@Bonifratz"How rich are these people that they can just drop 700$ without investigating the project for 3 minutes?"
I assume the backers who support it now right away after the kickstarter went live came there via Angel's mailing list - i.e. they looked at the video before the doubts were raised and now jump in to get the best deal, without doing further research.
That's why I think it's a very laudable effort to repost the links again and again in the kickstarter comments after Angel reposts his Spam(;
latest comment by Angel on kickstarter:
Our project will cause a great change in the world of chess,
it will create a business of millions of dollars,
due to the great commercial interests and the loss of positioning
that will mean for the competition, we are suffering an attack
by the competition and its partners.
They want to boycott our project, so they pay $ 1 and make a negative comment
that discourages other sponsors.
There are few people wanting to damage our product, but they make a lot of noise. Please, ignore their lies, all the doubts they have sown have been cleared in our videos:
Incredible, the guy says they have 250 in stock (20 sold) but they cannot deliver until November. Thismakes no sense put some people just don't read
@Panagrellus Yeah I guess that makes sense. Still folks, do some double checking when you invest that much money!
@jlasaintcyr To be fair, I think what that means is that the 250 first backers get the special offer price. It's not saying that those 250 boards are already made. (Of course we all know that they never will be.)
40 people have bought a chess set (including 3 contributors that have bought 2)
I love the single Matt's comment - around 100#
"LMAO"
:) its like a soldier saying FUGAZI to a COM :)
Soon the kickstarter will have more comments than this forum thread.
I just want to make one automatic board for the people - to make them smile again... meanwhile check out the "Wobble Chess" :) - it also has a blitz option - so the pieces are auto-centered... but you need 4 hands and they just look crazy as hell.
On Thingiverse you can find somebody made a 3D printer project of this set - called Wobbly Chess - not sure who was first.
Cheers mate.
"Our project will cause a great change in the world of chess."
Without a doubt.
What happens when the 50000 is reached, will more backers be allowed?
