Lawyers have done enough damage here--hopefully this can all be sorted out in the gaming community, it would be bitter irony indeed if the project is alienated from the community of people who created it.

Certain individuals seem to have the intention of fleecing quite a number of people; That being said, I can not give definitive proof that the intention to do just that was there, nor can I say that all the funds raised have been spent. However, in all appearances, the lack of transparency indicates just that.
