Could be he meant to enter 5.00, but put in 500...you know, like an ATM machine :P

Nice idea but remember, they've REVERSED an amount already pledged. A backer has actually gone into their account and cancelled the payment authority.

Well, if I meant to put in 5,00$, and I entered 500 by mistake, I WOULD return and cancel once I noticed! Has the backers count remained the same all the while, or did it go down by one?

Conjuncture anyway. Perhaps it is a turncoat. We must prepare the noose, just in case. I mean, why take a chance!

lol exactly...and for the record, we're still under. So it was an all out cancellation unless they were just downgrading their pledge.

I've actually seen this happen a *lot*. I've seen it go down by anywhere from $15 to about $1000. Sometimes it's one person, other times many. If all those pledges were put back in, we'd be at least 10K higher, although I have no way of calculating what the actual retracted funds amount is.

Nope. It makes more sense to find them, take their home and other assets and sell their family, convert the funds into pledges and then render the appearance of the turncoat as a San Francisco mutant (and I don't mean a Chelsea style of appearance)!

Now from $211,326 to $210,836. That's nearly $600.00 we could have had.

Tell me about it...it's so frustrating because without all that happening, we would be up around 49% now :(
