    So it's 3 months late and 50% done.

    Quoted from MrBally:

    I'm surprised they didn't mention a circuit board problem. Maybe they will at the end of September.

    Ouch!

    2024? You are going to need to extend that.

    #608 6 years ago

    Oh, in that case. Update in 4, 3, 2, 1. Probably won't happen.

    This update brought to you by the letters n and o.

    Quoted from puck:

    Are you in on the book?

    No I saw that coming. But... if it happens I sure wouldn't mind picking one up.

    Quoted from JoeDP:

    We believe the design process will be around 8 weeks for a book this size.

    8 weeks. That's 2 weeks times 4.

    Quoted from Billy16:

    Ha! Word has it the newest batch of interns and the fourth graphic designer are just about ready to begin some serious prepping to get ready to start working on the book...

    Quoted from xTheBlackKnightx:

    If it does get funded, people will lose their money when the person goes on vacation and buys a new car.
    Don't be hornswoggled, unless the money does not matter to an individual.
    This is not a "good deal".
    Do people realize over 10-30% (category dependent) of all KS funded projects completely fail?
    The baseline average is 9% across all categories of projects.
    Those that do happen often are massive disappointments (rewards or objectives changes), or are grossly late in production by years?
    Please pass.
    I don't hate anything here in this concept, just the method of creation.
    It is just bring non logical.

    Black knight called this one.

    but we are very near the finish

    Quoted from cooked71:

    I posted this on their FB page about a month ago and it’s still there. Shows how much they update or check their FB page. D*ckheads.
    [quoted image]

    "We did it"

    They're just bragging on hitting his multiple vacation expenses goal.

    #1381 5 years ago

    Some take up to an hour. Well... that means it should have been a week after the goal was reached.

    Joe insists the book is almost done......

    Maybe we can take all his pictures and make a nice vacation picture book? At least he's involved with that.

    Quoted from ronlisa:

    Same here. This is more like the kind of updates they should have been doing to ease us supporters. Maybe we'll end up very happy with the out come after all.

    I think "....." meant sarcasm not approval.

    Someone should tell him that if he makes a "good" book that they might actually sell MORE than just the kickstarter amount then he would have more money for his vacations and women.

    Quoted from Rondogg:

    All the people saying it's "never going to happen they just stole our money", they're quiet now. That's a good thing.

    Quoted from J85M:

    So it’s now a picture book?

    Writing is hard.

    Quoted from LesManley:

    "Either way, our pledge to you is that we will have this book done before the end of this year! No matter what!" - Paperflock
    They only said they pledge to have the book DONE by the end of this year...not that anyone would have a physical copy in their hands by then. If/when the book is finally "done" (as in editing, photos, layout, commentary, etc. are complete and finalized) they could still take forever to finally get it printed and shipped out to all the backers. No one is getting anything before the end of this year.

    No read carefully, is says the end of the year, not end of this year.

    Quoted from Manimal:

    I am not saying this was necessarily a con...I think the intentions started out well, but lack of foresight and greed got the best of this project,

    No, it was a con alright.

    Quoted from J85M:

    Cavemen could have chiselled this book into the rock faces of a cave faster than it’s took Joe to get this book put together

    Hey... cut Joe some slack. The little bird in his camera died. You know how expensive little camera birds are?
