It's a 5th Player! And So Much More!!!!!!

Hey Divers!
You did it!! You brought us to $30 000CAD, 300% funded, 779 backers, and STILL 8 days left! Wow wow wow! I can only image where this game is going to go. Actually, I don't have to imagine it. I know where it's going and I promise that you will be pleased! Let's take a look at what has happened over the last few days.
What We've Unlocked
5th PLAYER!!! CAN I SHOUT THIS ANY LOUDER?!?!?!?
And We Have a Winner
The choice was overwhelmingly Anemone voted by backers of Wreck Raiders. It was very strongly Surf on Social Media. We're going with the most votes, so Anemone is our winner!
Our main concern was for people with colour blindness issues to be able to clearly distinguish between components. So, what we have chosen to do in this case is fix the colours slightly so that they are as far apart from one another as possible. We're dedicated to making our games as accessible as possible, and this is one of the ways we can do it.
What's Up Next
Yes! It's the Crab Score Markers. Only $2000 more to make this happen people! Let's do it!
What We're Working Toward
This is a pretty exciting point in the campaign. There has been so much engagement, and we have loved it. So here is even more for you. At $35 000 we will add two new Aquarium tiles. What is special about these tiles is that YOU are going to help us decide what is going to go in them. Over the next 24 hours or so you'll have the chance to suggest your favourite sea creatures that you'd like to see in the Aquarium tiles. At 3pm EST tomorrow (July 12) we will announce the top 5 choices and release a poll to you. Then you'll have two days to vote on what you'd like on those tiles. May the best sea creatures be chosen!
Want to see what sea creatures we already have in the game? Check out the KTBG website with a full list. You can even use them as Avatars!! Here's a taste:
Join Derek and Lizzy tonight at 8pm CTD (9pm for those of you in EST like us) on the Board Game Spotlight Facebook group for a LIVE Stream of Wreck Raiders. I can't wait to see it. These two do such an awesome job!
Contest Update
If you don't know this already, we've been running a Social Media contest (that includes email). See Update #10 for info about how to win a $50 Gift Card to Board Game Bliss, an online game retailer.
A Contest and a 5th Player

Hey Divers!
I promised I would be back tonight with a major announcement!
First of All, a Recap
.
We have Diver Meeples! Yes!
Drum Roll Please...
At $30 000CAD we will add a 5th player. You heard me right! A whole new player will be added to the game. This means that we wil add 1 player mat, 6 diver meeples, 1 die, a whole whack load of Baubles, and a bunch more treasure tiles. A-mazing!
Now, here is where you come in. Take a look at the colour options for the new, 5th player diver meeple.
.
Choose the one you think will best match with the Diver Meeples we already have.
Vote for your favourite colour by commenting in the main campaign comments.
The diver meeple colour with the most votes will be added to the game.
This is so exciting kids!
A Note On a Solo Variant
Please know that we are taking this very seriously. We are listening to what you have to say and we are working on it. It is very likely that we'll add a solo variant before the campaign concludes. We'll let you know the status of the variant as soon as we've got something.
Good luck, and may the best colour win!
Until our next Stretch Goal, go raid that wreck!

We haven't done this for a few campaigns, but I really loved it. So, I'm bringing it back. As we add another review onto our page today, we'd like to introduce you to Lance Myxter, aka Undead Viking. Lance has been working for TMG for some time. But he has been a game reviewer for a lot longer. And a fantastic one at that. He does a fantastic job introducing games to the world, and I totally trust his taste in them! Without further ado, here is his preview of Wreck Raiders (which will be up on the page today):
