    I think it should be active for the duration of WL2 Kickstarter minus one or two days. Who knows, maybe we will make it to $10K if the word gets around NMA, DAC, ITS etc.

    Yes. I believe we'll contact Fargo to negotiate everything ASAP once we hit $5000 -- but we should definitely keep it running, because the more money we collect, the more expansive our in-game presence will be. :)

    The $10,000 level packages are already sold out -- I'm sure you could persuade Fargo to do it anyway should the Codex total get that high. Well, the shrine not the party part. And more copies for those that donate but don't have one already via the kickstarter.

    For 10k we should ask to add bloom and depth of field to the game.

    You know, for immersion and emotional engagement.


    Edit: holy hell, I left work yesterday and it was at 650k, now is 925k. Definetly the game will happen, target of 900 passed

    You guys could always donate the $5000 to Kickstarter to secure a statue and then keep the fundraiser running.

    Still haven't donated anything to the statue fund. Feels bad, but literally have no money.

    $15 more donated to the Codex.

    I'm done with you people.

    Bunch of freaks . . . You couldn't even sell me PC Gamer demo disks! Or, for that matter, submit a backup of the FanMadeFallout site to the Internet Archive or worthy torrent host.

    Heh - the Codex statue's been mentioned on NMA, SomethingAwful, RPS and Neogaf, and at least one friendly sucker in each thread has said they wouldn't mind chipping in to see it happen. Well...not RPS, they mostly just complained about the site. But still. Nice to see.


    Also donated.

    Pledged on Kickstarter and donated to the Codex.

    The thing that motivates me most personally is this:

    A shame they won't get Tim Cain to work on this as well

    All the money paid to the RPG Codex PayPal account for the duration of the W2 Kickstater will go to supporting W2, that includes account upgrade payments. You'll sill get your months-worth of patron tag, but that doesn't mean that it doesn't go to W2 and the Codex statue.

    Thought I'd finally sign up an account since I've been lurking this forum since... forever, or probably when NMA didn't give me enough scepticism towards FO3. Hey, turns out I had an account on my email, what do you know.

    Anyway, I'm going to chip in 20$ or so.

    The bigger question I'm sure is on everyone's minds is - did Prosper donate one of the 5K donations to have a statue to his art?

    Threw in a little bit of money, thought it was about time I paid my way here and after seeing the abysmal ending to Mass Effect 3, and hearing Obsidian (one of my favourite studios) is falling on hard times... well, I want to see the old guys come back.
