Hollywood and Licensing (Friday, 7:00 PM) – Brought to you by the guy who has a license out there that will probably never, ever, actually get made into a movie
How to Be the Best G.M. (Saturday 1:00 PM) – from the guy who doesn't even follow his own rule set when he does GM, but, really only does that at cons anymore (and even not that much there)
World Building (Saturday at 5:00 PM) – From the guy who has allegedly "borrowed" ideas from multiple freelancers, made a few minor changes, and slapped his own name on it!
Pen and Paper Game Design (Sunday at 1:00 PM) – From the guy who, again, doesn't follow his own rules set, and has a rules set that is filled with holes so big the Titanic could have missed the iceberg, and has people arguing about various rules interpretations for 20+ years (on the same rules)

Blame your partners in RRT for the issues while they aren't allowed to rebut and defend themselves..... Pretty standard business practice in multiple industries... though I imagine it won't go over well if Ninja Division actually bothers to read it. All told, that Kevin is only NOW starting to point fingers just lends credibility to the people who were saying that the delays and the many quality issues are all Palladium's fault. Now he just looks like he's casting about desperately for somebody else to blame. (Kind of like HG whenever one of their projects implodes... a mix of "it's all the other guy's fault" and "the stars were not right".) Blame RRT for delays on books even though you are the one that said at the beginning of last year that RRT should not affect book production not to mention the fact how you, Kevin, waxed on about how much of a roll your were on and the hundreds of pages you wrote over a few weeks..... Because, hey, if you've got a tailor made excuse why not use it even if it makes absolutely no goddamn sense. Blame your partners again about missing Adepticon and then depend on us to tell you what Cons you shold attend because apparenltly you are too lazy to find out for yourselves.... Oh ho... I know why this is going to hell. Palladium is trying to copy Harmony Gold's business practices. Stay Classy PB *thumbs up* Nonsense, these excuses are of such high caliber that they have to wear a monocle with their bib overalls and straw hat.

Oh well, it was pretty much inevitable that someone would abuse the Kickstarter system (because it's nothing if not rich in the potential for abuse)... it'll be interesting to see if the Washington state Attorney General can make the charges stick. Despite the Robotech RPG Tactics Kickstarter having turned into a veritable cornucopia of fuck-ups and the companies running it being an interesting assortment of well-meaning incompetents presided over by a pack of venomous fuckwits at Harmony Gold who are so despised they've managed to become persona non grata in their own industry, I don't think it'll come to legal action. They might deliver appallingly late... at a level of quality that Chinese sweatshops would consider embarrassingly poor... and ultimately provide the backers with a game which has no future development potential and minimal resale value... but they almost certainly will give the backers exactly what they've promised to give them. Eventually*...
* But only if Kevin doesn't get caught up in bitching about the weather, lose himself observing the habits of the local wildlife, wax poetic about going to conventions, waste time writing murmurs, catch the sniffles, read too much bad press about his faults, run out of nondairy coffee creamer, fall victim to the mummy's curse, walk under a ladder, have a black cat cross his path, break a mirror, spill the salt, spot a shiny object, or see his own shadow.

My question is.... How hard is it to make this color chart? We've heard about it for --months--. There's only so many damn colors. They act like they're decoding the Rosetta stone or some shit.
