Go GtG!

GtG is probably spending the day filling out orders, but they have to take a break sometimes. When they do, they can see this thread of encouragement. Fellow forumites, let’s encourage GtG!

Go >G! You guys and gal are great!

Thanks for all your awesome work, you guys!

Yeah, you guys rock! :D

In honor of all those who have opened their homes for a Mechanical Golem this Christmas, and the >G employees who have worked hard to give each Chomper and Chompee a Happy Christmas:

Sitting Patiently

Mr. Chomps awaits a home

It's Adoption day.

Thanks for all the hard work.

I greatly appreciate the >G folks - all of them - for doing cool things to make our lives more interesting and fun, for being great people, and for caring. They are awesome!

The first transport is away.

The second and third transports should leave some time this afternoon.

Yes, thank to >G, and to Pydro for starting this thread. I was taught SotM a few months ago, and since then my 7yo son and I have had great fun with it. The game itself is clearly a labor or love, and we love it.

I'm looking forward to my RRR (Rook city + infernal Relics Reprint) + promos + a couple of other things order. I think that >G is being admirably flexible right now. You want both expansions in one box, cheaper than buying them separately would be? (Yes, of course I do!) You got it. You want just one of the expansions, no box, since you've already got the other? You got it. Oh, you just want the box? You got it. And you get promos too. 

I'm sure that there will be complaints from people who were hibernating in December, and so miss some of this but I don't think it's reasonable to expect you to be this flexible indefinitely. 

Andrew, with best wishes for 2014 to all at >G, and all in this community.

I don't think anything I could say hasn't been said better by this man: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KxGRhd_iWuE&feature=youtu.be

You guys rock!

*eyes up the massive boxes of Mr. Chomps plushies*

RELEASE THE SWARM!!!

Seriously, though...you guys rock on toast.  

I already got my R&R box, and have barely managed to fit everything up through vengeance into it and my EE box.

Also, WOW dat Gloomweaver. 150 health? AND all that damage? That's ridiculous!

I'll just add my own contribution to the huge pile of "omg >G are amazing" messages :). I continue to look forward to All Of The Things, whatever they may be, that come out in the future - the new expansions and everything like that...and Mr Chomps :D.

Is there a gal?  I thought Jodie was male.

Yes there is a gal, and that gal is totally Jodie.

Well, the picture I saw was of them in a forklift, I guess it's pretty hard to spot gender clues at that scale.

Do what you need to do.

I have a group of friends awaiting to get Rook City and play the cards that have been out of print for awhile. Its going to be great, thanks for the effort >G!

Yes, and I would like to know what cards have been changed, so that I may change them!

Thank you guys for making a game that I totally shouldn't like, but absolutely love. And thank you for being awesome, of course!

Much appreciation for everything. :)

Keep up the good work, folks!  We know you're working hard!

I will add my general feelings of go-ness to the others already expressed here.

But do not forget the most important part of go-ness, that of going home for a break when you need it!

I found this card loose in my Shattered Timelines package, dunno if it was dropped by accident or a misprint or something. But you guys keep going all the same!

*reads your signature again*

HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA

You sure are funny.

In unrelated news, remember that glitch we had a while back that says "Oops, this website tried to create an infinite loop"?  I'm getting it again.

Me too.

Horay! </impression of the rebel forces on Hoth>

Got my Mister Chomps! I was also able to give one of my partners in crime IR as a graduation present.

Thank you >G!

My oversized villain cards, errata pack and Promos arrived today, Thank you >G!

Sadly for me they are a Christmas present and I wasn't allowed to do more than verify that everything was there before they got whisked off for the next 6 days.

My Chomps and promos arrived yesterday... but not my Errata Pack? :\

Highly recommend sending them a note to let them know. They might not catch it here on the forums.

Any Canadians get a notice/email saying their shippment was sent?

I sent a Tweet to the GTG account last night, but will follow up.

