    Through the Fire and the Flames

    Help me buy back my soul from the devil.

    Keep reading for fundraiser details, pledge goals and rewards, updates, FAQs, and user comments.

    $2,043.28 pledged of $1 million goal
    666 backers 13 days to go
    Tacoma, Washington, USA
    This project will only be funded if the devil takes the deal.

    Campaign

    How It Happened
    It was Flint’s fault. I mean, I thought he was cool and all, but after we were all talking about how Through the Fire and the Flames was just IMPOSSIBLE on Guitar Hero, he told us the legend of Robert Johnson. The dude sold his soul to the devil for his musical talent. Damn, right?

    I mean, Mr. Flint was a high school history teacher rock and roll wannabe, playing bass with his cover band at house parties on the weekend. He probably wanted to sell his soul too. GH came out when I was 13 years old. I played every waking hour my parents would let me. Mom hated the noise, but my dad would sometimes play along, especially when my friends were over. He was mortifying, but he got pretty good at Sweet Child O’ Mine. I was sic. Good enough that I was actually cool at school. Guitar Hero defined me.

    Selling My Soul
    One night I was bored, and just for fun I summoned the devil. I mean, he was already right there on the screen. All I wanted was the ability to beat GH at every level. Lucifer gladly made the deal. I thought it was just part of the game, but then… I won the school tournament.

    Then I won in Vegas.
    I even won in Japan.

    Regrets
    I think I sold more than my soul. I am amazing at Guitar Hero, but I literally suck at everything else. I am not good at any other video game. I dropped out of high school. And I can’t play a real guitar for shit.

    So, I need your help. I want my soul back. I know, it’s not your problem, but it’s been over six years since Activision shut down GH. I am 33 and can’t take living in my parent’s rec. room any longer. Worse, I can’t even play the game anymore as my system gets glitchy no matter what I do. I mean seriously, should we be forever punished for the stupid ass decisions of our youth? Bro, help a dude out. There are some dope offers.

    Risks
    It’s the Devil.

    FAQ

    Can’t you just get a job?

    I’d like to, but as I said, due to the deal I have no other skills. I bombed out at the drive-through at Taco Bell.

    What makes you think your soul is worth $1 million dollars?

    Look, I don’t set the price. He does. I know it is a stretch, but I don’t know what else to do. At least he seems willing to help me raise the money.

    Updates

    January 25th : Lucifer keeps getting people to pledge $0 without a reward. Come on people, I don’t need your encouragement, I need money.
