Well... when theorycrafting one should also consider the option of no one actually investing into CIG, as sane investors might actually think 200mill USD for a game is as much funding as it should ever need, and would not make back enough to be considered worth the risk. And remind oneself of the option of services being paid by share offers. But such a theory is completly out of my ass and in no way linked to the actual facts we've seen nor based on any real information.
Just as minor question to remind myself - is the UK holding the copyrights and further rights, or are they shipped over to the US side? And if i remember correctly wasn't the UK, legally, independent of the US and vice-versa - meaning 10% aren't nessecarily 10% of the overall project?
And just to recount 10+ companies and now cayman island shareholders. Yeah totally sounds like off your mill company just funded to deliver a well described product...
