At least your position was coherent enough to be disagreed with, which is more than I can say for many of the participants on the Facebook page.As it turns out, FarSight just posted the reason for the 360's delay. It was a technical issue that, because there was no way FarSight could get the code size small enough to meet Microsoft's outdated requirements, FS had to convince MS's corporate bureaucracy to grant them an exception. Unsurprisingly, this took a long time. Thankfully, FS was successful, because if it wasn't, I'm not sure there would have been any way to get DLC at all for the 360.So your position that FarSight is behaving reprehensibly is without merit. Therefore, I continue to believe your threat and/or decision to withdraw from the kickstarter is illogical. And actually, I wouldn't have had an issue if you had just quietly taken your $100 or whatever out. But if you take a public stand while doing so, you have to expect someone to call you out on it. If I hadn't, someone else here surely would have.As for my defense of FarSight, it is by no means blind. I have questioned the wisdom of their statements and actions several times, here and elsewhere. (You can look earlier in this very thread if you want, and find my posts questioning whether the kickstarter was a good idea.) I guess I just have more patience with them then I would other companies, because they are relatively small and because they have attempted a very ambitious project that as far as I can tell no one else will take up if they fail, and I want to see this project succeed.And this is the Pinball Arcade Fans forum...did you really expect not to find partisan defenders here?!EDIT: Your most recent act of actual pettiness was duly noted. I still don't find you the worst person on the Internet. Have a nice evening.</blockquote>
