There's an anecdote in the Bible that I think is quite appropriate here (not wanting to get religious; I just can't think of a better example :P) - Jesus sees rich men donating a lot of money to a church, and then he sees a very poor woman put in a tiny amount. He then turns to his disciples and says that that woman has given much more than the rest, because they give only a small portion of their vast wealth, while she had given all that she had, and that she is more blessed than they as a result, even though they gave much more in absolute quantity.<br /><br />In the same way, I think it would be very discouraging to someone who only gave, say, $10 or $20 to see people giving $500 or $1000. Every brony is a man or woman of different means, and I think we should be celebrating everyone equally, not singling out those who probably had more to give in the first place.GabuExhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03448769646298940650noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-911249991271887730.post-48302295315969762082011-12-29T20:07:21.770-05:002011-12-29T20:07:21.770-05:00Shame I've only heard of you Humble Bronies ti...Shame I've only heard of you Humble Bronies till' now!

Derock: Wow, you'...gclaw: blushingtwilight.jpg<br /><br />Derock: Wow, you're right, our average for donators was like $17 per pony. That's pretty amazing! And I'm still considering if I should or shouldn't share the top ten donation amounts or not. Hmmm...<br /><br />SpecLad: Donations! The only reason I waited until the last 30 seconds to send the last payment to the Bundle was because we were SO close to hitting $16K. I was confident I could finish the form in time and waited... and it paid off when the very last donation before the buzzer was just enough. :D<br /><br />Eric, BusinACE: Thank you!!Cupshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11750876754748541703noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-911249991271887730.post-40601089013964397582011-12-28T14:29:39.406-05:002011-12-28T14:29:39.406-05:00So sorry that I waited too long, but at least we&#...So sorry that I waited too long, but at least we'll have a sum to kick-start the next bundle!

Hahaha wow, just wow. And I least expected it to reach nearly TWICE as much as Notch's amount.<br /><br />And the average Linux user paid $10. I approximate we have an average of $16. That's amazing. We didn't even have any incentive like getting $100 worth of games.<br /><br />I guess now we really owe something to the donators.DeRockProjecthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12190521474083734891noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-911249991271887730.post-38742000138349429912011-12-27T22:41:42.309-05:002011-12-27T22:41:42.309-05:00Daaaaamn, son.

I got the sense that notch's contribution was a bit of a rock against the beehive of kindness and generosity, but I don't think I ever expected this kind of result. Remember when you said that $10,000 was feasibly possible? Yeah, about that... :PGabuExhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03448769646298940650noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-911249991271887730.post-6717750834866689222011-12-27T19:52:52.948-05:002011-12-27T19:52:52.948-05:00i just want to say thanks to everypony who donated...i just want to say thanks to everypony who donated, but an especially big thanks to Cupcakes for putting this thing together, if it wasn't for you none of this could have happenedgclaw4444https://www.blogger.com/profile/07854845406449780149noreply@blogger.com
