Aye, Kickstater is not of itself 'stupid'. It does take a certain amount of responsibility to engage with. Sadly, a fair few seem to not understand the role of an investor, and the risks it takes. Back to the OP -- for the folks aok with it. Other than securing sales, what reason is their to...

Oh aye. Totally a conspiracy! :D Not a comment on business practice and marketing strategy. We talking or fighting?

Blackmail: force (someone) to do something by using threats or manipulating their feelings. As in 'emotional blackmail'. Perhaps you were thinking of the other meaning? The practice is based on manipulating the emotions of the would-be customer. If you care that much about the product. If...

Oh joy. What's next, micro transacti...... ..oh. Why must folks sign up early to enjoy something, hopefully, of quality? ''But you don't have to! It's a way of showing su.....''. No. No it really isn't. It's a cheap psychological trick based on manufactured scarcity. Blackmail, even...

3. You've made a friend. A persistent, relentless, mosquito/fly (as applicable). With a high pitched hum it strikes without warning before fading from sight, only to pester another party member. It's antics make concentration a chore and threaten to distract you as you adventure forwards.

I'm sure many things annoy me about my players, as much as I'm sure many things about me annoy my players. But ya know? We've been friends for over a quarter of a century, and played D&D together from the start. Across jobs, countries, marriages, the whole kaboodle. Best thing I find is to...
