You know, assuming botcha is telling the truth there's really significant information here. He's made it clear there are investors (and he is one) outside of the $90mil. And VCs don't invest hundreds of thousands of dollars - not usually and definitely not in a project like this. This might change the "How long does CIG have left?" calculation Derek has been posting. Honestly this could change a lot of things if it's true.

Still no response to my refund request other than the generic auto response. I wonder if they're getting overwhelmed or if the well is drying up.

By what I have seen it takes about a week to hear back, and 2-4 from request to refund. By what I gather there are only a couple doing them, and also they research all your transactions- everything you melted, gifted, and received.

MrAptronym posted:No, he is claiming to be a VC and telling us many other VCs were bought out when the project reached 25 mil in total funding. Was this the $25m stretch goal? I'm guessing backers' money made this possible. Not that they'd mind, mind.

Bootcha posted:I have the ability to ask more directly what the gently caress is going on. My approach has been to act like a guest and not a boogeyman suit, because my profit share agreement can be nulled and returned for being an rear end in a top hat at their discretion (within reasonable proof thereof). I have also stated, past and presently, to them that showing numbers is a good way to quell allegations of fraud. Hey buddy, I work in finance and what you're describing is utter insanity. Adding to what's already been said, I'm not sure how much experience you have with investing much less VC type stuff but the balance of power should always be with the investor and you should always be able to see their books. It's your money and you're here to make a profit, not play a video game so acting like a trained house pet is a terrible idea. At the very least you should be demanding independently audited financial statements. I'm not sure how much you're in for but seriously, drop whatever you're doing now and go find a financial advisor, an accountant and a lawyer, put them all in the same room and get professional help.

Holy loving poo poo. This is a scam! I just thought it was a standard "deliver a game thats done but buggy and lacks finish" scam. But its something so much more labyrinthine.quote:While the official shop lets players buy ships from Cloud Imperium Games, players can't officially sell ships to each other. Enter the Star Citizen grey market. If I was a slimy producer, I would want to convince my rich guy friends to buy not stocks, but Spaceships! They would make money, which, I the CRummy producer, could convince them to reinvest in more spaceships! As long as they make money, they'll bring their friends; who also have money. Its a great money making scheme. It would be an even better scheme if the investment window could be lengthened somehow.
