Zilla, could you update the first post with details how to purchase a mat? I'm sure it's somewhere here within the 22 pages, but I'm not able to find it.

If a second print happens I would be interested in purchasing a playmat as well. Thanks!
There may be two people interested here in Winnipeg; I'll confirm when mine arrives and I show it to them.
Alright, here's an update for you guys: We have the remaining mats, and we got all the boxes we need from the postal service.
Instructions on how to order will be delivered by PM, and here's why: we have a limited number of mats currently available, and I only want to take money for mats we actually have available to ship. I don't want people to send money and then have to wait a month for the printers to process and send us a new order. I want people to know that if they send money for mats, that those mats will be shipped within a week at most. If the ordering instructions are public, then everyone orders at once, and some people get them right away, while others get stuck waiting, which would obviously be really disappointing.
So the way we're handling it is this: I'm sending out ordering instructions to people in batches. I have no way of knowing exactly how many mats each person will order, so I can't do huge groups at a time without fear of accidentally taking money for more mats than we have. Once I've heard back from all the people in one batch, I move on to the next batch, and so on. As stated previously, Site Contributors are getting priority on orders, but aside from that, it's first asked first served, so someone who said "I want one" a month ago is in line ahead of someone that said they wanted one yesterday.
We sent out a big batch of orders yesterday, and everyone in that order got PMs with their tracking numbers. If you haven't received a PM with ordering instructions, it doesn't mean you won't. We have (if I'm not mistaken) 30 mats left out of the first run of 100. Also, we WILL be doing a second run. I'll be putting in the order soon - I'm just trying to determine exactly how many more to order. We're already at least 50 or 60 mats requested past the initial 100.
This undertaking is a logistical challenge, and it's really important to me that everyone's expectations are met, which means no promises unless I'm 100% sure we can deliver. Thanks everyone for your patience.
I apologize is this was asked before hand, but what are the dimensions of the playmat (i.e., length and width)?
They're 14" x 24" and 1/16" thick. For the record, they look and feel bad ass. I was genuinely surprised at how nice they turned out when I first pulled them from the box. To my knowledge, everyone that's gotten one so far has been really pleased with it.Quote:

If you want one and haven't said so yet, now's a super good time to do it.
Just picked mine up from the postal office. #HYPE
Thanks Zilla
Thanks for the quick reply Zilla. Those dimensions are perfect for the tube that I bought the other day. Now I'm even more excited to get my hands on one of these bad boys.Quote:

Got mine today, looks fantastic. Now I have to stumble my way into a feature match with it :laugh:
Thanks for the great work Zilla and Myelectronicdays!
I got mine today also, thanks a bunch. They came out better than expected!
Got mine today, it looks absolutely wonderful. Hope to swoon everyone with it!
Got mine today! Gloriously epic - thanks Zilla!
Hey Zilla, when do you think ordering instructions will be sent out for the last mats in the first tranche? I'm really excited to get mine after seeing all the pictures - they look awesome!
Probably within the next week or so. I suspect you'll be in the second run. :(
On the bright side, the second run should be arriving around the 10th or so of next month, so it's only a few weeks. Sorry for the delay.
Looking forward. Sad, that the mats won't make it before christmas :\Quote:

It's not impossible... if the second order shows up by the 10th, I can try to send out some Christmas packages the next day. I don't know how long it would take to ship to Germany, but it would have 2 weeks to get there before Christmas.Quote:

I'm ecstatic. Been waiting for a Source playmat since the old one. I'll see if I can get more orders locally; have them create an account and post.
Played my first couple of matches on the mat :)

Greetings
this all brings a tear to my eye /clap
The mat is pretty awesome looking. I'm definitely interested in getting on board for the 2nd run if there is still space available.
There are still plenty available in the second run.Quote:

As you can see from Einherjer's post, we have received our mats.
Thanks to you, Myelectronicdays and Zilla (as well as his wife!)!
Just to reiterate (because this thread is super long) - I'm not sending out ordering instructions to people unless we actually have playmats immediately available to send to them. I don't want people to have to wait more than a week for us to ship their order once they've made a payment.
Everyone that says they want one here gets added to my list. As soon as I'm sure we have mats available to send when you order, you'll be PMed with instructions on how to order. We're getting the next print run sometime around December 10th, and right now we have more than enough in that run to cover everyone that's said they want one.
There are still about 10 mats left out of the first run, but I'm waiting to hear back from a few people who have been sent instructions to see if they still want to order. (Speaking of which, check your inbox Whippoorwill, Aggro_zombies and infant_no_1.)
TLDR; You will receive a PM with ordering instructions just as soon as I have mats I can put in a box and ship to you. Thanks very much for your patience.
I guess I better go ahead and throw my hat in the ring, too - send unto me a playmat! (or a pm and then a playmat)
Got mine in today and just in time for a local Legacy tournament. It looks amazing - thanks again to Zill and Myelectronicdays for all of their hard work!
After seeing them up close at DC, I really want one for myself for christmas. PM me with details for shipping and payment :smile:
Looking forward to the new batch.
