It's under an hour until the Humble Indie Bundle ends, the total contributions hasn't reached one million and I haven't bought it yet.

This time, you won. Congratulations! I'll be PMing the Bundle to you shortly!

EDIT: I feel a bit sorry for Pillow_Killer, lost by 14 seconds.

[Myroc]

Yay.

[Pillow_Killer]

I hate you myroc. Guess Ill just pirate them, then.

Muhaha.

Nah, seriously, you'd probably have won if I hadn't had the "Post Reply" screen up at the moment the hour counter switched over. It was a nice try, I admit.

[Pillow_Killer]

I had it too, but I typed the time and amo9unt of money, and then your reply popped up when I tried to submit them essage, so. Already found a nice download. Wow, Aquaria is pretty big.

You're seriously pirating a game that was as cheap as 1 penny where the proceeds go towards charity?

[LASD]

Aaaand, blammo! Gift sent and the Bundle is already over a million! Awesome!

Well, it's better than leeching it off a buyer's link. Quote from the the guy who set this up:

I do have one humble request though --

If you are deadset on pirating the bundle, please consider downloading it from BitTorrent instead of using up our bandwidth!

Here's the blog post he wrote about people pirating the bundle.

Hey, what am I supposed to do - it doesnt accepts my debit card for some reason. I'd buy it if it would work.

Awesome!

The biggest single donation is $3333.33 according to the top list. I wonder if someone has found a way to fake a transaction because that's an insane amount of money for 5 games.

Oh, and All the games except World of Goo just went opensource due to raking in $1,024,756

The devs got 140K each. Child's play and EFF 160K each. Basically means that people generally trended towards giving devs money over the charities.

EDIT: They just extended the deadline by 3 days.

Wait, Aquaria is going open source?

[Volatar]

Awesome! I love open source!

[olemars]

Lugaru just opened up and reportedly someone sent in a patch after less than an hour.

Aquaria, Gish and Penumbra (Overture) will also open up (according to Wolfire, I hope they asked the other devs first ). World of Goo apparently won't, but that's understandable.

[Volatar]

I hope they asked the other devs first

They did.
