The reason they're starting with an FB campaign instead of going directly to a product launch is to try and generate free publicity. Creating fake demand would be signing up on the kickstarter and then cancelling your pledge in the window between the campaign ending and your CC being charged.
Did you ever see history portrayed as an old man with a wise brow and pulseless heart, weighing all things in the balance of reason?
Is not rather the genius of history like an eternal, imploring maiden, full of fire, with a burning heart and flaming soul, humanly warm and humanly beautiful?

Well, that's one way (for them, not you) to track who's got enough of an interest in their products to potentially lead to a purchase (that is why the Like button exists at all, I hope you realize).

Big into gaming. I guess you're not FB friends with him. I can drop a hint to him, if you'd like.

I've met him at a few conventions, but other than that no FBs behavior regarding privacy settings and my preferences are incompatable.
Feel free to ping him if you're connected, it certainly can't hurt, but this isn't something I'd've expected him to get behind.

I messaged him, rather than just putting it on his wall. I figure I'll let him decide if what is essentially an advertisement is appropriate. He is, after all, way bigger than I am. :p

Good call. Larry is way bigger than almost everyone.

If not: GOTO the beach[^]
Yes, I used GOTO. And I love that prank.
I have lived with several Zen masters - all of them were cats.
His last invention was an evil Lasagna. It didn't kill anyone, and it actually tasted pretty good.

He's lucky he wasn't pummeled.

That would only have happened if he didn't pay all of the actors involved.
The many....many actors.

Worked with him? He's my uncle! Good old Reltio! You should have seen him when he was younger!

What, you were expecting a sensible answer?

Well, I guess I was a little too optimistic. We seem to have a lot of coders here but not many of them seem to work on enterprise scale applications. At least not the ones that hang out in the Lounge.

Your uncle?
He said he was my uncle.

For that you would need 1.21 MW and a DeLoreran.

He isn't a descendant of Relatio Nelson by any chance?

Ah, sorry, I misread. Though you said 'Has anyone worked with Felatio'.
