Post Shipping Update
over 1 year ago – Thu, Sep 12, 2024 at 07:50:42 AM

Hello cannibals, chefs, and the like, 

We are 2 months past the big wave of shipping so I’m coming in to check on and address a few things.

The Dice Delays -

As mentioned previously the great oversight of hand painting 400 dice is ongoing, so some of you are still waiting for dice. You will each get notifications once your packages are out so worry not they are not forgotten. Foreseeing how long this would take is exactly why I opted to send your books with *some* not all of your dice so your wait wouldn’t be as painful.

The Painted Minis -

Those who paid for painted minis, paid a premium and will get their cannibals in all their glory soon. Although the dice really pushed back the timeline on these I am hoping to get them to you next month for all sorts of Cannibal Festivities. 

Replacements & Errors - 

Although I have mentioned it in DMs to those who have packages missing a mini, or with an errored book, I was waiting for the last books to arrive to the far corners of the world to compile my list of “bonus shipping” to remedy all of that. Although I have a small list of fixes, you are welcome to reach back out to [email protected] if there are any problems you need fixed so I can get that shipped out to you! 

Now the glory of the game… 

F&F made their first appearance at NOVA OPEN!

We were running all sorts of horror in THE ROOM OF DOOM! Which nearly sold out all seats at during our 10 games. It was a whirlwind and a blast, F&F will definitely be running more con games in the future.

Shout out to those who made deals with the darkness during our TSIF runs, and the guy who ordered room service because Smorgasborg was making him hungry! 


 

Lastly - for those who missed the launch of our latest Mork Borg romp or are looking to pick up some other F&F products, our backerkit is open!

This will be the last place to snag prints before next year, with books, zines and comics a plenty, (And a chance to get a hard cover copy of Smorg if you hadn’t). Here’s a little peek of what you’ll find, follow the link for more info! 

Wish THE ROOM OF DOOM would run horror by you? Let me know some of your favorite cons so I can add em to the wish list!

The Long Awaited Dinner Reservation
almost 2 years ago – Tue, Jul 09, 2024 at 08:41:30 AM

Short and sweet update 

WE ARE DONE*.

After about 120 packages, and more handwritten notes then my hand can remember the buffet is finally coming to a close.

My stateside backers should have their tracking numbers and should see their treats over the next couple of days. My international backers should be getting their tracking numbers once it leaves the distribution hub, and should have their treats within the next 1-3 weeks depending on distance.

It's been a haul, but I'm proud of the horrors you will all uncover soon! 

Some notes -

The packages that have yet to go out -

x5 "Dice only" packages

x2 Address change packages

x3 Minis-only packages

x3 Painted mini packages (only your minis box, the rest has been sent)

All but the painted minis should be out this week, the painted minis within the next week or two as I am wrapping those up.

For folks who grabbed the minis, I have been working on some video painting tutorials for our minis to help guide you on your cannibal painting journey, keep an eye out for those over on our Instagram, @theflagellantandthefool over the next couple of weeks. I'll be covering, "Patchwork Skin Leather" for all you fashonistas, "Blood-soaked Metal", and "Bruised Flesh", Fit for your Ironchef, or other Pyramid head adjacents, and "Worm Skin" for the holiest of Tapeworms. 

If there are any other aspects of your Smorg minis you'd love to see in tutorial form just let me know!

FINAL COUNTDOWN 4 - UPDATE / Power Week
almost 2 years ago – Wed, Jun 26, 2024 at 08:30:23 AM

Hey folks! Very quick update to let you all know what is going on. Although I had intended to have the packages out earlier this month my plan was cut short by an out-of-state work trip and a series of emergency vet visits for my furry friend. The good news is I am back to packing!

Most of the remaining orders are packed and ready...

With the final boxes awaiting some fresh dice, that I am painting up as I type this (their wash is drying!)

The TLDR / Facts

  1. All remaining packages will be sent out by Friday, I have been slowly responding to messages today but if you are waiting a response you can expect it by then too with tracking to boot!
  • Given the delay the dice have been causing, some of the packages with large dice orders (8-12 dice) will be sent partially filled to get you your books and minis asap. I will be sending you your remaining dice in a separate smaller package as they are finished. You will not be charged for your additional dice shipment.
  • My limited backers who are getting painted minis, you will also be receiving your minis in a separate shipment from your books, also at no charge to you. This is just to doubly ensure their safety in transit, and to ensure your faux-leather books don't damage the finished minis!

Although I will be responding to messages, I won't drop another update until Friday so I can focus on getting these out the door. Thanks all!

FINAL COUNTDOWN 3 - We have LEATHER!
almost 2 years ago – Fri, May 31, 2024 at 03:43:50 PM

The single biggest time, and money sink of this whole project is finally here. The rollercoaster that was getting this book to print right was worth it for how good it looks. I cant sit and revel in finally having this box in because now I try to pack as fast as possible. I cant wait for you Limited Edition backers to finally get this freak book in your mitts! 

FINAL COUNTDOWN 2: Batches 1-3 are out!
almost 2 years ago – Wed, May 15, 2024 at 07:23:27 AM

First round of speed updates, batches 1-3 are out, and tracking numbers should be out to you now/shortly!
