No real news to report, but our main man Ken "Whit" Whitman did have about seven seconds of screen time on the pilot episode of MacGyver.
Now when Ken "Whit" Whitman tries to explain that he can't fulfill his Kickstarter obligations, it is because of his new film career, as demonstrated for seven seconds on TV last week.
Thanks to Tenkar's Tavern for the 411.
A blog dedicated to documenting the assorted details regarding the business/scam dealings of Ken Whitman or Whit Whitman, as he rebranded himself. Originally limited to those interactions within the Role-Playing-Game industry, we've been forced to "branch out" in order to keep the public properly informed.

A Brief Introduction to this Page's Purpose
Not Another Dime! is dedicated to documenting the assorted, and sometimes wild, details of Mr. Ken Whitman's business dealings within the Role Playing Game (RPG) industry. This place is NOT intended to be a medium of discussion about Mr. Whitman, pro or con, but instead be a "jumping off" point to enable the reader to make their own informed decision about Mr. Whitman's history and business character. (Editor's Note: After years of this documentation, we simply cannot be anything BUT "con" when it comes to Mr. Whitman)
Whenever possible, links to the original source material will be provided, but in many cases that information may have been deleted or secured behind restricted-access (like a private Facebook page) accounts.
Anything posted here is the opinion of the retrospective author and any content shown is to be considered "fair use" and posted for educational purposes only.
Note to authors: Please begin each post with the original date of the event being documented in the format of YYYY.MM.DD (i.e. If the event being recorded happened on March 15th, 2015 and today's date was August 8th, 2018 the beginning of the post's title would be 2015.03.15 and not 2018.08.08) so readers can use the Chronology page to find specific information. Please use appropriate tags when possible for the same reason.
Note to contributors: If you have some valid data to send, screenshots, links to other Ken Whitman stories, etc., please feel free to send a gmail to notanotherdimeblog. We'll look into it and post if appropriate.

His membership dues to the Screen Actor's guild seems to cost more than he made from his non-speaking/constipated/incontinent/ear-scratching (See Tenkar's comments) performance. He is going into debt to satisfy whatever is left of his ego and self esteem. Like paying someone to be his friend. Where are our kickstarter rewards, Ken? Where is the KoDT footage and the Traveller resin? Obviously you have time to sign up for open calls for non-speaking extras.
ReplyDeleteOne less reason not to watch it...
ReplyDeleteI don't begrudge Ken trying to earn money that *doesn't* involve using equipment paid for by Kickstarter backers, but man - non-speaking extra parts pay very, very, poorly. He's better off abandoning his dreams of big screen stardom to go flip burgers. He might not make much, but in a 40 hour week, he'd make more than he will for non-speaking extra roles (assuming rates are what they were a few years ago) and and that would at least be a start. This, of course, assumes he cares about paying anybody back or fulfilling those Kickstarters (which, of course, he obviously doesn't).
ReplyDeleteHe should be able to do better in acting jobs. After all, his acting skills were honed to a sharp edge when convincing Kickstarter backers that he was for real. Obviously! Any questions were arrogantly pushed back, giving the aura that he knew what he was doing (just not when he would do it.)
ReplyDeleteI would like to see a video collage of Ken Whitman + Shia LaBeouf's famous motivational "Do it!" YouTube video.
