And just so you know, that photo above has been edited, those fake sacks and covering a bit of Surface Detail that was in the original post. (it was his proof of being paid money form CIG to report on the thread, thanks God it was not 'hard' facts)

Maybe people conning friends and family into pitching in to SC to rake up some of those sweet referral points? Nah, ain't nobody buying in at this point. More likely CIG is using the new referral system as a smoke screen to pump fake cash into the funding tracker.

cig has and is substantially demonstrating continual progress on the project. no lawyer let alone prosecutor in their right mind would even lift a finger to pursue a case against them.

it's also very easily demonstrable the economics and logistics of similar projects - plenty of precedent. the budget and timeline are well within any regular industry tolerances

i.e. nothing to see here from a legal perspective (except maybe the hello kitty thing o.o)

so don't speak of things which you don't understand. i.e. the law.

dear dancey cat attorney at law

if i find a spaceship just, like, sitting there with no-one nearby, is it an act of salvage or an act of piracy if i climb onboard and take it somewhere else?

edit:
addendum - does it change things if i am the proximate cause for the previous pilot no longer being nearby?

Dear lawcat,

I would like to infringe on the copyrighted mascot of a global media corporation in order to promote a scam. But I don't want to get sued! Approximately how many of the identifying details should I cover up with white ovals? And, if they do end up suing, can I avoid personal liability if I divorce the CEO just before the hammer comes down?

Sincerely,

Mandi Mardiner

Dude, I'm also a lawyer -a Mexican one- (we're always good because we get killed if we lose a case) and I can tell you that Peter Gabriel is a lawyer who happens to have a sterling reputation of operating with the utmost honesty and integrity for over 18 years. He just happens to be British, so he probably wears silly wigs instead of a decent sombrero, nobody is perfect.

On the one hand, they might take issue with repeated buying and refunding and your account must be in good standing to win.

On the other hand, its free money for the tracker and it doesn't count refunded money. And nobody knows where the referrals come from. CIG might even give out free points to streamers for all we know.
