Hey guys, we should make our own original game using nothing but shutterstock photos, but forget to edit out the watermarks slightly.

We could call it the great paaarp heist.

As a parody, someone who make some Goon Trader "art" and send him copies saying we need kickstarter money.

The sad part is, the actual game seems rather ok:ish. Sure, it's 80:s as gently caress with all the random design(non)sensibilities of that era, but by the look and description of it on BGG, it might be due for a nostalgic reprint (or maybe even a '10s rule update).

I suppose that you could parody that by making an actual modern card-based space trading game, but at that point, most people would just think you made a worse version of Galaxy Trucker.

PSA:

Just posting this here for reference so that you all can bookmark it. You'll soon find out why.

The trigger in ToS v1.2 which will require (they won't do it voluntarily) them to provide refunds and a full accounting, will expire 18 months from when they promised the project to be delivered on Nov 2014. It was set to expire in Nov 2015 as per the previous ToS. Then they extended it from 12 to 18 months. So the new expiration date is Mar 31, 2016.

NOTE: It doesn't matter when you pledged. As long as you accessed their services (game, forum) and AGREED to the ToS v1.2 revision, you are subject to it. All previous versions would then be null and void. However, if you NEVER accessed their systems, and thus never agreed to ToS v1.2, then you are not only due a refund, but also due a full accounting as per the previous ToS versions.

More details here.

Funding has utterly stalled. 3 hours, stuck at $42,500-ish. I'm 100% sure it WILL get funded because some SC retard/croberts will kick in the last chunk, or Old Geezer will kick in the last chunk at the zero hour.

Kicktraq's final results will tell all.

i don't have to imagine very hard

His disposable income is such that "tens of thousands of dollars (or more)" is probably the equivalent of some Goons spending 250 bucks on an autism chariot. It's not that big of a deal to him. I like to imagine you'll contribute to the thread, that's harder than what you're imagining.

I stumbled on his channel, knowing he was playing SC, but not knowing his backing amount, and asked several quite pointed questions. He didn't seem too terrible. $37k is quite the doozy, though, and he seems blinded - clearly - to the realities of what's happening.

At least he didn't come off like a douchebag when I talked to him, I guess? IDK.

I would rank it Dickwolf, Clifford, Wesha (though Wesha and his cool millions are probably more insufferable than Clifford). I think they are all north of 30k spent on this shitshow.
