4chan gave two thousand dollars to some charity event, where women are invited to pitch ideas for games, and whichever game wins in a vote will be developed with crowdfunding money, while all proceedings will go to charities and something like 8% for the idea ladies. Some people are mad because women aren't paid enough for their ideas. And also there is a very similar event that Zoe is behind. That's what I've heard.

The Game Jam she is pulling has no set date, rules or anything whatsoever but she is still happy getting money out it from pussywhipped tumblrites afaik

Is there anyone on any side of this who isn't acting like a shithead?

The people who are mounting any case against Quinn are at least partially a bunch of lovely meganerds gangpiling onto a fairly benign woman because they perceive her as a target they can actually hit without much fear of reprisal, while the people supporting her seem to be ensconced in a bubble of victimization and refuse to acknowledge that there's any sort of underlying issue here other than misogyny and internet bullying because this was started by a bitter ex and involves a woman's sex life.

It's just all a ploy for her to get free money out of betalords on twitter/tumblr that hope acting all nice to girls will get them laid one day

See if I got this right: Essentially this shitfest has exposed the fact indie game development and small-time game journalists have been taken over by a cabal of completely untalented nepotistic SJW hipsters who use their followers to stifle dissent, control internet discourse - aka wikipedia pages on unremarkable games/devs backed up by articles on websites by others in the clique, and reserve jobs/games publicity for themselves and their friends. Then they blackmail legitimate indie projects into 'donating' (read: giving them) money or they will blacklist them by calling their project racist/sexist/triggering.

Everyone who wants to get into the industry must not only avoid offending the inner circle, but apparently must actively worship at the SJ altar otherwise risk insinuations of racism/sexism/triggerism which in the SJW world is as good as a conviction by full jury trial if the accuser is more popular than you.

Members of this inner circle and their followers are now trying to spin this whole debacle as misogynist gamers attacking an innocent woman over her private life.

How on target it this?





When indie games started to take off some really great titles came out - this then rapidly turned into a poo poo faucet. Horrible games were getting far more publicity than they deserved - publicity that would sometimes entice me to buy the game before realizing it was a piece of poo poo (as evidenced by the long list of indie steam games I own with <1hr play time). While really good indie games wallowed out of sight, off the radar, never seeing the steam green light of day.

Wonder if these two things are connected?

Based on other people's notes on her videos, it appears she doesn't play games and instead browses the Longplays.org site to find games that have women in them. This lack of understanding led her to drop some points of praise on Bayonetta because she thought the main character was a strong single mother.

No, this is just something she and her stupid friends are trying to take credit for. Every other story posted about it is that literally every single person there realized it was some huge catastrophe and they all walked.

Instead of leaving it at that though Zoe and her little retard clique tried to spin it in a way that she single handedly brought it crashing to its knees with and I quote "an amazing speech that brings tears to people's eyes", and the very heads of Pepsi themselves were preparing to destroy all of them under the heels of their aluminum boots.

Seriously read the thing I posted a few pages back, it's less believable than a super hero's origin story. I'll try to find it to link again
