Post by: The_Bloody_Nine on July 07, 2014, 02:16:46 pm: Do you blame the people starting this or the ones spending money on it, though?
Title: Re: Kickstarter has gone too far
Post by: okiN on July 07, 2014, 02:23:17 pm: Mostly the latter. The guy's probably gonna wind up getting 50k to spend on a fucking potato salad, props to him.

Post by: Bulzur on July 07, 2014, 10:56:21 pm: Even the 1$ pledge has the "i will say your name out loud while making the potato salad" and has 544 backers.

With 1771 backers, that's a lot of names. He'll have to print out lots of pages for that list.

For fuck's sake, the amount has already tripled over the course of today, I don't think 50k is going to cut it. If this keeps up it may well go to six digits.

Post by: Kafein on July 08, 2014, 09:10:56 pm: To be honest the scary part is that now they have to go through with this and send the rewards etc.

Post by: SixThumbs on July 08, 2014, 09:36:06 pm: I don't know if $50,000 dollars will be enough for when the party hall is destroyed.

I hope this goes mainstream and things really get out of control.