I haven't gotten my stuff yet!!  You stopped at J again, didn't you?  DIDN'T YOU?!?! 

Hahaha. J/K guys, you guys are indeed awesome... so keep on rocking and making awesome games!!

We strongly considered making a post saying "We just got to the J's and are going to stop to do international orders and take a nap", but we didn't :)

Everything that was ordered through mid-day yesterday has been shipped.

Any orders placed by last Sunday that selected FedEx shipping should arrive by the end of the week.  If you selected USPS shipping, your order will be slower.

If you are missing anything from your order, send an email to Jodie at warehouse@greaterthangames.com and she'll take care of you!

Thanks, Paul!

Thx for update

Got my order yesterday afternoon - Bethesda, Maryland, here. All present and correct. The double expansion, Ambuscade, errata, and promos. Sensibly packed in a box just big enough for the goods plus a layer of bubblewrap.

Thanks!

Andrew

ps not long before FedEx delivered, by account showed the order as Paid, not as In Transit or anything like that. So real life ran ahead of the web.

I got mine about an hour ago. All errata and promos accounted for

Gloomweaver now scares me, that will be a brutal fight.

Also, I really want to see vengeance now so I can look at setbacks cards and see what they tell me about our first inter-character relationship

You, sir, are hilarious. It's the flavor text that really does it.

Woot-Bang, team! I'm always happy to be a support of the great Greater Than Games team, ever growing.

Just got my Infernal Relook City reprint, Mr. Chomps, Errata Pack, and Promos!  Looks like I'm going to be doing a lot of resleeving tonight!

Someone needs to write a catchy themesong for the Greater than Games crew that can play over action shots of them packing stuff.

I still haven't received a "your order has shipped" notice yet. Should I be worried or are those delayed?

My order status is still on "Order Created" and I got mine already.  I think they are behind updating the order statuses with all the shipping they are doing.

Okay, that's pretty much what I was hoping to hear.

Same thinig happened to me. I've had my shipment for two days now and it still says 'order created'. Hope that helps.

Yeah, apparently combining all of the orders into a bulk mass-mailing means the store doesn't realize we've shipped them all. Which is annoying. But yes, everything has shipped.

We'll look into why the orders on the store aren't updating.

Fear not fellow canuckleheads! I just received my shipment today. Everything Included!

So..... YAY!

So, when can we expect a "here's what changed in the reprint" update?

Got my RCIR empty box and promos! Errata pack mysteriously missing: I can see it in my order online but it's not on the packing list included in the package.

OTOH, a super convenient excuse to pick up the play-power-draw tshirt that went up the day after I made my original order, now! Hmmm.

I have a similar "issue" except the shipping error seems to be in my favor. An order I made about a week earlier and had already received got packed in again with my RCIR, Errata, and spare token set. And I got an extra token set in the box (so 2 in total instead of 1) by mistake apparently. And I got two sets of promos since they were treated as two separate orders even though the first one was made in November.

I'm gonna have to figure out how to get these back to GtG.

Yeah I received my errata pack Wednesday along with the promos, but no sign of the empy RCIR box I ordered along with them. Left off the packing sheet as well. I sent in an e-mail but haven't heard back as of yet.

I thought I had ordered two errata packs but I only received one.  Not that this was the important part...I did get two sets of promos, which is what really mattered.  I'll just go without the errataed cards for my set for a bit.

My order was missing the empty box I ordered as well. I emailed them about it too. I imagine it'll take them a bit to get all this straightened out. At least I'm not in any hurry. 

My order was screwed up too, but I think the problem is with their ordering system, not with whoever put the stuff in the box.  My packing slip just listed the Mr. Chomps but didn't show the errata pack, even though the email receipt I got from >G after my order showed the errata pack had been ordered.  For whatever reason, those two systems seem to be having a fight and are only communicating in glares and one-word answers.  I hope they kiss and make up soon so people can get the stuff they ordered without it always turning into a whole thing.

