I'm sure John's former employees that got fucked over by him made sure to warn everyone that Bri-bri will make them slave away, fire them, pay them only $1, then hog all the credit.View attachment 2373954
You're not making videogames 'again' because you can't. No one will work for you and you have no idea how to animate, light, texture or program. As the media likes to say, 'and this is a good thing.'
So I know we like to poke fun at the whole "John paid his slaves only $1" thing, but I decided to do some digging.I'm sure John's former employees that got fucked over by him made sure to warn everyone that Bri-bri will make them slave away, fire them, pay them only $1, then hog all the credit.

I'm pretty sure he mentioned this before this date, but the only time I found the contract story on his Twitter was as part of a chain reply to a now-deleted tweet back in 2017, so if he did tweet about it before, it was purged some time ago:

So the story, as John tells it, is that John's lawyer wrote up all the GSK employment contracts with the "$1 and other valuable consideration" line in place of the salary, implying that the rest of the salary was the "other valuable consideration." He says that this was done to protect them if they were ever sued (gee, I can't imagine why anyone would want to sue John).
Now, I'm not the most well-versed on contract law, but I did a brief search for the line. "$1 and other (good and) valuable consideration" is a fairly standard line in contracts from what I can see. However, pretty much all the references that I found involved things like real estate or vehicle sales, and it doesn't mean that the property changed hands for a buck. The actual purchase price is recorded on a separate document.
I did try out a couple online employment contract generators to see what sort of language is typically used in them. One didn't even mention the line at all, while the other had the line "IN CONSIDERATION of promises and other good and valuable consideration the parties agree to the following:" before the terms were laid out. It specifically listed the salary, however, nothing ambiguous about that. If someone's more knowledgeable about employment contracts and their language, I'd greatly appreciate any additional clarity.
So, what's the takeaway? Well, John and John's lawyer are both pieces of shit if they deliberately stuck that line in there and didn't actually specify their employees' salaries as some form of gotcha to get away with scamming GSK's employees. I don't buy the anti-lawsuit reasoning either. Again, IANAL, but I don't think that line would hold up in court if you really did just pay someone a buck and told them to hit the road after they built an entire game for you.
Alternatively, John found some random legal definition and fabricated another bizarre story in an Ambien-induced haze. Take your pick.
IIRC, didn't one of John's former slaves go on Twitter and state that the second the "game" was done, John gave them all each a dollar and told them to fuck off? I know at least one of them flat out said that John worked them all to death, treated them like shit, and then took all of the credit despite doing jack shit himself.So I know we like to poke fun at the whole "John paid his slaves only $1" thing, but I decided to do some digging.

Don’t say that John, you would be required to act like an adult too! No more 80 hour video game weeks!Yes John, it should also be mandatory that able-bodied, working-aged men be required to hold a job, earn their keep, and give back to the country, or else be thrown in prison. It's time for us to act like adults.

Not once will the Branch Covidians ever take a few seconds to think about their statements like these. If the vaccines were truly effective, then they'd have nothing to fear from the virus regardless of future spread. The only logical answer is that the vaccines don't actually work, at least not in the traditional sterilizing immunity sense, which is what Big Pharma has been saying all along if they would have been paying attention. It's a pretty shit vaccine if you can still catch the disease in question and then pass it on to others.Yes John, it should also be mandatory that able-bodied, working-aged men be required to hold a job, earn their keep, and give back to the country, or else be thrown in prison.

I only remember seeing these tweet screeds from Emma Clarkson complaining about her time working for John (had to go digging around in the wiki archives to track down some of these):IIRC, didn't one of John's former slaves go on Twitter and state that the second the "game" was done, John gave them all each a dollar and told them to fuck off? I know at least one of them flat out said that John worked them all to death, treated them like shit, and then took all of the credit despite doing jack shit himself.
I would say that it was actually @RepStephenLynch who took out the trash, except that taking out the trash requires (1) effort and (2) acknowledging that the trash exists.

I treasure the absolute freakout Wu did when she was rumbled. Lets not forget that Wu had told everyone, including her husband, that she had a degree. Indeed, she was telling everyone online that she was a gradate student up until about 2012, and she may have even told Frank that's what she was doing.
the crappy part is, it's not just a aggrandizing lie for image sake, John said he hired frank to do contract review...which isn't within the scope of what a patent agent can do.

*while I do not agree with impersonation techniques if they were used.
Just to be clear, nobody has ever impersonated Wu to get personal information. None of the information we have on Wu has ever been obtained by illegal or even morally dubious means. Wu just made that up for victim points. Everything we've ever learned about Wu has been from public domain sources, often shit she's posted herself.
In this case you can read what really happened starting in the old thread here. Then this is what Wu said happened:

The story has shifted a little since then as you can see.
Salacious Crumb did nothing wrong and I resent that comparison to John Flynt.John is a monster in the same way that little gremlin guy that's like a pet to Jabba the Hutt is : morally bankrupt,annoying, occasionally an inconvenience to the good guys trying to bring justice to the galaxy.
