Backers rewards - When do they close/finish?
- Thread starter NeilF
- Start date
No deadlines have been set yet, but MB did say that we would be given decent notice if and when they are set.

The only deadline set was for physical items such as t-shirts, artwork etc and today is the last day for that although they did say they would be setting up another avenue for those items at a later date.
It is certain that the more time passes, alpha then beta1 then beta2, more the offer is reduced, and the rewards will be reassessed.
beta2? blimey, I thought it was alpha - beta - gamma - release?
In the Kickstarter, there is, Alpha, first round private beta test, second round private beta test, and recently announced, after all that, gamma.
I think we will get update on this. We don't know fully how first and second beta stages will be different. Maybe second stage will be quite short. We'll see.
Ashley Barley told me in a e-mail that it's supposed to be today or yesterday. The end of the month when all access to physical rewards is stopped.
He said that there may be another avenue for some other items that they are thinking of selling at a later date, perhaps when the game is available.
Though, the items being sold right now may never be available ever again.
Just to make them more exclusive to the backers who could afford them while the project is still funding.

Well, gamma is basically as good as release... think Minecraft BETA: Game is 90% working and will receive regular updates until going gold, but characters remain and the servers are not reset when the game is actually released for good.
If Gamma exists during three months (for example),and if the servers are not reset when the game is released, the backers will wish welcome to the new players who will buy the commercial version

It is the physical add-ons that are no longer available (although we will be putting together a new channel for some of the items, we'll release more details when they're available). The box sets are still available.
There will be some changes to how backing works in the relatively near future, again we'll release more details once things are set up, but we'll give a few weeks notice before any major changes are made.

So, the boxed sets are still available, even though Mugs, T-shirts, Charts, Concept Art, Models......etc are not.
Is this the regular boxed sets and the Premium as well?
I totally misunderstood what Ashley told me and thought physical rewards was everything that is physical.
My bad