There was some sort of problem exporting store orders that affected a percentage of shippments (though not all of them, oddly, or we would have caught it sooner). Anyhow, if we sent you extra stuff (which was very rare), don't worry about it; enjoy the extras! If we shorted you something (usually the errata pack, and occationally the empty box), send an email to warehouse@greaterthangames.com and Jodie will send you a replacement.

Since GtG is packing boxes again, it is time to resurrect this thread.

GO GTG!

GIVE ME A G! GIVE ME A T! GIVE ME ANOTHER G! WHAT DOES THAT SPELL?

GTG!

WHO IS PACKING BOXES FOR US?

GTG!

*virtual forumite human pyramid*

Think about how much harder that would have been if you used >G instad of GtG.

GIVE ME A >! GIVE ME A G! WHAT DOES THAT SPELL?

>G!

WHO IS PACKING BOXES FOR US?

>G!

*virtual forumite human pyramid*


Hmm, that seemed failry easy to me... (I even copied and pasted for extra ease)

Why do you all think boxes are being packed? I know the plan was that the games would be in GtG's hands by this weekend and that they were planning on beginning packing up orders, but I don't remember seeing any recent confirmation that that's actually happening.

Ah, in the "I have nothing real to contribute, so why would anyone bother to read this topic" topic. That explains how I missed it. :)

I read all topics, you never know when there will be a Christopher/Paul/Adam sighting!

I knew they were one person!

Of course! And if you ever see them together, 2 of them are drones to give the appearance of them being different people.

But which two?

It changes every time, so that you don't figure it out.

I have a tracking e-mail! :D

Just got mine!

Oh man, I really need to get those guides finished! So little time!

My package is now on the move - yay! :D

I haven't gotten a tracking number. I mean, I already have my copy, but I'm still feeling left out.

I have my tracking number and I am told that GSF will be arriving at my door tomorrow, yay!

I haven't gotten a tracking number. I mean, I already have my copy, but I'm still feeling left out.

No tracking number for you!

No tracking number for me, either.

That's probably because I haven't bought a copy, but I thought I'd join in anyway.

And I'm unlikely to get to play any more than the couple of rounds we did in London which makes it impossible to decide whether I'd actually like it or not. :/

I got a tracking number, and strangely, it says mine is shipping Tuesday and I should get it on Saturday.  That's one day sooner than I've learned to expect shipments coming from GtG HQ to the golden coast, so I'm excited about the new spacetime-warping technology GtG is apparently using.  Once they get it fully operational, I'm expecting my Tactics shipment to arrive yesterday.

I got a tracking number! If my history with GtG is anything to go by, I'll be disappointed if I don't get it tomorrow. I live in Kansas, so it usually arrives within a day.

I wish I was going to get a tracking number…

GO GtG!  The sooner you're done shipping out to backers, the sooner I can throw money at you for my own copy!

I can't wait for folks to put in their thoughts. I need more GSF talk on these forums. Hopefully I'll find time to finish my intro guides. Though that's looking less likely to happen before people start getting their copies

Same here.

IT CAME!!!

Now I have so much to do. Play GSF. Update some files. Play GSF. Real life stuff. Play GSF.

The list is too long, I better shorten it.

Play GSF.

YISSSSSSS

Was ninja'd with GSF today. Had to help a friend move from out of town, didn't get back until tonight. Checked my e-mail, and it said GSF was delivered! I looked up and noticed the box was sitting on the floor the whole time. I think my wife brought it in, but maybe it was always just there...

Mine is still on the wrong side of the Atlantic, but is making its way here by some route or other - it's gone from one place-in-the-USA-whose-location-I-have-no-idea to another-place-in-the-USA-whose-location-I-have-no-idea :D.

Edit: apparently, it's been delivered, about an hour ago. They just didn't bother ringing the doorbell. Nice.

