Well...he's banned at the moment, but that doesn't detract from the accomplishment.

Who's that belong to?..

NinaVain

$100+ average from the backers. That's fucking awesome.

Kick ass. Good for him.

BIG fan of the classic RAZOR had no idea he was behind this.
:thumbsup:thumbsup:thumbsup

Well done. Good for him. Hope to see it happen.:thumbsup

I've got a few projects that I've been thinking of getting setup on there. I haven't really read all the terms, but I'm guessing you can only do one?

Nice work

Very nice, good for him

If only those idiots knew him like we do. If they knew how fucking looney toons he really is, they wouldn't have given him a dime. It just goes to show you that there's a sucker born every minute.

This is inspiring, because I'm working on a graphic novel.

None of those people give a shit about what he posts on GFY. :2 cents:

i've got a success story also on Kickstarter :thumbsup

Hey that's pretty nice!

that is great kickstart

Massive kudos on a great idea, well done and I hope it earns you an absolute fortune :thumbsup

out of interest, what happens to the surplus pledged funds?

Strippers? More strippers? Makin it raaaaiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiin?

Good question, I was wondering that also (and agree it is a great idea also).

Be interested also in knowing how long it takes to charge a completely dead phone from zero to full? Didn't see the answer to that on the website.

[Total thread derail complete now :) ]

It goes to the person behind the project. That's the whole point. The people that pledged now get all the extra incentives he had for meeting and exceeding set goals...on top of the initial offering of book.

Great idea?

They pretty much suckered people into overpaying for something you can buy already from China for $5 a pop.

Great job, sure...but great idea, I don't think so.

shit I wish kickstarter accepted non US people...I have projects coming out of my ass...

There are lots of non-US people who are accepted, but they need to have an account with Amazon Payments, but there's Kickstarter UK too for europeans.
For example the following project funded $157,000 (from $23,000 goal asked) is by an italian citizen friend of mine, he live in hong kong:

There are guides:

Perhaps it takes a loon to create good toons...

If that is his work then he is quite the artist. Many artist have been thought of as crazy, so perhaps it's part of the creative process.

good for him!
good to see, long term there is way more opportunity there then here.:2 cents:

what forces people who do this to follow through and not just take the money and go on vacation or something?

good for him :)

Free the banned !
