Has everyone received their copy of "Hail to the Victors"
Hello all you MGoblogers,
I have not recieved my signed issue of "Hail to the Victors" and was curious about the status of your orders. I live in Chicago, and thought that might attribute to the delay in recieiving the magazine. I was hoping to have it in time to take it to the fan day next weekend. Any feedback you can offer would be helpful.
Thank you
Not yet. Live in Charleston, SC.
Nope but that may also be because I didn't order one.
here we go again
Suppose so

...and "Keith".
Maryland.
Roughly 2 1/2 weeks ago.
What part? Im over near DC and I haven't received mine yet.
I have not received my copy of HTTV yet either! I think it might have something to do with me not ordering one in the first place, but I choose to ignore that fact.
/s
Ill email someone if it doesn't come by the end of this month.
There's an email address you can use to inquire about the status of your order. I believe it is [email protected]
I would double check that address first, though. Seth mentioned it in the previous threads and it has been posted in front page posts as well. I think emailing UP will be more productive than surveying others.
I did email them right after that came out, but I didn't get much useful info - they basically said email us again in a week if I didn't have it. I got my signed copy in the mail last Monday (July 30th), and I live in AZ.
that I did just as you did, and they told me also to e-mail in a week if I hadn't gotten it. I waited a couple of extra days after the week passed and e-mailed them again. They kindly said they'd UPS'd me another copy and gave me a tracking #. Naturally I got the mail copy the very next day. (Yesterday.)
Great. Thank you!
Got mine a week ago. It was awesome.
I picked up one in person at the release party, and the other one with my fabulous Brian photobomb shirt came about three weeks later. I live only 20 minutes from Ann Arbor, so that might seem a bit slow, but there have been some issues which were not the fault of Seth or Brian or others from my understanding, so I won't complain. It's a growing enterprise and you learn from these experiences.
Still, it does make me wonder how the process was structured, and hopefully this is taken in the spirit of constructive criticism - there were people that live farther away than I do that received their order before I did, if I am not mistaken, and the shirt might be the deciding factor in some of that (I know that adding the shirt slowed some orders, which is totally understandable). I wonder if, in the future, UPS Ground might be an option for these. Cross country shipping is about a week max and if you can get a sizeable number of them out each day, that might smooth out the delivery rate somewhat.
Unsigned, about 2-3 weeks ago.
For those of you that havent recieved I would email the address posted above, the only way Brian/Seth can help is if you let them know.
Still don't have mine.
I've had mine for probably a month now, and still haven't really read much.
I sent a couple e-mails and finally got mine about 2 weeks ago - but it wasn't signed.
Despite the Kickstarter program working well, the delivery was kind of a cluster...
It is a great read and is getting me more pumped for the season. Go Blue!
...oh yeah - just picked up my season tickets from a friend today. 9/1/12 can't get here soon enough!
I have been reading it from page 1 and it's a great read. A lot of great info and there are a couple of interesting stories in the final pages.
Definitely a good investment.
"Sorry I folded your cover."
Cover was slightly creased. Got a note from Brian!

If you haven't gotten the one you ordered yet; I hope it arrives soon
If you haven't ordered one yet; I advise that you do. There's a lot of stuff. Don't be left out of the conversation.
I received two copies, & a t-shirt, a couple weeks ago in the Chicago area. However, I didn't ask for Brian to sign, which may have speeded things up (I can imagine writer's cramp from thousands of signatures.) From what has been said, I think there has been a significant learning curve for Brian and Seth on what it takes to make a venture like this work (from design, to design changes, to non-standard design, to printers, to capital outlay, to mailing, to hidden "gotcha" add on fees.) My guess is they will eliminate a lot of the problems in the next go-round.
Oh, and my t-shirt didn't fit. I should've expected that, but there's a reasonable solution for me: lose weight. So, wanting to wear a shirt is helping me to shed pounds. Just saying, XL and XXL mean different things to different mfgs. I have another shirt from this summer that fits like a tent. Sigh.
Two weeks ago...signed copy and photo-bomb tee.

I had never gotten the survey so I emailed UGP my address (didn't get a response), emailed Brian (got quick response) and my copy was delivered by UPS 2 hours later!
It's taking me quite a while to get through however.
After I read each page I tear it from it's binding and begin consuming it, chewing meticulously.
For some reason the special teams section I just finished was particularly delicious.

UGP email for status/shipping inquiries: [email protected]
Double secret ain'tgotnosatisfaction Brian emai: [email protected]
make sure you put HTTV in the subject.
There were multiple kickstarter update emails & I believe the all-important address survey email was #4.
Brian got back to me litereally within minutes (granted I threatened his housepets).

Got my unsigned copy a week and a half ago. I signed Denard's name myself. For other oldies out there it is jammed with very well written articles in size 6 tiny font..

I live in Michigan and still don't have my copy.

About two weeks ago, in upstate NY.
