Howdy howdy howdy have I got a deal for you. Do you spend a lot of your time thinking about your own demise? The inexorable march of time towards some finite oblivion? Do you find yourself saying, "I wish there were some way to dispose of my lifeless corpse other than hiring a fat man to hurl it over a waterfall?"

Now let me ask you, do you think there just aren't enough Christian symbols here in the good ol' USA? You drive past the whattaburger and see the big statue of Jesus waving at you electronically, but it's not really enough is it?

Well, buddy, I've got both your problems solved in one neat little package: A giant gently caress off cross in the middle of the Nevada desert where we can put your goddamn bones when you die!



Great Cross Alliance posted:

The Great Cross itself will enclose a volume of 8.6 million cubic meters. It will be 3,000 feet (914 meters) long, and 1,845 feet (562 meters) across. Its members will be 570 feet (174 meters) wide, and 183 feet (56 meters) high, to the top of the masonry structure. At the top of the glass dome, the structure will be 213 feet high.

Great Cross Alliance posted:

The project must reach a critical level of funding before construction can begin. This level is set at the sale of 400 spaces. If this level is not reached by April 1, 2014 the project will be cancelled. If this happens, all spaces purchased and all donations of over $100 will be refunded. If the 400 space mark is reached, purchasers will be notified of the date that remains can be accepted.


So they need to sell only 400 internment spots to gauge the interest, and then can get to building some half mile long by 1,845 foot wide structure that's 213 feet high in the middle of the desert. Their cheapest plots are 4,000$ and their most expensive are 30,000$. So they're planning on building this for between 1.6 million and 12 million dollars. That seems reasonable.


Hold onto this photo for posterity - it'll be fun to see how much their faces have changed in the Dateline special when the FBI finally catches up to them in Turks and Caicos:

Some of the game demos people have created based on the Molydeux Twitter are really awesome too.


"Italian Rocket Riders" is fun (you drive in cars that can only go 0mph or 10,000mph while children walk around the racetrack)

And "Nebulous Hero" is a GREAT game where you unlock the instructions in order to find out that you've been doing everything incorrectly.

Quidditch would be really easy to make into a real sport. There were a few positions right?

You got the dudes that just gently caress poo poo up right? Okay they're on dirtbikes with paintball guns - only rule is they can't stop to shoot. You get paintballed, you go to the penalty box for 1 minute.

Then you've got the sort of forwards, those guys are on dirtbikes but they don't get paintball guns, they get hockey sticks, and there are three hockey pucks out at any given time.

The goalie is self explanatory and yeah the dudes who chase the gold ball, they get no dirtbikes, have to keep one hand on a broom, and the golden ball is an RC helicopter covered in razor blades to make it interesting. The helicopter is randomly programmed to fly in a random pattern. Also unlike quidditch, catching the golden ball doesn't automatically end the game because that's the loving stupidest rule in the history of sports jesus christ. You catch the golden ball, either you get someone out of a penalty box or put someone from the other team in a penalty box. Or gently caress it, you just laugh at the rear end in a top hat whose hands are bleeding like hell now.

This would ruin a grass field, so put this poo poo on a concrete slab and you're good to go.

Who remembers the StunGun iPhone case that would deliver an underpowered current to an attacker mostly just annoying them like a slightly amped up joy buzzer?

Well, would it surprise you to know that they're not very smart?

http://www.detroitnews.com/article/20131028/LIFESTYLE/310280011/Company-promotes-stun-gun-phone-case-here-though-s-illegal-own?odyssey=tab

The Detroit News posted:

Company promotes stun gun phone case [in Detroit] - though it's illegal to own it

In [Detroit, Flint, and Oakland], “We noticed there was a rise in crime,” says John Yoon, the Baton Rouge company’s friendly and helpful publicist. “We wanted to let them know there was a solution to provide locals with personal protection.”

...

That also assumes you could buy a Yellow Jacket. In Michigan, only people with concealed pistol licenses and special training may own electro-muscular disruption devices.

Furthermore, they must be purchased from an in-state dealer rather than a website like yellowjacketcase.com.

Further furthermore, while Tasers are legal here, stun guns aren’t, because they don’t dispense bar-coded confetti that identifies the user the way Tasers do.

Still, we’ve been selected as a hot spot for the Yellow Jacket rollout.

“I’ve heard, you know ... (Detroit) can be dangerous,” Yoon explains. “A lot of vacated homes.”

At least the guy from Louisiana is honest. I heard there are black people in Oakland and Detroit, better sell my stun guns there!

