Time to lock in your shipping addresses!

Backers, it's my favorite update (well other than the "games are shipping" update)!
We need you to finalize your shipping address no later than Sunday night at midnight CST!
You can do so by going to
https://my.pledgemanager.com and logging in (it will use the same e-mail address as your Kickstarter account), clicking on Dinosaur Island project and verify your shipping address. You can't change your order any longer (i.e. change what games you are getting, change the number, etc) but you can still update your address.
It's super super critical that you do so. If you haven't filled out your survey yet, the deadline for that is past, but please do so now. Hopefully we have shipped enough extra inventory to each region to cover addresses we never received, but without a shipping country we are flying really blind. The games are going to be shipping very soon and we need to get labels pre-printed to speed the process up as much as possible.
So, what does this mean about shipping time-frames?
1) We are air-freighting in 2,500 copies to Fun Again games for fulfillment in the US. This was not expected, but though pricey means games will start shipping a little earlier than anticipated (more after the jump).
2) The additional 1,300 American copies just cleared customs and should hit the Funagain warehouse a few weeks later and just in time for them to need more inventory once they clear out the air-freighted copies (more on that after the jump)
3) The boat with the EU and Canadian copies just cleared US customs and will be routed to the UK and Canada as soon as it hits our warehouse for final delivery from within Canada and the EU (so this means no taxes as we will pay VAT while importing). This likely means US backers will start getting the games a little before EU backers, but we'll get these out to non-US backers as quickly as possible, we had this all timed for everyone to get the game at once, but air freighting into the US pushed the US backer time-frame up (and not that EU backers timeframe has slowed down)
4) Australian and Asian copies are being shipped to fulfillment partners directly from our factory in the next 48 hours and should start shipping shortly.
So, exciting news all around. The early buzz on the game has been great. I know Tom Vasel of the Dice Tower has a copy of the game and there will be one at BGG Con if you are there as well.
Now, the "wait, why are you air freighting stuff, what's going on" part. We ran into a situation involving the remaining freight being delayed at the outgoing port. We have to freight containers on the water, but not all of the games were in those containers. We're still investigating what exactly happened, as during Essen we believed all of the inventory was already on the water. The end result, is we found out today that the remaining games (which are still in China) could not arrive via Ocean Freight in the US until December 15th. Since this represents 2/3rd of our US backers games and we need to get the games to you ASAP, basically means air-freighting the games in was the only option, which means US copies will likely start shipping sooner than originally planned. We want to make sure that we fulfill our commitment to get you your games as quickly as possible, and this is the best way for us to do that.
This should get everyone the game in the same timeline that we discussed in the last update, it's just going to be more of a headache logistically for us and should actually mean US backers start getting the games a little earlier than we thought.
So, for now please please please make sure you have the correct shipping address at
https://my.pledgemanager.com and very very soon you will all be creating your very own Dinosaur Parks and that is the most fun. The game is great and I can't wait for each and every one of you to get it to the table!
