It's a shitty MMO and holds all the things we hold as complete decline. I say throw it into the shit pile.
That's just My opinion (as a HUGE Ultima fan).

HEY PEEPS THIS IS AWESOME AND RUN BY A FRIEND AND IT IS AWESOME GIVE EM UR MONEY PLZ K THX :Dhttp://www.kickstarter.com/projects/178087494/thon …
This Kickstarter for THON will fund the mass production of the plastic injected game models on sprue (assembly required), rulebooks, custom dice, markers and packaging and get the game into your home.
The game's Core Set consists of a skirmish sized army from both the Sons of Ord and the Thonian Alliance, dice, markers, reference cards and rulebook.
THON is three games in one; Versus, a 1v1 head to head battle of tactics and wits, a traditional pen and paper style RPG and a casual design your own free-for-all.
The PnP fags here mind this interesting?

Homeworld

Not sure how legal is this whole ordeal.

kaizoku: Rewards are terrible, they want to put HW on mobile/tablet, do not want. Buying licences is a pretty awful use of crowdfunding.
This is also their second attempt, they had a flex funding indiegogo that didn't get close to their goal. http://www.indiegogo.com/projects/s...d-homeworld-touch?website_name=save-homeworld

It's not up to you to decide what's a good use of crowdfunding or not, backers decide by choosing what to back and what to ignore. As long as it's an honest and realistic project anything is fair.

Sounds like a scam. They don't have the license, and we don't even know whether current holders want to sell it, nor for how much. And 50k for a licence + development is so unrealistic that it makes those guys look totally incompetent.
They are going multiplatform, so they will most likely use engine like Unity3D. If they stick to free version, then it's 1300 for android, ios and team license per seat. 5000 if they go for pro. I assume they'll have to have at least 2-3 of those. And what about stuff for artists? They can probably get along with blender and gimp but they will still need hardware to run it. And OS licenses. Let's not forget that if anyone will work on this fulltime the'll have to be paid.
tl;dr bullshit and scam
Yaar Podshipnik: Homeworld is actually one of the licences THQ will be auctioning soon.
Spectacle: I am the kickstarter police.
If they don't get the licence (and they won't) I wonder who will be footing the 10% of so lost in fees to indiegogo after they refund everyone?

This one could be a record-breaker: http://www.kickstarter.com/projects/559914737/the-veronica-mars-movie-project
Seems likely to break Torment's fastest to a million record at least. :grumblegrumble:
Never seen the show so no idea if the project is a good or bad thing.
edit: The video is actually pretty funny.

Poor Torment, you only lasted on top for a week. 
Yeah this is really fascinating. A major studio saying yes, we will allow you to make a movie with our trademark if you can show enough interest is interesting. Not a fan of the series but am hopeful this will succeed.
