hi all,
i was initially very excited to participate in this, but then I thought it through more carefully and took my name off the sign-up list. i realized that it's not worth the hit to my reputation to be associated with palmer luckey in any way. modretro's bringing cash to the community right now for sure, but their founder is consistently working against the fundamental preconditions for a healthy and sustainable indie game development scene (and, you know, the fundamental preconditions for a healthy and sustainable world in general). is there any chance the organizers would consider dropping the modretro sponsorship? i imagine i'm not the only one who feels reticent to participate as long as they're involved.
