A quiet update!

Not much is happening this week.  If you don't like reading, you're pretty much done with this update now.

For those of you who enjoy the small details, however, here we go!

We finally got the last bits of our product liability insurance fully squared away.  If you've ever seen those warnings on items like, "Do not use hair dryer while in bathtub" or "do not use face to stop chainsaw," that's the kind of gross misuse of products that product liability insurance covers us against. 

On a related note, please do not use our mats as shiruken.  That's not what they are for.

We are still waiting for the factory's purchasing department, accounting department, and everyone else to get their proverbial ducks in a row so we can move forward.

Someone did ask this us a few days ago, "Why do so many places have trouble with magnets the first few times around?"  Well...it's because neodymium magnets (like the ones we are using) are significantly more expensive as their magnetic strength increases.  So it can be a huge cost-saving corner to cut, on the end of the manufacturer.

Also, our update for next week may be on Tuesday, rather than Monday, although we can't say for sure right now.  But regardless of which day it is, we will certainly have footage of me (Jerry) holding the smaller tiles that can be used for other board games.  So that's something to look forward to!

The video below says all this, and apologizes for the fact that we are between cameras for the moment at the start.
