I never said I didn't or did know who he is. And even if I did, it's just something I'd never disclose; as that's a sure fire way to burn a source

ps: I think EightAce and co are probably going to be laying low for awhile, given what I've heard today about the latest noise and the resulting meetings. They're loving pissed. And yes, they're still accusing people of leaking stuff to Derek Smart.

If the EightAce Project were completely removed from CIG, this wouldn't really matter would it? So it sounds like this is both an inside and outside job. I do wonder what CIG can threaten at this point to stop EightAce from putting out information tho. Those involved seem to have resigned themselves to the risks.

Let's try this again:

1) The comment he made about "Chaos Engine", has NOTHING to do with THAT forum

2) That forum is not a "chaos engine" where game devs gather to chat, gossip etc about the industry

3) That forum does not have ANY topics related the Star Citizen discourse

http://www.thechaosengine.com/index.php?forums/#the-games-industry.28

ergo: no, it's completely unrelated to the point that the poster was making about the "chao engine" that's going on with FUD

e:

quote:

The industry is a very small place....despite it employing thousands of people world wide , there is only really a small amount that control it and have any real clout. Someone on here , I know who , but no hard feelings whatsoever, pasted some of my more predictive posts on Chaos engine, in an industry only forum where there is much speculation and hilarity from people that really do know what they are talking about. The whole industry is laughing their collective sexual organs off at the whole thing. But there are exceptions. Most noticeably one Evangelical young man who is so brainwashed that he will not hear a word said against CIG, the project or the management. Because of this , much of what is discussed here has circulated among the dev staff. I would say 60% think it hilarious, stick it to them etc. 20% Im sure are making GBS threads themselves in case they have any connection to me and 10% are determined to track me and any other dissenters down like wild beast's, and present our pelt's before the Stimporer and his consort. Thing is they are now running on fumes both figuratively and ideologically. People realize that this is doomed including the press who are contacting people left right and center. I still maintain that this is NOT a scam and even now in the dying days of Rome the brains-trust still really and truly believe that if they show enough shiny JPEGS and trailers for SQ42 then they will get over this and still produce the BDSSE.

He is referring to SA forum and Goons. Sheesh, how hard was that to figure out?

Saw a post on Derek's FB page with a screencap of it, had a surreal moment of thinking "I've read that somewhere before", and then realized it was me.

Pretty trippy when that happens.

I don't even spend much time at mmorpg.com anymore. When I do go there, I inevitably run into the idiocy that floods the SC forums, and it drives me nuts. Erillion, in particular... holy crap. If SC fans are the Scientologists of gaming, then Erillion is Tom Cruise.

All we need is Tom Cruise jumping on a couch, shooting jpeg ships at Oprah, and the picture will be complete.

Now that I think about it, can someone do that? That would be pretty amazing.

(Edited, 'cause my Tom Cruise scenario didn't really make sense and I'm slightly OCD lol.)
