Deep Blue Posted January 11, 2016 Posted January 11, 2016 I've never seen a campaign fail due to fake pledges (if those are even a thing on KS), I did see one campaign where someone pledged in a 10k tier and then canceled it but he said why and even talked with the creator of that project (it was on asylum i think...)

With 20k to go and 10 days left and Kickstarters almost always get a big push at the end that resembles the opening days. There's no chance of this failing anymore.

Clephas Posted January 13, 2016 Posted January 13, 2016 Question: Does Kickstarter accept these? These things can be picked up in set denominations in grocery stores, but I've honestly never been able to figure out whether Kickstarter's rules allow them to be used. They can't be refilled, either. I like them because they don't require personal information or account maintenance fees. Since Kickstarter doesn't accept Paypal balances anymore, I need another way to donate without using a credit card, lol. Dergonu 1 Quote
Dergonu Posted January 13, 2016 Posted January 13, 2016 ^ I kind of want to know if that works as well tbh. If anyone has tried it, please do tell. Quote

Is it a pre-paid credit card or something? Pretty much what it is, yeah. Well, assuming that thing is the same type of pre-paid cards we can buy in Norway. Looks the same at least. So according to their rules it should work it seems. Good to know. Quote
Clephas Posted January 13, 2016 Posted January 13, 2016 That's the key word... it 'should' work. The thing is, whenever I ask this question, I get this answer. I'm not willing to go out and buy one of these and have it not work, lol. The whole point of this is 'can you use a card that doesn't have an associated name/personal information?' Several sites I know of don't accept cards that aren't owned/used by individuals named on the card itself. These are great because they don't require activation using personal information, which is what I don't want online, beyond the address to deliver my swag, lol. Edit: Incidentally, when I asked this same question of the Kickstarter help people, I never got an answer, even after asking it on four separate occasions (meaning I didn't get to support games I wanted to).

Decay Posted January 13, 2016 Posted January 13, 2016 I use those for a lot of things and the only issue I had was with sites that require recurring payments, there's a specific method of billing for those which some services use that those kinds of prepaid cards don't support. Kickstarter isn't one of those. I never actually backed a project on kickstarter with one of those cards before but they specifically said prepaid cards will work, so... I mean, if it fails, then just use them for other online purchases instead. You said you use those cards for other things, right? So how much risk is there really in trying? Quote
jetpack003 Posted January 13, 2016 Posted January 13, 2016 It looks like Mangagamer is also supporting this Kickstarter as well. Plus you get a freebie if you do pledge with them. Quote
Basileus777 Posted January 13, 2016 Posted January 13, 2016 The project's had another big surge thanks to MangaGamer, that first stretch goal is looking pretty likely now. Quote

Basileus777 Posted January 14, 2016 Posted January 14, 2016 Less than 5k away now. The stretch goals even beyond the first one are a possibility now. Quote
Deep Blue Posted January 14, 2016 Posted January 14, 2016 at this pace we will reach the first stretch goal Quote

The 2nd stretch goal looks probable too. With a big end surge the 3rd goal might even be in play. Quote

I don't see people throwing money like that on soundstracks and another episode. The only thing I think some backers are interested in are the first stretch goal because it is the Iris route. Quote

It's not necessarily about people spending money specifically for those, but how Kickstarter funding trends. The end days of a KS get a surge similar to the opening days, so getting another 25-30k in the last 6 days would be expected. That'd put them not too far off from the 3rd goal. It'd be pretty surprising if the 2nd stretch goal wasn't met at this point. Quote
Silver95280 Posted January 14, 2016 Posted January 14, 2016 They did it! With 5 days to go too. Quote
