Big thanks for all the support so far! We're way (way) behind on tagging thanks to a technical snafu on Elysium's machine. This "technical snafu" could be code for "playing WoW in my underwear" but I'm willing to suspend my disbelief ... for now. We will get your tags in place soon and want to thank you all for your support and patience. In case you missed it, our once a year donation drive is happening through the month of September. It's your chance to help us carry on with the business of running the awesome daily content on the site and the weekly podcast. Did I mention our awesome donor prize draw? There are fabulous prizes to be won including a console of your choice and a very (very) limited edition Bioshock figure signed by our good pal Ken Levine. Hit the main post for all the details!
Read on for a list of donors we've tagged so far. Like I said, we have a ton left to do, so don't worry if you're not on here yet. Thanks again for all the good thoughts and donations everyone! It means a lot.

Short list, Elysium must be playing a lot of WoW in his underwear.

Very short. Assuming Elysium didn't just spill Corona on his PC, I say temporarily deactivate his WoW account until you get caught up on tagging.

Agreed. I want that watch.

Donating in hopes that the image of Elysium playing WoW in his underwear is purged from my brain forever.
Boop.
He's probably too busy rubbing money on his nipples to update the accounts. It's our fault, of course, for donating a pile of cash for him to jump up and down in.

OK, donated on the first reminder this year. Donation sent and I've added to the flood in Elysium's inbox.
But, if I give up my key, how do I get into the executive washroom?

Whew, I made the cut! And my plan of buying a shiny new PS3 with WoW gold seems to be working >.>
Edit: And my very own gold-plated Weighted Companion Cube. Nice

Let's just hope he hasn't blown it all on a solid gold, diamond-encrusted Corona crown.
Actually, that would be awesome. Frivolous, but still awesome.

Sweet cube! Do you think maybe I could take it for a spin some time?
Left GWJ for good.
Indeed. On the next live podcast we'll see this giant wall of mini-Corona cases behind him, along with a thank-you note from the company.

Hey Elysium, I can always remote in again and try to fix up your system if you're having issues with it. That is of course assuming I wouldn't just end up watching a raid.

Look, I'm just going to come out straight with it. It's a rookie mistake, and one I'm not proud of, but ...
I didn't save an excel file I was working on with about 100 names added, and I had a crash that corrupted the file and I had to revert back to an older version. I think we've all learned something today. I've learned to save more often (again), and you've learned not to trust me with electronic equipment.

No worries, Elysium, it happens to everyone.
Professionally offended. Does not understand jokes. Needs a man to explain them to me.
For anyone curious, tagging is a two stage process. Elysium collects all the real names and which forum names they're associated with, and then I take the list and apply the tags to the various accounts. I have to maintain a separate database just for tracking tags every year. Alllll the way back to the very first ones.
And then we sprinkle some love into the mix. That's the secret ingredient.

I guess it was a bit late to hope for gold-plated bnpedersen monkeys with rubik's cube bras.
There's always next year.

I too donated on the first reminder. Can't believe this damn month is going by so quickly.

Just donated as well
I think it was Carlin who said, "I don't know whether to sh*t or wind my watch. Guess I'll sh*t on my watch."
Stone thongs are almost as important to preventing the spread of elves as lead toys are.
I'd been wondering how they'd up the Yacht, but I guess a Gold Plated Companion Cube would do that.

Is the tagging being done in any random order or by order of donating?
Edit: Never mind, just got the watch.
I wish you guys would stop encouraging him.

Ok, just did a mess of tags! Still more to do, but I've updated this main post with the updated list of donors. Woo!

I was curious about that as well actually. I'm not in any particular hurry for the Executive Washroom key or anything. But I've had a lot of since I sent in my donation, and if I don't get that key soon I may have to 'visit' that potted plant over there in the corner...

What is that icon Kepheus? Is that the elusive 7 year donor icon??

At last, I have the golden key! Now I can behold the beauty and grandeur of the GWJ Executive Washroom while dropping a deuce in a gold-plated toilet.
Ahh, the good life.
