and there are still 40 hours to go if anyone out there wants to donate i thought the original goal of $57k was optimistic, but this has gone far beyond what anyone could have expected. check it out at the link below...

Holy fuck *NM* Urza - 20/02/2012 01:22:15 AM 347 Views
I always marvel at the fact that some people donate thousands of dollars to these things LadyLorraine - 20/02/2012 03:05:27 AM 762 Views
PBS drives make sense as they are tax deductible moondog - 20/02/2012 03:01:22 PM 701 Views
The real moral here may be that PBS should offer greater icentives. Joel - 20/02/2012 09:03:13 PM 720 Views
I am unsure whether to be impressed or appalled. Joel - 20/02/2012 07:41:31 AM 762 Views
The actors of Friends were making 1 million per episode in season 9 and 10 Roland00 - 20/02/2012 02:41:24 PM 727 Views
Yeah, but they were not being paid by their (probably far less numerous) viewers. Joel - 20/02/2012 08:26:16 PM 741 Views
I really wish I had $300 to spare. Kronin al'Sulc - 21/02/2012 06:23:07 PM 751 Views
impressed is the correct emotion here, thanks for playing! moondog - 20/02/2012 03:05:56 PM 685 Views
Cool then. Joel - 20/02/2012 08:32:37 PM 733 Views
Its like the Double Fine story from a few days days ago Stephen - 20/02/2012 05:59:31 PM 821 Views
That is very interesting in the context of the recent and ongoing piracy debates. Joel - 20/02/2012 08:47:35 PM 772 Views
you just described the steam/valve business model moondog - 21/02/2012 06:24:01 AM 713 Views
It sounds like it would be a good model even without piracy. Joel - 21/02/2012 04:15:21 PM 613 Views
except double fine is more of a technical project than a creative one moondog - 21/02/2012 06:22:32 AM 669 Views
Not really- the reason people kickstarted Double Fine is BECAUSE of the creative part beetnemesis - 21/02/2012 03:51:17 PM 705 Views
my point is that it appeals to the tech crowd, which is typically better when it comes to $$$ moondog - 22/02/2012 03:06:13 AM 634 Views
Ahhh. Yes, sorry, I misunderstood. beetnemesis - 22/02/2012 03:33:36 AM 591 Views
