Big changes and the final 48

We just wanted to give an update about the changes we've made to the project, and to clear up any questions you might have.
CHYMOUS launched as a vinyl LP-only minecrawl adventure. We realized after listening to your feedback that many of you would prefer a zine version, that was both less expensive and more universally usable. So we have added the new zine format to all existing tiers, and added a tier of its own. Something we noticed is that many of you thought the price for a 16 page adventure was a little steep. To clarify, the LP booklet will be 12"x12" pages, which means each 2 page spread translates to 6 pages in an A5 format. That's why the zine will be roughly 40 pages. The LP and zine will have differing layouts for this reason.
We obviously were not going to meet our original stretch goals, so we have cancelled them, and instead will focus on delivering the most deluxe physical copies that we can within the scope of the project. We are working now to find manufacturing partners that can deliver our expected quality, at much lower quantities than initially quoted. We are confident that we will not have to sacrifice quality in any aspect.
We also want to thank all of you who received our email asking for feedback and spent the time to give us your thoughts and opinions. Your help has been invaluable, and will be as we plan our next project.
If you would, you can all help make this project just a little more successful by taking a moment to share it with anyone you think might be interested. We are very near our goal and the final 48 hours starts tomorrow at 11 am CDT, so we would love to see a big jump in backers during that time to help us get this project into as many hands as possible.
Thanks to all of you who have backed, and we can't wait to show you what's next!
