Hopefully, the OP is almost finished "resting" and will write a follow up post soon.

Quoted from metallik:Wow... it's amazing how such a diverse collection of people would all have interests that include pinball, God, self-help apps for when you get arrested, toothbrush training, etc...
Nice bust (again). WTF is up with VonnieD and these bots?
Yeah.... I was ready to give Vonnie D the benefit of the doubt before checking all these links.
Ooof....pretty brazen.
Scam written all over it..... tapping out.
So I'm walking on the beach enjoying an adult beverage..... Life is good..... and what am I thinking?
"Gotta get home to check the VD Pinball drama."
Geez.... I need a life.
Almost a month since the last VD posting. Probably just as well....he never convincingly addressed the bot controversy, or other oddities.
Hope no one lost their money on this.
Quoted from Wolfmarsh:Completely agree about being out of the pinball world. He would have to have amazing machines in the box ready to ship for anyone to give him money again.
Even that wouldn't motivate me to buy anything from him regardless of the theme.
He started out purposefully deceiving potential customers with fake bot bids on Kickstarter. I can't stand dishonest people and would never do business with VD or Wes.
Quoted from rotordave:This is the best/worst week in the history of Pinside!
Now, who's going to be the first to send Wes their preorder money?
Calling Iceman, are you there?
rd.
Nah....the bots ordered all of the machines.
Quoted from dantebean:But wouldn't you think Barry would come out and say "NO, not involved with these swizzlesticks"?
I can't remember where, but I think this was adressed on another thread? If I remember correctly, when asked about Vonnie D, Barry shrugged his shoulders.
I had a nightmare last night that I bought a Vonnie D game from Choggard and it was delivered by Kaneda.
Quoted from toyotaboy:wow, that's a new low. Can't even pay $5 for work. they had to of made at least that on the kickstarter.
They spent it all on puppet videos.
In light of the Alien fiasco (among others), I thought I'd remind those of this blast from the past.
(Wow...I forgot that Barry Oursler was hired for this dumpster fire, too.)
Quoted from toyotaboy:barry was never even contacted, i asked him in an interview on the pinball podcast. they lied to make themselves look legitimate.
Sounds about right.
I still have my Vonnie D T-shirt.
