Bicycle "Venexiana" deck

[Lotrek]

Thank you Don!

Yes, of course I'll triple check everything before (and if I make it) to go to press. I'm still not 100% positive about the back, so I don't bother with these details yet. I'll be updating the project often so all final work will be public on www.JumpStartCity.com

[Lotrek]

Your cards remind me of Emile Becat 1950.  Have you ever thought of maybe changing the reversible sides to make a simple story like this guy did?

oh sorry, WARNING nudity  or I think it's art....

Hi Sprouts, thank you.
Very interesting deck and idea. I've thought about playing this way on the courts, but not for this deck.

Hello cardists,

"Venexiana" is on air:

https://jumpstartcity.com/events/bicycle-venexiana.

This site functions in a different way than KS, so It's worth taking a look at this video
https://jumpstartcity.com/aboutcity.php.

At this point I need the help of all of you who like this deck. You can subscribe and vote for my project to help it move to the "promotion" stage,
where I'll be having regular updates with new pictures of the cards, new rewards etc.
Even if you don't intend to back this project you can just vote for it, it's free

I hope to see you there.

Thanks for your support.

I like this deck but I'm unsure  why you didn't go with KS.  Needing 500 votes to promote this on JSC seems unrealistic.  As you can see, no one has made it to the next level and no one is even close.  I had 5 people sign up to go on and vote but they weren't given a password and couldn't access the site without it.  I gave you my vote.

[Soliloquy]

KS isn't available in his country.  And it's only Jump Start City's first day of operation; they might take some time to attract an audience.

Lotrek - please note that I combined the two topics on this deck.  We try to keep it all under one roof, so to speak, so it's easier to find this information later without having to look over several topics.

Good luck with your launch!

[Lotrek]

Thanks Don, I understand.

Thanks MMG,

I understand that this "Elevator pitch" stage seems weird. Neither I am crazy about it. On the other hand they believe that this way they'll keep crappy projects away. I don't know...
It seems the site had a problem, that's why your friends couldn't login. I too couldn't  vote. Now it's okay, tell them!

I don't think 500 points are unrealistic. You have 3 weeks time to collect those points and even if you collect them in two days you won't be able to move to the next stage before the end of the week.
My project has already 95 points  after one day, so I hope that I'll make it.

Thanks,
L.

I've messaged my friends to try to log back on and check out your deck.  I understand the whole 500 vote thing, but it seems that if you can get 500 people  to like  your deck, you can probably sell these without a crowd funding project.  I'm hope yours makes it big on JSC and I'd love to see how the new site will compete with KS and Indiegogo.  If for some reason it doesn't make it to the next phase have you considered working with a US based group to manage a KS promotion?

[Lotrek]

Thank you for your support!,

I've considered many options. I don't know what shall I do. I hope it won't fail, but if it does I'll certainly have to search for alternatives. I could have some person to launch the project on my behalf but I should totally trust them. I don't know if there is another way...

[Lotrek]

KS isn't available in his country.

Exactly!  And this makes me mad sometimes!!!

I think the deck looks fantastic...but how do you pronounce it? Ven-ex-ee-ana?

[Lotrek]

I think the deck looks fantastic...but how do you pronounce it? Ven-ex-ee-ana?

"Venexiana" is  how "Veneziana" is written in the Veneto dialect. 

[Don Boyer]

I think the deck looks fantastic...but how do you pronounce it? Ven-ex-ee-ana?

"Venexiana" is  how "Veneziana" is written in the Veneto dialect. 

So, then it rhymes with "Louisiana"?

Exactly. As well as with "Texarkana"

Oh, so like Roseanne Roseannadanna who lived in Louisiana, married a man from Texarkana and purchased a deck called Venexiana.

I'll remember it now.

[Lotrek]

Ok, that's it! This is the deck's anthem!

[Rob Wright]

Ok signed back into JSC- seems to be working now.  gave 5 votes to other projects so I could give a 2 point vote for Venexiana. Good luck.

[Lotrek]

Thanks Rob! Yes now it's working. They fixed it.

Great avatar!!!

[Rob Wright]

Great avatar!!!

Yea, that's my baby girl Josie. She had to have surgery on her ear. Can't think what they call it, but she had blood pockets on her ear. They drain it and then sew over the ear like a quilt, to keep it from happening again.

[Lotrek]

My love to her! I adore dogs.

"Venexiana" is  how "Veneziana" is written in the Veneto dialect. 

Yes, I read that on the first page. I just wasn't sure whether or not the pronunciation changed along with it.

[Lotrek]

No it's pronounced  the same.

OK, now you're dating yourself - do you realize how few people here on this board were even ALIVE when she was on the air?  Never mind being old enough at the time to stay up late enough to watch her...

Okay, so I remember when SNL first came on the air...but I wasn't allowed to stay up and watch it.  I did however deploy stealth recon missions to the living room to get sneak peeks at late night tv.  I miss Gilda Radner, she's a classic.
