Yep.
[quote name="Mysterio"][quote name="fabio"]The others you can theoretically write off to amateurs biting off more than they can chew, but fucking christ how long can a Tom vs Bruce article possibly take? Play an online co-op game with a buddy then come up with a page of commentary each? Plus an hour to format and upload? Nothing in those articles is any more detailed, insightful, or funny than caltrops articles done in the spare time of lazy assholes. And jonesy isn't even paying us a bitcoin ($500) per review. Thousands of people do this shit for free. Who wouldn't jump at the chance to crank one out in a single day for $500?[/quote] The people that get this free money -- this was absolutely free -- feel it's their right. They already earned it by working at the Kickstarter. Having to do this other shit is a burden. SORRY TOM AND BRUCE but hundreds of other Kickstarters operate the same way. They think that religiously checking the Kickstarter took work, and that's what they got paid for. Bruce is a surgeon. Great idea, a guy with no time, massive responsibility and who doesn't need the money having a Kickstarter. Of course he doesn't give a shit. Of the $13K raised, he probably got, what, 5,000? That's less than two weeks' pay. When you give money ahead of time, you're eliminating the hunger that motivates a lot of people to make this kind of money. It speaks to their characters, to some degree. I guess?[/quote]
