ManofManyAliases posted:I did - about a year ago. And then what happened? He kind of backed out of the limelight a bit and let Erin, Tracey and others take more responsibility. I feel like he keep to the realization that he's going to need the help and expertise of others to get the project done. In doing so, they've kept things under wraps so that they wouldn't have to face such scrutiny. You know Toast, all of a sudden I got this feeling CR may be gradually pushed away until full practical exit. All Erin, Tony and co would need would be the rigth excuse and context to make him save enough face. 10FTC being cancelled and Erin becoming more and more prominent in the whole thing may say so, who knows. I can see Chris just acting as some kind of special advisor or honorific chairman title and showing up here or there to sign autographs when needed. One can but dream. Also, did you manage to find those additional revenue sources you stated? Or were you just thinking about loans? ManofManyAliases posted:Well, yeah. The operational expense for 180 people is not cheap. But, they were still net positive cash flows at the end of the year. That's a huge positive for an entity with 22 mil operational expense. Even then, it gets consolidated to the parent, who's obviously using this entity to offset their tax burden. I believe you have already been corrected on the employee number. The opex in the financials are not covering 180 (not even 184), but just 132 average employees in 2015. For a 2015 equivalent of around 22.5 million USD. That suggests an overall ballpark of around 40-50 million dollars for a 270 people organization, give or take. Plus any other specific expenses not related to F42 that may be unaccounted for. Now 2015 yielded around 36 million USD in pledges. And so far 2016 is looking at a 25-30% lower income in average compared to 2015, so around 26 million USD for the year. We do not exactly know the cash reserves CIG may have, although anyone can get to a reasonable ballpark estimate, but even in the most optimistic case unless revenue spikes dramatically within the next 6 months or so, something will have to give. Either CIG rushes a released crappy poduct, a cancellation or a significant downsizing. Or all of the above. Unless.. Your other sources of revenue are investors. And in which case the whole premise of a 100% crowdfunded game would go down the toilet aswell. MedicineHut fucked around with this message at 18:12 on Jul 11, 2016 |

No, it's definitely a photoshop job. He never found any fonts, just look at how he made the 1 and 2 out of the original 3 and how the 5 is literally an upside-down 2.

Please do not make fun of this multi-millionaire's photoshop of a t-shirt for a critic of a videogame whom he doesn't like on the internet.

Fat Shat Sings posted:That nagging feeling that keeps you coming back here to shout into the void is the internal voice you should be listening to. Also, if you're financially secure and it's genuinely disposable income you could blow the whole $4k on stupid bullshit. Take a vacation or buy some combination of dozens of AAA games, weed, firearms, overpriced alcohol, fancy meals out, Stephen Curry 'Chef' shoes, etc- whatever floats your boat! Most ways of irresponsibly spending that money are going to result in substantially more fun experiences and memories (and/or durable goods) than keeping it in Star Citizen will, even if we posit that it somehow magically becomes a really good game instead of a flaming trainwreck. You don't even need to feel bad, because the money will still be going to support people and organizations who provide your preferred entertainments. You'll just be actually getting the goods and services you're paying for instead of an IOU that looks iffier by the day. Even if you're entirely altruistic and just want to help people achieve their dreams, there isn't really a reason to keep the money in Star Citizen. They've been more than adequately funded through donations and you yourself seem to be confident they have mysterious additional funding sources. They don't need your $4k, but there are plenty of worthy individuals and charities that do. LGD fucked around with this message at 18:27 on Jul 11, 2016 |

Write back soon X never said he wasn't. i said the act of knowing that was treated like some giant secret when it was public knowledge. but you rallied around your leader like he brought you some kind of insider info. lol. on top of all that, what does it matter what he's doing? you don't understand game production, film production, the schedule(s) of those involved and, well, everything else. so saying anything other than "hamill is filing for SC" is irrelevant. all of the other words came together it a massive reality distortion field known as this thread.
