Thanks, I guess I never had a close look at Chalice.
Any estimates on this?

It took 4 working days from USA to Denmark, this last week, when I did a trade.
Might just have to play on it, for next years BoM.
@Zilla : Update? Im so fucking impatient!
Teal isn't gay enough! I require hot pink name color for my hard earned moneys!!!!!
...but seriously... source playmats... :-)
Was a good read, and feel good story knowing that this site is 100% private and community driven.
More than that, it makes me feel like participating more on this site. Time to update my paypal.
Love the Mat, great work! take my money!
Shipped some $ as this is my daily dose of reading.
Any updates on the mats?
Still waiting for the mats to arrive. Last I heard from the printer they were supposed to ship on the 23rd. With any luck they'll be arriving any day now. Also ordered 100 mailing boxes from USPS, so we need to wait for those to arrive as well, but hopefully they'll all get here around the same time. Barring any unseen clusterfuckery, we should still be on track to get people their mats before the GP. I assure you that you guys will know the moment the mats arrive. =)
Did you make a decision on price? I'd like to do whatever possible to be close to the top of the list. Sexual favors included.
As much as I'd love to take bribes, we're going to keep it on the up-and-up, so it will be first come, first served. The price will be very reasonable. The primary goal here is to give the community something they really want, not to reap a giant profit.
Here's how things are going to work:
As soon as the mats arrive and I'm sure that I'm happy with their quality, I will make a new closed, stickied thread announcing their arrival. At that time, anyone that wants one (or more) can PM me, and I will reply with exact instructions on what information I need from you, (address, number of mats desired, etc.), how much they cost, and how to make a payment.
We have roughly 25 mats (out of the initial 100) reserved for people going to the GP. The remaining mats will go to the first people that ask for them, with priority given to Site Contributors. That's the closest thing you can get to a bribe here, but it's largely symbolic; a donation of any amount, even a dollar, is enough to get you added to that group. We just want to show our thanks to the members who went above and beyond and made a gesture of support by donating to keep the site running and ad-free.
Proceeds from the initial print run will go towards a consecutive run, so if you don't manage to get in on the first run, don't worry, we'll do our best to make sure that everyone that wants one will get one.
If you have any specific questions about this stuff, you can PM me about it and I'll do my best to answer.
Also, while I was typing this, I got an email from the printer saying that the order is taking longer than expected and that it hasn't been shipped yet. So... fuck, I guess. I'll still do whatever I can to make sure we get them to people in time for the GP, but this may be cutting it kinda close. :(
I'll keep you posted.
Any update from the printer?
Yes, and it sucks. They've had a materials shortage, and our order won't ship until the 7th. Nice fucking 35 day turnaround, guys! Anyway, it is what it is.
I've sent a PM to everyone who's said they were going to GP: DC and wanted a playmat. There's a fairly good likelihood that I won't be able to get playmats to you guys in time for the GP, but I'm damn well going to try. There are instructions in the PM for what you need to do. If you're going to the GP and you didn't get a message from me, send me a PM about it.
For everyone else, I'll let you know what to do as soon as the mats arrive.
Hellspawn, we should still be on track to get you and Einherjer your mats in time for GP: Vienna.
Thanks for dealing with all the headache of printing Zilla! Printers make my life hell half the time.
Thanks for the update! :)
The mats look incredible. I'm so excited.
Alright, since the printer is the uncooperative one in that event, we can't really do anything.
Unless....
Hand delivering the aforementionned mats?
Is there anybody from your overall surronding heading to DC Zilla?
Do we have a price for the mats?
