Some galactic defender you are, Space Cadet.
For Sale By Owner - A Metaphor


quote:

"The pictures detail everything that's been accomplished to date. It comes complete with all of the parts necessary to cross the finish line. Unfortunately, I have no more time to dedicate to this project. All of the hard work is done. Frame, body mounting, door assembly, and interior fitting are the hardest tasks with these builds. It needs electrical, mechanical, upholstery, body work, and paint."
This is, in spirit, going to be Chris Roberts' sales pitch to Electronic Arts.

Marching Powder is objectively the worst poster known. He also needs to learn how a keyboard works.

So, I just had an in-shower eureka moment.

What if all these mo-cap studios and poo poo are all so crobborts can make SC the most elaborate and realistic Sewer Shark remake ever.

Think about it.

I'm still catching up, so if the following retreads ground, I apologize.

If CIG folds, I expect that the mocap studio/custom office space will be sold to another company probably owned by one of the principals here; maybe CR himself, but more likely Ortwin, Erin, or one of the others. Given that refunds are being paid out of any number of companies, it's possible, if not probable, that the cash for the transaction will actually be backer funds. These funds will then be used to pay off creditors; the debts were likely taken to fund the game, while at least part of the cash probably stood as collateral -- of course, non-cash assets might have been used for collateral as well, leaving CR & co. with the liquidity they needed to fund a lavish lifestyle and try to wriggle their way back into Hollywood.

Most popular post in r/StarCitizen is moaning that CIG isn't getting 100% sloppy blowjobs from the press.

https://www.reddit.com/r/starcitizen/comments/3rqz64/my_editorial_why_cant_we_talk_about_star_citizen/

Most popular explanation is evil publishers are paying off games sites to rubbish Star Citizen in case it makes their games look bad.

All of their mocap studio coverage is going to make an excellent addition to the Croberts coke fuelled Escapist rant as links to send them when they ask what prompted a refund request.

Beer--

Could we crowdfund a new custom brew from you-- maybe called "Bitter Tears" or some crap. I would pay good money to have a six bottles of that on hand for the day this finally implodes. I have a couple of friends who are going to need some-- and the higher the ABV, the better.

(I'm 100% serious- and would pledge decent money to that endeavor if you could find it in your heart to concoct it.)

This sounds hilarious. What kind of beer would it be?

It's all beers.

Just give us periodic updates about how the brewing is going and let us know that another batch opened up now and then if we want to order some more.

Maybe some label jpgs.

Just curious. I hate washing my gear because all the drat velcro even in a mesh bag is a fuggin pain.

To clarify, I'm in Learn to Play and should be ready for real hockey in the spring. Bootcha is the real hockey player. His gear does not smell so fresh. :(

I keep the velcro stuff closed so it can't get all twisted and crazy in the wash. I keep my hockey pants tied shut when washing them for the same reason.
