Well if we do reach that, I think we need to decide on whom to send as the codex ambassador.So, are we going for the $10,000 mark now?

Note: Taluntain has advised that we may have a potential tax issue. If we go over certain amounts and limits in the account, PayPal starts asking for things. Things we don't necessarily have given we're relying on friends for a website that's run in our free-time. If it becomes a problem, we'll turn the account off and stop accepting donations but for now, just be aware we're looking into it. Will update when we know more.

Although Brian sure knows better, I think that's not the best idea. No matter how crazy the setting is, it still must be coherent. Dealing with 200 backer-created bullshit descriptions can become a pain in the butt. Considering how things are at the official forum, the devs would be better off with "You get to place a personalized LGBT NPC in our world and pick its particular sexual orientation".You get to place a personalized collectible artifact in our world and write its backstory!

The money isn't taken out until April 17th though, isn't it?Yeah I would just make the donation -- you can always increase it.

Furthermore - not sure if this has already been suggested - I think it would be a good idea to donate all the jewgold this drive collects to W2 to avoid butthurt amongst our donators. I know our servers could do with some love, but I'm thinking auctioning off the physical goodies when they arrive could probably bring in more jewgoldz to the KKKodex than any cut you could reasonably take from the donation drive.
The only problem with this plan, is the loot won't be here to auction off, for another 18 or so months.
This! Once they are in a bank account with no connection to paypal, you are free to continue!Transfer $5K to another account for the time being, between you and Taluntain?
Fargo specifically stated that this would be a turn-based game. I don't think that's going to change since that was at the core of his pitch to the crowd. If someone put their money down and is expecting a post-apoc Mass Effect 4, then that person is dumb.I think its best to send some rounded sum over, say 7,000 and then add the rest laters. I would also suggest sending it over with a note making sure that we are giving this for a turn based game, just to make sure we get our support for this design straight.
And then you guys could maybe ask about specifics of what we can get in terms of in game presence. At least in some generally more clear manner.
Yeah, the account is operated by a friend of Taluntain's (long story behind that going back to when it was established and limits Tal had in whatever backwards country it is he's in that I forget) but I've been assured the check is on its way. I've also opened a new PayPal account under my company's name which will handle the Codex stuff from now on (and I have an Accountant who can work out any tax issues). We're in the midst of setting that up now.I would get it out of PP as soon as possible. Especially since you have to donate to kickstarter through Amazon payments, not paypal.
