    You are right, trolling it is: http://www.phoronix.com/scan.php?page=news_item&px=MTA3NDU Nice move ;)

    So, how long until we see Tomes of Mephistopheles up on Kickstarter? Might be worth a shot, especially if Kot-in-Action were to promise Alpha/Beta access to certain pledging-tiers, like they do with the 10$ pre-order on their Homepage. Gamers are suckers for that kind of stuff. Makes them feel special.
    And right now there are not many games up on Kickstarter that are similar to Tomes of Mephistopheles. Other things they got going for them is that they actually have a build of ToM they can show off in the pitch vid, finished games in the past and mentioning that they were part of a Humbebundle couldn't hurt either, I guess.

    It's all about how you sell the experience. Before you know it you have to yell "STOP THROWING ALL YOUR MONEYZ AT US!". But don't wait too long, the initial Kickstarter gold rush might soon be diminishing.

    Seriously, if all you need is $3k I really doubt you'd have a hard time getting that. Just need more publicity. No need to waste time pandering/trolling some oafs at an obscure linux forum.
