Donation Drive Update #3!

Section: 

We are now in the home stretch of what we're dubbing the 2015 Donation Drive. Thanks everyone for you support! We're very, very close to hitting our stretch goal to commission Jeff Beeman (doogiemac) to develop community game scheduling tools. Anything above and beyond that will be saved and stockpiled for the next cool thing we want to implement. We're open to ideas as the year progresses!

Since we're on Patreon now I'll give a little update on what the end of the drive actually means. Tagging donors (Patrons) will only happen during the drive proper so it'll remain an annual event. If you'd like to be tagged make sure you hit up the Patreon page and get your support registered by October 31st. After that, no further tagging will happen until this time next year.

As this is a monthly thing, also note you can go to the Patreon page and increase, decrease or cancel your support anytime. We won't be talking about the Patreon too much outside the bounds of the drive, but it's there if you want to adjust things. We'll also put out a quick reminder on that front at the end of the month when the next round of charges run through.

We will do one last tagging round at the end of October. The following list is up to date as of October 12th, so if you registered on or after that date you have yet to be tagged. If you're a Patron and your email on Patreon doesn't match your GWJ account email drop us a line with both so we can get you added or update you GWJ profile email and we'll get you on the next tagging round!

Also thanks to the $10+ patrons who attended the live Q&A this past weekend! It was fun hanging out with you all and bringing some of you into the conversation! Next live Q&A will be in December. We also had a great time tossing toilets in Half-Life 2 with $15+ patrons last night. If you have suggestions for games you'd like to play next month hit us up on the Patreon page.

Thanks to all of our glorious patrons! You represent the beating heart of this community. On behalf of everyone on the GWJ staff and the thousands of folks who enjoy the site every day, thank you.

Oh! If you got tagged and want to keep your old donor icon just drop me a PM.

Nooooooooooo!

It's possible I noticed that and I did nothing about it.

I got my owl!

Will the scheduling tools be open enough for the possibility of pen and paper RPGs? A few of us try to get those going from time to time, and this might make facilitation easier.... as well as draw in more victims... players.

They'll be platform agnostic, so I don't see why not.

Hey, look at that, I fixed my GWJ email address to be my regular one (matching my Patreon account), and I'm on the list now, just as was promised! Hooray!

Edit: And that cruise ship icon is pretty swank.

I was excited about the pen and paper, and this scheduling tool seems like a great idea. I've upped my pledge hoping this comes to fruition!

Looks like the Patreon has just reached the Play Date Organizer milestone!

Really looking forward to seeing this in action

Anything above and beyond that will be saved and stockpiled for the next cool thing we want to implement. We're open to ideas as the year progresses!

I suggest a GWJ Calendar featuring the crew cosplaying their favorite games! Shawn as Geralt! Julian as Garrus! Cory as Siegmeyer of Catarina! Sean as the guy holding the musket in EU IV! The possibilities are endless!

Allen as Octodad?

Or as a simulated goat.

I love that the screenshot captured me killing Elysium.

I had a blast tossing toilets with y'all.

YAY Game Scheduling Tools!

Toilet Toss was SO fun. Now we have the game organizer thing happening and we can do it AGAIN!
Also I would like to get a game of Monaco going sometime.

Also re-installing TF2...

Well done everyone!!
