If the projects funds, when will the podcast be released?
I will have to start casting a lot of roles and work with the actor’s schedules, so I can’t give a release date. But I will send monthly updates to all backers, including progress bars. And once the first edit is done, I’ll be able to share the release date!

If I chose 'The Cook' pledge level or higher, do I get to hear the show sooner than if I wait for release day?
Yes, much sooner. If you chose The Cook pledge level or higher, you’ll literally get the show the day I finish mastering. After sending that digital package out to my backers, I’ll start the process of planning and coordinating the release through REALM, which could take up to a couple of weeks.

I barely remember the first season, do I need to re-listen?
You will be able to enjoy this story as a stand-alone. I do however recommend re-listening to fully understand both plot twists at the end of the show. If you haven’t got the time or don’t feel like listening again, at least re-listening the final episode.

Do I need to hear PUZZLE BOX to understand this second season?
No, you don’t have to. Think of the first season as the sun of the DECA universe, and both puzzle box and Season 2 as planets in their own right.

If I divide the funding goal by the percentages in the budget breakdown, it seems actors get paid very little money.
The funding goal isn’t the entire budget. Throughout the years I’ve sold spin-off stories, got donations through Patreon and made a little through advertising inserts. The percentages you see in the breakdown, should be applied on the total budget.

If I chose 'The Leader' pledge level or higher, can I put the producer credit on my resume?
Yes, this is an official producer credit. You have actually invested in the creation of a show based on a pitch and a concept. So, you are a producer. If you want to use me as a reference for job applications or anything of that nature, feel free to forward my email and I will confirm you helped create this show. You’re credit will also be added to IMDB, so I encourage you to create an IMDB profile if you haven’t already.

Why isn't the podcast itself part of the Backerkit survey?
You are getting your plegde rewards and add ons right away. But with the funds raised, we’ll start production on the show. So we can’t send the episodes themselves out, until production is over.

What is BackerKit?
BackerKit is a service that crowdfunded project creators use to keep track of hundreds to tens of thousands of backers—from shipping details, pledge levels, preferences and quantities, whether they have paid or had their card declined, special notes, and everything in between!
The BackerKit software and support team is independent from the campaign’s project team—BackerKit does not handle the actual reward shipping. For more information about the preparation or delivery status of your rewards, please check the project's updates page.
How does BackerKit work?
After the campaign ends, the project creator will send you an email with a unique link to your survey. You can check out a walkthrough of the process here.
I never received my invitation. How do I complete the survey?
The most common reasons for not receiving a survey email is that you may be checking an email inbox different from the email address you used to sign up with Kickstarter, Indiegogo or Tilt Pro account, or it may be caught in your spam filter.
Confirm that the email address you are searching matches the email address tied to your Kickstarter, Indiegogo, or Tilt Pro account. If that doesn’t work, then try checking your spam, junk or promotions folders. You can also search for "backerkit” in your inbox.
To resend the survey to yourself, visit the project page and input the email address associated with your Kickstarter, Indiegogo or Tilt Pro account.
How do I update my shipping address?
BackerKit allows you to update your shipping address until the shipping addresses are locked by the project creator. To update your address, go back to your BackerKit survey by inputting your email here.
When will my order be shipped, charged or locked?
That is handled directly by the project creator. BackerKit functions independently of the project itself, so we do not have control of their physical shipping timeline. If you want to check on the project’s status, we recommend reading over the project's updates page.
I completed the survey, but haven't received my rewards yet. When will they arrive?
As BackerKit does not actually handle any rewards or shipping, the best way to stay updated on the shipping timeline would be to check out the project's updates page.
