I’m confident enough that Ketofest is going to happen that I just booked our flights, car, and accommodations!

I’ll see y’all at KetoFest, pledged my Kickstarter yesterday.

BTW, for anyone who wants to contribute, but can’t come, I came last year on the generous contribution of one person, who bought a ticket so that someone who couldn’t afford it could go. That person ended up being me. So thank you, and this year I’m paying my own way, as I’m doing a bit better financially. Maybe someday I’ll be able to pay it forward. Thanks.

We tried that, had a few sets of twins though and ruined all our carefully laid plans =P

@carl could you please update a couple of times a day here, so we know how it’s going? Waiting with bated breath! (Or could it be baited? I’ll eat sardines tonight and we’ll go either way … :stuck_out_tongue_winking_eye: )

UPDATE! I just looked and they are under $300 from goal! W00T!! W00T!!

There is one jelly fat “vintage lady” in Texas who will be sucking it all up like a sponge!!! (OTOH, I might be back on the truck with my hubby by then, so I might NOT be in Texas.)

We did it!

Ok, I’m super excited (nearing pants-peeling territory), but I can’t figure out something.

I know it says for multiple tickets do the math (that was the easy part…me and hubby) but I couldn’t figure out where to do the “tell us how to allocate it”. I already (hours ago) pledged for our 1-day passes, just trying to make sure I don’t screw anything up.

#71

I have a feeling this happens when you come to pay up at the end. @carl?

As long as you have pledged the correct amount, you will be able to alter later anyway I am sure.

(Lauren) #72

I looked forever. Maybe b/c I did it from my phone? As long as we get in, I’ll live

(carl) #73

Okay. :slight_smile:

So, my good friend gave me an idea that we should allow all 50ish 2 day ticket holders an opportunity to upgrade them to VIP tickets for an extra $200, and then do another 30 day Kickstarter to sell 50 VIP tickets for $500 each. With the extra money I’ll clean out and finish my enormous garage and turn it into more party space.

(Nick) #75

But what about all the snobbish original VIP ticket holders who then get annoyed that you’ve diluted their First Class Experience to hobnob with the Dudes? :wink:

(Seriously, though, sounds like a great idea - if you have pots big enough to cook for that number of people!)

#76

They got the early bird deal though :smiley:

My profession is turning spaces into party places. I turned a grease trap laneway into an executive grassed retreat recently for a one off event. If committed friends and fans want the space, I’m sure you can facilitate it. Wish I could make it to north America for this event :slight_smile: all the best

(Sybella) #78

nearly there! #exciting

(Nick) #79

There! (But don’t count any chickens until April 1: people’s credit cards bounce, they withdraw their pledges at the last minute etc. That’s why it’s important to get a buffer to be sure :slight_smile:

As of right now it has met its goal.
