No kidding - he's even going to get a couple broadcasts the day of, so I'm really hoping that gets the non-forum going community.
This server can drum up an insane amount of money for things when given a reason to do so - the Pantheon fund drive is a prime example of this, with the Project 1999 donations possibly exceeding $40,000 in less than a month - and definitely breaking the $35,000 mark. When I was initially typing up the donation rewards for us to all talk about, I did the global rewards thinking it'd be impressive if we did 10k - I never expected we'd hit nearly $50,000, and if the Kickstarter had been successful the server would have had a month long experience bonus on Red and Blue. That's some serious buying power - Project 1999 could start feeding small and impoverished third world countries if that kind of money were put towards charity each month.
Tons of people showing their support by making the item pool even better. To try and incentivize more donations, it might be smart to package the cheaper items together. Donating to a good cause should, by itself, be a sufficient reward, but I understand that if you were to win the raffle and get something you can't use and worth little platinum, while the guy next to you got a fungi, you may feel a bit irked at the outcome. Just a thought I had after seeing even more items being donated - you should of course do what you feel is right in the end.
Just about one more day to go until P99 cures Leukemia!
