    Stretch Goals:

    $35 - I will make 4x as much Potato Salad. I know $40 isn't 4x $10, but you guys have earned it.

    $75 - Pizza Party!

    $100 - I will try two different Potato Salad recipes.
    $50,000 later. Jesus Christ, that's awesome!

    There are too many threads about kickstarter lately. All kickstarter projects are stupid.

    Considering there are close to no successfull projects so far I'd say it's a pretty valid opinion to say they are all stupid.

    That's a pretty sweeping generalisation. I'd suggest doing some research since not every kickstarter project is 'stupid' - some lead to the creation of brilliant games or help bring a lot of good to an ailing individual or group.

    Some lead to a great concept of games and other media or tech...most projects are released with broken tech, bugs or flat out only half the stuff they promised.

    This is true , many stories coming out with rewards being delivered a year late etc.

    It's one of those things were you hope that the good outweighs the bad , which I think for kickstarter it does.

    That would be the best potato salad you'd ever eaten, wouldn't it?

    yep it was but using the page button is too hard for some people. so instead of contributing to the old thread make another thread about it.
