As said - late pledge is just a chance to buy things after the campaign has closed for exactly that reason, people moaned so much that they 'missed their chance' - so it is a second chance feature. We I used if for Angel Eyes I think it generated exactly ZERO extra pledges
I'm guessing the "late pledge" thing is just for projects that do get the backing level to green light, but, they can leave the stretch goals open until it's time to start production ?
Anyways......... glad this flew through the backing process and I'm hoping it gets the slide case stretch goal as it's very close and it looks really nice
