I have reason to believe that Ortwin is THE TICKLER

  • The comment from 5 months ago by ticklelover01 states that THE TICKLER is now working on a video game
  • We've established that the two bosses associated with Rising Star Productions are Ortwin and Chris
  • RSP only has a handful of staff members on their "about" page, none of whom appear to be connected to Star Citizen
  • THE TICKLER's latest account on that fetish website points to the following NSFW web store; http://clips4sale.com/studio/16393
  • All the videos involve the same style shot. Tripod set up, with a male and a female. This is not an advanced set up and does not require any crew
  • The male depicted in the videos has a darker skin tone than CROBBERTS
  • The male depicted in the videos has the same skin tone as Ortwin
  • The male also has very similar hands as well as the same build as Ortwin
  • CIG's lack of diversity ensures that Ortwin is the only possible candidate for THE TICKLER

This is a pro-read. It's a huge slapfight about hype in general, "Being sold lies" with comparisons to Star Citizen being thrown out everywhere.

No Man's Sky is a case study in the opposite (bad) way to do PR/community relations. Say nothing with enough ambiguity (and a :smuggo: face) that people start inventing their own reality to fill the void. Once that happens no amount of subsequent (patchy) expectation management while dribbling information out over months is going to temper it.

Germans like boring poo poo games. Also when you move house in Germany it's customary to take your kitchen with you. So the first thing you have to do when you move in somewhere is fit a loving kitchen.

It's a strange place.

Also all the light fittings.

Can someone who has worked with this type of presentation before provide some kind of cost estimate for the whole shindig?

EDIT: My guess, knowing CIG, is $250,000. And that's not counting all the first class airline tickets.

Every year the company I work for exhibits at Achema in Germany in a space about the size of that, typically we budget about € 800'000.

Just think...Roberts is probably jogging up and down a little bit in place...his life coach telling him he is awesome and not pay attention to detractors as makeup and hair is applied.

Life coach: "You dreamed this."

Roberts: "Yeah um guess I did."

Life coach: Look at your watch. It is the watch of man with style and gravitas.

poo poo con will blow everyone that isn't a game developer away. From what I've seen " Crobberts and Co vendor of finest quality jpegs since 2012 " will be raking it in . I reckon 3 mill on the back of poo poo con alone. He is also riding everyone hard to get sq42 ep 1.001 prologue to the prologue out for Christmas.

It's a rather dark turn, and I'd like to think that everyone involved with both the game and in the community will stop and take a loving hard look at themselves and what they're involved in.

The public perception of this project in 2016 is very, very bad.

I hope that Chris and Erin Roberts (liars) can now see loud and clear the type of people who are paying their wages and shilling their game.

I applaud your optimism that reality can penetrate Crobbler's self-delusion fueled deflector shields.
