This is a vanity bump, but not in this particular post.
On Jan. 24th Alexz launched a
Kickstarter campaign in hopes of touring the US. She had a $30,000 goal which she set to the max allowed time of 60 days. She was clearly being conservative and did not know what to expect.
As if I don't plug my own site enough in this thread :p She REACHED that goal, to my own time, of 15 hours and 10 minutes on her launch day:

She figured out she could tour outside the US if she reached $50,000. Since her Kickstarter was launched at 6:09am, this time still lands within her Day 3. She achieved that. Here is that post:

I really am proud ot be a fan of hers and have been able to speak with her on numerous ocassions, including an interview with her on Superbowl Sunday. She is worth supporting.
$50,000 raised in less than 3 days. Incredible.
I won't overplan my summer at this board with games and tourneys, I'll be on the road seeing her live
EDIT: I forgot the most obvious link. This is her Kickstarter page, currently in progress:
