Happy Wednesday Slashers!
First off, thank you so much for supporting Hack/Slash and making another beautiful hardcover omnibus possible. We cannot thank you all enough!
We are happy to confirm that bookplates have been signed and remarqued, rewards have begun shipping, digital rewards have been sent out via BackerKit, and the shirt order has been placed!
Some of you may have already received shipping email notifications from BackerKit that your reward has been picked up and scanned by the post office. Our in-house team is working as fast as they can with the assistance of our four-legged furry (not so-great) interns.
Since we are doing fulfillment in-house, we are moving as quickly as we can to ship all rewards out. We’re hoping that our small team can get everything out before the end of March. As our team gets closer to wrapping up shipping, we will announce a final lock down date for any backers that have not completed their BackerKit surveys.
Again, thank you for kicking so much ass and supporting Hack/Slash on Kickstarter. It means the world to everyone at Hack/Slash, Inc. and we cannot wait for all these rewards to be delivered to your doorstep.

Hello, Slashers!
The weekend BackerKit Smoke Test was successful and we are ready to open surveys to everyone. Some of you may have already completed your survey by the time you have opened this update. For those who haven’t, you can access your survey here: https://hack-slash-vol-4.backerkit.com/
Thank you so much to everyone who was randomly selected to participate in the Smoke Test. We really appreciate the extra set of eyes. And, again, we cannot thank all of you enough for supporting Hack/Slash Vol.4 on Kickstarter. Tim Seeley, himself, and the rest of the Hack/Slash, Inc. staff have never ending love for all of y’all.
Quick Action Shipping
We are aiming to open BackerKit surveys to everyone on Monday and want to start shipping as soon as possible. With that said, the sooner you complete your survey, the sooner we can ship your reward. We want this to be one of the quickest fulfilled Kickstarters ever! Fulfillment will be done in waves and the timeline from survey completion to shipping will look like this.
-
Wednesdays: Each week on Wednesday we will be locking down surveys that have been completed by 12 PM CST.
-
Fridays: The cards associated with those surveys will be charged for shipping every Friday.
-
The Following Mondays: BackerKit that were charged for shipping the previous Friday will be packed and shipped as long as all rewards are in-house. Rewards that only include the omnibus and bookplate will ship right away. Note: rewards that include items like the new Vol. 4 t-shirt will take a little more time to ship since we need to get a final count on the sizes that need to be ordered.
Reward Shipping Wave 1:
Any backer that completes their survey and pays for shipping on BackerKit by Friday, March 1st will be in the first wave of shipments. The first wave of rewards are expected to start shipping on Monday, March 4th.
The second wave will consist of backers that complete their survey and pay for shipping on BackerKit by Friday, March 8th. Those rewards will ship Monday. Each wave is collected Wednesday and confirmed on Fridays.
For those who were not expecting for fulfillment to happen so soon, no worries. If you’re not ready to receive your rewards right away, we’ll have a deadline in the next few months for when all surveys need to be done.
BackerKit Pre-Orders
For anyone who missed the Kickstarter, the BackerKit Pre-Order Shop for Hack/Slash Vol. 4 is your last chance to pledge for all of the awesome rewards offered in this campaign. Not every copy of the Kickstarter Edition of the Hack/Slash Vol. Deluxe Omnibus Hardcover was reserved when the campaign was live so a very limited amount is still available in the Pre-Order Shop. Click here to get your last minute pledge in now: https://hack-slash-vol-4.backerkit.com/hosted_preorders
Thank you so much for all your support and another amazing Hack/Slash campaign on Kickstarter. We are so excited to get this beautiful book delivered to you.
Best,
Hack/Slash, Inc.

First of all, Tim Seeley and everyone at Hack/Slash, Inc. want to thank you all for your support for Hack/Slash Vol. 4. We are all so grateful for your love of Hack/Slash and so happy to bring you another amazing hardcover!
BackerKit Smoke Test
BackerKit has given us the approval to start our Smoke Test for Hack/Slash Vol. 4 surveys. The Smoke Test is a super helpful feature that helps us and the team at BackerKit sniff out any possible hiccups with surveys that we may have missed. The Smoke Test goes out to 5% of Kickstarter backers and these backers will have early access to surveys.
It will run from today to Sunday evening. If you are part of the 5% randomly chosen and if you spot any errors in your survey, please shoot us a DM and we will make sure it is fixed before BackerKit is open to all backers. We’re hoping everything is all good and that we can open surveys to everyone on Monday.

If all goes as planned with the Smoke Test and we are able to open BackerKit surveys to everyone starting 2/19, the first wave of fulfillment will begin on 2/26.
Again, we cannot thank you all enough for supporting another Hack/Slash Kickstarter and being a part of this clean-cut and quickly shipped project.
