I am sure Josh and the LT community (of which you are a part, don't forget) are encouraged by your kind words. Now, is there any chance of one or two of my Elite brethren posting the occasional morsel in the Elite Dangerous thread in our Games section? I will do the same on the LT thread as I've been doing for sometime now. I think we've established that Commanders are welcome here and we really don't bite.
I post in the Limit Theory thread on the Elite forums from time to time, but my main contribution is for keeping the guys at Quartertothree updated in this thread:

Brian Rubin (that thread starter) is a complete space game nut (in the nicest sense), infact he runs his own site for all things space simish:

In terms of posting on the Limit Theory forums i sort of have faith (and a feeling) Josh is the kind of designer that works best digging up inspiration from within, so i sort of somehow just trust that he will get it right without my input
SC i sort of gave up on (but am still a funder), as it became more a vessel about fund raising than anything else and i do worry about the unlevel playing field all that will entail in the games design.
Elite: Dangerous i'm also more worried about, in part due to the almost disastrous Kickstarter (UK only was a big part of it, but the lack of info/screens/video's in the early phase had an effect), the 'outside private investors' influence (not crowdfunding), and also the main focus on the MP aspect which i'm not that interested in, being an Elite 'Traditionalist' (if it ain't broke don't fix it).
But yeah my gut designers instinct tells me Limit Theory in Joshes capable hands (not blowing smoke here, the results so far speak for themself) is the safest bet for the most awesome SP space sim this decade.
No pressure
