Bills KS post this last few days


"Collaboration sets mailing shortly. PDFs of collaboration book next week some time. It is simply too large a file to send as is via email. I tried chopping it down, it I have gone in and broke it up into separate books for PDF ONLY. I almost done with last couple books.

Right now it's just going through each backer and either sending the last bunch of sets and then bulk shipping of the collaboration books to all those that have not been sent because their sets did not include them. Other than that, not much to say."

I still have not received my Collaborator Books.  All I need is to receive these and this very long wait is over!!

I got mine as well at Garycon.  I have actually supported Bill and his company all along, this was a mistake on his part which I am sure he regrets.

A 6 month delay is regrettable. 6 years while producing other material is inexcusable.

I've always supported Bill also. I've backed a lot of projects there now and never mind the delays as long as fulfilled in the end. The worst projects are the ones where they just walk away. I think Bill has persevered and will get it all done and delivered. That being said has anyone heard from Bill recently? I must be one of the very last backers not to have received my goods (complicated by my exotic location). Want to try to to finalise it as looks like I'll be moving country again soon. Have indicated I'd be happy to pay all the extra shipping.

Nice that you support Bill but is 6 years considered "a delay"?
If he wasn't an Acaeumite I believe Bill would have been treated rather more harshly here. ( though please do feel free to contradict me if I'm wrong)

I wouldn't have thought my exotic location would have been an excuse.  I'm still waiting for the NTRPG 2016 bundle too.  We've exchanged messages probably 10 times over the last 3 years.  Every reply was very positive, like I'll get it out on the weekend.  But still Bill treats me like a fool.  Acaeumite or not, that's crap.

Surprised you didn't get sent a notification from stamps.com (though perhaps Bill's email had been hacked when called away for work with poor access to the internet) - it's okay though it's all on him :twisted:

For all those who have received their copy, how do you rate it?

Unfortunately Bill has lost sight of what this was, what the Acaeum is and who his supporters were and what that means.

Gads, I could've written a book, published it and probably delivered a sequel without breaking sweat in this time.

I back a lot of Kickstarters. Some of them run... a wee bit over schedule.  :lol:

None has ever been this late. I'm glad I got my money back and gave up on Bill years ago.

Hi All,

Bill has gone quiet again. Has anyone been in touch with him. I am back in Australia for a short window and was hoping he could send while I am here. Anyway, if anyone has contact, please let me know.

Cheers, Jeremy
