because Chris is also evading answering and failing to respond to the *CEO*
of Crowdsupply, Joshua Lifton.

the method that is of last resort is now for the *backers* - all of them - to
publicly embarrass and shame Chris in providing a direct answer to a
direct question:

    "where are the 93 Cards sent to you in March 2021"

basically, Chris is only going to respond now if there is a direct threat to his
business revenue, and if it is PUBLICLY demonstrated - through public
pressure - that he is failing to respond, then his business revenue will be
adversely affected, and consequently the fear of that loss will be what
finally motivates him to respond, over-riding whatever fear and concern
is currently *de*-motivating him and causing him to be evasive.

as that was the strategy of last resort, you can understand why i did not
wish to pursue it, and it is only when you wrote (publicly) with mistakes
that needed correcting that i could even raise the topic.

everything up to now has been entirely private - there has LITERALLY
been one email every 2-3 weeks from a different backer, each time, and
i have - PRIVATELY - asked them to contact Chris and ask where the
Cards are.

in addition both Joshua, Kelly, and myself, *and even Mike* from the
China Factory, have *ALL* written to him or telephoned him, and not
received one single response.

this is not something that Crowdsupply can fix.

this is not something that Mouser can fix.

this is something that can only be fixed through 2,500 Backers
getting on Chris of Thinkpenguin's case and overwhelming him
until he responds truthfully where the hell those Cards are.
