Hello Hive Community.

Hope that you are all having an awesome day! If you have been following my posts, you would have seen some posts about the Space Colonization game on Hive - Exode (created by developer @Elindos)

For those who do not know what Exode is:

EXODE is a new space colonization game powered by the HIVE blockchain.

Here are a few posts you can go through to get a high level understanding of the game:

This is the link to the Discord channel: https://discord.gg/GZcYNXz . You can ask questions directly to the creator of the game @elindos.

Recent Announcement

So the presale of Alpha packs, also known as the "Glorious 8" will be ending soon. It was initially planned to burn all the remaining unsold packs by the end of May 2020 . However, @Elindos has decided to let the community vote on two options:

Option (A):
The Glorious 8 assets (all 3 contracts, all 3 escorts/launch bonuses, all 2 special crew), will all be burned at the end of the month, more accurately: 48 hours after the booster pack opening event.

Option (B):
Price increase occurs 48 hours after booster pack opening. The Glorious 8 will be burned only 2 weeks after that final price increase, giving a few more weeks for players.

There vote poll is occurring in the Discord Channel (https://discord.gg/u3etC5) at the moment, but ending very soon, any minute now. At the time of this post, the vote count are as follows:
Option A: 14
Option B: 20

It seems that Option B is leading, so there may be a slight extension on the presale. However, we never know until the vote period ends.

This is from @elindos:

And please remember booster opening is not affected by the poll.
Option A and Option B do not change booster opening date.
They only determine if we burn the contracts end of May (option A), or about mid-june (option B)
