The Fine Young Capitalists, creators of a charitable indie game jam to support women developers, have their game jam destroyed by Z.Q. and other women in order to draw support to their own game jam. FYC speak out here. による SpiritualSuccessorsにおいて gaming

Just so everyone knows.

Z.Q. spoke poorly about our event far before Rebel Jam happened.

She would have had to have a time machince for this conspiracy to be true.

People before her and after her have had problem with the project and voiced their concern to our faces.

Don't make this about her, make this about helping woman.

Sigh...

It's more that the game is actually owned by a bunch of people that share in the profits. There are a bunch of woman video design competitions where the game never get's made and it was never attending to get made.

We just wanted to make sure it was made and that the profits went to the person that supported the development.

Yes, I suppose so, in that a Man could then identify as a Woman for the contest, take the art, and then Identify as a Man.

She went on and on how the contest was transphobic because of that.

Okay this is what happened.

This is our Trans Policy. And it has always been our Trans policy

http://www.thefineyoungcapitalists.com/TransgenderPolicy

And two month before all the non sense you can see our video where we described gender as being performative.

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=A058HfLYlMw&t=0m50s

The only rule is that we said you had to self identify before a certain date.

She said why are you policing people Transitions points.

We said, to stop people from lying about their identity and be inclusive to everyone.

She decided to take that out of context.

Which is why we got so much hate for so long.

It wasn't Polygon it was basically people would side with her on issues so

Zoe also expressed her concern over the proceeds of women's work going to charity, and how the winning woman will only receive a small cut of the money, something I agreed was strange from the start. We just don't understand the overlap of the investing system with the way the company is supposed to be supporting women in tech. It's a good cause to try to encourage women to run their own businesses, but the system that only delivers her a small percentage of the rewards and gives the rest away to charities out of her control is strange. It seems more pro-capitalism than pro-woman.

We don't understand it because they were explained that the woman didn't have to make the game. That all the production was being headed by woman, and the profits go to charity, and the woman could leave the contest at any time if she had professional interest in her idea or any other reason. We told them they could see our books and see where the money went. The majority of the woman who applied had no programming experience and this was their only option. No one is going to straight up say, we believe her over you. The problem is that they just kept going on these weird parallel after they talked to her and wouldn't explain to us what was wrong.

And we don't want this to be a Witch Hunt, because we have tons of people in the industry sending stupid emails to us because they read twitter and not the website. We have people on the GDC diversity panel explaining how there are so many better opportunities for women.

We don't understand if Zoey can run a Game Jam which is basically where people pay to go into a room and make games, which the person running the Game Jam uses to promote the game jam and raise donations. We can't ask woman for idea, give them professional concept artist (For no money.) and then try to make the game and give the profits to charity. We never took the idea and licensed them all the art.

I understand people don't like it that they have to pay to make the game (Or in this case pre-order the game.) but it's 6 month work. And all the money goes to the production company not TFYC. TFYC can't make any money off of it. And we don't it's a giant money hole.

She said that it was exploitative to make pitches for women, and to take those pitches and put them online, have the internet vote on the best one and then make the game and give the profits to charity.

She said I was transphobic, that I am scam artist and she basically repeated this to journalists that believe her despite ample evidence that disproved her.

Rebel Jam is a Zoe Quinn project.

Can we make sure that people are aware of that as she is taking money, and it does not have a start date or a location.

TotalBiscuit calls out Reddit (and /r/Games?) for censorship による [deleted]において gaming

[–]SillySladar 0 ポイント1 ポイント  (0子コメント)

Okay, we really don't think it was malice and just ignorance on her part. There were a lot of people on Twitter that just agreed with her with out reading anything. They just though, asking for people to submit an idea, then creating concept art, and then having the internet choose the best one so that game could be made by other woman to make a game for charity was exploitative to woman.

And journalist didn't write anything, the problem was that they'd immediately believe her, over us, despite we had legal contracts, and a proper explanation what was going on.

We don't really care about any of the sex, or the fact she was using her position as a woman. And if anyone ask us about that stuff, we'll actually defend her. Cause it's a non issue. But Rebel Jam not having a date or location but still taking money we find a little odd.

She entitled her opinion, she not entitled to straight up make up information that isn't correct. And was clearly explained.

And I would not have carried if she didn't repeat it to journalists, or if the journalists didn't just believe her straight up.

If someone showed interest in the game they could bow out of the competition and work with the other person. Also they always got to keep the art even if they didn't win and we never took their idea.

We think she didn't understand it the first time and though you had to make the game.

But when that became clear she couldn't change her opinion and just rolled with it.

They just all reported us and we got Banned from Twitter so we couldn't deal with stuff. It was resolved in a couple hours.

The only reason it's considered Doxxing is literally my name doesn't appear on any of the pages of TFYC, and I got one death threat (From a teenager which I deleted and was never scared about it in anyway so let's not start that Drama) which is the reason why none of the contest winners got their picture put up.

Lola and the rest have the picture up because their in Colombia and have to deal with far worst things then internet hate.

Okay here is the thing.

TFYC is technically a radical feminist group.

I don't care who she is sleeping with, we fight for Sex Workers rights for gods sake. Don't care about that drama.

We do care that she completely fabricated information about our contest and more importantly spread that information to reporters so we could not get news coverage. I think it honestly started with her not understanding what was going and then she kept rolling with it.

That is what bothers us.

Okay the doxing was done here and it was done by her friend who was speaking to Zoey. They talk every day so it's pretty clear it was Zoey.

The video's in question were these ones

That was also the post that they banned us from Twitter for because we replied to it showing the video that were created. They saw the videos as offensive.

The long and short of the story is.

We offered free concept design to woman so they could get a pitch to sell their game. Then we'd put the idea online and the internet would vote on the best one. All the profits would go the charity. The woman would always own the art and the idea and they we free at any time to leave the contest and make it on their own.

IT WAS SUPPOSED TO INSPIRE WOMAN TO WORK IN TECH.

Zoey some how read that as you have to make the game... which is only stupid because she runs Game Jams where people make games for FREE. And decided to freak out. Game journalist are horrible and believed her.
