about 10% of the KS money goes to fees, and then there's the cost of rewards and shipping and such.Sai wrote:joliet_jane wrote:I think I read in an interview they put $300k? aside themself. Did some of the 300k already get swallowed up by other things like fees and such?
They did a good job of keeping these costs down though by only giving physical rewards to $75 and up. $750,000 is pretty decent, all told.

Ryan Jones does exist. They could not keep him a secret forever...redcat72 wrote:Maybe it's late, but I'm confused... IS there a Ryan Jones, or did they just mess up Chris's name??
Well, his son was the one who got him to be the Big P.I. in the Sky apparently. So it worked for the Tex Murphy series at leastmy voice just wrote:if it worked, we`d have seen him in cloak and helmet all the time from now on
It said in an interview they will approach him about reprising his role, wonder if they'll go through his son again 
Yeah indeed. It is a shame about the fees but considering where we were at a year ago, it is still phenomenal. And of course that amount still hits all the stretch goals and more so should still give them enough leeway for any unexpected costs further down the line.Frogacuda wrote:They did a good job of keeping these costs down though by only giving physical rewards to $75 and up. $750,000 is pretty decent, all told.
EDIT: Maybe Ryan Jones was the one hosting the Google+ countdown chat? Chris said he was his son. Don't remember if he looked the same as the son playing James Dean in the pitch video. But anyone looking for proof could turn their P.I. skills there
