Maybe Robert should issue some OFP judgment calls for people to give him money. Clearly he'll have the support of all registered forums (only one ever, his own).

No, there has to me a financial transaction before hand if an OFP judgement call asks money to be returned.

We're not asking what you DID do, we're asking what you're GOING to do. Let's see a timeline and some pie charts and shit.

I don't need piecharts, I need cash. I'm not getting much from amazon instant video sales and youtube only gives pennies for those adds.

So... You're saying to the people you want to front you the money that you won't bother to prove you can turn the money into something?

You odviosly don't know the basic principles of crowdfunding Bear. You don't ask for a return on investment, you ask what is needed. That's what I did when I donated to two Kickstarters in the past.

This time, you're not donating money, you're asking for it. And that means the people with the money need to be satisfied before any checks are written. You aren't doing anything to prove the money would go to anything of value.

I'm not asking for one person to put full ammount alone, I got 5/6ths of what I need on hand. I also have $357 in a kickstarter video fund for next year in a planned kickstarter next year, right now if I dig into that it's gonna be hit for me because when it comes to making a weak presentation today and a strong presentation tomorrow, I think even you understand that.

https://www.kickstarter.com/rules Please do read the rules again. They don't actually allow a direct return on investment, but they do require that the project creates something. So, asking for money to produce a new movie is fine, but asking for money to repair your camera or get a new computer isn't exactly kosher unless you go into detail about what that new computer/camera will allow you to make and a plan to make it.

The Joe Cracked Foolproof Business Plan(TM):

1- Come up with an idea that doesn't make sense to anyone.

2- Refuse to explain anything.

3- Beg for free money, labor, and equipment.

4- Insult the people who could offer you money, labor, and equipment.

5- Wait 3 years.

6- Produce nothing.

7- Profit!!!

Joe Cracker, assuming that you failed to raise $100 for the Kickstarter. What will you do?

Why are you buying a $70 keyboard? You can get a working USB keyboard for under $20.

Well for starters, here is a picture of my desk. It's very hard to work there. Having a wireless keyboard will allow me work from my entertainment center and since Mac mini has HDMI output I can use my TV and work from my chair where I have more room.

That appears to be more of a hoarding problem than a space one. Between throwing out garbage and perhaps buying a cheap plastic organizer, you could make that into a nice space inexpensively.
