The madness is over, though I wonder if this guy is going to go away or now or if he'll keep posting updates somewhere. One of the $10,000 donations did end up getting withdrawn.

He doesn't sound deterred just yet. He will make it, and we will love it.

Well with kickstater that is. So I want to send out a great big thanks to everyone who supported the project. Who donated because they believe in the project and who believe in me. We are still going forward and will continue to make this game a reality. So keep looking at the website and sign up to get updates. As we build content we will post it there.

To all the haters out there. Keep up he good work. You have been fun to play with. It will be great when the game comes out and you all are playing it and biting your tongue the entire time. Have fun.

Just FYI this is my last message here. I won't be looking at kickstater ever again. Should we try crowdfunding again we will use another services.

Again thanks. http://www.yourworldinc.com

I suppose we could keep tabs on it slightly longer.

I think what is really important here is guild banks. Without guild banks, there is madness. Where guild banks are is order and justice. Guild banks are good. No guild banks bad. Guild banks guild banks guild banks guild banks guild banks.

would occasionally switch girlfriends to get 'comparisons'
0.o

Yes, that's my reaction too.

So did the girls know about it or was it bait-and-switch rape?

Yeah, relatively certain they had no idea. Then again I never asked that much more about it...

It's actually the #1 suggestion if you put it in quotes like that. But that may be thanks to you just mentioning it again.  :P

Oh come now. Of all the insidious phrases the upper forums can generate with regards to DF, this is fairly tame. :P

Previously it seems the phrase was only really used by someone who was really angry at their camera (and the odd political blogger).  I guess we need to say the phrase in as many other places as possible to knock down the bay12 hit.

So we're trying to do the inverse of what an xkcd forum thread did?

   I don't don't know, Bait-and-Switch rape is a catchy term and we probably won't stop talking about it that easily. I actually considered using it in sig as a quote. Anyway one more thing:
Bit of a dick move don't you think?

And?

He hasn't accepted any advice that isn't his own, continually talks about how he can pull it off, despite having no experience, and how he's got millions he can throw at this project.

He's going to fail, it's a given.  I'm just along for the entertainment value of that failure.  So I can laugh and say, "I told you so" when he crashes and burns.

If he does miraculously pull it off and have a real, playable, marketable game at the end that doesn't have god awful mechanics and a hodgepodge of themes, etc. and he's still sane.  I will eat my hat.
You wrong about the part I bolded. He accept the hookerbot idea.
