Not to take undue credit, but I did notice a sudden jump in pledges after I posted the Ad copy from Kickstarter on my twitter account 🙃

Woot! That's 156 pages of GURPS I'm getting for 6 USD (and some additional store credit for less than it would normally cost).

Kickstarter really has revolutionized how projects can be funded - although it's a good idea to be careful if you don't know a publisher. Fortunately, not something I have to worry about with SJG.

Anyway, more GURPS = more good. :)

Yay! Congrats to SJGames and everybody who promoted the KS... I'm going to join in the shameless self-patting-in-the-back-about-twitter-followers :D (seriously, we probably each added a backer or two, and that adds up!)

Is there any way to get in a late pledge or still back it? I somehow missed the whole darn show.

Please, help a desperate GURPSER

Thanks, Ben

GURPS material from Kickstarters usually goes on sale through Warehouse 23 after all the Kickstarter backers have it.

Will new material (Gurps Furries) be purchasable using the backerkit dollars?

The downside of this reward method is it gets less and less usefdul for long term GURPS fans as we have more and more of what we want already. But the huge upside is all that work they did for the last one should still be there for this one so hopefully all they have to do is export a file to Backerkit. Plus add a few items each time.

I'd be happy to back for more than just the basic Kickstarter rewards if I could put the extra into the Warehouse 23 store as general credit for unreleased future GURPS material, but since I already have everything eligible for the Backerkit purchases, there's no point me putting more money into backing a Kickstarter than I need for the immediate rewards I want.

Not that it necessarily solves your issue but I wanted to suggest offering the gift voucher as an option. We could use it to give presents to people we might want to encourage into GURPS or fellow gamers in our group that might not have a book as a present.
