[QUOTE="JoshuaKadmon, post: 24099, member: 1046"] I partially agree with those statements. Like I said previously, packing an updated PHoF table with the KS-funded one for $4.99 seems like a no-brainer to me, as it's a good way to incentivize the tables that many of us have played before. And even if you've gotten the FS one as a reward, the PHoF table would be a cheap addition to the collection purchased individually. As for FS grabbing licensed tables without a Kickstarter, that's their choice, just as it is our choice whether to donate without expecting special treatment. If FarSight snags a license without player contributions, I still expect them to price them the same as other tables (no more than $3.99, individually) in good faith with its loyal fanbase. Especially since, if that happened, they probably got the license significantly cheaper than TZ or STTNG, or they may end up using excess funds from a previous Kickstarter. For instance, if they exceed the STTNG goal by $10,000 and decide to grab the two Elvira tables for, say $20,000, I would definitely expect them to absorb that extra $10k even if it doesn't make sense to start a new Kickstarter on that amount. Or if profits jump after the release of TZ and STTNG, and FarSight makes the call to release The Getaway despite a ZZ Top license that costs $15k (again, a figure I pulled OOMA), let's hope they can still keep the release below $3.99 for players. Know what I mean? [/QUOTE]
