Really, a hype page for a Kickstarter he's planning on making? We're getting dangerously close to "Kickstarter to make a Kickstarter" here.

Generating hype prior to a Kickstarter is actually a good idea.  You need an audience that already wants in on what you're doing before you launch the Kickstarter, so you can maximize your initial funding.

Hey guys, I made this site because I need to build interest in a Kickstarter I'm planning. I'll use the funds to create a second web site - a deep, immersive one that will draw a lot of attention to a Kickstarter I'm launching several months after the launch of the site. With that kickstarter, I'm going to make a video game.

Since this has been brought back I'll say 2 words; Potato salad!

Potato Salad Kickstarter Guy May Have to Swallow $21,000 Tax Bill

The Guy Who Raised $US70,000 For Potato Salad On Kickstarter Wants To Give Money To Charity, But Kickstarter's Rules Won't Let Him

[SirAaronIII]

Now he's trapped in a potato salad prison of his own design.

I'd give them a $, but they only take £, and $1.70 is almost half a slice of gourmet pizza.

This is why we can't have nice things.

[Leafsnail]

I don't see why the tax is a problem, even if he's losing 30% of it to tax he will have still made a bunch of money.

That is of course if he doesn't just decide to hire a band or something for his party to spend the money.

[Criptfeind]

Yeah. Taxes and having too much money doesn't seem like a issue, after all he can just pocket the excess in theory as a profit after the party can't he? Then do as he wants with it. Although, actually reading his kickstarter rewards, I'm not sure how he thinks he can send a single bite of salad to everyone. And how he is going to fit in like 350 people into his kitchen. How he is going to add like 800 different ingredients to the salad. Even saying like three thousand peoples names as he makes this stuff.

[Leafsnail]

Those are challenges, but on the other hand he'll be swimming in cash.  A decent events manager could probably deal with them.

[Glloyd]

I can't get over how dumb that potato salad thing is. There's so many awesome independent bands who have kickstarters up for legitimate things, and they don't get any money because they fall short of their modest goal by a couple hundred dollars. This guy gets $70000 for a fucking potato salad. People have more way money than brains it seems.

Dude, it's a fucking potato salad. What's not to love?
