I have eight Twitter posts, though each is a different follower. They're all interested in octopuses rather than hedgehogs, though. I told them anyway -- what could go wrong? -- and one of them pointed out they'd much rather have TFT PDFs. Maybe a Hot Spot: Garden in the Shade?

The $99 level is tempting, since it's basically free money if you were thinking about buying some PDFs anyway. And you'll get up to twelve others thrown in, too. Might as well back the KS rather than just go shopping at W23.

(Same logic at the $30 level, though no bonus credit. Might as well get the KS PDFs along with that major book or three little ones you were going to buy.)

Bit worried about that $99 pledge level. I have to look long and hard to see whether I still have $130 of GURPS pdf purchases left on Warehouse 23. I hope Pyramids are included in that, aren't they?

Similar thing for me, there's some stuff I haven't picked up yet that I want to, more then $30, but I doubt anywhere near $125, unless I wanted to get every issue of Pyramid that I haven't already.

I am sure the team will work with everyone during the BackerKit stage, but only PDFs published by Steve Jackson Games -- and on Warehouse 23 when the BackerKit survey is open -- will be allowed as add-on items.

I know if I wait a week or so I'll learn, but, since I failed (well, waived) my self-control roll for Curiosity: what is the highest unlock?

(Besides things like "functionally infinite: okay, we have so many extra resources we can work on Vehicle Design now" and other "More always boosts how many resources get sent to GURPS")

I do actually get regular e-mails about hedgehogs. Comes from signing online petitions about environmental matters. (Specifically, about the need to allow for hedgehogs when building new developments. Poor little Norman sometimes needs access tunnels.)

A dozen 10-page PDFs. As the pledges at all three pledge levels add up and cross whatever magical thresholds Phil has set, we'll unlock these one at a time until we reach 12.

Note carefully that this is separate from reward levels, which are $3 (all unlocked PDFs), $30 (all unlocked PDFs + $30 credit on existing GURPS PDFs), and $99 (all unlocked PDFs + $125 credit on existing GURPS PDF). It's theoretically possible to unlock just one PDF, in which case that's "$3 for a PDF, $30 for $30 of stuff + a PDF, $99 for $125 of stuff + a PDF."

Thus, lots of people pledging, especially at the higher levels, benefits everybody. But there won't be unlocks above the 12 PDFs we're talking about here. As far as I know.

Ah, that's what I assumed, thank you.

I suppose I was actually after what the highest "magical threshold" was.
