Personally their voices made me want to kill myself. They couldn't be more annoying if they tried.

Still better than PewDiePie though. Someone needs to get him how a microphone that won't devolve into static every time he shouts. Or just teach him to not shout. Or speak. Ever.

Here's a funny, so on altdevblogaday one of the blog posts was about how to do a successful kickstarter. It was practically nothing but a list of things that should be common sense. And then the kickstarter this person was doing? Tanked horrible, got 20 backers and raised about $191.

Actually a few of his points are not exactly correct but yeah most are just common sense.

Also are you SURPRISED his project failed... Here is the EXACT pitch

"A competitive puzzle game that takes classic gameplay to the next level with new features+online play"

Can you get anymore buzz words in there?

Competative, Classic gameplay, The Next Level, Online Play, New Features

It is actually embarassing.

Now if you will excuse me I have to start my Kickstarter page

"New Indie classic roleplaying game that takes next generation to the next level with online play, social features, and motion control"

You forgot "virtual reality" (or "augmented reality").  Also "3D" and "HTML5"

We should start a Kickstarter rewards service for Dwarf Fortress.

"$25: Get a FREE copy of Dwarf Fortress!"
"$50: Get a FREE short story or piece of original artwork along with your FREE copy of Dwarf Fortress!!"
"$100: All of the above, plus a FREE membership on the Bay12 Forums!!"
