Lawrence Gilchrist posted:I went to the Kickstarter main page and hit discover and got the Hemingwrite as the first page. Came here to post the gold in the comments section but since you folks have already harped on the thing i'll let it go. Except for this: I can understand that people would want something more functional, but if you want something more functional just go buy a laptop.

I look forward to it funding and the project starter failing to deliver wood blocks. The Hemmingwrite has a stupid name and is hipster bullshit, but I actually like that my model kindle doesn't have a bunch of wifi and apps and notifications and poo poo to distract me from my novel I'm reading so I get the basic appeal of the concept applied to actually writing.

All of her previous stuff seems to be half art half design so if it fails at one, its probably the other. I don't think the creator is insecure so much as really used to being called a genius. If your product is art, its beyond scrutiny (but not above crowd-funder panhandling).

I think that sending a smarmy email to the guy running the "Your Kickstarter Sucks" blog telling him he's too dumb to understand the project and asking "what have you done with your life so far?" passes over into insecurity but YMMV. vv

Sorry, I missed the actual quote:quote:I am the creator of the Minimal Nativity Set. According to my stats you help the campaign. People following your trash blog actually understand the concept of the piece (obviously cleverer people than you) bought sets. Use yr brain 2 seconds to get that the project is about colours and therefore races. It has a deep meaning. But probably hard to understand for you as you probably just want to eat donuts and watch poo poo tv. what have you done with your life so far? reply emilie.voirinatgmaildotcom

Elysiume posted:Can't you not decrease/cancel your pledge if it would bring it from succeeding to not succeeding within some set time of it ending? Last 24 hours, and yes. It's caused some drama in the past when someone typed '10,00' into the box instead of '10.00' on the last day, so ended up backing for $1k instead of $10. This pledge took the project from unfunded to funded, so he couldn't cancel his pledge.

I invented tablé, it's a horizontal surface suspended by 4 sleek pillars for you to rest your hip snacks upon. The whole thing is made of wood which is renewable and cool. The really cool thing is it comes in all shapes and sizes, there are versions where you could eat cereal with you extended family, but also short ones you might put by your couch.
