This is how it stays for now. I have updated the OP mentioning that some members are worried about possible payouts. Anybody is free to take up the 10 day option or apply for the campaign next month.

Regarding why they trusted me, only they can answer. I offered to create signatures, escrow and run the campaign and Eric accepted (later roslinpl made the signatures).

Anyways, you will all find out in a month.

Btw, Muhammad Zakir has been included in the campaign.

EDIT: This is the final say from me regarding this particular matter. The campaign has not started yet, so participants can take any option they wish. For the rest, you have made your say, anybody looking at the OP or through the thread can see the concerns.
