Reply To: Sad news about 4Ground going into Liquidation

There is some uncertainty around this at the moment but that’s the nature of the liquidation process – the involved parties are not allowed to talk about it.  It’s easy to see why people are concerned though – just because you accept the risk when  you back doesn’t remove your right to be angry if a project fails.  Investors get angry all the time when their investments don’t pay off, Kickstarter shouldn’t be any different.

However the current lateness of the project really shouldn’t be a cause for concern. At the moment it’s 10 months late, ish.  One of the the first projects I backed was Conan by Monolith – It was over a year late. Human Interface Be a Better Human is currently on a boat on the way from China and due to start delivery in August – 18 months late. Kickstarters very rarely deliver on time and the bigger it gets the bigger the delay will be.
