There's no way to be a "realist" when the details of Hopper Labs are unknown to us.
Hence, you're a pessimist.
So who here is a Nov 25 backer that has not received notifications yet?
Any Nov 26s out there?
I'm Dec 12 and am excited about the (apparent) forward momentum beginning!
What details are unknown?

People were supposed to receive mass produced grasshoppers over a year ago and they haven't even gotten through the original indie gogo backers yet.

Every single update is filled with unfulfilled "estimates" that are only called estimates to cover their asses and slow the rate of refunds.

What more details do we need exactly?

all of them.

none of them.
Hey man if you're ever looking to build a house I'm your guy. It may take 20 years and you better not ask any questions, just give me the cash and wait patiently.

I'll be sure to give you bi-monthly updates but DO NOT expect the deadlines I give you to ever actually be met. That would be ridiculous to expect that.

can we maybe discuss shipping of grasshoppers rather then the continuation of you moaning about further delays and your fantasies of building homes?
thanks.

thanks.

I vote that we continue discussing each others posts discussing the delays.

Moans about delays should be welcome here. This is the Grasshopper SHIPPING POLL :lol: If you want to discuss the grasshopper i recommend checking the REAL official GRASSHOPPER thread version 2:rofl:

Superstitious moans posted in the form of magical incantations may bring about expedited shipments of fully functioning Grasshoppers, and maybe a downpour of much needed rain!

I though that was determined to be more of a sock puppet than an official representative?

@Zenpen is a GHL representative who was posting here for some time after the sock-puppet suspicions were raised. He is still a member, although he hasn't logged in for about a year.

I had looked back months ago and it looked like he hadn't posted since a year ago Oct. He probably feels he would be targeted if he post on FC. He probably would so I don't blame him. I've often wondered about someone joining FC and posting and they secretly work for GHL. Just a thought.

Not a bad update this time...maybe their best? Its a low bar, I know. For once they gave a specific production rate and they also acknowledged in their own way that production rates havent been as high as they promised back in July when they let Matt write the update and he said production rates would be in the 1000s shortly (they haven't let him write an update since). Think they are feeling some of the backlash from refunds and the negative tone that's emerged on reddit. Now lets hope with expectations reset they can get the job done this time.
