Can you do it anyway? Such excite!
Is it looking positive? It appears to be but I have no idea how these things pan out after the initial people jump on

It's roughly what I hoped for, in week 1. You could argue we're ahead, but all that's happened is the highest tiers have gone faster than expected, with lower uptake than expected of the initial ones.
If we were shooting at 7.5k and no more I'd be ecstatic, obviously, but the whole point of this exercise is to get considerably past that.
Core audience have performed above and beyond (love you guys, you're the reason we're still here!) but traction with the casuals and HTID USA ravers isn't where it needs to be. I didn't expect it to happen off the bat, but it means there's a lot of work still to do.
That said, we haven't revealed everything, and proper descriptions and mock ups of stuff will be drip fed through the campaign.
I'm pretty optimistic; it's never been done before (the cameras we're eyeing up genuinely are more typically used for blockbuster films. Think: Avatar 2, The Martian etc) and we're very lucky to be able to keep so much of the time consuming sorting/editing/mixing in house or this would be heading towards 6 figures rather than 5. As a scene, we can end this with something that stands toe to toe with *anything* else in this vein. It's just whether there's the collective hunger and vision still left after the infighting and slow bleed of the past few years.

I've been refreshing it quite frequently, it jumped quite a bit after Fracus' video and steadied out again, casuals and mainstreamers are so irritating.. hope they will jump on board, I'm wondering if it's just got to the point where people just don't want to pay for anything anymore though
edit: woooo! ?5077!

That's exactly what it needs, grassroot support, inventive motivated backers and team.
We'll do it, I'm increasingly convinced

Trying to think of ways to spread the word that haven't been done already.
Told my mum but she isn't interested sadly.
Will chew a few ears at my next gig/event appearance

I'll try bringing it up in the chat when I tune into radio shows like tonight during hardcore hodgepodge. Different things like that. Maybe talk to Silver for this website & Checky at krafty radio to see if you can be featured on the main page of the sites.

Has the main HTID fan page shared this? 100k+ fans I think. Gotta be a few grands worth in there!

I'm looking at it right now and I see nothing. BUT surprisingly they did share the release of HU7! That's progress, right?

I wasn't knocking HTID. They've shared ReBuild and Stamina stuff in the past. Was genuinely just curious because if they do there's a fair bit of monetary potential there, just in terms of numbers.

Yeah, I think it would add a substantial boost if HTID shared it.

Such a cool idea. Been spreading the word.
Love the fact the ?150 shout out tier has been pledged. That is one pricey shout out! heh :) But for a good cause.
