As for troll ideas, I think we should wait until the new thread opens after the funding period is over.
Troll ideas? Hmmm! How about a troll who just banned a dozen people from the inn. :lol.
I'm picturing like a troll hunched over a murky crystal ball, peering at something...I dunnoAlex is indeed me! I just checked my Obsidian forum messages and saw I got the reply from Chris - he sent me the e-mail address I need to forward to, so I'm happy to send the go ahead to him
Anyone got any poses / requests for how the Troll should look? If no-one has any pressing desires for anything in particular, I'll send a reply back in a couple of hours' time and just tell him to let his inspiration guide him
Edit: He also says:
Edit 2: I did mention in this thread back when the Troll thing was first announced that I'd contact Chris about the Troll; sorry if it wasn't clearer.
Hah. A big hammer rested on its shoulder with the GAF colours and a bloodied edge could be good.
Pledging on this means we get the Campaign Almanac right? It says so in shagg's OP but I just want to confirm.
Alright. I just up'd my personal pledge anyway just in case.
I'm here, about to hop on a plane, what's up? Thought we were funded.

Q. What are you going to do with the physical products and the 10 downloadable copies and the rest of the items that come with the Tavern, NPC and Weapon? Can you give it away to everyone in the community? What if I just want a digital copy and dont care about physical?
A. Ive been in talks with Obsidian. The initial plan was to give everything away via a raffle, where every dollar will count towards the raffle. A lot of you have voiced that you rather get nothing since youve already donated directly to Obsidian for the game, or that you rather get digital product. My goal is for everyone who pledges to at least get digital copies of:
Soundtrack;
Collectors Book;
Fun Pack (Wallpapers, etc);
Strategy Guide;
Novella by C. Avellone;
Campaign Almanac;
Kickstarter In-Game Item* (if possible);
Beta Key* (if possible);
Special GOLD thanks in credits: Credit will go to "NeoGAF Community" as it's a joint donation; and
Memorial Stone: Credit will go to "NeoGAF Community" as it's a joint donation.
These are the things that Obsidian can easily giveaway without jeopardizing any purchases. If we do end up getting additional digital copies of the game, that will be given out to the community.
It'll be a great way to spark the interest of those that were not sure of getting the game to eventually getting it if they love the material.
Are you planning to post our grand, grand total, shagg?
Am I still in time to donate?
In case we can't get these things, we can always just do the raffle - so it's no big deal.

@Obsidian Can you guys add squids to Project Eternity? You already got the perfect environment for them in the underground water level!

That sounds pretty much like a confirmation of there being squids in the game.

Greetings from Amazon Payments,
We wanted to let you know that we successfully completed a payment to Obsidian Entertainment, Inc. for $5500.00 on Oct 16, 2012.
Let the games begin!
Keep in mind that they're totally wasted.
I am sorry to give this a 4 month bump, but was there any new news here? Did Obsidian ever got back to us what we can and cant do? Did they ever comment about what to do with the physical goods that we'd have liked to trade in for digital stuff?
Were there any updates on this project in general? Why is there no proper thread made by Shagg about the follow up discussion? There was a discussion thread but I thought Shagg meant to create a new one, and that one died fast anyway.
SHAAAGGGGG, I demand ANSWERS!
Edit: The updates from the devs in the timeframe of those 4 months:
1. Art stuff
2. Non-Core Classes, Cooldowns, Attack Resolution, Damage vs. Armor and a Tileset!
3. Pantheon Design
4. Dwarves and Doors
Tbh, thats not really much in terms of dev updates. That was everything I got from http://eternity.obsidian.net/ in the time frame of those 4 months. Is it just me, or does Wasteland 2 seem to be way further ahead in development?
I don't expect input to come from us for 8-12 months. When is the game supposed to be out again?

Considering that the Wasteland 2 funding drive was back in March while the Project Eternity drive was in September, I'd say you're probably right!
lol, yeah. I was misremembering it. I thought PE was before Wasteland 2 and not the other way round. The rest of the post still stands though. I am sort of surprised there wasnt any more news on the guidelines for "inn creation".

Q: When will I be able to start submitting my item, character, or location designs?
A: The guys have been talking quite a bit about this recently and have already started designing out the forms. Our current plan is to have those of you with those tiers be able to input them directly in our backer portal, and you can revise them at any time up to a certain point down the road (which we’ll let you all know – this point is when we would send out your text for translation, and it becomes expensive from this point to make edits.) But until then, start thinking about the concept for the thing you’d like to add! Adam will have an update on that in the coming weeks with more detail. We’d like to make sure there’s enough backstory and content available for you to draw connections from, and our new website will be the place for that.
Alright, so is this thing starting up soon then?
Can we get a list of backers of Project GAF Inn so that we can pat eachother's backs?

Shagg did a lot of shagging to get this good deed done. It was a sloppy couple of weeks.Did people actually give you money to pay for the KS, Shag?
I'm curious cause it just seems so weird -- or does a large portion of NeoGaf know each other very well?
Is Squidfetish a thing?
I don't remember if I donated to this but I remember wanting to. How do I know?
Check the kickstarter site... 'My backer history' or something.
Project Gaf Inn was a Kickstarter?
