The other is a fair reason, real question is around combined shipping continuing to get “bonuses” or not, though I will leave unasked apparently.

I'm a.big supporter of increasing volunteer stipends. Happy to pay the $6!

Combined shipping bonuses are still the same as 2022.

Really appreciate you sharing these updates.

So for V12
Treasure = 2023
Starter Packs = 2023 (with same shipping bonus)

For V9b
Treasure = 2023
Starter Packs = ???

Will starter packs included with V9b still be 2022 starter packs, or will they also transition to 2023? Thank you.

Ultimately the famous, or infamous, lyrics come to me with the sound of an air horn blast and the line “Who wants to party, who wants, who wants to party?” The rest of that song eludes me, though I am sure I will continue to party for luting and looting purposes! Thank you for the info Jeff!

Being somewhat new...what are combined shipping bonuses?

I assume this hasn't changed, but thus far, if you play in more than 1 run during the event, you get a bonus starter pack for every run after the 1st one. Example: If you play in 4 runs, you get your treasure tokens plus 7 starter packs (1 for the first run and a bonus starter pack for every run after the 1st).

Because shipping is included in the cost of a run, TD felt it was fair that if you paid for more than 1 run, you were entitled to a bonus as a result of combined shipping.

Thanks!

Combined shipping for groups is also another way to take advantage of this.

Let's say you've bought out a run of 10 tickets. Instead of having TD ship the treasure it each ticket holder, you can instead opt to have all the tickets with one person, and have the shipping combined to that one person. In this scenario, your box from TD comes with 9 extra boosters - 1 per ticket past the first. When the box arrives, the person that received the package can distribute the treasure to the rest of the group.
