Well when you consider they need to support their NINE PERSON TEAM



Truly, such a think-tank was necessary to craft the perfection that is 999bottles

Edit: gently caress, EIGHT PERSON TEAM.

Don't worry dude, it looks like it'll be nine in a couple months.

The pitch video is amazing.
Unfortunately this spectacular project failed to attract even a single pledge before it reached its deadline.

The same guy pitched another film which was also hilariously terrible.

I would watch the poo poo out of the Black Dragon. That was awesome.

EuroStache - Photo Book, Part I

As best I can tell, the idea behind the project is to backpack around Europe, taking pictures of random people's moustaches. Honestly, I can't think of a worse front for a kickstarter funded vacation through Europe. He was at least nice enough to put his itinerary in the page.


If you donate $5, you'll get a phone call from him, because I'm sure everyone wants to know how his trip was.

???? - This country is only available in the 'Special Edition' version of the book, which you can receive along with many other amazing items for a pledge amount of $100.

Only a hundred bucks. Sweet.

Perhaps, but the flip side of that is that when you pay $30 for a piece of plastic coated wire and a suction cup, you expect it to be the best goddamn plastic coated wire and suction cup possible. As it seems to have gone you get all of the disappointment of paying $30 for a product that looks like it cost 50 cents to manufacture. I've been reading through the comments and looking at photos and such. The difference in cost between "good suction cup" and "worthless suction cup" can't be all that much, so I'm not sure what happened.


One of the reviews say the suction cup wasn't even included.

Edit: Ah it seems they decided not to include suction cups in the iPad version.

You didn't even crack a smirk at how long the laugh track lasted for the world's most phoned in rock/church pun?

The laugh track was hilarious. I didn't get the joke.

Although I think your idea is a nightmare from a health and safety POV, you might also want to check out these guys http://2.8hourslater.com/ who do zombie "tag" events in cities across the UK.

I read that as 2.8 Hour Slater, and imagined a survival game wherein I'm chased by an undead AC Slater, and have to seek refuge in Bayside High.

Please make this happen TraderStav.

Yeah, it sounds like he's been really down about not working on his youtube videos recently and then he finally works his way up to getting excited about a project again but spirals back into depression.


For comparison check out Völgarr the Viking, a retro-styled 2D side scroller inspired by classic games like Castlevania, Super Ghouls & Ghosts and Rastan. The pitch video is two dorky guys going "Hey, we're professional games creators, here's a list of all the games we've worked on recently, we've got this project finished to the point where we're happy to show off the game play, we got an actual artist to do the cover art and an actual musician to do the music, we've already put a shitload of our own time & money into this already but we just need some $$ to help finish it off."
If you pledge $7,500 you get a full sized Völgarr arcade machine.
They've only just started their fundraiser and they're already 1/3 funded. Oh and they're asking for less than 1/4 of what the Bad Dudes 2 guys are asking for.

Oh man, that Megadrive spoof edition is brilliant. I think I might have to break my pledging virginity.

Indiegogo get 9% of raised funds from flexible funded campaigns if they fail to reach their goal and 4% if they do. (They get 4% from fixed funding campaigns if they meet their goal only). They're probably happy to cash in on the "too shady for kickstarter" market.

This is from the same people that tried to pitch the photographic comic book, using poor quality shots from a comic-con.

I admit, the precision dice have a good write up for them. Even if it's absolute cock. Also, metal dice have a special gamer novelty to them (the pans have a similar grognard novelty). If he optioned for different die (particularly d20s) he'd probably be swimming in money right now.

You have to try really hard to make the internet not give a poo poo about cats, and they seem to have managed it.

If they just had a 'funny' video of a guy trying to put a cute cat on the scanner, but the cat keeps walking off and falling asleep on the keyboard, they'd have been funded in about eight seconds.
