The Trichordist 
As a pledger I am pissed about the money I might lose on some unfinished projects I funded, but more than that I am worried about the impact it will have on the artists I tried to support this way.
I already had one of them offering to make sure the goods ordered would be delivered and take the cost themselves. It really sucks that the artists have these extra costs coming to them as well, when it is already such a difficult time to get your work paid.
