When does this KS begin?
Yep, in the words of Philip J Fry "Shut up and take my money!"
When does this KS begin?
Out of curiosity, are you guys excited for the kickstarter, or the table?
I'm excited for the table, loathe kickstarters. But I've seen in past posts where people are positively excited for kickstarters, which boggles my mind, which made me wonder.
I for one would like to hear your rant.I'm never excited for a Kickstarter - I have a tendency to think that passing the begging bowl is a horrible way to fund anything. (Long, separate rant, which I'll spare you.)

I don't have any money, man. And whatever I have I need to put in my cookie jar for Season 6 and Stern Pinball Arcade (wishful thinking?). But I'll pray for Doctor Who. How much is that worth?This has nothing to do with your comment, but I wanna make a deal with you. I'll pledge $10, to start off. I haven't worked out the details yet, but we could make a competition out of it, going up $5 at a time.

Isn't that how most things get funded (Films, Book Advances etc.)? I guess it's called investment, but it's the same thing...
I'm with you, but I'd be more specific: with investments you are expecting, though with less than 100% certainty, a cash profit. People might say that with kickstarters you do get a return: the pinball table, the movie, etc.Ah, but with those things you are expecting a return too.

On the contrary, I found it very interesting and sound. Thank you for sharing!You'll be disappointed because, as usual, my thinking is all muddled, with a lot of logical and emotional reactions all swearing at each other.
----EccentricFlower, it's clear many companies are getting creative with Kickstarters...but why begrudge them? The economy is precarious, moreso for pinball apps! As long as they find a way to keep going, I'll keep buying the tables and playing.
The guys from Bro, do you even pinball did a pretty good video of Dr. Who.
