Apparently they are of the philosophy of "Try, try, again..."

And apparently they don't understand that something like this requires many millions of dollars from huge corporate sponsors. If there were a real market for this someone with the money and expertise would already be doing it.

I think this was the original one.

Wow... that's actually not the 'other' one I saw earlier.

I found it by checking what other projects 'Abigail Radigan' started.

The recursiveness of this is messing with my mind.

I'm confused as well...


I think one of the links might have been intended to be the exact same KS pitch that only managed to get 8 backers before failing last November.

Well that would make more sense...I just moused over both and saw they were the same link...

Wow, talk about delusions of grandeur. Yeah, this can all be done for 75k no problem.

If The League (the show) has taught me anything it's that any sort of virtual / fantasy sport group requires a loser trophy like the Sacko.

This KS does not mention anything even close to a Sacko.

It's like they can't decide if they want to do a fantasy league thing (which could be cool to dedicated e-sport fans) and making a new game specifically to promote their broadcasting premise.

And that 'risks and challenges' section. Just... wow...

Nope. This is the most scammy KS I've seen, except maybe http://www.penny-arcade.com/comic/2012/05/04 . There's nothing about a game, it's basically "Hey, ESPORTS. ESPORTS! Give us money, we can do Esports. Here is how we will support ESPORTS!! Money please."

Okay, is there any way this can not be a scam/cash-grab?
