Here's a few articles I found:"According to the research, only about 25 percent of projects ship on time, and the more a project exceeds its goal, the more delays it faces. So, projects like the Pebble and the Ouya have a good chance of facing delays if the data holds true. The delays are quite long on many projects. Only 75 percent of projects deliver their products eight months after they finish."<a href="http://www.gottabemobile.com/2012/07/17/only-25-of-kickstarter-projects-ship-on-time/" target="_blank">Overfunded Kickstarter Projects Face More, Longer Delays</a>"A number of things can go wrong; just as with startups receiving investment, sometimes things prove to be harder than anticipated–as with this project to create an independent games label, which dragged on for a year after the funding closed without updates from the backers. Eventually they got back in communication and told their backers they’d vastly underestimated how hard it would be to start a company."<a href="http://betabeat.com/2011/09/when-kickstarter-goes-wrong-were-419-backers-almost-taken-for-a-27637-ride/" target="_blank">When Kickstarter Goes Wrong: Were 419 Backers Almost Taken for a $27,637 Ride? | Betabeat</a>"Back in March, a project on Kickstarter for American-made flip flops “with an eye on the environment” raised $56,618 of its $12,000 goal in order to build a sandal-making factory in the small town of Geneva, New York.... The project has had repeated delays with sporadic updates from the founders. Almost 10 months later, many of the 1,091 backers are steaming.
