The solution to half your problems ( maybe ) !!!

Why not create a kickstarter to fund the fulfillment of the Original pandora preorders with a voucher for 30 free credits to download several paid games on the pandora ( get several devs willing to give up a couple of weeks worth of pay on their pnds ) as the incentive to back .

Kickstarter can't be used for existing products.

Or we could do it here

There are open-source Kickstart systems already available, you are welcome to build your own and start it yourself

I'm pretty sure you wouldn't raise enough money that way.


People here are already donating to "the cause" slowly, and there's no indication it is helping at all. The primary problem is that no one has any idea what Craig is doing, what his queue looks like, any of that. He needs to communicate with EvilDragon and draw up a plan on what exactly needs to happen in order to fulfil the remaining pre-orders, how much money and therefore sales he needs. Transparency is key here, I don't think he's buying anyone's love and desire to help by being ... himself right now.

...no one has any idea what Craig is doing...

I think we get the idea of what he is doing.


He just does not want to spell it out loud himself.

Then maybe we should get his attention and direct it at this thread

Are there enough such paid games? Otherwise you're merely turning "waiting for an already-paid hardware product to be built and delivered" into "waiting for an already-paid software product to be built and delivered".


If the games exist, you need to sell the idea to the devs first. Obviously those people who would benefit from the scheme (preorderers, openpandoras Ltd. and GmbH) aren't going to oppose you much; but how do you see your chances convincing those who would provide, apparently for free, what you need to make your idea happen?

Craig reading this thread isn't going to change a thing.

don't worry about it. At least you're thinking and want to see a solution.
