Hey guys. To be totally transparent, the deadline of having everything sent by the end of August has been missed. HOWEVER, cards are finally packed or in the process of being packed, and are being dropped off to be shipped from California in the coming days.
- 9/2 May 2023 cards were shipped out - on the way!
- 9/5 June 2023 cards are shipping
- 9/7 July 2023 cards are shipping
- 9/22 April 2023 & August 2023 cards are shipping
- 9/29 September 2023 cards are shipping, January-March 2023 resends are shipping
- 9/30 August 2022 & September 2022 cards
As some people may know already, October 2022 through March 2023 cards had been sent from Arizona, and unfortunately across 3 different post offices these cards were either significantly delayed in their delivery or never arrived at all. We have adjusted all cards to be packaged and sent out from California again, which should rectify this problem. All old cards prior to October 2022 were sent from CA and we never experienced any issues with delivery, so we're hoping this change solves the problem.
Since January , February, and March were sent months ago and still have not arrived, we will now be repacking and resending all three of these months.
I know this is probably incredibly frustrating, and I promise it's frustrating for us as well watching 1000s of dollars be pissed away into the ether because of some AZ post offices we used. We are going to make sure you still get these. We hired an additional two staff to help deal with this in early August to make sure this is all held to.
REFUNDS
Given the missed deadline, as mentioned in the previous post, anyone who wishes to receive a refund is entitled to it - and you will still receive your cards that are owed. Please message our Patreon and provide your PayPal email (or Zelle if PayPal is not available) for your refund.
If you are struggling to reach the Patreon (no reply within 24hrs) message me on Discord directly - aidencalvin
As always we appreciate your patience, it means a lot. Don't be afraid to reach out about the refund, you guys have been gracious enough for sure. - Aiden

2023-09-11 20:42:35 +0000 UTCYou'll receive yours in a relatively timely manner because this effort to catch everything up is also to get current month cards back on time (if you subbed just last week your first card will arrive end of next month, unless you're international) - Aiden

2023-09-11 11:34:23 +0000 UTCYou'll receive them eventually, it just might take a bit to catch up, although I've gotten some in the mail this last week so looking good so far!

2023-09-11 05:39:00 +0000 UTCI just became a patron last week, just out of curiosity what’s the likelihood of receiving a postcard? Is mine pushed further back to accommodate those who have been waiting months? Just thought id check and see

2023-09-07 12:30:59 +0000 UTCI'd love to see a way to still get an auto from one of the boys on at least one of the postcards each year. Obviously, that is a huge undertaking, and I've read why that had to be stopped, but this tier was valuable to me when I first subscribed because the personalization from the guys felt like more than just a piece of mail.

2023-09-05 20:22:45 +0000 UTCRespectfully, the cards mentioned in this post have already started arriving. Obviously there have been an incredible amount of set backs but with the new staff assisting this is going smoothly now, there's no point in axing the entire program just because of mismanagement that has been remedied, especially given we're offering refunds to anyone who wants them - Aiden

2023-09-05 20:00:17 +0000 UTCat this point they should probably just, stop doing the postcards. it really just doesn't seem worth it

2023-09-05 01:13:22 +0000 UTCIt’s good to know you’re working on it, and it’s no big deal because I signed up for this tier mostly for merch discount and presale, and the postcards weee a cool bonus, they take as long as they take

2023-09-04 21:06:19 +0000 UTCSomeone needs to look into whether Riot Games is affiliated with any post offices in Arizona. The cabal is everywhere.
Joshua Boyd
2023-09-04 19:29:28 +0000 UTCHave we considered doing these cards virtually, perhaps with a non-fungible token? I’ve heard only good things from that!
