Original Sin Statue for RPGWatch

I only gave from my entertainment money, but I tapped it out. No movies, casinos, or fancy restaurants for the next month. Hidden is going crazy, but since it's in support of a European game, his love of Larian makes some sense. For me, I just had the funds and it was something to do. Pretty atypical of me, but I'd do it again for something in the vein of Skyrim. I'm an open world guy, so something like Nehrim, made by native English-writing developers would get serious consideration.

crpgnut you were going crazy, too - thank you for that.

PS:
Nehrim was great - this team is working on a new mod.

I didn't like Nehrim's story at all. It was extremely lame. What they had mastered though, was level design. The world of Nehrim felt so much more alive than Oblivion. I truly think that Bethesda learned a lot from SureAI. While I'm not sure I would back a SureAI project unless they hired an English writer, I would love to see more projects of that scope.

As far as going crazy, with a nickname of nut, it only fits :)

Some folks gave from their little and they'll have to do without something. They sacrificed. I really didn't. I'm just fortunate to have a good job, and not much to spend it on. No kids, no mortgage, no car payments, etc. I did have to pay the taxman, or I might have given a little more. April is a crappy time for a kickstarter for those of us who have to pay, but for folks who get money back, it might be a good time :)

Courtesy of HiddenX: All the donations made from $7,500 up to $10,000 will be doubled!!!
This means that if you donate $100, you will be listed as having donated $200.

This is the time to get yourself on that list (or higher on it) and receive even more goodies.

Donated a little more. Got a great deal on materials that I bought to finish the basement, saved about 100$. That was already budgeted and I couldn't pass on Hidden's offer...So here we go!

Though I fear Im not gonna be able to contribute much more, if at all, hope everyone else(who can afford to) gives even a little bit :)

Nice Galaad - you are a Knight of the Empire ;)

This is a chance for all with lesser ressources to join the Watch and gaining ranks!

-> unused ressources of this fund will still goto our fundraiser at the 10. May
-> but in this case we would remain below 10K - so use up my whole funding!

Doubled! How can I participate in this spending frenzy…

At once I searched all my pockets hoping to find some extra coins, some forgotten banknotes… Maybe in the jeans in the laundry basket? My coat, hanging in the hall?
I looked into the mirror… O well, Myrthos is right I guess, my naked face is not so bad. So no mascara and eyeliner for me the coming month AND the rest of the year. ;)

Yes, yes, yes! Here I am. Here's some more. Money, money, money!
 
Omega - you are a beauty - no need for such things as mascara - maybe I could use a bit - dry skin you know...

*sigh* There goes the money I was planning on using to buy Skyrim: Dragonborn (now that Skyrim is finally finished - I've been holding off playing it, waiting for the DLC to all be out) for… but HiddenX's generosity deserves to be met, and RPGWatch has been my favourite PC gaming website for years, yet I've never before given anything back. I guess I can always find somebody to give away my third copy of D:OS to (two through KS, one through here) - my brother quite likes RPGs too.

I knew there are still old Watchers hiding in the cellars and outskirts - come on - follow enhornings example - join us! ;)

Only $808 to go for 10K, because of mathmatics (some sort of magic)

$8,382 + 2 x $808 = $10,000

Wow, HiddenX! I appreciate that you put your funds in this through the Watch. With this amount of money you could easily have gotten one of those top tiers with all the goodies all for yourself, but you chose to put it into this community effort, I think that's pretty cool.
Unfortunately I already put all I could afford in the last doubler…
I hope some watchers still consider a donation, big or small.

Hah, nice PR trick there HiddenX! Since you already offered to pop the last 1250 from 8750 -> 10.000 you were essentially doubling the amount we got in from 7500, but this way it'll probably get more people to contribute.

It worked on me at least, I'll put in some more soon.

Indeed it works, we are leading the Codex again ;)
Although admittedly, without the efforts of certain members, we wouldn't have had a chance...

Fine, fine. I threw in a few more dollars myself.
Your devious ploy is working, HiddenX. :)

We crossed the $9,000 mark, currently at $9,192. Just a bit more than $400 needed to cross the $10.000 mark.

Thanks Hidden X!

In game names reference to RPG Watch and refereeing back to Game of Thrones does make scene and sound pretty cool.

Wonder how my last post ended up being posted BEFORE posts that I've read before posting. Must be my brain getting old or that I have precognitive powers, or that there's still something strange going on :p
