Fulfillment Updates! CANADA and AUSTRALIA Delivering NOW! 🦘🍁
over 2 years ago – Tue, Nov 09, 2021 at 08:00:57 PM

Hello all!

We have received a couple of updates from FunAgain that we wanted to share with everyone!

Canada and Australia

Funagain has told us that most Canadian and Australian backers' orders have been delivered! (check your tracking number if you haven't received yours yet!) If you do not receive your order or need another copy of your tracking number, please reach out to us so we can get that rectified. We hope you all have already begun suing your friends, banging the gavel, and receiving alimony payments! 

US and Mexico

Funagain has told us that shipments will begin going out on November 22nd. We know a lot of you will be gathering over a turkey and some mashed potatoes that week, and we hope that you have a great opportunity to gather friends and family around the table for some courtroom shenanigans!

Everyone Else

We are expecting our freight to arrive to the EU depot on November 21st, and then arrive at the distribution warehouse a few days after that. We will post another update that will likely have an estimated date for your shipments to begin!

How you can help us!

We would love to see the game on Instagram and Twitter! If you feel inclined to post photos of your copy of All Rise on social media,  use #allrisegame on Instagram or Twitter to tag your photos. You can also tag us @roughdraftgames in any of your posts! And if you want to review the game, you can do so by heading over to our listing at BoardGameGeek, to share your thoughts!

Thanks again to FunAgain, Panda, and all our backers for making this possible!

FULFILLMENT BEGINS!

Wonderful News Backers!

We just received news from our partners at Funagain Logistics that our pallets have arrived at their North American and Australian facilities and are ready to begin fulfillment!

This means addresses will be locked by midnight tonight, so don't move anywhere in the next week or so! (We're looking at you Camden 😆). Additionally, Funagain Logistics will be sending out tracking numbers to the emails you provided to us, so be on the lookout for those as well!

For our UK and European backers, we know that your games are currently on their container ship making their way to our partnered distribution center in France. It will be a little longer still,  but if you're itching for daily updates, you can track the movements of the ship with this link: https://www.vesselfinder.com/vessels/JAZAN-IMO-9349540-MMSI-636017673

Lastly, we'd love to share in your experience of finally getting the game! If you feel inclined to post photos of your copy of All Rise on social media,  use #allrisegame on Instagram or Twitter to tag your photos. You can also tag us @roughdraftgames in any of your posts! And if you want to review the game, you can do so by heading over to our listing at BoardGameGeek, to share your thoughts!

(Thanks to Laki, who tweeted out his game art when it arrived!)

Finally, we'd like to say thank you to everyone once again for supporting us through this journey. It's been a trip making this game happen in the middle of a worldwide shipping crisis, but we're honored and excited to have found some good folks that were willing to come along for the ride.

This won't be our final update, as we still have much to do! But this is certainly the milestone we've all been waiting for.

Talk to you soon!

Tom, Jeff, and Gare

Original Artwork is SHIPPING! Be On The Lookout! 👀
over 2 years ago – Wed, Sep 01, 2021 at 07:10:02 PM

Hello backers!

We've got some exciting news for everyone who ordered the original artwork for the game! Your drawings are packed up and ready to ship! We've (Thomas) has been hard at work getting the art ready for shipping, and now it's time to send it to your door!

The artwork has been sandwiched and taped between styrofoam boards in order to assure safe travels.  It will require a sharp fingernail in order to unfasten it safely, but we trust that you guys know what you're doing.

We will be messaging individual backers through Kickstarter and/or your personal email to send you the tracking information for your specific package, so keep on the lookout for some correspondence from us! If you have any questions feel free to comment below or message us!

If you feel like sharing your drawing with the world when it arrives, feel free to tag us on Instagram, Twitter, or Facebook.

Lastly, we wanted to give a few quick updates on shipping progress for the games:

• Our games have officially arrived in Australia and will be arriving at FunAgain Facilities shortly!
• Our ocean freight ship arrived at Savannah, GA, and is now on its way to NYC where it will be unloading our pallets of games for North American and South American backers.
• We're still patiently waiting on updates for our European backers.

We can't wait for these suckers to arrive! It's all so close! Hopefully, you'll enjoy the art in the meantime!

Best,

-- RDG 

Signings Completed! First Backer Receives their game!
over 2 years ago – Tue, Aug 24, 2021 at 04:07:17 AM

Hello again, backers!

We’re getting ever closer to those estimated dates of arrival, and let me tell ya, we’re just as excited as you all are!

But while our freight ships might still be treading water, we’ve actually hit an impressive landmark… We air-freighted 10 games straight to our office door (Garrett’s door) and made it a point to gather last week to sign the copies of the game that will be going out to our Supreme Court Level Backers.

Backer #1 just happened to be on hand to collect his copy of the game as soon as it was hot off the signing press… What a handsome fellow!

Rest assured, everyone will have their chance to strike a beautiful pose with their board game (and art if you ordered it) very soon!

Keep hanging in there! We’re almost home-free!

Shipping UPDATE! Games on route to North American, South American, and Australian fulfillment centers!
almost 3 years ago – Tue, Jul 27, 2021 at 06:15:20 PM

Anchors away, backers! We have wonderful news!

We just received word last night that the shipment of All Rise games for our North American and South American backers has officially boarded a freight ship and is heading off to sea! Say hello to the EVER FRANK.

This ship is expected to reach New York by the end of August. For those who like day by day updates, you can even track the ships current location via this website:

https://www.vesselfinder.com/vessels/EVER-FRANK-IMO-9850587-MMSI-477665400

Additionally, we’ve been given estimates by our distributors at FunAgain games that copies of All Rise should be in their American facilities by late September, and shortly after that, they will be sent to your patiently awaiting backer hands!

We’ve also received word that a separate vessel carrying games to our Australian backers is supposed to be arriving as early as August 6th. We don’t know how long customs could take to process the games and for them to make their way to FunAgain’s facilities, but we’re very excited about this news as well!

So to recap:

North and South American Backers

• Games arrive in port in Late August
• Games arrive at Fun Again facilities in late September
• Games arrive to YOU soon after…

Australian Backers

• Games arrive in port approximately August 6th
• Games arrive at Fun Again facilities soon after (no firm estimate yet)
• Games arrive to YOU soon after that…

Unfortunately for our other international friends, we have not yet heard updates or estimates for our other regional shipping dates. We will update you all as soon as we have the relevant information.

Thank you all for your patience!
