I have buckets and buckets of cash lying around, but it's just that; cash. Which is unfortunately difficult to process through the intertubes. So until I track down someone who'll let me borrow a credit card, I'll still be a donation virgin. Workin' on it, though.

I don't know which country you live in, or how available they are there, but you could probably go pick up a prepaid gift card or something similar.

Rather than having them directly force you to mine adamantine, I would suggest that they give you strange moods that require adamantine. "Dig out the adamantine or Urist here goes insane and dies" is suitably vicious.

(It occurs to me that you can probably get "Lovecraft" as the random name of your fortress. That's when you know you're screwed.)

Money orders are the usual way of sending money, I think, if you lack a checking account.

Hey, I know I'm being Captain Obvious here... and sorry if it's been posted here and I missed it, but for those of you on the fence or limited by credit/debit cards...
You can also send mail of any kind, including but not limited to donation checks and money orders, to:

Tarn Adams
PO Box 2990
Silverdale, WA 98383-2990

Edit: You might be able to send cash if you hide it in a card... a hilarious dwarf themed christmas card.

I actually looked it up earlier after Reasonableman mentioned only having cash, and apparently it's not illegal to send cash through the mail.  Just not recommended by the USPS.

After all, anyone could take that cash.

You have to hide it well. Otherwise, kiss that cash goodbye.

If it's a significant amount, you're better off just turning it into a money order or a cashier's check at a bank.

Sent off the pathetic amount of six dollars. I hope to be able to send off another 30 dollars next month, but the upcoming Christmas days have really got me low on cash.

Donated an extra 24$, because it turned out I wasn't that low on money after all.

I actually won $20 in an forum competition a couple of months ago, I planned to donate it to DF, but I had to spend it =[.
And now I need to buy a new PC because mines about to bust, then a big ol' TV, which, for both, will take till christmas next year, minimum... Crappy english money system is crappy :B.
BUT. I will donate, eventually. (:

Oh, bugger it. I'm spending money now so I may as well donate again. Another $50 towards $3000.
