I bought in for $30 dollars, I said I got in on second tier before but I don't think I mentioned dollar amount. Guess it's over now though.

Is that Mike Morhaime?

thepopstalinist posted:

He co-founded Blizzard!

Late to the party, but:

Brian Fargo (well, his company Interplay) was Blizzard's original publisher (including the period when Blizzard was still named Silicon and Synapse), starting with Morhaine's very first game, RPM racing, and including most of the games they made up to and including the first Warcraft game.

Interplay was also the first publisher for then little-known companies Treyarch and Xatrix (who later became Grey Matter and then later still merged with Treyarch).

So you have Brian Fargo to thank for not only Wasteland, but also (indirectly) for giving a jump start to what would later become the 800 lb Gorillas of World of Warcraft and Call of Duty.

:eng101:

Also late to the party on this, but RagingBoner should add me to the tally for $50 on the kickstarter. Donated the first day, but hadn't really thought it was important to list it here; but since some people apparently are keeping track, there it is.

I will probably try a cheater run of Wasteland one more time before the new one is out.

Would this be something like "give all characters climb, get NPC without climb, go to [special climb spot], use something to hold down move keep, go to bed, wake up with Supreme Jerk team?"

Or just a straight up "edit characters and give them shitloads of cash/items/skills" kind of cheat?

I dropped $15 on this yesterday. I never played the first game and the only Fallout I've played is New Vegas, but if the result is anything like that, I'll be satisfied.

Good news, Fallout 1 and 2 are better than Fallout Scrolls 3 and NV.

I'd probably be down if we can get a group rate and they were decently priced.

I'm trying to decide if I want to wait for the LP or try to track down a copy myself.

I figure it'd be about $3 shipping roughly, so about $15 each if we can get 25 orders. I'd be down for that and would probably get 2 if we could get it to the 100+ tier.

Legitimately amazed. A thing of titanic beauty. It is not often that I would be involved with something on the Internet and then want to wear a shirt about it. This is such a time.

Great color, too. Not boring white or stereotype black!

No but seriously, look at that shirt. That is a better t-shirt than most professionally-designed shirts I have ever owned. No, than I have ever seen. I LOVE IT. OH drat.

QUICK EVERYBODY RESERVE LIKE SIX

Edit: I also like that my browser starts choking when it tries to scroll past that post. "NO DUDE SERIOUSLY LOOK AT THIS I REFUSE TO GO ANY FARTHER UNTIL YOU DO"

How are their international shipping fees? I'm assuming it's a US company?

After looking at the way the have it set up, I'd have get the order shipped to me, and then ship them all individually after I recieve them.

A bit clunky, but they have a much larger print area and far better print quality than any other site I checked.

With that pricing, I doubt they'd mail out individual orders. We would have to have someone buy them and then ship them out to us.

It is kind of amazing how cheap the shirts get that quickly. The 25-to-100 tier is a great price for an awesome shirt, and yeah, as Young Freud said, the 100+ tier is so ridiculous.

If you're willing to do that, it would be awesome to own that piece of art you created (which could only be more accurate if Quarex's name took up the whole thing/was repeated multiple times).

And won't shipping charges increase like WHOA depending on where it's going to? I live in Malaysia, hence my desire to not spend overmuch this month- buying the t-shirt is okay, but the shipping charges might eat into my emergency funds, and that's not.
