Latest Updates from Our Project:
Pledge Manager: Glitches, Goblins & Clarifications!
11 months ago
– Tue, Jul 22, 2025 at 12:36:45 PM
Greetings, Backers of Patience and Power!
It is I, Scribblegut the Third, Survey Scribe, Dungeon Dispatcher, and now… Official Apologizer-in-Chief.
As you may have noticed, a few mischievous gremlins snuck into the gears of the Pledge Manager this week and caused some confusion, chaos, and one very stressed intern. This update is to clear things up, patch the leaks, and help you navigate the current state of... well... mild villainous disorder.
CAUTION: Lots of words and no pretty pictures below.
⚠️ Auto-Locked Orders & Charged Cards (Whoops)
For a couple of days, BackerKit mistakenly locked some orders and charged cards automatically. You were not supposed to be charged just yet. But the system got a little overexcited.
They are aware of the error and will help fix it. Scribblegut tried yelling at the server, but it just blinked mockingly.
🔍Also to clarify the charging schedule... - Kickstarter charges for your KS pledge when the campaign ends. This is expected. - Pledge Manager/Survey charges (for tax, shipping, upgrades, etc.) should not have occurred yet. For some of you, it did. It should not have happened until September.
❌ Need To Remove A Kickstarter Add-On?
If you added something during the Kickstarter campaign that you now wish to remove (we get it - budgets shift, goblins steal wallets), you’ll also want to contact BackerKit directly.
💸 Taxes On Digital Items (Another Whoops)
Some of you were charged tax on digital-only items, which shouldn’t have happened. We’re working with BackerKit right now to correct that and issue refunds where needed. No action is required on your end just yet. Just know that the money you overpaid is being hunted down and wrestled into submission.
🪙 Missing Your Coin?
Oh no! A tragic oversight in villainous treasure?! Most likely, it’s due to an email mismatch from a previous year’s pledge.
Here’s how to fix it: 1) Send us an email at [email protected] 2) Use the email address you think you used in the past 3) We’ll check the records and add your coin manually if you qualify
💡 Also! Some of you pledged the $1 Build Your Own tier and added items later in the survey. Since there were no physical items in your cart at the time we assigned coins, your survey wasn’t included. If this happened to you, don’t worry! Email us and we’ll add your well-earned shiny reward.
🧾 Confusion About Add-Ons?
BackerKit splits your loot into multiple tabs like a very confused treasure chest:
Pledge Items from your reward tier
Campaign Add-Ons purchased in Kickstarter
Add-On Items added in the BackerKit survey
It might look like something’s missing... but it’s probably just filed elsewhere. Take a moment to review everything carefully. Most items are there, even if they appear to have slipped into a shadowy dimension.
⏳ Still Waiting On Your Survey?
We’ve discovered a new twist courtesy of Kickstarter’s “Pledge Over Time” feature. If your payment is marked as “Processing”, BackerKit is waiting until that’s complete before sending your survey.
Why? Because they don’t want to charge you twice or send you into a refund spiral of despair. Once Kickstarter finishes collecting your pledge, BackerKit will send your survey. It’s just playing it safe. You will still have time to complete your survey to get your rewards.
🗺️ Campaign Status
Surveys: Mostly Out Coins: Being tracked Taxes: Being vanquished Scribblegut: Currently buried under a pile of sticky notes and minor regrets
That’s all for now, my overachieving overlords! Thanks for your patience as we iron out these few hiccups and hiccupping goblins.
I, for one, have accidentally charged myself twice and awarded myself zero coins. This is fine.

📬 Pledge Manager Is LIVE! + $300K UNLOCKED
12 months ago
– Tue, Jul 15, 2025 at 09:10:57 AM
Mighty Backers of Malevolence!
It is I, Scribblegut the Third, master of mail, overlord of order forms, and now… your official guide through the dark realm of THE PLEDGE MANAGER.
Yes! It’s time to gather your loot, confirm your spoils, and add just one more thing (you know you want to).
📬 THE PLEDGE MANAGER HAS RISEN FROM THE CRYPT
Soon (very soon), you’ll receive an email from BackerKit with a special link to your personal survey. You’ll use this portal to:
Confirm your pledge
Choose your rewards
Provide shipping info
Add extra goodies (wooden minis, planners, villain snacks... okay maybe not snacks)
🗡️ Click it! Complete it! Claim your treasures! You do not need to make a BackerKit account. Just click the link and you’re in.
📬 ONE MORE THING — IT’S A SLOW UNVEILING (SORCERY TAKES TIME)
The Pledge Manager is being rolled out gradually by the eldritch forces at BackerKit. So if you don’t get your email today, do not panic, cast spells, or set anything on fire (yet).
🕰️ You should receive your survey by Thursday at the latest.
