How many people would we need to change STAR to SCAM? It's only two letters so I'm sure we could keep that up at least.

I tried again but it put a white one on the letters making them unreadable, I'll keep trying to contribute, hopefully I get better at some point. All I can really do is stick with it

Also, on the subject of nostalgic space gaming, the original Starcraft and Brood War (with mods for modern OSes) is being released for free by Blizzard. This is not a rumor. I have it downloaded and installed.

This is nice of blizzard to do. Especially considering they tend to cling to stuff forever, and the original Diablo was still full price 20 years later it seems.

They're using the dummy accounts they use to manipulate upvotes/downvotes to build the SC logo.

You can click on a pixel and see who placed it. Many are accounts that haven't posted for months/years or have no posts at all.

I can't imagine anything more stupid that fighting against scripts for something so pointless.

Let's just laugh at this and not put any effort into screwing with something the Citizens might actually get to see at some point.

It's the AI being afk due to his mum making him do the dishes and the AI using hacks like a human because the game is gay and he only plays it to troll people.

The AI is already human like.

Report the "normally in-active" accounts to Reddit admin, who'll ban the alts and any primary accounts they can match up.

Trying to fight backers over something like this is impossible because it's an expression of their desperation anyway.

Even if it weren't a pointless pixel art image somewhere most normal people are either going to not care, or give up after a reasonable amount of time.

The backers that subconsciously know they can't make their dream game happen through sheer force of will jump at any opportunity like this to "make a difference." So the only way to "win" against them in this virtual tug of war is to be crazier than they are about Star Citizen and Samizdata/Derek Smart can't do it alone.
