Pretty staggering success story on Kickstarter today as a card game "Exploding Kittens" went up with a goal of raising $10K.  It achieved it in 20 minutes!  It went quickly to $100K in an hourd and over 1 million within the first day.  In its second day it has surpassed 2 million dollars raised and will end being one of the biggest successes on Kickstarter.

What is it? Basically a card game where you play to not lose as Exploding Kittens kick you out of the game, last man standing wins.

Why is it so insanely successful? I put a lot of it behind "The Oatmeal" creator promoting it and doing the artwork. Has a strong and loyal following that have helped make this already have ~56K (and counting) backers.

What do you think? Going to back it?
How far could this go? 3 million? 5 million? 10 million?
