No pride here. Just looking at the numbers. And I must say, pessimism and excessive worry has surely killed more dreams than optimism. :wink:
Hmm, maybe you're right.
Matthew 17:20 wrote:And Jesus said unto them, Because of your unbelief: for verily I say unto you, If ye have faith as a grain of mustard seed, ye shall say unto this mountain, Remove hence to yonder place; and it shall remove; and nothing shall be impossible unto you.

This book has everything! :) So many conflicting everythings. :|

But that's the beauty of it, Jane. Some of us find hope in uncertainty and ambiguity! :lol:

Right! Using the sports almanac for personal gain totally makes sense! Marty should've just done it anyway.

No no its for the gain of everyone in the world! The world will be a better place for everyone if we have a Tex Murphy game and not only that an even bigger longer one!

Hey, what happened to that dreaded E3 slowdown? We're already at $9,300 for the day and if we're lucky we'll even hit our needed 4,500 backers to free Tex!

If we see no E3 slowdown, and still have Chris's AMA on Thursday, I'm going to project we hit $450,000 between Friday and Sunday leaving plenty of time for stretch goals.

Sheesh, spoiler alert, Sai. You didn't have to tell them about the fate of Gallifrey. At least you didn't inform them that it was the Doctor who caused it all.

(d'oh!)

I thought that the slowdown wasn't supposed to happen until Tuesday.

Edit: Ooh, after I typed "slowdown" I was reminded of the song by Richie Havens. "You know that everything's a showdown."

E3 started today. Kotaku is already filling up with E3 news, so I imagine it would start today if it's going to happen at all. I could be wrong.
