I figured I'd go ahead and start this thread as the expected ship date for mine was Friday, 2/17 (updated after the delay for the third mailing). Has anyone seen any tracking info pop up yet?

Isn't the fourth mailing just the black envelope reveal?

It can't be. We don't have the Victory for Pirates or Law and Order ending yet. Plus the shirt and challenge coin are to be included with the reveal.

Maybe this is delayed because there is more stuff being produced for the epilogue...

I did get a confirmation that the Reveal will contain the selective ending.

It's Friday, and I've been obsessively refreshing my orders page, but no tracking number yet...anyone else?

Zip.
And ... I am not able to really do puzzles (Aspie), but with Todd's help I was able to muddle my way through The Weeping Book, which I really enjoyed.
Re The Treasure of John Augur, people here seemed very busy trying to solve puzzles regarding the maps and locations, but no one seems to have come up with any definitive conclusions other than you would get by reading the materials and viewing the final artifact. Is that true or untrue? Is there some coded information that reveals things which are necessary to the enjoyment of the effect?

As far as puzzles go, it is possible to determine the location of the island from the materials enclosed in the first and second mailings. As for whether that's substantially necessary to enjoy the experience, YMMV.

This is the first time that I very actively followed those rabbit hole clues, and I found the experience immensely exciting and enjoyable.

Todd, that's awesome that you got a confirmation about the reveal mailing containing the epilogue! I'm very glad to be proven wrong about this (though it remains to be seen what the opinion here is on how narratively satisfying the epilogue is), and from now on I won't be so quick to just assume that I know what's in the reveal mailings.
I would also like to note a minor irony. Despite my initial misgivings about the artifact being a bit lackluster (which I have turned sharply away from and now think it's one of the best artifacts they've made), thanks to my e-mail to the MPC about the reveal mailing where I also acknowledged how much I enjoyed the artifact, they decided to quote me and my love for the artifact on the official John Augur page!

We're all victims of having our hearts set on a particular thing, and being disappointed in seeing something else. I commend the open mind which allows one to change his opinion.
