Over 11k! I went from wabbly knees yesturday to shock this morning. What an amazing show of community.

Excellent, just excellent.

Whew! Glad to hear EN World's out of the woods -- that's a lot of green! Way to go, folks!

Imagine what we could do with a bit more time, organization, and product donations. Morrus -- next time (which looks to be several years off at the current rate) drop the "stiff upper lip" bit and give us a bit more warning -- I bet we could really blow your socks off (though at $10k+ and climbing, I'll bet the socks are already on the other side of the flat!). A little annual fund drive sounds like a worthwhile idea.

I have 13 more donations sitting in my mailbox right now. Will get to add them up/do record-keeping this afternoon.

Assuming the $11,648.39 number is still valid (I am sure the total is higher now), that is ~ $40 US on average per contributor...pretty awesome!

just threw in my (small) donation. Wish it could have been more.

It's probably too late I think for this drive, (and it ain't all that grand of a prize anyway) but I will throw this out there for the Story Hour readers:

Next user to pledge $50 or more (and post back to this thread) gets to have an NPC based on them appear in the Medallions d20 campaign (and Story Hour) in the next upcoming episode (Episode VI).

(And if jonrog or P-Kitty offers something similar, i bet they could ask for a lot more...hint, hint)

Arrrgggh !!!
Yesterday was the first day since Eric started the boards that I didn't visit.
And look at what I missed.
Another $20 will be on the way when I get home today.

I think my online family is great.

But so much shorter and less obtrusive.

My donation is on it's way. Good call allowing PayPal donations!

Joe B. -

Just remember to deduct your credit card transaction costs before you release a "final" number.

Those merchant services fees may end up being in the $ hundreds.

What an awesome community, though!
