Goal Tenders
Today brings the end of the d20monkey: First Edition Kickstarter campaign and to say that I am grateful to everyone who pledged, linked, shared, or talked about the campaign to make it what it is would be a gross understatement. There’s no punchline here, no self-depricating comments, or deflection. Each and every one of you made this possible and exceeded EVERY expectation I had going into the campaign. I thought First Edition would fund. I thought it would take most of the time but it would get to the goal and all would be well. Sure, I researched the stretch goals just in case (and I’m glad I did) but I did not expect to hit them. As I said in an update to the backers, I thought the Adventure Game stretch goal at 16k fucking dollars was super ambitious but you blew all of my stretch goals out of the water with days left.
I teared up when the project funded. I’ve teared up a few times and I don’t care how that sounds, it’s the truth. Do you realize your support is making my dream of doing d20monkey full-time that much more of a reality? Your pledges and support have directly affected my future and the future of d20monkey. I will NEVER be able to thank you enough. Never.
Thank you all so much for believing in me and my little comic of gaming, geeks, and dick jokes.

Perhaps my favorite sketch from “The State.” Kudos on your Kickstarter success.
Mine too. I laugh every time I think about it. I wondered how long it would take for someone to catch the reference. Thanks for not letting me down. 🙂
As much as I felt The State was just trying to be the next Kids in the Hall, I did love me some Barry & Levon.
Aahhh yeah 250 dollars worth of cream pudding !
Can we get some respect for Bayou Billy? Every ass should have some special time with upwards of $200 of pudding, but sometimes you just need to get down with some street fightin’, light gunnin’, 4×4 swampin’ fun. M’just sayin’
P.S. Gratz Brian! Where’re my phat lewtz? 😛
“Don’t worry your pretty little head about it, baby. It ain’t your concern.”
Its all about the dick jokes, cant live without the dick jokes. you need 20k for more dick jokes? here, have ALL THE MONEY.
It’s an amazing feeling to run a successful Kickstarter. Brace yourself for the ending. The feelings are all over the place. Just take a few moments and roll around in the reality of the success. Bask in it.
Man, I had Bayou Billy as a kid, and I don’t remember how I got it. I think a devil stealthed into my room one night and planted it in my collection. Damn devil. It would have been better had he just molested me.
A friend had Bayou Billy, we used to laugh about how he kicked.

Shit! We coulda gone to Waffle House? Dammit. I’m pledging more money next time.
Dude. You have an awesome comic strip, and I await it popping up in my RSS feed. The hoodie I bought from you last year is also made of awesome and win.
Bayou Billy! Wow. Just wow.
Ah, there’s that waffle house reference :).
Also, congrats again.
HAHA! I thought you might notice that and thank you very much, Brandon.
You win! You win! Barry and Lavon reference wins!
