I feel a baked out of his mind Joe Rogan would enjoy this game immensely and be a solid untapped market. "If this hits 20,000 backers, everything will have a protective coating to eliminate the possibly of beer and pretzel stains? I'll buy 20 bro."

But you know, a luxury brewery beer and mall pretzels with real cheese.

Upset City Baby.

Have you revisted this at all? It seems to have a pretty clearly defined curve, and I wonder if any other models have a more accurate r value.
I just shifted it to a 3rd order polynomial, which fits quite well. It also now forecasts that AoA will fund and will actually hit three stretch goals. I'm more skeptical than the model though, because it is essentially assuming a symmetrical funding curve.

Well since we're at the halfway point, we'll see if the 3rd order polynomial fits well pretty soon. *fingers crossed*

That would be incredible. I would love to see that!

They hinted at another video with “cooler” people playing. No idea who that could be but would be awesome if it got some big exposure toward the end of this.

They were 600 backers short of the Rancor and they didn't produce it. That campaign had similar missteps that would have generated 600 more backers if they had shown color pictures instead of greyscale renders too.

Worth noting that the Rancor (like most Haslab items) was a one off toy, not the launch of a product line that could be wildly successful. Seems like it could be worth them fronting some of the cost. I don’t think that will actually happen though.

The good ole bias-variance trade-off at work... If only regression models were good at extrapolation rather than interpolation.

And I though the linear projection was excessively optimistic. XD
