about 2 years ago – Mon, Apr 11, 2022 at 09:50:46 AM

Alright folks, NOW is definitely the time for the remaining 25% of you to fill out your BackerKit survey. You have less than 24 hours to complete, and anyone who doesn't WILL NOT have their orders processed and shipped until a much later date. 

Again, if you do not fill out your BackerKit survey, your order will not be processed until a later date after this batch has shipped.

IMPORTANT: Credit Cards will not be charged when we lock, but will be processed soon onApril 15th.

***IF YOU DID NOT RECEIVE YOUR BACKERKIT SURVEY, or want to make changes and can't access your survey, please email me at [email protected] and I can help out***

Thanks, stay tuned.

BackerKit Surveys being locked -- 48 hours to complete or make changes
about 2 years ago – Sun, Apr 10, 2022 at 11:05:04 AM

Hey Everyone!

72% of you have completed your BackerKit Survey. That means we have some stragglers out there who still need to complete this step to get your copy of Rental Rumble on time. If you do not fill out your survey, your order will not be processed until a later date after this batch has shipped.

We initiated the survey order lock on BackerKit today around 9 AM PST. You should all have received an email from BackerKit notifying you of this 48-hour window. What this means is that we are finalizing the item count and closing the store so that we can be ready to fulfill as quickly as possible.

If you need to make any changes to your order -- revising any item quantities, add-ons (pins!), or updating your address or payment method -- you have ~48 hours left to do that before BackerKit will automatically lock your orders!

IMPORTANT: Credit Cards will not be charged when we lock, we are planning to charge all cards on April 15th. 

As mentioned, you can still add-on items to your survey before we officially lock. 

I'm debuting a ton of brand new enamel pins (as seen above) and offering them for $10 each in your survey rather than their MSRP of $12 each when I open up my online shop later in May.  So add some of those to your cart now at a discount :)

***IF YOU DID NOT RECEIVE YOUR BACKERKIT SURVEY, or want to make changes and can't access you survey, please email me at [email protected] and I can help out***

Thanks all. A lot of updates this week so stay tuned.

  • Please check your SPAM folder and make sure it didn't sneak in there. It can happen.
  • Double check you are checking the email you used to login to Kickstarter when you initially backed the project.
  • If none of the above is working out, please email me at [email protected] and I can assist.

SO WHAT HAPPENS NEXT...

All BackerKit Surveys Sending Now!
about 2 years ago – Tue, Mar 29, 2022 at 07:24:26 PM

Yesterday we sent BackerKit Surveys to 5% of you and everything went smoothly! Today we are sending the remaining 95% so be on the lookout in your inbox attached to your Kickstarter account. It looks like some of you are already filling it out as I write this update, great job!

In your BackerKit survey, you'll be able to:

  • Provide your preferred shipping address
  • Add-on items to your final order before we ship (lots of cool things!)
  • See total shipping and add-on costs for your region

After you respond to your survey, you can go back later and change your responses (add more items, change address, ect.) at any time before we close/lock the surveys. 

TENTATIVE SURVEY & SHIPPING TIMELINE

March 29th - April 12th // BackerKit Surveys will be sent and open to edit (cards not charged yet)
April 12 // BackerKit Survey answers will be locked and un-editable
April 14th // Credit Cards will be charged on all orders for shipping and add-ons cost
Week of April 25th -April 29th // Estimated shipping window

A NOTE FROM THE CREATORS

As you know, we have had a lot of hurdles bringing Rental Rumble to life due to the global pandemic and its effect on the world of manufacturing and shipping. If you wanted to show some completely unexpected additional support, there are a few ways to do so.

1.) Simply fill out the BackerKit surveys within the deadline and get your copy of Rental Rumble. This game would NOT exist without you and we are forever grateful. Thank you.

2.) Add-on some extra items in your BackerKit survey.

  • Extra copies of Rental Rumble for friends and family
  • Extra copies of the 1999 Expansion (add to your main deck for added variety)
  • Extra copies of the mini VHS Rental Return Box (get one for each player!)
  • A wide variety of enamel pins designed by Jason Furie (Cool!)

3.) Add-on a custom donation via the TIP JAR in increments of $10, $25, $50, and $100 (You can add as many of these increments to your cart as you wish. So in theory, you could donate 1 MILLION DOLLARS!)

If you do not receive your BackerKit survey within the next 24 hours please check your SPAM folder and double check the email you used to log in to Kickstarter when you initially pledged for Rental Rumble.

More updates and reminders coming soon, stay tuned.

BackerKit surveys are coming this week!
about 2 years ago – Mon, Mar 28, 2022 at 12:13:19 AM

After getting a final look at Rental Rumble, we're excited to announce that your BackerKit Surveys will be delivering to your inbox this week. We're sending a small test to a randomized 5% of you on Monday, March 28th (Tomorrow!) to make sure everything is working smooth. Assuming all goes well, everyone else should be receiving their BackerKit surveys by Tuesday or Wednesday of this week. It’s important to respond to your survey as quickly as you can since we need this information to fulfill your rewards.


You don’t need to create a BackerKit account to fill out your survey. When you receive the email with the survey, click the survey link to respond. 


In your BackerKit survey, you'll be able to:

  • Provide your preferred shipping address
  • Add-on items to your final order before we ship
  • See total shipping and add-on costs for your region

After you respond to your survey, you can go back later and change your responses at any time before we close/lock the surveys and get our final item counts. If you need to review your information or pledge status, you can return to your survey by clicking the link in your survey email.


The emails will be sent to the email address you used to log in to Kickstarter when you originally backed the live campaign. If you used your Facebook credentials to log in to your Kickstarter account, the BackerKit survey is sent to the email address you use for your Facebook account.

A NOTE FROM THE CREATORS


 As you know, we have had a lot of hurdles bringing Rental Rumble to life due to the global pandemic and its effect on the world of manufacturing and shipping. At the end of the day, our costs were WAY above our pre-pandemic estimates. It's safe to say we spent 100% of our campaign funds plus an additional 50% on top of that. At no point did we go for lesser materials or quality. You are getting the game as promised and it turned out even better than we ever imagined. That said, if you wanted to show some completely unexpected additional support, there are a few ways to do so.


1.) Simply fill out the BackerKit surveys within the deadline and get your copy of Rental Rumble. This game would NOT exist without you and we are forever grateful. Thank you.


2.) Add-on some extra items in your BackerKit survey and we will ship it all at once.

  • Extra copies of Rental Rumble for friends and family
  • Extra copies of the 1999 Expansion (add to your main deck for added variety)
  • Extra copies of the mini VHS Rental Return Box (get one for each player!)
  • A wide variety of enamel pins designed by Jason Furie (Cool!)

3.) Add-on a custom donation via the TIP JAR in your BackerKit survey in increments of $10, $25, $50, and $100 (You can add as many of these increments to your cart as you wish. So in theory, you could donate 1 MILLION DOLLARS!)

That's all for now. You can all expect your surveys no later than Wednesday. We'll be sending new updates and announcements over the course of the next few weeks so stay tuned.
