A Quick Derek Smart Question....
on: July 16, 2004, 09:48:28 am
.....Where does he get his money from?

He's going on about teams of lawyers and stuff, but all his games bombed and AFAIK he's not got anything resembling a deal with any credible games company.

Are his mountains of cash like his PhD (fake) or is there actually some reasonable explaination for his being not-poor?

Seriously, it's been bugging me all night.

His games weren't what you might call spectacularly succesful, but they did make money. But I don't think that accounts for all of it, so I'm as lost as you are.

the very same place he gets his big words from, his ass.

seriously, he has the personality of a 12-year old AOL'er with slightly better english skills.

talk is cheap, so i really would take what he says with a grain of salt.

do not torment the sleep deprived artist, he may be vicious when cornered,
in case of emergency, administer caffeine to the artist,
he will become docile after that,
and less likely to stab you in the eye with a mechanical pencil

Whatever or whereever it nothing for us to be concern about. We should just continue on. :)

I think he sues a lot of people - y'know, for bad reviews, for releasing his games, etc.

I appreciate your frustration, an0n, and your anger, Turnsky. But Sigma's got it on the head here. Wherever he gets his money or his words from, we can worry about them later. Consider how helpful this thread is to the present situation? Not really, at the moment. Let it go, at least for now, guys.

i can see your point, Setekh, i've dealt with these types before, the trick is, to just ignore them, that really annoys them to no end.:)

I'm confident we'll discover most of what we're curious about in the next few days. It will reveal itself. :)

There's pictures of him all over the place.

He's an ugly black guy. Looks kinda like Stevie offa Malcolm in the Middle.
