Derek when's the next blog, also when are you going to publish the ship sale list? Also please give a date and then be really late doing it. The idea of all those reddit idiots constantly refreshing your twitter stream and getting incredibly annoyed more than makes up for any temporary disappointment I'll have at having to wait.

CrazyLoon posted:Wonder how many citizens will get permabanned from their forums this time, merely for repeating the leaked ship names ala Beer. My plan is get as many people banned as possible. The more people they ban, the more aggro they get. Seriously, there is an entire plan in play. And rabid White Knights are the key element of making that plan stay on track. Thus far, they continue to deliver and I couldn't have asked for a better PR machine. I couldn't take out Google Ads and get this much traction. At all.

Beet Wagon posted:"The day of judgement is soon upon us. It will be glorious and spoken of from the mouths of man for all of gaming history. (The sands of time have run out, son of Durotan)" LOL!! don't joke, I already heard from sources that very few people have access to the ship names. Seeing as Ben and Lando are two of those people with access to that list, I hope they don't get fired because as much as I rail on those guys, I really do like that they're serious about their jobs. It's the same reason why nobody was mad at the Iraqi information minister. The flip-side of that is that employing an age-old tactic of weeding out a mole, by putting our bogus intel and seeing who leaks it, is something that I also need to be very wary of. What's really pissing me off is that, for a game that touts "open development", we have to rely on leaked information - for a crowd-funded game - in order to know about this deal in a game that's being funded by the public. Assholes.

Tortolia posted:Star Citizen fanatics have been hanging their hats on the idea that Derek is making poo poo up. Anything to corroborate that he has internal sources providing him legit info makes them more uncomfortable and desperate, which provides us more humor. Yup, this despite the fact that anything I've said, has actually been proven to be true. e.g. they're still in denial about the Austin studio. Go figure.

It's the same reason why nobody was mad at the Iraqi information minister. I actually think this whole spy-vs-spy thing is one of the more interesting developments to come out of this whole debacle. I've spitballed up a list of ships that I'm pretty certain the sale is going to see and I'm interested to eventually see what your leaks say when you drop them. How credible do you think the idea is that they will use this as an opportunity to go mole hunting? If it were me I wouldn't even bother trying to weed out the mole, because if anybody ever caught wind that they were doing it they would lose any sort of deniability on the whole thing. But then again I've never convinced hoards of nerds to give me 95 million dollars, so what do I know? Also, as a side note I really wasn't kidding, this thread is never more entertaining than when you are going HAM on predictions and tossing around biblical-sounding statements.

Hav posted:No, it's not. Being jailed for something implies a criminal case, not a civil case. Rhode Island brought a civil case because they had no primary evidence of fraud that would have interested the FBI, mainly because their assertion is a risk assessment was *ignored*. Bear in mind that you have to prove beyond a reasonable doubt that there was a specific attempt to defraud, rather than simply being forgetful or crap. Most fraud cases that are actually heard involve someone handing someone else money. Wait. Are you saying that nobody connected to the 38 Studios fiasco was jailed for fraud?
