Does anyone else that thats a topless picture of her for her kickstarter picture?
I'm fairly certain that it is, yes.

And dare I say, not dreadfully attractive either. I'd even go so far as to say (and the toplessness of the picture is a contributing factor) that she even looks like someone who would think the sun is talking to them. Then again though, there's probably a pretty high rate of that among small board game projects anyway and there doesn't seem to be an epidemic of board game nerd mental breakdowns as far as I'm aware

Browsing her dA account has shown that it is indeed a nude pic :-[

Yea Nakies! \o/


In more serious tone, to bad she lost touch with the world, as she quite the productive artist in a lot of different mediums.


She has a twitter account, and is very interested in Jupiter.

On her Facebook she denies Schizophrenia exists, so I think that might be part of the problem.

5 squares per limb, if you raise the north orthoclase bridge before sacrificing one of them so they have a straight shot to the bottom of the chasm.

Have I mentioned my group's newest game?  Box of Knives!

Inspired by Movies, Box of Knives merges the fun of the
classic rpg, Russian Roulette, with the family fun of knives.
Providing you and your players with a genuine Box of Knives, this game
for 2-6 players allows you to experience the strategy and fun of
stabbing in your own living room.

What Critics are saying about Box Of Knives:
“Confusing and Eclectic!”
“Actually Dangerous!”
“No.”

Disclaimer: this is a joke project.  But yes, the six of us are probably insane.  The last time Box of Knives came up, we commented that taken out of context, we'd probably all get arrested.

Ha!  If that was true, then the first goal wouldn't be to remove ads.

Maybe it's Kickstarter as performance art?

I dont think they're being contradictory.

In order to do these other projects, and to free up that time so that they can do these projects requires them to remove the ads from the site. So ad removable is important means to the ends.

How long after a project is funded do they have to complete the project? Or is there no time limit?
And what happens if they fail to complete the project after it gets funded, do they have to give all the money back? what if they already spent it all trying to complete the project but only got it like 60% done, and now can't refund the money because it's all been spent?

No one needs to provide anything they promised on kickstarter.

Primarily because Kickstarter takes no responsibility for people not fulfilling their rewards.  They have no way to monitor or enforce such a rule if they did, nor any way to verify claims.