Somebody's playing GSF in the back of a delivery truck right now.

Ooo, let's see if we can guess where it's gone from and too. My guess is St. Louis to Newark.

Mine now says it's at some place called Stansted. What state has a code GB?

GB = New Hampshire. It's a long story consisting entirely of lies.

Unfortunately, I'm missing The Claw's mini. Otherwise, it looks great; the tokens are really neat!

How did that happen? Could it be inside the Singularity?

I don't know, it just wasn't in the box. I'm pretty sure it didn't get caught in something else, but I can check again.

Fedex says my package was delivered but there's nothing here... :(

Mine's en route from Sittingbourne now, apparently...which probably means it'll get here today while I'm at work...and then I'm going straight from work to Ja'Ph's house and coming home on Sunday. Bahhh...

If anything is missing (card or mini), just send Jodie an email at warehouse@greaterthangames.com and we'll replace it!

GSF is at my house! Unfortunately, I'm not for another few weeks...

I'll hold it for you, just tell me where you live…

As expected, at Ja'Ph's house now and have checked my e-mail to find a "your package was delivered" message from FedEx…typically, it came about ten minutes after I left the house…which would have been ten minutes before I left the house if I hadn't had to leave about fifteen minutes earlier than usual in order to catch an earlier train so I could drop my stuff off at Ja'Ph's house on the way to work.

Oh well, at least I know it's waiting for me for when I get home on Sunday…and then Ja'Ph' is coming to mine on Monday so we'll be able to try playing it then :D.

I just got my "it's been delivered" email too, which means that it came a day before the day they originally estimated, which was already a day earlier than is normal.  I always have a hard time following time travel stories like this.

Was it really delivered, or will it just have been delivered in the future's past?  Guess I'll find out when I get home from work tonight.

Be careful. If you open it, it may not be delivered.

Schroedinger's GSF? :O

Whee, spent a couple of hours sorting through all my GSF stuff when I got home, making sure all the card totals matched those listed on the back of the box and stuff, and then shuffling each deck and arranging them inside the box with their dividers and stuff. And putting the bases on the spaceships. Everything seems to be there, as far as I can tell. I have in fact got an extra mini of one of the ships, for some reason. There are also these little plastic base thingys that came with the main game which I have no idea what they're for (it looks like they're made to have cards slotted into them). I expect that'll become clear when I actually start a game.

Tomorrow Ja'Ph' is coming round and we'll actually be able to play it. Well, try and play it, given that neither of us have a clue as to the rules just yet so we'll be muddling through with the manual :D.

The clear bases are meant for the non-mini representation of the ships, so you can stand them up.

Ahhhh, the little cardboard ship thingys - right, I hadn't even thought of that, lol, I just punched them out of the cardboard sheet and stuck 'em in a bag :D. I'm not entirely surewhich bit serves as the "board" for the game onto which you put the minis, but I've so far presumed it's the big cards with the pictures of planets and stuff on.

It is gonna take a long time to get through our first game, I suspect ;).

Which ship did you get an extra of? If it's the claw, I think that's mine...

No, it's erm..Basileios, I think the name is? One of the War Speccy ships. The mini looks a bit like a carrot and the image on the ship card looks like a round cluster of grapes with string/jellyfish tentacles sticking out the back ;). It's just the mini I have an extra copy of - there wasn't an extra stand to go with it.

That's actually the mini I'm missing. Have the full amount of stands, just 9 strike force ships. Now I know where it went 

Lol well maybe I can send it to you or something...are you in the UK? I don't know if there would be a big PnP charge to even send it abroad considering it's so tiny - I don't think I've ever posted anything that wasn't a letter (and have never posted anything outside of the UK)...

I'm in the US, and on the west coast at that. I wouldn't worry about it; I've already contacted GtG and I'm sure they'll take care of it.

We will! If you haven't gotten an email back from me about it, you should today!
