I thought it was, but I just checked and I couldn't find it. Guess it is inconclusive, but was ultimately waved off due to lack of evidence. I found this though.

Also yeah other staff members in TFYC get paid. I think the only one who doesn't get any money from this is the creator, who was accused of exploiting women by Zoe.

8% of the profits from selling the game when it's done go to the original idea girl. The rest goes to charity (for colon cancer).

4chan tries to shout down any ideas that could give the journalists ammo to change the narrative of the story against them, like a protest at PAX. Although many people are talking of wearing Five Guys hats at PAX and they're trying to figure out how to get 5G to cater PAX.

Are they still going to use that bad charity that gives under 10% to actual research, because that's the one Quinn donated to and they want to show we're all friends or something?

That was a separate thing where they were gonna sell a t-shirt. He's since turned that over to /v/ to figure out themselves with ShirtWasCash.com, since the shirt's gonna have /v/'s character on it. /v/ knows that charity sucks, so, probably not. I saw a thread where the idea was kicked around to donate the proceeds from the t-shirt to a charity Robin Williams had contributed to in his name or something.

You can actually vote for the game to be made from the campaign, even if you haven't donated.

The thing that really gets me about this is that she thinks making a lovely game in twine gives her any kind of insight on actual game development. 8% for an idea and a product you can actually show is a really good deal.

this seems even worse, the "winner" won't see any profit unless the game is actually made and put up for sale, why not give her a share of the indiegogo money instead and let 100% of the sale proceeds go to charity

What does idea mean in that indiegogo thing. Do they mean a detailed and extensive design document or do they mean "cat with a katana, kind of like sonic meets shenmu" because there's a massive difference.

At which point, the winner has to settle for all the free concept art and exposure their idea got to try and get the game made elsewhere? How terrible that would be. :confused:
