They could go after the anime, gamer crowd fantasy players but still you need your own seed $$$$
I bet he is still slated to do the rest of the downstairs loo, that's probably it, but it means he is still a bit employed by lalande! I bet it is a bit of smoke and mirrors ...Didn't realise he was still employed at Lala land.......or are they being economical with the truth
good point ... The fund was over $3000.00 when they just had 3 backers. Now it has 15 and it is $8053.00, so people are backing at smaller amounts right now ... this is still a LONG ways off from what they need.They're friends and family to kick the ball running. So, 100 000 fans need to buy a goblet and Mark Morrison finally has to put his money where his mouth is. Just WOW! Scrounging has reached new heights!
If this funding succeeds it doesn't matter if their business plan fails. They can put the castle back for sale and bank the donated $500k!
I had friends who ran a festival that way; you had to buy their currency to pay for food etc. It lasted only one year as it was a disaster. You were forever queuing to buy the currency because you didn't want to buy too much currency.Wow, it defies belief. Did anyone else notice this verbiage? Does that mean that "If we can make our dream work, you can make our dream work even better? And I'm freaked out that they are making their own currency that you can purchase at the festival. If you don't use it, can you trade it back in for normal human currency?

I just contributed!What is rather worrying - to say the least! - is that there are complete fruitcakes out there who are willing to give these two idiots money. What's going on? Are there not enough beds in the loony bins these days?
Maybe she thought that way people wasnt going to be able to find the chateau they are buying online, but it was easy to find. The chateau choice seems made in a whim rather than something logical, but their whole project makes no sense economically anyway.why oh why would you photo shop that in? And when you read the history some of it didn't quite sound like what Taty said in the video ... like the age of the chateau ... I might have to relisten, but I thought she said parts of it were 12 century ... the sale site link says more like it is 15 century, and built on the site of something that was there 12 century ...
So let’s say the Kickstarter works (because this is a crazy world and people are idiots) and they get the money to purchase the house by selling tix for the events. Like our Le Comte de Monte Christo said the events take a ton of money upfront to produce, where is that money going to come from?I dont get it..why not buy a place you can afford..and then start with the rest...then there is no pressure..but no..they must have the top of the rank...they are dreamers..both of them..not real businesspeople..are they aware how much it costs to set up a festival like that..and that there is likely no profit left..they think thousands of people are going to attend...do they have those connections with those people?? How much land has that chateau...facilities..all those people need to bath, go to the toilet..sleep..security...and when its bad weather?? this is not gonna work..Fan is sitting there with a straight face..because she also knows this plan is gonna blow up in their face..just like we know..
So they are going to use the money that people pay for tickets to their events to fund the purchase of the Chateau. What will they use to pay for all the things they will need for the events that people have already paid for????????? All of Selmar's bands that he mentioned are going to cost a forrtune before anything else.Thanks @MojoDublin and congrats @ComtesseRose
To continue on the Selmar and Tatyana discussion...
Have they paid a deposit? On usual French terms they need to pay 10% of the purchase price as the deposit and if you back out, your 10% is gone. There's only ten days to change your mind and not lose the deposit but these two are crowd funding for 55 days.
The deposit can be negotiated but I'm afraid Selmar and Tatyana are going to lose their savings when they fail to raise the rest of the money to close the deal.
Kickstarter link again for this thread as well:
The Kickstarter money will cover for the down payment, few months of living and the estimated costs of the first festival. Of course you're expected to become a patron to fund the rest of the loan and their renovation and living costs in the future.So let’s say the Kickstarter works (because this is a crazy world and people are idiots) and they get the money to purchase the house by selling tix for the events. Like our Le Comte de Monte Christo said the events take a ton of money upfront to produce, where is that money going to come from?
