  • What is happening with the number of backers? we just got hundreds and hundreds in the span of less than 10 min
  • I was kinda wondering myself, when I checked what felt like not too long ago, it seemed like just a little over 550...  but we'll take it!
  • What no dancing to celebrate?

    *Attempts the funky chicken*
    Congratulations and well done everyone!
  • Oh SNAP! This is fantastic news!!
  • I hope it's the safety dance!

    @Rumbleforge to the rescue...

  • /facepalm

    *attempts to follow @Megs with the funky chicken*

    *somehow unlocks level 2*

    Coincidence? I think not!
  • Actually... I don't think it's just June backers. I think the KS accounts are adding to this count, hence the sudden jump in numbers (it's still climbing btw). 
  • Take a step off the dance floor people... its counting people redeeming their kickstarter rewards. It's a glitch.
  • ^ agree. I think linking the keycodes counts as a "backer"
  • nice

    It's most likely counting people redeeming their kickstarter. Whether it's an intentional thing or a glitch not I'm not sure. 
  • dance dance revolution! ha cha cha chaaaaa :)

    Awww...... well that's a buzzkill, still at least it was fabulous news for @Keth :smiley:
  • I think it's counting KS people buying upgrades, etc.
    Which should count as a backer of the Summer Campaign.
    If KS backer spends more money, that's legit; not a glitch.

    I don't think it's simply counting anyone who redeems their code but doesn't actually spend any money.
    But, I guess we will see.
  • Edit: got this on Discord. 

    Shunex-Today at 4:32 PM

    @Unknown they have been notified and will be looking into it, not sure if it is just yet though.

    I would be happy, shocked, and amazed if it isn't. But very suspicious if not that. Counter sits at under 500 for days. And jumps a couple thousand within a couple hours of code redemption release?

    Nope. As yet ks backers are unable to upgrade as the emails containing that information have not yet come out. -the email sent today confirmed that they should be sent out next week.
  • Maybe because it's payday?

    How are they redeeming codes, then?
  • You can link your KS but cant upgrade until next week :)
  • To apply your code to your existing Ashes of Creation account, go to www.ashesofcreation.com/code-redeem. Enter your code (including dashes) and click the Submit button.

    Don't have an account yet? Go to www.ashesofcreation.com/register. Then follow the steps above to add your code.

    Want to see what you got? Go to www.ashesofcreation.com/dashboard after applying the key to your account.
    Note that upgrades are not yet possible. We will send another email next week when you can upgrade your existing Kickstarter pledge.

    haha
    That is wild!
    By the time they get that all sorted, the Summer Campaign will be over!

    I hope that means they will be sending e-mails notifying us that the packages have been added to the site - in addition to other methods of notification, rather than we have to wait until you receive the second e-mail before you're able to purchase an upgrade.
    :p

    Dygz I understand where you're coming from, but they've kept us up to date with when they were going to be sending these ones out, and they say that the follow ups should be with us by next week.

    As the summer campaign has got another three weeks to go yet, I think we can let ourselves look on the bright side for once :)
  • Feels like the counter counts redeemed packages. The spike happened when they sent out the kickstarter code emails. We've already unlocked the second goal and soon the third.

    So until they come out with an official stance probably middle of next week whether they are going to treat it as a glitch and roll back the counter, or double dip on pledge numbers and let it stand, don't get your hopes up.
