Section:
I'll admit I had my doubts that we would reach the lofty goal of $25,000 when we kicked off the drive. Thanks to your contributions, we're going to be producing a special edition Gamers With Jobs digital magazine in the coming year! Plans are already in motion and our writers are excitedly banging rocks together to see if it inspires article ideas.
The drive is now over and thanks to you we've raised $27,000! We're already hard at work converting this energy into sweet, sweet content. Thanks so much to everyone who donated! We'll be doing a final donor list update next week (lots of tags to do yet) and sending out the donor gifts as well.

Hooray! Congrats.
Looking forward to the magazine.

We need a centerfold in this magazine. Or a Page 3 Girl or Guy.
Just got a great idea for an article based on the sound rocks make when banged together!

We should have a silly suggestion box for off-the-wall articles that can run as a back page entry. Kinda like PC Gamer magazine's last page, where silly stuff runs.
My suggestion? A piece on, 'What is the sound of one rock sitting?' That could be a counterpoint to the banging-rock idea.
I just want to know what would be on the GWJ magazine demo cd.
Special downloadable content for a sparkle pony space ship in FTL?

Clack clack, he stoned me down
Clack clack, I hit the ground
Clack clack, that awful sound
Clack clack, my baby rocked me down.

YAY! Can I go ahead and request a copy of the digital magazine in CD-ROM form?

Pfft. Floppy disk please.
What size? 8, 5 or 3.5?
http://badges.steamprofile.com/profi...
I was thinking eight.
8's are the floppiest

Floppy enough?

Yeah, but 5.25 are DOUBLE DENSITY.
EDIT: I think we just found our cover image.
Words... are a big deal.

Use a whole punch to make it double-side writable!
Certis: Quintin is both smart and attractive.
Fedaykin98: Good lord, I wouldn't have expected brilliance like that from that nemeslut Quintin Stone!
Yonder: It's weird to say this, but Quintin Stone may be the wisest person here.
If you need any actual models, I have some in all the sizes. I did get rid of my data cassettes a while ago, but I do still have a few music ones somewhere, but those won't help without a lot of 'shopping out the Men At Work logos.

I am surprised with the amount of money that has been donated. But actually even more by the number of people donating.

Ahem.
Do you have a high-res version of this please? I also would buy this in shirt or poster form.
Sorry, but the base image is only 600x600. If can get a larger image of Stan and also a larger image of 8" floppy then I could remake one for you. You could even choose the wording of the text and the font.
*Edit* I looked and I can get the floppy image in 1600x1600. All I need is a larger image of Stan and then I would be happy to make a larger image for you.

So awesome. I'm really happy to be a part of such a generous community, and I'm looking forward to the magazine. Great start to the day!
These things happen to other people.

Here's what I say, everyone who hasn't donated should now so we have a sudden large supply of cash that helps hit the 30,000 goal. Why not make this the most interesting year of GWJ ever with video content, a magazine, an article about Sparkle Ponies, AND a video recording of the GWJ Staff playing a tabletop board game.
Welp, Paypal won't let me update my credit card information so I won't be donating. I hate Paypal.
Edit: Got it to go through. I still hate Paypal. I did forget to put my forum name though since I was in a hurry to just get my payment in. And I an idiot.

Managed to get in before the deadline. *Phew* Kept putting it off till I forgot, then I saw Certis' tweet. Twitter managed to save the day.

But still Yay!
