Sexmind

Hello All! This is the original sexmind team speaking. As some of you may have noticed, we have been on a long hiatus since we failed to fund our project fully on indiegogo. There are certain things that our followers should be aware of: Due to the fact that we weren´t able to reach our minimum goal on indiegogo, we were forced to halt the development of Mcalc and the sexmind website itself to avoid the bankrupcy of the company. Even when most of our developers were eager to work into this project, they still need to get paid in order to be able to work on  this, and they had already done enough pro-bono work for the release of the first versions of the app. Its the main reason why our blog and project hasn´t been updated for months (our social media manager had to quit to take care of her studies) Unfortunately, finding a financial supporter for this project was a very hard task, we had several meetings with plenty of investors and none of them felt right, whether it was because they went against our company values or simply because they didn´t understand our motives ( Most of them suggested that we should aim for a more "broader audience" which was essentially a subtle way of saying they had no interest in listening to the transgender, asexual and queer community overall and wanted to turn the Mcalc app in your typical menstruation app )  However, we do have some good news. After a long search and months of failed meetings we finally found a great investor, and even thou most of the original team is gone, the intention remains the same (even bound by contract) Starting today, this new investor will be taking over the blog and restarting the development of the app where it was left, this includes all that was promised on the indiegogo campaign and more, as well as a reboot of the entire site. All users who supported the app on its very beginning will still receive the new app for free. They have an estimated release date for October-November this year, and they will be restarting the blog activity soon once the original team does the handover of all legal documents and information. As the original team we would like to thank you for your support and insight, we hope this new team of developers can deliver a better app and keep supporting queer technology all over the web. Only a few of us will remain working with this new company and will make our best to keep the Sexmind values intact.

We have finally dispatched more than 90% of the pledges, those of you who have donated for a specific product will get your hoodies, shirts and/or mugs within the next couple of weeks ( possibly after the holidays since some shipping's are transatlantic and some had to be custom ordered in other countries to make them reach the pledger as soon as possible and not all mail works on holidays globally ) As we said, even if we didn´t raise the money we did raise enough to pay the development fees, we just wont be able to hire extra people to help us develop the pro app quickly, so we will have to wait until January for the next update  (also due to holiday season our programmers are not working full time on this project until january 1st).

Hello all! quick update: we are currently in production of our pledge rewards to thank our lovely contributors, we are almost done printing the mugs and postcards and other material, those of you who chose shirts and/or hoodies will be receiving an email shortly during this weekend asking for your fitting size, we should start shipping next week. Those who have selected the "early access" reward will soon be confirmed by email as beta testers, and we will keep this email list so we can send you an early download link for the pro version of the Mcalc.

THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR ALL THE SUPPORT! we are still halfway there (over 1500€! yay), and we still believe that is possible to reach our goal, but we wanted to say a big THANK YOU! to all of our supporters, pledgers, rebloggers and followers. Even if we don´t reach our goal, we are so thrilled by the support is getting that we will make it happen one way or another. You are still on time to help, just reblog, tell others, share on your favorite social media site, and if you have the economical means, then you can donate and receive some of our wonderful rewards either way you can help it does make a difference, every reblog counts.

We will still use the raised money to develop what we can of the IOS version, anything that we need to pay to complete it will come out of our pockets, but it may take longer than what we expected

Raising the 3000€ euros meant that we could hire extra hands to help us with the project, and finish it before Xmas.
