Mark your calendars for our second round of crowdfunding in early November.

But then below that it states:

LEGO® Ideas 10k Club: Upcoming Crowdfunding Round 2
We have chosen the next nine designs for crowdfunding! Mark your calendar. Pre-ordering
starts on August 15th!

Which one of these is the true second round of crowdfunding?

That is as clear as mud. Maybe 32nd Elvtember.

The August 15th part is particularly weird as I'm sure the original start
date for round 2, before the round 1 phase 2 changes, was 1st September. November
seems far more likely as I can't see any of it being brought forward, but
someone must have manually changed it to that. Perhaps they meant to type 15th
November?

I thought this was all a little odd the other day as it seemed unlikely the remaining
sets would have surged to 10k in a few days after a slow start, and the page
is now back to normal with round 1 phase 2 running until 31st August.

Maybe there was a test page that accidentally went live but for those of us eagerly
awaiting round 2 this may be a pointer that it will start on 1st November. I'm
clinging to that anyway

If you go past the Crowdfunding 2 and go the Future crowdfunding for Round three,
it states that that starts on November 1st; so maybe round 2 is on the 15th and
round 3 on the 1st?

But who knows.
