They have still been used in a commercial venture as promotional material to secure funding, all without any type of licensing that would allow for any such use.

I can't believe that it's almost funded. Come on guys, hit them with the real questions to get them agitated on camera Bring out the shame cannon. Bring in a lawyer with a cease and desist on camera... do something!

G0RF posted:Derek gave us "That's him in the wheelchair" and many other precious moments. That is a Top 5 Greatest Thread Moments gift-- he is essential to the great work of this critically vital conversation. I caught most of that reveal but what happened with that? I think this was DickWulfe, who had posted here and who was a huge troll and uber-backer who was giving ungodly amounts of money to CIG. He gets kicked out of the thread and when there is a guy in a wheelchair posted in the thread Derek identifies him with "that's him, in the wheelchair" I think it's because we haven't talked about him recently (which in the timeline of this thread seems like a million years)

spacetoaster posted:Random old duder just chewing on screen. I have a vision. I have an idea, burning into my brain with such ferociousness that I can barely sleep, I can barely eat. My goal, my idea becomes crystal clear in my head. My heart thumps with purpose, with a confident thump that guides my soul onto the same path. My idea needs to be released. The world must see it. My vision requires risk. Not just of myself. Not just of my reputation, of my time, blood, sweat and tears. It requires that it be put out into the world. In a sea of ideas. Thousands, millions of ideas released a day onto the public. A torrent of wants and needs satisfied on all levels. My idea may be lost under the sea of others. My idea may never see light, may never be born from my fertile imagination and purpose to something physical, tangible. Something that may bring the joy and happiness to others, as it has to me. So I take a risk, and put my idea out into the world. I depend on others in joining me on the journey. I take control of the ship, and guide it through the swarm of other ideas. I rise above the rest. I can see the light. The birth is around the corner. My heart thumps harder, and faster. The excitement fills my being. Hours away from the end, thousands away from my idea proving my existence, my gamble, my risk. I decide to stay off camera for a good hour eating in silence. I am a visionary.

G0RF posted:pick your poison... I'm guessing it's 3b, based on EightAce's earlier hints and Derek's recent hints. I'm really not sure. It's an interesting theory. I rather wish that our various know all seers had reported on if Tony himself was currently in LA (or, if he is, I'm unaware of it). While I'm no great mind my lizard brain feels that Erin Roberts is content with concluding Squadron 42 and, for all I know, remains enthused with his revisit to a familiar genre despite the obvious hurdles with which he must be working. It strikes me as very odd that he would be tasked with the burden of figuring out anything related to Tony's domain of PU poo poo. At least I think it was PU poo poo. Anyways. The only reason I could see a need to call in Erin is if Chris is being a chickenshit about firing people and needed to fly his brother all the way to California to do it (which seems unlikely given the various legends of Sandi's infamous cackling delight regarding that chore) or if Erin has been given the unhappy task of assuming 100% control of all production associated with the game pending Chris' lapse of interest with anything unrelated to telling people how to wave their hands in mocap gear. But I doubt that Erin is interested in that side of things. It also strikes me as weird that CR would bow out of those changes given his apparent delight with micromanagement. Circular pointless nonsense aside. It could simply be that CR needs to do more poo poo in Manchester to re-shoot mocap ladder animations for the 28th time and they decided that if one Roberts is in Manchester the other should be in LA. This is a terrible post. Holy poo poo.

HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAH who asked about the JPEG'S???? EDIT In case I am the only idiot still watching this, someone asked Grandpa if he would just sell JPEG's instead of a game, since that is where the real money is. Miku, being a goddamn idiot even though he is on the hunt for "trolls", lets this question go through. Grandpa, god bless him, thinks it's a real question.

Xaerael posted:When it gets to the last 10 mins, you watch, massive pull out. Once it reaches the goal amount, you can't pull money out to make it drop below the goal. I want them to fail at sniping their own kickstarter so bad. But it seems like there are more whales putting money in than pulling out. So they might not even need to throw a thousand or two in at the end. Watching the amount bounce up and down

Can we keep a list of the troll questions that got answered for posterity? Some of them were really funny. My lovely questions were meant to bore people out of donating and were: What type of card are you using? How many individual pieces are in the box? Actually good goon ones: Can I steal assets in this game? Can I take a players card and pretend it is my card? The JPEG one. Old grandpa just kept earnestly reading them so I'm sure there were more since I stopped watching for the last couple hours. The stolen assets one was my favourite.
