Donations and the New Version
« on: February 04, 2010, 02:52:57 pm »

I donated $10 when the Z axis version was released and I plan on donating $20 when the military arc update is released. Toady One you will be rewarded.

While I would love to support DF, I currently lack any form of income aside from scholarship grants. Which I kinda need for school.

Hopefully when I graduate, I'll get a job and can finally give Toady the support he deserves.

Promised myself that along time ago. As to how much exactly, I'll decide that when I get my hands on the new version. The glee should triple the donation amount. :D

Unfortunately I'm under employed and spending as little as possible because every couple dollars I spend means a day less I can live abroad. Once I finally have a real job then I'll totally donate.

Also to NPR and various charities.

Or so I keep telling myself.

Unless Toady is about to get evicted from his house, or something.

I'll throw 300 Danish Kroner his way ($55), the amount I usually give for a very good game.
Dwarf Fortress are amongst the game I've pressed most time out of, beneath WoW (Slaved for like 3 years) and RuneScape (Back when Goatse was shockingly new), and probably on height with Warcraft III, maybe higher :)

I've gotten so many hours out of this game, I've tried to find other games who focuses on just one of the many things DF "masters" (Lackluster when you read about 1.0, compared to everything else it's Godlike), but they're few.

If you read this Toady, rock on and please don't ever stop :)

Hell yes I will.  I think I can spare $20.  I'm supporting 2 households and I only work part-time but I've been meaning to put money down for this game anyways.  I work a late night shift in a server room watching systems that rarely go down and Dwarf Fortress has helped keep me reasonably sane these last few months.

I posted a joke bet in the Release Pool thread that I was in for $20 on Feb 29th. I'd been planning on donating anyhow, since I finally have the spare cash.

Most likely, unless I go horribly broke. DF warrants regular donations, and I say that about very, very few games.

I'm jobhunting right now.  I've earmarked some of my eventual second paycheck for a donation.

I'd donate, but I'm currently a NEET, and therefore have no money.

I donated 30 about a month ago for the version, when I thought it was coming sooner. (I'm an optimist).

If the new version is as good as I expect (and I really doubt it won't), my next donation is for improved sieges/smarter enemies.
