Course Hole Cards Artwork

 SURVEYS ON THE WAY

At last the surveys are ready to go and you should see yours pop up in your inbox over the next few days. The email will be coming from BackerKit and contains a link to your personal survey. You won’t need to create a BackerKit account to submit your survey responses, just send them in a timely fashion, since this info is important in processing your rewards.

If you don’t receive your BackerKit email by February 25th, please go to the Duffers BackerKit page then enter your Kickstarter email address and click the “Get My Survey” button. You will be sent a new email with your survey link.

Also, if for any reason you need to update your survey responses, change your shipping address, or purchase add-ons, you can use the link in this email or request your survey link at the Duffers BackerKit project page under “Lost your Survey?”

 DUFFERS BACKER SURVEY FAQ

Are all Duffers surveys done through BackerKit? Yes. All backers will need to review their information and answer their personal survey questions through BackerKit.

This is also where you will return for your Print & Play Duffers, so when you’re done the survey, I recommend you make a full BackerKit account with login and password so you can easily return to your account at a later date when the digital download is ready.

Can I Upgrade My Pledge Level or Purchase Add-Ons? Of course! You can upgrade your pledge level, buy add-ons, or even throw a little extra into a digital tip jar. If you upgrade or purchase Add-Ons, you will need to input payment information in BackerKit (that information isn’t pulled over fro Kickstarter), but you will not be charged until we “Lockdown” accounts on March 15 at 9pm EST — that’s when all Backer info needs to be in by.

What happens when my BackerKit account is in “Lockdown”? This sounds more ominous than it really is. The term just means:

• You’ll no longer be able to make changes or additions to your account (save to update/change your shipping address)
• All outstanding balances will be charged

 PREVIEW: ADVANCED COURSE HOLE CARDS ARTWORK

After a few rounds of the Beginner’s Course, you may want to up the difficulty level of your Duffers. Every box includes an Advanced Course with 9 Holes of ruthless, I mean challenging, Conditions to test the limits of your deck-building skills. But I didn’t want to spoil them for you (or scare you too badly), so I’ve just posted the artwork. I’ll let your imaginations do the rest. Between you and me, “Descent Into Madness” gives me vertigo just looking at it…

That’s it for now. I miss you all terribly — don’t be strangers! Seriously, if you have any questions, tee 'em up and send them my way... 

Cheers,

Duane

Tallying it all up at the 19th Hole

Happy Friday Duffers!

Thank you all again for taking this journey with me. Here we are 31 days later, ready to add up the scorecard, maybe fudge a few bogeys (is that why golf pencils don't come with erasers?), and put in motion all the behind-the-scenes workings to make Duffers a reality. This includes ensuring everyone gets their rewards. To that end, I've partnered with BackerKit to streamline the rewards survey and pledge management process. 

You'll be getting an email with a link to your personal BackerKit survey early next week. Each link is unique to the recipient, so no other backers will be able to see your information. I'll send out an Update when to watch for this email as well as more details on what to expect with the survey. 

If you have any questions, please don't hesitate to reach out or drop me a line. 

And in case I haven't expressed it enough, I'm...

You Did It -- Thank You!

Hello Duffers!

I am still amazed and humbled -- thank you all so much for the support and belief in the game. We've got one final day to go (well, 20 hours by my watch), one last drive before we head into the clubhouse.  Let's finish strong! (There are still stretch goals waiting to be unlocked!)

Plus as an added bonus, here are the Solo Rules for your enjoyment. My only caveat is there may be a little tweaking between now and the game's Print & Play release. 

Again, I can't thank everyone enough. Now if you'll excuse me, I've got something in my eye…

A Surprise at the 11th Hour

Hello Duffers,

Sorry to send a second update on the same day, but I thought you all should know that, regardless of where the campaign funding finishes, all the Stretch Goals will be unlocked.  

Oh look, here they are...

A thank you for making my first Kickstarter experience so amazing. Plus, I really want to see this stuff in the finished game!
