So now possibly this was sabotage. Interesting...

Do I have my suspicions on whom I think did it? Yes, I do. But they are suspicions. Strong suspicions, but suspicions nonetheless. And I will not make claims based purely on suspicions.

It was indicated that Ouya did it from the beginning. At least that is what I gathered. Unfortunately, I do not believe we will ever find out. I just do not get why Gridiron is still going. They aroused more suspicion than Elementary.

I still would not hesitate to support them if they ran another one. Just my opinion.

I feel the guilty party would not be Ouya, it would be a competitor with its own gaming project who hopes to get some of that million from Ouya. A million is not much if they can match up to $250,000 per project. That means technically only 4 successful projects could easily get all of Ouya's money.

It had to be obvious, hence all the celebrity photos and names. If you were to create that many fake backers on your own project, would you make it so obvious so anyone can easily match them all up? I would not. That alone warrants me giving them the benefit of the doubt.

Sometimes conspiracy theorists are right, rmt. Look at Area 51.

I see you removed your desire not to be one. wink I never thought you gave that impression. Just examining all the angles.

Yes! wink

You were too quick Gil, you were not supposed to read all the changes. I always immediately rework my posts after posting, and don't indicate it is edited because I assume no one would have the time to read the changes.

I like your theory better than mine rmt. I believe yours makes a lot of sense. What a shame... frown

Thanks Dennis, I posted the link to the statement some posts up on the 9th.
I am sorry that your funding came to an end and I hope you are able to finish your game.
