Donated. Let's hope my math was right...

5$ usd from me. God knows I've dl'd the bloody thing that many times, I think I'm still coming away on top. Thanks for making such a great game all. A thread like this is the push I needed to register with the forum.

Considering that EB is the game that enriched me the most and that I play it more than any other game for around 1.5 years, the donation of 50 $ that I just made seems like the least I can do...

Thanks to everyone that contributed to making EB the legend that it has become...

Why doesn't the EB team consider selling merchandise such as shirts, hoodies, mouse pads, etc with EB themes on the merchandise? I am sure you will have tons of customers and I will be one of them!

There are definitely more than 100,000 people playing EB and about 5,000 of them hardcore fans who would pay a considerable price for stuff with EB on it. This way you'll never have to worry about donations and plus you will have extra money to further improve EB or just some for yourself!

The minute we make some money "for ourselves" as you say, is the minute CA can shut us down, or make further games of its franchise unmodifiable.

This is a perfect situation as it is. CA makes the games moddable, we can help improve them. Why jinx it? I don't think any of us are in it for the money.

So is there no way of doing it from the perspective of covering costs, and a surplus goes to charity?
Hell, give any profits to CA and they might make stuff even more modable.
I'm another who would like to buy the EB goodies for me and my kid.

We've discussed it internally and we've decided against it. You may see them as prizes in other competitions, but there are no plans in the short- medium- or long-term future.

We are again somewhat short, this time about 250$. Even though the USD has risen lately, we hope that you can make a small donation to keep our server up. Thank you.
