I really wanna support this coin but the scammy smell is not really pleasent
Is it possible to make GRLC truly ASIC resistant or is this project dead?

We're developing and releasing GIP-1 as soon as possible,

please continue all discussion on the new ANN thread: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=2893116.0

Thank you Smiley

What's GIP-1?  are you changing the algo?  If keeping it the same I'm going to do another CPU upgrade for a 3rd rig.

Correct, it's a change of algorithm. Quote from our released statement (https://medium.com/@retosen.dev/an-explanation-3119e44407ba) here:

As a result I am developing the first Garlicoin Improvement Proposal (GIP). GIP-1 is currently being drafted and the implementation is being worked out — should the community show support for it, we as developers will do everything in our power to activate GIP-1 on the network.
GIP-1 will, put simply, be a hard fork to a new Proof of Work algorithm. There is a high possibility this will be Lyra2REv2, however other interesting developments in ASIC resistant proof of work — such as Ravencoin — could be implemented.
