Dead Inside Darwin posted:the kind in the sleeves right? those are good enough for a meal but you really dont want to use the cheapass wood for more than one. oh no, you throw them out with the styrofoam container that the food comes with. new pair every time, just like the packet of hot mustard, duck sauce, soy sauce, wonton strip things and fortune cookie.

i'm convinced that the trick to having a kickstarter that is successful and not a total crock of poo poo is to already have everything planned out and vetted know where and who your suppliers are already and how to do basic orders with them, have working demos of your product (even if just internally) kickstarters that are "money first solve all problems later" are going to fail or be really uncomfortable for everyone involved all the people i see succeeding (that is to say, getting money and actually getting back to their backers with a finished product) are clearly smart people who basically need the money last

the safest kickstarters are the ones where they're really just fundraisers for a particular thing like the pinball arcade projects were specifically to raise the funds to buy the licenses for those particular tables. as soon as the T2 kickstarter finished, they signed the deal and posted screens of a finished table

there's a few places around here that charge an entry fee or an hourly fee and put the machines on free play but their pinballs aren't maintained at all. i'll gladly put ten bucks in a single game if the pinballs actually travel in a straight line
