 		Got card and patch in the mail in Miami today.

I gotta say, the patch is really nicely made. I'll have to ask them where they got these things done. Smile


ETA:

Although I'm not usually a fan of "let's ask for money" ARGs, these guys seem to be doing it right.

They're not doing bad so far; $1,700+ pledged. If this model works for them, I might try it some day. Smile

But I do have to ask: The $6K is for what exactly?

Just some production cost for everyone helping out with the project. He said in the video.

So... how many of you have started working on your sock puppet avatar yet? Smile

I definitely have a few ideas as far as concept, but as far as actual construction, I have to dig around to find my trusty old hot glue gunnnn.

How could you miss it?! It's like the biggest item at the top of the kickstarter page you linked!

By the way, here's your Trout

 		Surprise!
Rather unexpectedly, I got my copy too - But with a robot instead of 011ie as well... I'm pretty sure (but could be wrong), that all of those who signed up after the recommended date got the Robot instead of 011ie. Just a hunch.

I wasn't at a location where I could see the video.

And I'll just add that trout to my collection, thank you...

 		Got the postcard and robot badge as well... I have to say, I'm really excited for this, and I wasn't even a part of MLR!

 		Sure I'm counting my chickens before they hatch, but those patches are really cool. Very Happy
Now I just need some inspired ideas for avatar designs and places to sew the patches.

 		I, too, got my patch today. I'm hoping I get a chance to donate something. I'm thinking I have the perfect sock for my avatar...
