That stripper was really into me. Also, that bartender was very sympathetic. And the car salesman worked very hard to make sure I got the best possible deal. He even threw in the undercoating for free! What a guy.

It is just a little bit of awesome forum magic. I fell for the trick "as the thread's best poster" in my first few months on SA.

Pay for a 2nd account and click the link if you really want to know which account is definitely a Derek alt.

Well I was about to buy heaps of internet space ships after just selling up my share portfolio for phat profits, after hearing how I could make a 400% return on them once the game is out (should be out in a year to 18 months, Chris Roberts is a gaming legion you know).

On well, guess I'll have to just settle for the safety of Bitcoins.

If anyone here has some great investment advice, please let me know. (Am I hearing talk that there could be some Goon Group investing in the Egypt building sector? Go on guys, let me in)

I cant believe that they are still using the whole "The more money you give us the more people we can throw into this grinder" excuse. At this point its not the amount of people you have. Its all about the quality and how long you can keep them working. Throwing more bodies into the issue wont fix Star Citizens problems.

So let's say we have idiots 1, 2, 3 and 4

Idiot 1 buys in for $100, signs up idiot 2.
Idiot 2 buys in for $100, signs up idiot 3. Idiot 1 gets $15 bonus.
Idiot 3 buys in for $100, signs up idiot 4. Idiot 2 is up $15, idiot 1 is now only up $12.50.
Idiot 4 buys in for $100, has no friends. Idiot 3 is up $15, idiot 2 is up $12.50 and what the gently caress happens to idiot 1? Does he get back a portion of idiot 2's referral bonus since idiot 2 was hosed over by idiot 3? If so, idiot 1 is now up $13.125 because why not, this makes perfect sense

Is that CIG art? Looks suspiciously like Warframe stuff.


I think this is a Warframe cat, so technically it's Star Citizen future concept art when they get around to Archering it.

We're not buying rocket cars and moon boots, though we certainly could if we felt the need or the inclination. In fact, we're more about- what's that? Oh that's real cool Chris. Like I was saying we're not buying moon boots,

When you blow the money on WWII furniture, tons of useless motion capture, tons of motion capture hardware, tons of overseas flights, tons of vacations per year to exotic lands and ride boats there... you really, really got to think up something totally outrageous and stupid to make the dumb stuff you really are buying seem logical in comparison.

"Trips to Italy... yeah sure... but a moon boot or clown shoes oh hahaha no no silly person we'd never waste your money on silly stuff like that! Haha! Did you hear this guy? Moon boots and space rocket cars! Oh haha.. ouch! Caught myself on the rivet of this WWII fight airplane wing desk!"

If they have to say anything other than ' the game will be done in xxx months' there is obviously a problem
