GAF needs to get this to $200,000 just for lulz.

 

[strafer]

geez

 

[OverBlood 3]

Hi I am Devin Tripp I am 20 years old and I have owned businesses ranging from clothing to stocks. I have learned and changed a lot in such short time. There is still much to learn, and I know that I am better prepared for the future to come.

 

[Occam]

Thanks for the laugh.
I wonder if the 35 backers are friends/family. Otherwise they should have their right to participate in political elections revoked in order to protect the rest of us.

 

[robotrock]

Are you proud of yourself?

 

[mcz117chief]

I can't believe this is real...

GAF needs to get this to $200,000 just for lulz.

yeah, lol

 

[hydruxo]

I just changed my pledge from $1,500 to $1.

I wonder what his emotions are like right now. lol

They're trolling him with fake pledges.

People started a metagame of chicken where they believe it won't get funded. If they win, no one loses nothing. If they lose, Devin gets 200k.

It's the perfect betting scheme.

 

[mcz117chief]

Somebody pledge a million just for the lulz

 

[Toma]

They're trolling him with fake pledges.

...until someone cries.

 

[YianGaruga]

Isn't there a thing where you can't remove your plegde if it would cause a project to go from funded to not funded?

 

[Zaheer]

Fucking hilarious.

 

[Fine Ham Abounds]

Leaning?

lol

Well, it's a joke for us certainly, I just mean I can't quite tell if this kid knows it yet

 

[hidys]

I don't think that is going to matter seeing as how this will definitely get taken down.

Not that I'm actually going to back this thing.

[keltickennedy]

Okay, who did it?

"Planet Name: Minecraft Coca Cola Mario Worldo"

*slowclap*

 

[superNESjoe]

I love you, Internet.

 

[What did he mean by this?]

Did you ever hear the Tragedy of Devin Tripp the Wise?

He had such a knowledge of the copyright law, he could even keep the Kickstarters he cared about...from dying.

 

[Sblargh]

Is it bad that I want this to survive just long enough so people can lose money?

I read that in his voice
Made it that much funnier

No one will. This has exactly zero chance of ever completing and getting funded. It's not something that can happen.

This thread just keeps on delivering.

 

[Toxi]

Risks and challenges:

Copy rights

Fucking lol

Fucking clowns

 

[Ithil]

I think it might be prudent to obtain the licence to make the game before starting a KS.

 

[Ragnar Blackmane]

This will be so glorious when it actually hits 200k ^^.

 

[pswii60]

He addresses this



He really thought of everything

Haha!

 

[MMaRsu]

Well I pledged 50 bucks

I'm afraid he'll find the Copyright Law is still... quite operational

 

[Brainsaw]

$1500 backers, please name your special lightsaber "DISNEY SUCKS"

I'd name it "Not the Wan you're looking for".

 

[Astrates]

Perfect haha.

It's not even April 1st Devin.

 

[bengraven]

Hey guys, I'm doing one too!

All I need:

- money
- people to do all the work for me
- the license

I'm on the same grounds as him!

 

[Toma]

Well, the kid might cry.
Or us once this party is over.

 

[mclem]

So much about this is adorable.

I am not talking about a 1995/2005 game that could be created in a month or two.

Let's see. I was in the games industry in 2005, so I was churning out, what, six games a year?

You don't seem better prepared for the future to come, tho.

 

[mnannola]

If this gets funded, this guy gets 200K, and then Disney sends a C & D...what happens to the money?

Jesus Christ.... perfection

 

[RealityCheque]

George Lucas said he was fine with it so its happening!

....wait, something's seems off about that.
