Backerkit cost us about 1% of our actual #FateDice take (~$700). $ value of add-ons it has helped us sell on top of pledges: ~$3400. #win
Guess it is pretty clear that kickstarter really needs to work on their options for that sort of thing. Sounds like Backerit is really working out for Evil Hat though. I suspect we'll see more and more big kickstarters going with it after hearing that.

From The Needs of the Few from that terrible kickstarter
quote:
All crew members, besides the Captain, have Secrets. Secrets are
painful memories of abuse that each crew member is hiding from their
peers. At the beginning of the game, everyone but the Captain writes
down 3 Secrets. These can be anything pertaining to the way your
character was abused. Try to think in terms of what the abuse was,
where it happened, how it felt; anything that can help synthesize the
experience into a short description. This description should be some
fairly specific behavior perpetrated by the Captain, like, “He raped me
in the shower” or “She climbed into bed with me and fondled my
genitals.”
During the game, you will be trying to hide these Secrets from the
other players while the Captain tries to get you to reveal them. At the
beginning of the game, write your Secrets down and hand them to the
Captain’s player.
Further on..
quote:
Figuring out another player’s Secret nets you a point of Confidence,
which is basically your character vicariously “getting off” on their fellow
crew members’ suffering. Specifically, it is your character receiving
some release from the fact that someone else broke down before they
did. Someone who spills the beans on their Secret allows the others to
put some distance between themselves and their own abuse (“Boy, I
thought I had it bad, but this other poor fucker...”).
I just don't know what makes someone think "Yah, this is the game I want to write..."
Edit: Oh yes, one of the players gets to play as the Captain (abuser) too and your entire goal is to get the PCs to reveal their abuse?

Not likely but I will take it under consideration.
How on earth do you get this from anything I have posted? I was questioning word choice in a blog post, which I assumed was written to raise awareness about an issue.
So you're going with a tone argument instead. It is no different than the people who say "Maybe if those blacks were more respectful, people would listen to them more."
"I know she's dealt with 20 years of this sort of thing but maybe if she was nicer about explaining it, it would achieve more than the previous 20 years of trying to be be polite or brush it off." - bongwhizzard 2016
