So Totor, can you verify if KJW actually sat down and signed all of these or if it is a stamp?

A bit disappointed that the tampons are actually made on top of the sticker, which means that after one single stroke with my finger, it fades away. The opposite would have been more logic.

No tampons in my mailbox yet :(

Although I received my tampons a few days ago, I haven't really played with them much yet so didn't spot any problems with them. I might just leave them alone now if this is the case! O:-)

So Totor, can you verify if KJW actually sat down and signed all of these or if it is a stamp?

The signature looks genuine, but can't verify if KJW was sitting when it was signed. The others marks on the score track are just stickers. But the back of the score track is blank/ plain white.

KJW signed the tiles and the score board by himself. There is no stamp.

Thanks Dan and Kettlefish, merit to both.   That is what I was hoping.  I may frame it and put it in my office.

Sorry it took me some time to answer

Yes the signing is very nice and I can't imagine somebody else did it :)

Just the 2 stamps fade away (oups :D, I work in a printing company and the word Tampon sticks in my head)

I was starting to get a little worried, but sure enough, The River II arrived in my mailbox today, along with a very familiar perpetually-caffeine-consuming meeple for whom I now want to think up a special rule so he can see some playtime.

A huge thanks to Dan for his generosity in the spare bits giveaway, and for shipping this around the world for me!

My mailman dropped by with "The Plague" from Dan today! Sorry for the poor quality picture, it was taken from a flip-phone. Thanks Dan!
I don´t trust you with putting back my tiles. You might put them back upside down...

Yimhj was nice enough to send me this all the way from France!  Christmas came early.  I can't wait to try this expansion.

Thank you!

I'm glad you received it soon (a week from France to USA). It was the first time I posted to the States.

I wasn't expecting it for another week.  It seems to take 2 weeks to get stuff to and from Germany.  I incorrectly assumed France would be the same. 

Thanks again!

Something from Germany addressed to my wife.  A holiday surprise for me?  I can't open it until Xmas, but I imagine some watchtowers and something signed by KJW is inside.

Santa Postman brought me the first game I buy outside Cundco and Kickstarter in the last couple of years (although it was on KS).

Awesome! Chooselife and I both pledged, so we should get it next month when the European shipment goes out.

Can your postman dig a hole through the Earth to make Cundco shipping cheaper?

Whilst I don't blame the postman, I object to his employers' business practices
