Meh. I don’t subscribe to his ‘two sides of a spectrum’ argument, mainly because I don’t think there’s equal footing between those searching for the truth and those attempting to obscure it.
To me the situation more resembles a nucleus of hardcore defenders and apologists surrounded by an Oort cloud of critics with varying angles, momenta, and eccentricities.
Derek, you need to get an agent and a book deal.
For the sake of the planet it better be an eBook.
This story is not over yet.
Then get a multi-million dollar advance, work on it forever and charge ridiculous amounts for preview pages.
I have both, and a publisher. The book was finished months ago, and I just keep updating the manuscript. I have refrained from publishing it because I want it to have an ending. But whale backers keep denying me that. So I’m holding fast. You guys know me by now, I have the patience of a mule, and the tenacity of a shark. So I’m going to wait them out. :)
That never crossed my mind. At least not last night when I updated that plan :)
That’s what sequels are for!
Are you going to sell readers JPEGs of the cover art while they’re waiting for you to finish and release it?
If you really want to go meta with this, start selling photos of the finished manuscript.
Dammit, Mike beat me!
Why not release the manuscript as is, and also sell JPEGSs of notes for future chapters.
Yes, I totally am. And each cover will be different and unique.
Oh you’re gonna love the latest hilarity. Trust me, it’s good.
Since it’s Sunday in the Sun, this is just a reminder that on Fri, Crytek filed their response to the recent MtD filed by CIG back on Sept 7th.
The arguments are PRECISELY as I had predicted in my article from earlier this month.
My article about this and the latest Star Citizen 3.3.5 fiasco will be up tomorrow at some point.
So, when is the next JPEG sale?
Surprised you haven’t been able to buy a death star equivalent yet.
With 6000 NPC ai’s you have to hire and give tasks.
NPCs? Oh no. You have to have 6,000 players pressing the buttons. And the game will crash if more than 7 are on a ship a the same time.
For $1000 a month Croberts will micromanage all 6000 himself. 'Cause that’s what he does best. :)
Star Citizen has a mention in the latest Full Frontal Nerdity Web Comic
My latest article in the farce is live
About a week ago on Sept 28th, CIG filed their opposition to CryTek’s second amended complaint. I haven’t covered it because they have a hearing coming up on Oct 10th in front of the judge, and I was going to wait and cover them both in a single article.
Also, as per the judge’s previous instructions, both parties got together and finally filed a Rule 26(f) discovery report/plan. Much to the chagrin of CIG of course, since they’ve been fighting to avoid discovery since January this year.
Also, as we only have insight to the project’s financials over in the UK, we have been waiting for both RSI (the parent shell company) and CIG (the UK development studio) to file their Dec 2017 financials. Earlier this week, RSI filed theirs. I will cover that in the same article sometime after the Oct 10th hearing.
