Notch Overtakes HBB for Top Contributor

Notch, dastardly creator of Minecraft, has swooped in with a diabolically generous donation of $8542 to the Humble Indie Bundle #4, overtaking the Humble Brony Bundle as not just the top contributor on this bundle, but the holder of the record for top contribution of all time!

Except, you know what? In the few hours since he made his donation bronies have donated over $800 to the cause, pushing us from $7000 to $7850, over halfway to overtaking Notch's tremendous contribution!

EDIT:  We're now up to $8050 for Humble Indie Bundle #4, less than $500 away from out-generous-ing Notch!!

Now is the time to really spread the word, to reach out to every brony you know who likes to give to charity, who likes gaming, or just likes to do something good. This is the best kind of competition: friendly competition where every dollar spent and every ounce of effort goes to people who deserve it! I don't know about you, but that makes me feel really, really competitive.

We CAN do this! We WILL do this! But not without your help! And with our total across both Bundles now in excess of $9000 the lofty goal of $10,000 total raised is within our grasp... In the immortal words of Rarity Unicorn... It. Is. ON.

    I donated a tiny bit during the Humble Introversion Bundle however I don't believe you made another donation between then and it's end so it probably went towards the current Bundle. My PayPal is basically empty but I managed to make a second small donation (which changed it from basically empty to completely empty), I wish I could've done a bit more but hopefully you'll still manage to overtake Notch.

    Donated $20. If we get enought money to win, don't update the total until last minute, we don't want Notch to counter us again.