Check your inbox, your spam folder, and possibly the shadows behind your bookshelf. If you haven’t seen it by Friday, we’ll help you track it down.
🔁 CHANGES? ADD-ONS? NO PROBLEM.
Once you complete your survey, you can return and make changes at any time before we close the vault.
Need to update your address?
Add another calendar?
Regret not getting the Overlord Plushie?
Just click your survey link again. And now, a moment of thunderous applause:
🎉 WE DID IT — $300K UNLOCKED!
Because of your ongoing support (including late pledges still pouring in) we’ve officially unlocked the Villainous Solo Card Game stretch goal!
This is a dastardly little bonus game you can play using a regular deck of cards, designed for solo scheming between bigger adventures. Perfect for when your party is busy or your minions are on strike.
More details soon. But for now, cackle freely. You’ve earned it.
🗺️ CAMPAIGN STATUS
Pledge Manager: Rolling out $300K Stretch Goal: UNLOCKED Scribblegut: Now sorting spreadsheets with an ominous chant
That’s it for now, my glorious chaos cult. Check your inbox. Click your link. Confirm your spoils. And maybe... treat yourself to just one more item. For evil.
I, for one, added six plushies by mistake. And I love them all equally.

🎉 Victory! The Campaign Is Complete — Here’s What’s Next!
about 1 year ago
– Tue, Jun 24, 2025 at 05:02:28 PM
Greetings, Glorious Horde of Villains!
It is I, Scribblegut the Third, professional minion, celebratory confetti tosser, and newly crowned Supreme Organizer of What Happens Next.
The campaign is complete. Successful. Triumphant! You did it. You brought this wicked adventure to life and (let’s be honest) made the Overlord’s dark little heart flutter. He even smiled. Twice. (The walls are still recovering.)
But while the campaign is over, but as all great villains know: There is always more to do.
1️⃣First, Kickstarter is going to charge your cards for your pledge. Kickstarter needs to transfer over the funds so we have the money to make the rewards (this can take up to two weeks).
2️⃣Our next step: The Pledge Manager! This is where the real post-campaign sorcery begins.
📬 THE PLEDGE MANAGER: WHERE THE REAL EVIL HAPPENS
If you’re new to crowdfunding, here’s how it works: The Pledge Manager (a mysterious realm known as BackerKit) is where we’ll collect all the details we need to deliver your loot straight to your lair.
It’s also where you can grab extra treasures! Accessories, additional games, wooden minis, villainous upgrades. Yes, you can still add them after the campaign!
We’ll send a warning screech (and a proper update) before we unleash the surveys.
🎯 You don’t need a BackerKit account! Your survey link will come by email. Just click it and answer. Easy. Like stepping over a sleeping goblin.
If you want to update your answers, buy more loot, or change your shipping address later, you can use that same survey link or request a new one using “Lost your survey?” on the BackerKit page (this will activate after we send the surveys).
⚠️ IF YOU USED FACEBOOK OR APPLE PAY:
Facebook Backers: If you logged into Kickstarter with Facebook, your survey will go to the email tied to your Facebook account. If you want to change it, message us on Kickstarter.
Apple Pay Backers: If your Apple Pay account has no email (it happens), message us on Kickstarter so we can change it or send your invite manually.
If you don’t receive your survey invite, this is likely why!
💌 A FINAL THANK YOU
Seriously.. Thank you from the bottom of our dungeon hearts!
Your support is what keeps this scrappy, villainous team moving forward, writing stories, building games, and keeping the minions busy in the castle.
We’ll update you as things progress, though updates will come a bit less frequently now that we’re shifting into production mode. I, for one, will be taking a short break to roll around in packing peanuts. It’s the little things.
Yours in villainy, Scribblegut the Third Minion of the Overlord, Keeper of Surveys, Champion of Pledge Management
🧌 THE TOLLKEEPER'S TALE CONCLUDES...
Trollin' ain't easy. Where did this army come from? Where are they going? Can you survive the final day? It is a tough final day... You are likely to die.

Subject Line: 🎉 You Did It! More Hero Art Unlocked + Meet the Villains Behind the Curtain
about 1 year ago
– Mon, Jun 23, 2025 at 07:32:41 PM
Greetings, Magnificent Minions of Mayhem!
It is I, Scribblegut the Third, campaign chronicler, tower gossip, and unpaid HR representative.
Today, we celebrate three glorious events: + The campaign is almost complete. † YOU unlocked the Hero Art stretch goal through sheer social sorcery! † I’ve been ordered to break the fourth wall and show you the secret force behind this entire villainous operation...
🏰 MEET THE TEAM (AKA THE SHADOWY CIRCLE BEHIND THE THRONE)
Now, allow me to peel back the veil and show you the secret council that powers this entire villainous enterprise...
