Kickstarter status

I have backed a total of 76 Kickstarter projects since January 2012. (19 per year. Yes, that may be a bit excessive.)

  • 1 is ongoing
  • 44 have delivered my reward
  • 10 are underdue
  • 16 are overdue
  • 1 was cancelled but restarted (was then successful and is included in the underdue count above)
  • 1 was unsuccessful but tried again (was then successful and is included in the delivered count above)
  • 1 was unsuccessful but the product is now available anyway (and I have one)
  • 2 were unsuccessful

Among the overdue ones are some that have delivered some (but not all) of the reward. There are many that do appear to be making progress. There are only a few that I have completely given up hope for.

Not counting the ongoing, underdue, cancelled, and unsuccessful: That’s 44 delivered out of 60 (73%).

Let’s break down the overdues...

  • 1 month
  • 1 month
  • 3 months
  • 4 months
  • 4 months
  • 4 months
  • 5 months
  • 6 months
  • 1 year
  • 1 year & 8 months
  • 2 years
  • 2 years & 2 months
  • 2 years & 2 months
  • 2 years & 10 months
  • 3 years
  • 3 years & 4 months

I haven’t kept track of when the ones that delivered did, so I’m not sure how late to write them off. (I mentally write them all off as soon as I pledge anyway.) Of the 2 year or more ones, there’s a couple that show good signs of life and which I expect to—eventually—deliver.
