I get it. The proposals came in separately over a period of time. So it wasn't like I had "here's a bunch of monsters!" in mind. They came in as three different books that wound up on the same basic timeline. Sometimes you roll the dice and win. This time (unless the next 45 hours change radically) I broke even. I mean, maybe we'll get 200 people in the next day and a half. Then we get hardcover. There are almost 560 following-but-not-backed. So it's not impossible. It's just unlikely given velocity to date.

I'm pretty sure that the 48-hours reminder contributes a lot to the uptick at the end of most Kickstarters. I know my normal routine is to do a 'Remind Me' and then come back at the end to decide if I'll actually back or not. (That helps limit my impulse buys, which are a problem for me, and which are hard on my budget. And I don't have time to read/play most things as it is. The downside is I sometimes totally miss projects I probably would have backed if I hadn't gotten busy and just plain missed the notice.) ETA: I was really hoping the Daily Illuminator would give it a good bump.

We'll get the books: The project funded a while ago. The uptick at the end? That remains to be seen.

Having more steps on the stretch-goal path is probably good for building engagement with a campaign, although it's more complicated for you. While a hardcover is nice, it doesn't provide more content.

Not only is it more purchaseable items you want to keep checking back to see progress.

Re: Nightmare Fuel: Snakes, Bugs (well, arthropods mostly), and Evil Plants for the D
Is there a way to add-on a single volume of the bestiary? I have a friend who isn't particularly into GURPS or related games but has a D&D wizard who's a Botanist of Mass Destruction.

I will probably put single-volumes in the Backerkit Survey period once the campaign ends.

Re: Nightmare Fuel: Snakes, Bugs (well, arthropods mostly), and Evil Plants for the D
I was kinda hoping that even if the stretch wasn't reached, by being a reasonable amount over the funding level without you having to create any new items (the omnibus) that meant your profit would be extended and make it more worthwhile for you. i.e. more sales on the already sunk costs.