[THE FOLLOWING IS A DIRECT QUOTE FROM THE KICKSTARTER. QUOTE TAGS OMITTED FOR QUOTABILITY]

LIFE IS FEUDAL offer a host of incredible features making our game truly unique! It offer something for everyone, and the diverse and varied gameplay is enhanced by our continued commitment to adding new and cool stuff over time! Backers of this campaign will enjoy unlimited hours of adventuring, and very few players will ever be good enough, or skilled enough, to explore the rich and massive environment! Here is a quick breakdown of our games main features:

Massive Seamless Open-Ended World. LIFE IS FEUDAL features a massive 441 square kilometer open seamless world! Our game has island-like continent with different biomes such as plain, dense forest, steppe, desert, tundra and marsh, for example. All of the terrain is untouched nature inviting players to settle or invade! The continent is scattered with rivers, lakes and bays, and even has a roaring volcano!

  • Free Terraforming & Tunnel Building. LIFE IS FEUDAL features 100% free terraforming and tunnel building! Dig tunnels, mines and moats, and expand them in all dimensions almost without limitations! You can raise and lower ground levels with a land-fall effect. Substances include soil, rock, granite, ore veins, clay, sand, and many more!
  • Free Modular & Predefined Construction of Buildings & Objects. LIFE IS FEUDAL features more than 100 buildings and objects! Most buildings can be placed anywhere with free rotation and are predefined. Fortifications are modular allowing you to design and build your own unique castles with pattern, towers, gates etc. You can even place palisade walls and fences.
  • Rich Crafting System. LIFE IS FEUDAL features a crafting system with more than 500 recipes, including but not limited to mining, smelting, forging, logging, carpentry, construction, masonry, architecture, farming, taming, procuration, cooking, tailoring, fishing and hunting! Crafting is enriched through clever use of mini-games.
  • Almost Unlimited Number of Unique Alchemy Combinations. LIFE IS FEUDAL features over 40 billion alchemy combinations unique to each player! And unlike other online games you need to learn, experiment and create your very own unique combinations. Alchemy is not just a matter of character skill, as it has strong emphasis on players spending time and resources on creating good recipes and combinations.
  • Innovative Mini-Games Concept. LIFE IS FEUDAL features a plethora of mini-games that adds immersion and fun to the medieval crafting process, and allows gamers to play isolated parts of the game directly from a browser! Mini-Games offer an opportunity to improve on a given craft, and rewards players with bonuses.
  • A No-target Combat System. LIFE IS FEUDAL features an advanced no target combat system, where combat can be experienced in either 1st or 3rd person view. There is no lock-on, and players must carry out individual actions such as swing, stab and block, for example.
  • Physics-Based Melee & Ranged Combat. Physics come into play as well, as does the quickness of the attacker and defender. A swift use of a sword at a high velocity causes extensive damage.
  • Realistic Player Damage System. With fractures and bleeding wounds you can create different unique combat tactics.
  • Full Loot. Added thrill and excitement of your adventures! Also when players die, loss of skill occurs by an alignment factor at random.
  • Skillcap & Statcap Systems. These will allow you to make almost any combination of skills that you think you need to have. You can design your own unique class and be like no one else in our world. That is the spirit of a true Sandbox!
  • Private Property & Land Claims. Grab some land for yourself or for your guild too. Divine law will protect your property standing on the claim from aggressors.
  • Complex Food & Cooking System. Cooking is no longer a secondary or non-existent skill. Being a good cook, who knows a lot of complex and tasty recipes, means that you and your friends or clients will be better fed and will have a skill raise bonuses!
  • Great selection of Medieval Weapons with Unique Combos & Effects. Up to 55 different medieval tools of killing and hurting. With their own combinations of directional attacks that will cause some harmful effects on your opponent, like knockdown, fracture, bleeding wound, crippled movement and many others!
  • Great selection of Tools that can be used as Militia Weapons! If you got jumped by some ragged bandit in the middle of your crops field, smash his face with a shovel! That will teach him a lesson.
  • Double Health & Stamina Bars. Double health and stamina bars represents your body status better. Players can be knocked out or dead, can be temporary out of breath or totally exhausted.
  • Original Battle Formation System. In massive battles, react accordingly to the combat situation and provide your Unit with a certain bonuses. But to receive these bonuses Unit members must be well organized and always keep formation.
  • Innovative Battle System. Battles will happen on an instanced server, without interference of 3rd parties, without senseless obstacles and with full statistic records. That is how history of feudal wars will be tracked!
  • Classic Siege System. As you have seen it in many other online games. Massive clash of players for a one certain castle.
  • Wild Animals Tracking & Hunting. You can find different tracks of different animals and follow them.

It is difficult to motivate people to work when you are not able to pay them. Most people on the team got paid nothing the entire time, and I was only paying Mike and Zach about $250 a month, in addition to covering their housing expenses, because that’s all we could afford. I gradually reduced that to $0, since I was getting little or no output from them. Our situation was even harder because they were living with us. I kept asking them to work harder, and we would have weekly meetings to discuss it, but nothing worked. Paying people gives you leverage, so I do not expect to work with anyone else in the future until I can afford to pay them.

This is right after he buries these people in the previous paragraphs by saying they suck at coding and design, and it turns out his salary to them is 250$ a month, until he decides to pay them 0$ a month for not working hard enough.
