I might be stupid but i have a question.
I download the text two times.(yes im daft)
And today i got the "The package RimWorld - Influencer has just been updated by the merchant" mail and when i hit the link i get to the Download page. But it says 3/5 left(the two .Txt files i downloaded) What happens after 3 more "patches" or "builds"? do i get refreshed and get 5 new Downloads? or am i in s*it creek and no more paddles left?

Still no email here.... no complaints either; I know Tynan is trying to distribute this game to almost 10,000 people.

That being said.... I REALLY cannot wait to play this game. I'm all giddy and excited.

UPDATE: Less than 10 minutes later and here it is! YEEEEHAW! I'll be seeing you folks on the flipside!

not a stupid question at all... i seem to recall this coming up elsewhere (in the campaign comments perhaps?)... Tynan responded with a comment that made it sound as though it was nothing to be concerned with, but unfortunately, i cant locate his exact response...

edit: found this response from Semmy which should clear things up... :)

My payment went through on the first day, I have no mail with a key yet though. Help please?

Amazing work Tynan, stick to these priniples and I can see you taking Ludeon Studios to great places, unfortunatly a lot of the larger companies have lost that and its starting to bite them.

Now is your time my friend" *Insert insperational Speech... with mentions of Boomrat Grenades*

Joking aside I really am eager too see where you take the game in the next nine months... and any other games you come up with in the future
Title: Re: Check your email
Post by: Reppyboyo on November 04, 2013, 05:41:20 PM
Well, as I predicted. I suck at this game. :D

Great fun though, even for a pre-alpha.

So, I got the update #8 email, but I did not get an email with a download link for the game. My payment processed as soon as the Kickstarter ended. Am I missing something? :c

As I've read this note yesterday, I just had to check my own email.. No, I didn't got an email with a download link. I checked again and again and checked even all my other mail accounts. I even logged in manually to check if maybe it got stuck in the spam folder, still nothing.
Addmittedly I was a bit down and thought maybe something went wrong with my payment so I prepared for the worst. Maybe something WENT wrong. And I HAVE to wait until mid November..
But,  just as I've lost all hope and wanted to shut down my computer.. *ping* "you've got mail"...

Just one thing from here:
Thank you Ty for your hard work to make it possible that I had my very first colony yesterday evening :)

For all those who havent received a email.
Keep in mind some possible explanations.

- The payment didn't go through.
- Do you have the right backer tier?? Only influencer tier or higher get a download link now. The others are estimated at jan. 2014
- You'r email provider's server are powered by cycling monkeys and they are protesting for bigger banana's.

Post by: czar on November 05, 2013, 01:27:24 AM
That will be it - I am colonist. Bit annoying to receive an email suggesting I can download, when in fact I can't. No matter I can wait, it isn't like I actually have time to play :)

currently on lvl 131 of Dungelot on my phone (in one sitting)... while playing the zombie tactical prototype on my PC... i'm not even pretending to work at this point... and i have no idea what i've signed or agreed to so far... so long as they dont pretend to pay me... this will be a great day

Still no email  :( I double checked to see if my payment for the Mercenary tier cleared the first day and it did.

I'm not complaining about not getting the pre-alpha right away, I'm sure they've got their hands full with thousands of emails already. I'm just wondering if I should be concerned about anything like mismatching information or something like that. :-\