Yes, I Scribblegut often claim credit for everything, but the truth is: This campaign exists thanks to a small but mighty crew of creative conspirators.
🖋️ Most of the writing, story crafting, planning, design, and day-to-day villainy? That’s me, Thomas Bedran. One tired Overlord with a keyboard and a dream. (Pic below) But I’m not alone.
🎨 Our art? Summoned by a global alliance of ridiculously talented artists. Including Purple Llama Creatives, Ellen, and Jay French to name a few. From detailed maps to character designs, their pens are mighty and (probably) cursed.
📱 The Companion App and test balancing tools? That magic comes from our software sorcerer, Anthony Pietz of Win Button Games, who helps keep your rolls smooth and your interface haunted.
📚 Additional Writing Support? I’ve got a few fellow scribes lending part-time help, inventing encounters, sharpening dialogue, editing, and occasionally reining me in. Including Logan, Garnet Lamb, Shield Generator VII, Emily Gould.
🎧 And behind the curtain? A couple of community champions keep the Discord realm lively and supportive while I wrangle deadlines and boxes.
And finally...
📦 Shipping? The U.S. orders are packed right from my home garage with the help of my family, a barcode printer, and an ancient rite of tape dispensing.
Not Pictured but also part of the team: Grandpa Grump, Nana of No-Yelling, Papa of Tunes
So while this is still a small, family-run company, it wouldn’t be possible without this wonderful little fellowship of collaborators.
Backing this campaign supports all of us. And gives me the chance to keep writing these stories for another year.
Thank you, truly, for being a part of it.
🎨 SOCIAL GOAL UNLOCKED. HERO ART AT EVERY LEVEL!
Thanks to your tireless sharing, tagging, and digital hollering, we’ve unlocked the Level-Based Hero Art stretch goal!
It’s dramatic. It’s inspiring. It’s slightly unsettling how good some of them look in armor.
That means each hero will get 6 unique illustrations, featured in both the Villain Codex and the Companion App.
1 Days Left. In the final stretch (bring those yoga skills!) Hero Art = Unlocked! Team = Just a family of humble overlords
That’s all for now, my share-happy scoundrels. Keep the chaos rolling. Keep the shares flying. And remember, behind every great evil empire… is someone making shipping labels on a folding table.
With genuine thanks and slightly teary villain eyeliner, Scribblegut the Third Minion of the Overlord, Loader of Boxes, Storyteller of Shadows
🧌 THE TOLLKEEPER'S TALE CONTINUES...
Time to take care of that pesky knight. Will you be merciful?

🪙🪙The Ratling Has a Name! + The Coin Loophole Is Real (and Closing Soon)
about 1 year ago
– Sun, Jun 22, 2025 at 05:49:58 PM
Greetings, My Cunning Horde of Coin-Hoarders and Rodent-Namers!
It is I, Scribblegut the Third, assistant to the assistant tormentor, part-time loophole plugger, and full-time whistleblower (on accident).
Today’s update brings two shocking developments: † A name has been chosen. † A scheme has been uncovered. Let’s dive in before the Overlord notices I’m typing this.
🐀 THE RATLING SHALL BE KNOWN AS...
Yes! After squeaking, scheming, and a very tight poll, the votes have been cast and the ratling has been crowned. Our plaguey little friend is now fully part of the villainous roster, complete with title, fleas, and festering fanfare.
Thank you to all who voted. The rodent bites less now. Slightly.
🪙 THE CHALLENGE COIN LOOPHOLE EXPOSED
So... funny story. Someone found a weakness in the Overlord’s system. Apparently, if you visit the 2024 Store, you can still purchase the previous Quest Calendars (many available as PDFs)...
And by doing so... You qualify for the Returning Backer Challenge Coins from previous years. Yes. Even now. Even still.
This is a loophole. A terrible, glorious loophole.
The Overlord is furious. I am impressed. But alas... this exploit will only remain open until the campaign ends on June 24th.
👉 Link to 2024 Store Use it wisely. Or recklessly. I’m not your supervisor.
🗺️ CAMPAIGN STATUS
The ratling has a name. Coins are slipping through bureaucratic cracks. And I’ve barricaded myself in the storage closet until further notice.
That’s the news, my treacherous treasure-seekers. Name claimed. Scheme revealed. Now go. Loot with intent. We are a few shares away from that delicious Social Stretch Goal. Blast Away.
I, for one, ordered last year’s calendar just to spite the system. And I regret nothing.
With panicked scribbles and a makeshift shield of coin bags, Scribblegut the Third Minion of the Overlord, Exploiter of Fine Print, Closet-Dweller
🧌 THE TOLLKEEPER'S TALE CONTINUES...
We will catch you puny knight!
