I am astonished that there's any doubt about this, so far into things. There's definitely some people I've suspected.

Why don't you just say what it is in 3-4 sentences and scoop the poo poo of Derek.

Lets see here:

1- CIG steals other peoples ideas and call them their own. DSmart steals SA poster leaks and calls them his own.
2- CIG promises release dates and never delivers. DSmart promises exclusives, breaking news, and insider info and never delivers.
3- CIG produces a lovely, bug ridden "Alpha". DSmart... Just Posts.

Well there are multiple reasons why. First off is because I am not one to break confidence with anyone that lends me their trust. This is Derek's scoop and when HE decides its the right time then HE can share it. I don't need to be right about anything and I don't need to be famous for loving over someone that gave me their trust. But dammit if he didn't call this one. And it is bad.

No, Derek Smart was right has long left the playing fields of star citizen. It has become the name of countless ED ships, greetings in pvp games and pretty much the "leeeeeeroyyyyy Jeeeeenkins" of the space sim community

Like what do you think is going to happen? You're kind of implying that this is a class action suit, which can be filed by anyone who wants to check the appropriate box in a complaint sheet. It can't be a concluded class-action against CIG unless the class was some really tiny group, because if it had been in progress we'd have been hearing about it for months. A brand-new class-action might be bad news for them, or it might be nothing, it would depend entirely on the injuries claimed and what state they were filing it in.

All you're doing by spinning this is further eroding your credibility when it turns out to be nothing, or leaving everyone underwhelmed when it turns out to be something but not much.

You can’t really claim credit for calling something if you never actually specify what it is you’re calling.

Although Derek certainly tries, bless his heart

This isn't so much of something that he actually called. This is proof positive he HAS been sitting on some real info from real insiders.
