I'm in too.

Edit: Top o' the page!

Count me in for a tenner, too.

I would note also, that getting anything resembling a real mini/bar fridge might be overkill and depending on office etiquette, an additional hassle (can only speak from my own office experience here, with tagging of electrical appliances and so forth). I mean, the initial idea was to get something to cool cans of drink, in a lighthearted but useful mockery of his vending machine crusade. I don't know if stretching to something that holds sandwiches, fruit and milk cartons is moving too far away from that or not. I'll defer to others opinions though :)
 
I could chip in, but I dunno how. PayPal maybe ?

Edit: Yeah, it seems that I'm able to chip in. Maybe $10 or maybe more.
 
Ok, so by my count this is who has said they'll be able to put a bit in;

V_Ben ($10)
so1337 ($20)
Aaron ($20)
Renpatsu ($5)
Isomac ($5)
OdysseusVA (Fridge rating must be 4* or higher) ($25)
NumberThree
elfinke ($10)
Rainmaker
Chuck ($10, $15 if need be)
Myggen
Dizzy-4U ($10)
Will M ($20)
mmitt ($10)
sub_o
Zaph ($20)


Add your name to this list, and let's buy Matt Rorie a fridge! :D

We'll do this all by Paypal. In about an hour, we'll see what we have, choose a fridge + puppy stickers, and then I'll DM details so I can buy the thing and get it shipped out.
 
But with expensive shipping that brings it up to the others in price. That's some Amazon 101 shit.

I'd go 10, 15 if need be.

Things to consider: size, quality, look, and humor.
This is important. We need to think of something to do with it. Might mean Vben uses the extra money to have it shipped from his home instead of direct from amazon.

I live in the UK, man! That'd be a hell of a shipping expense :P

If someone USA-based wants to take the reins and do something like that, then it'd be amazing... but I can't do that :P
 
Get someone in US. Fattony or LiK maybe?

I'm in Germany, and my bank account is in Singapore, so it's way too expensive for me.
 
If there is need I can bumb my contribution to 10$. I'll leave to work now, so PM me details and I pay when I get off from the work.
 
So basically GB / GAF community is saying that all the contents of this book is real.

If that were true we'd of figured out a way to crowd-source going up to the accountants' floor vending machine, disconnect it and lower the temperature on the GB floor vending machine. Buying a small fridge is plan B.
 
Can someone give me a quick rundown on what happened? I missed the past few days...

Rorie brought a fridge to the office and it broke. He had a puppy in it. Brad is allergic to dogs so he got mad when Rorie let it out. Brad quit over the ordeal. Privileged white males acted awful on the internet in a non-related incident. Now Rorie needs a new fridge for his pup.

People on Twitter were accusing CBSi of being floorist with respect to their soda cooling practices, since the accounting floor gets 38-degree soda whereas the GB/Gamespot floor gets theirs at 48 degrees.
 
Okay, this crowd funding is actually going places. How much you think it would cost to have the fridge hand delivered by Emma Stone?
 
Right-o, sounds legit, no one should suffer the horrible effects of hypersodaplexia... Ten from me too. That's ten Australian dollars, so its actually worth something.

$10
That'd technically be $9.38.

Edit: Seriously though, if we don't get a fridge/cooler that is a lower temperature of the vending machine on the accounting floor then we have failed.

Stretch goal?

Revised list. Thats 200 $ confirmed.

I'm in the US so I could accept the raw materials, decorate the fridge, and ship it off to CBSi if no one else wants to.
