So placed my first $1K all-in on May 7 and got my production number on May 12 (4286) and tee shirt couple weeks after initial order. Placed a second $1K all-in on May 21 and haven't heard anything. Guess I was just lucky with the first one close to a date they assign numbers and send tee shirts?

Oh Yes! You really lucked out on the first one. The last time they gave us a heads up that they were going to release the numbers so people could upgrade if they wanted to. I don't know if they will do that this time or not. I don't think they did that with the previous releases. The time span has been from 5 weeks to 7 or 8 so there is no way of telling when they will release again. It hasn't been done often enough or over a consistent period of time so no way to gauge. Definitely makes it exciting. LOL :) Z

T-Shirts are separate from getting #s, not publically announced like the # batches but t-shirts do appear to be batched as well. I got my T-Shirt after 39 days and the # at close to 60 days.

Well I guess printing Tshirts and sending them out along with working with all those numbers (math is hard!) to figure out what the $1K all-in production numbers are is a lot to ask after dropping a non-refundable $1K!

Hint: Doesn't help with buyer/investor confidence when (in these days of 2 day order delivery from Amazon, etc) it takes a month and a half to get a tee shirt and 2 months to get a simple freaking production number. I have 2 friends who went $1K all-in because of my communication to them, and both are asking me what the deal is. Certainly gives the impression that if you can't get the simple things done in a reasonable manner then the more difficult things might never get done. :(

Now, now Jerry. I think we all understand where you are coming from, as we, or MOST of us have entertained those, or similar thoughts ourselves. . . . . . . . , but that was WAY BACK when we, like you, had just signed on and put our money on the line. :rolleyes:

But honestly, after you have been here a bit longer, whether you can swim or not, the warmth of the water will help calm the nerves and you will become more comfortable with the wetness. Read more, share more and interact MORE with the folks on this forum and before you know, like the Land of Oz, time will mean nothing.

We've all been where you and your friends are now. . . . . . . . How do they say that?

"Been there, done that, and got a T-Shirt."

( and NOW. A number too.). :)

Yours IS coming Jerry. Chill friend, life is Good! ;)

According to my figures that puts us at 152.5/day. Have fun with the numbers. :) Z

Good evening zelio. That's the same numbers that I come up with too.

Like that we are seeing 1000+ jumps between reports now for the past 2 weeks, but a little disappointed that the daily average is down over last week. What say you??
