I didnt get mine yet either and figured since it was in the Summer Sale? Something else recent it had to be plugged in separately like the prior published stuff. So expecting it in the near future.

I'm seeing a few different flavors of "what you should have." In the "you've got downloads" message, there's a link to a page where I can download the dozen campaign PDFs and nothing else. That's pretty much what we got last time at this point in the campaign.

On that page, there's a link to the pledge. However, that's just a description of the pledge level.

In the message indicating that my card had been charged, there is yet another link to the order as a whole (https://gurps2021challenge.backerkit.com/backer/review). On that one, everything I ordered, virtually and otherwise is correctly listed.

Just give it time, folks. Backerkit is a very manual process as well. You have to create each Distribution Rule one at a time, and the PDF Challenge probably has HUNDREDS of variations as basically the entire SJGames library was up for the taking if you wanted it.

Each file requires creating a "rule," adding the appropriate file, beginning distribution, and then "blasting" the emails [1]. With my Delvers to Grow project, I had all of 14 files to upload, and that took a while. SJGames has rather more than that.

[1] I am reminded that I am no longer allowed to "blast" anything. Fair enough.

When will these PDFs be available for general sale?

You can get them right now on the backer kit preorder I think.

Please do not email to say "I didn't get X item" until we post an update that all fulfillment is complete. This is going to take time, and every email asking "where is X?" slows down the entire process.

The estimated delivery date is December 2021. We will try to complete fulfillment before then, but it is a manual process and takes time.

Please be patient. We will post an update when we have news.

Yeah, man. No problem. I'm up all night anyways. So I'm always popping up on the forums.

Got my challenge pdfs. my Monster Hunters at some point in the not too distant future will be making a trip to a Mysterious Airfield. Instead of aliens it will have been a Buffy style Initiative research base. Unless I do decide to use the Xenology supplement for MH. Either way map and background to steal.
