$8000 left. Jesus christ.
And I've done my part now.
EDIT: $3000
EDIT2: $2000
EDIT3: $1000

I don't even think my laptop has a disk drive.

And I'm guessing they've done it, by how Kickstarter's just died.
They made $1M in 24 hours.
By asking.
I don't normally think this, but for once I love humanity.

$400k was already the highest amount that has ever been asked for on Kickstarter.

Someone start a kickstarter to get kickstarter back up
I see no flaws with this plan

I'm tempted to do the kickstarter thing just because it's like the "hip" thing to do.
Lemme think about it for thirty days or so.
In the meantime, I'm finally going to see if the hand-held sewing machine my dad handed me half a year ago actually works. I'm really more of a needle and thread guy, but I figure it couldn't hurt to try, especially since I've been in a costuming slump lately.

You make it seem like it's a bad thing D:
Think of it as supporting Lissar getting a game that would make her cry with joy *thumbs up*

$15 guarantees you the game and a documentary. And to actually have input in the game.
...yeah.

It's already going to be 2.5x as good as they originally planned.

So I'm a cheapskate. Instead of buying cottony stuff to fill my felt tubing, I'm going to wad up paper towels and such. Hopefully, the stuff will be robust enough. Should be.

...well this is awkward.
Butbut you could help make it even good-er!
$15 is not so bad.
...well this is awkward.
It's just broken. If you look at it under the "Games" page you can still see the numbers going up.

Ha. It's on my list of things to almost certainly fund. I just have to get other money stuff out of the way first.
"HandyStitch" device seems to work. Looks like a very bulky stapler. Power plug looks like an audio plug. Gonna test it on some leftover felt.

The shitty thing about Kickstarters (not necessarily this, just in general) is that it's essentially a hole you throw money in to and hope it goes to the thing you're donating to.
Like one guy raised a $100k to make a movie about Neil Gaiman (with no actual prizes, just that the movie would probably be made) and then announced Gaiman wouldn't sign off on it.
I don't know if he was allowed to keep the money or not.

...is that a really weird (like really fucking weird) euphemism?
Yeah, I PROBABLY wouldn't throw money at an unknown.
For example, if it were Jane Jensen or Yahtzee, I'd be all over that.
I'm more hesitant about people with no track record.

You mean for wrist slitting? Why yes it is.

If they would commit to a Mac or iOS version, I would throw in my $15.
GameplayWhore

If they committed to Android, Linux, Wii or (possibly) Wii U, I'd jump in faster. Or if it were Java or Flash or somehow HTML5 based. I'd still pitch in for a good cause, though, even if I didn't get anything out of it.

Licensing fees/devkit costs would probably make up the bulk of the expense for a Wii U version.
GameplayWhore

Has there been any word on Nintendo's policy on that for this coming gen? I know that they have easier to work with APIs (or, well, APIs like the ones that devs already know how to work with), but I'm curious now how much licensing is going to be.
Woohoo, stitching test successful!

No word, but I don't expect it to change radically.
Also, this is now the best idea on the internet:

How can you be that obsessive?
* checks F1 thread obsessively*
damn it, you win.

They chose... *drum roll* Sam & Max: Season 3: Episode 2. Ah, yes. That sounds like a good place to start.

OOOOH ok that makes more sense.
I was thinking more...down south.
Also that thread about the dad "owning" his daughter is really depressing. Why is there so much bad parenting?

Ankle slitting wouldn't be as effective.

Lissar, have you spent your entire day thinking about this project
They blew the money on that party, didn't they? Our Kickstarter dollars at work :C

Why aren't you on IRC, by the way?
The answer better not have anything to do with Kickstarter. :O
I'll be there in a bit. I'm trying to finish up some work I put off.
... don't judge me!
