"the last drop of water that makes the bucket overflow" (poorly translated)

Hey, it's a nice drop.  Thanks for pushing it over $2000.

It's probably actually less than $2000 because of Paypal and so forth, but I'm no money changer.

In my country they have a saying:

"the last drop of water that makes the bucket overflow" (poorly translated)

We all donated and I wasn't implaying that my donation was somehow "better", I just said that I took the opportunity to be "the last drop"

What country might that be, pray tell?

Is bucket country specific? We have buckets over here in Britain, are they called something else, elsewhere?

I agree with Urist. Steampunk is like Darth Vader winning Holland's Next Top Model. It would be awesome but not something I'd like in this game.

Yeah. USA calls 'em buckets.

And I have definitely heard that saying before.

I have some too:
"Just because you cease to be blind does not meant that everything will become visible."
"The problem with trying to make things completely foolproof is that people usually greatly underestimate the ingenuity of complete fools." - Mark Twain
“Every decent man is ashamed of the government he lives under.” -H. L. Mencken
"The less you do, the less you are."
"No matter how well you talk, money talks better."
"Eating your words makes clean-up easier."
"Anything that takes more than 30 seconds to explain is magic."
"It is not because things are difficult that we do not dare, but because we do not dare, things are difficult." -Seneca Maior

Are we giving quotes for donations now instead of pictures?

Imagine a cool peice of sky-blue and milk-white marble about 3cm by 2cm and by 0.5cm, containing a tiny 2mm malacolite crystal. Now imagine the miles of metamorphic rock it's embedded in that no pick or chisel will ever touch. Then, imagine that those miles will melt back into their mantle long before any telescope even refracts an image of their planet. The watchers will be so excited to have that image too.
