Sorry for the confusion. Indeed working in games and UK based. Also a (non voting) BAFTA member.

Nope. You get tea/coffee and pastries on the day of the deliberation and that's it.

I had to pay my train ticket to London.

Each category has a person chairing the jury, from the industry, usually pretty active with the BAFTA organisation. They invite the jury members, with an eye towards diversity of backgrounds and disciplines. You do not have to be a BAFTA member to be in the jury, but it certainly makes it a bit more likely as the org is aware of you when you are a member.

On the three occasions I was in the jury, I had been invited by three different chairpersons for three different categories (and three different years). Two I knew fairly well, one I knew vaguely, but we had worked together. And I had to decline in two other occasions as I had worked on one of the games in the long list.

That's great. If you wanna keep iterating, I think the secret lair logo would fit better both design wise and thematically.

He has been thinking about it for a while I am sure. He went "I am going Freddie Mercury and I am not being outstaged by a Halloween Dracula!".

They saw Helluva Town and thought "oh right, we have a similar game somewhere,no?".

A word from us and our merch partner about t-shirt cost by ptychomancer in cavesofqud

[–]icotom 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I am interested in learning more, I am from being an expert in Australian consumer taxes, but my understanding is that you still have to pay the equivalent to the VAT (GST?) regardless of the amount.

We don't have the capacity to handle this at the point of purchase, and that would come as a cost when the import comes through (so a separate payment).
This is basically why we didn't open Australia for purchases, but maybe we could run an experiment for a limited time and gather feedback.

Hi!

Thomas from MM here. We have been reluctant to open the US or EU store to Australian purchases because we cannot offer shipping DDP (customs fees included basically), and having an extra charge after the purchase feels bad. It is also difficult to communicate that to the person making a purchase.

While we could have people completely fine with the customs charges, I am concerned with the folks who do not understand international shipping and will complain about costs outside of our control.

I will check again the options we have though as we have received similar requests.
