The song? Dallas theme. 70s 80s primetime drama.

I don't remember the 70's SHAFT-sounding addition. Is this a different version of the theme?

It makes me wonder if, in the end when this is all over, the information in the storage of their databases will be enough to convict them of criminal negligence. I doubt it, I am no lawyer so I have on idea, but it seems like they are being extremely negligent.

That's what I figured. Thanks for the clarification.

It unsettles me when people suggest I have already spent money on SC spaceships... because I haven't, but I do plan to. This thread had made the idea of doing that feel so wrong, but when I observe SC from a gamer perspective the idea of buying those spaceships just feel so right.

I'm confused, I WANT to believe the dream.

The sad truth is you see this type of thing happen, more then people would like to think, with much smaller sums of money. It's a video game at the end of the day - a video game - and these people come off like they are pinning their hopes and dreams on it. I worry that even if it does manage to somehow come out it will fail to live up to these incredibly high expectations that these people have built up, and it's going to destroy them when it doesn't fulfill every little space .jpeg fantasy they have.

Those at the top, Chris/Sandi/etc, have to know that they are allowing these people to put themselves into both a financial and psychological hole. I can't believe that they are so stupid as to not know that. Yet here they are continuing to do just that and gleefully putting their hands out for more money. It's disgusting to say the least. But when you look at people like Ben and his wife it's not surprising that they don't care. They are clearly allowing their own employees to slowly kill themselves. So what do they care if some random backer they don't know kills themselves because they failed to live up to their word.

Sandi knows. She's proud of it. More than once she's talked about the "connection" people feel with SC and she credits it as part of the success of her marketing strategy.

You should go all out and buy the Completionist Package for $10,000. That will give you the opportunity to buy a Javelin for another $2,500. Your collection still won't be complete at that point though so you may want to buy some additional ships.
