Why don't you talk about your experiences running data across blockades of a billion seamlessly integrated capital ships that were hundreds of miles long each full of players shooting each other between server meshes? And then how you ended the night repairing your ship using different metals you acquired from various planets using your repairing laser systems and dedicated repair ship? Because I'm dying to tell you about it but I don't think I have it in me tonight.

You know if you want a tutorial on some program, your only source will be a crappy youtube video with a hard to understand accent, with too quiet audio and a desk fan blowing into the microphone as they painfully describe what you need to know (or not) as slowly as humanly possible? That is also how I feel when listening to Chris Roberts speak. How people gave him money is beyond me.

The Titanic posted:Why? I wanted to trim back this to the initial ‘why?’, because it’s actually illegal to print material that misstates their financial posiition while they take payments based on future realization. _illegal_, not just ill-advised. An admission in court that it’s fun-accurate opens the door for deceptive practices, and gives the fence-mounted whale a hell of an out.

I guess we'll see if they zero in on this then. I see it like one of those money thermometers at a school or a fund raising campaign. Is it 100% accurate? Well obviously not. But it's probably representative of where they think they are. I want this to go up in flames, with the great Disney ending where CR and his group have to publicly admit they mislead everybody and that he's hugely inept and flat out lied to the world. I don't believe this is going to happen, but one can still hope for the best.

School funding thermometers generally stop well short of millions, don’t come with a rate card and tend to be -accurate-*. It’s one of those things i’m watching for, because it’s the coverup, etc. If they do catch anything from it, it would be a slapped wrist or a fine, but it would be an indicator or ‘intent’. * and ‘finite’, right now, they’re just taking money with no forecast realization date and no real promise.

The fraud charge is gonna be tough - but not impossible. It depends where they decide to draw the line. If you represent yourself as a doctor and you're not, it's pretty clear - because becoming a doctor is highly regulated and tracked and has oversight and committees. If you claim you're an architect it's similar. If you claim you're a plumber it gets hazy, but you can check if someone is licensed, bonded, insured etc. If you claim you're a game developer and then steal $200 million as you fail all over the place, is it fraud? There are no official regulated hurdles to clear to claim you're a game developer. I can make a tic-tac-toe game right now on my phone and claim the title. Apparently after I do that, I can go online and tell the world I'm going to make a game and only Rockstar has a chance to catch me because I'm using the power in the machines to create tech never been done before because the publishers were too scared and nobody thought of it. And that, evidently, isn't fraud because "game development is hard?" It's a really tough call. Chris is shades of stupid rarely seen before, and he definitely thinks he's something he's not. But does that absolve him, much like he absolves himself?

If you represent yourself as a doctor and you're not, it's pretty clear - because becoming a doctor is highly regulated and tracked and has oversight and committees. The customers she served with her illusory technology? gently caress you I guess. To bring this back to Crobbers: for a prosecution, can they prove that he, in his heart of hearts, know that this project he was selling an impossible task? Did he believe that the sizzle reel handed to him by Crytek oh so many years ago could never be a game, hid that fact, and then called everyone to pledge for an illusory goal that could never be reached? Is that something someone can, without doubt, prove in a court of law that Crobbers at some point switched from visionary to outright fraud? That's a very high bar to pass. That's harder to prove from a consumer perspective (which is why Theranos was attacked in the way it was, and also because we're in a nightmare oligarchy) because well, here's a product, isn't it great? What it doesn't work? It's still in alpha, sorry, here's a partial discount on your next Theranos testing service. Is it fraud to try and fail if you believe you can still do it in your delusional little bear mind? That's a genuine question of law that needs to be answered before you can even approach a grand jury with charges. And that's no, because trying without intent to deceive people about the fact you're trying to make a game lacks the requisite elements of the crime.

I wanted to pick out this one part to ask this question: is there a difference between it being a truly impossible task, or it only being impossible for Chris Roberts because once he smelled money he kept increasing the scope until the project became impossible? Wing Commander 2014 wasn't exactly a pie-in-the-sky concept.
