do you get the funding even if you don't reach your goal?
that is one of the main gripes with the most popular crowdfunded site - Kickstarter.
Yes, I will get whatever people donate. The way they've set up their website, is that there aren't any time limits on a campaign. The person who created it can leave it up as long as they want. Even after they have reached their goal, on the off chance that someone will want to donate then. And the campaign creator can withdraw donations whenever they want(it doesn't affect the overall progress indicator). I didn't realize that kickstarter doesn't give the people the money donated unless they reach their goal. That's kinda horrible. :-/ that makes kickstarter a risk for smaller projects that aren't well known doesn't it?
