Unofficial Tex Murphy

It looks like a $5,000 backer went up to $10,000 then back down to $5,000 based on redcat's numbers. I wouldn't worry too much. For all we really know they already contributed $10,000+ and just switched reward tiers...

And that backer could be like me as I am in between 2 tiers right now. So, they could be at $5001, or $9,999 for all we know, and they are only eligible for the $5K reward. Their financial situation could have changed...

No stress. It's been a pretty good day since we're quite close to hitting a total of $10,000 for the day. 68% is certainly a given.

Looks like we just got a new $1000 backer. Could be new backer: Gunslinger.

Just hit 68%!

Alright! Now I am feeling much more comfortable.

Still a ways to go, but we're looking good.

"To date, Project Fedora has raised nearly 2/3 of its funding goal, with 18days left before the fundraiser ends. What's the catch? If the goal of$450,000 is not met by the deadline on June 16, NONE of the donated funds will be available to bring back our favorite P.I. So, in typical fashion, Tex finds himself in a race against time – but you can help him beat the odds and emerge triumphant!"

~ Some Tex-gram I got today.

It's hard to resist this kind of plight. And I'll say it again: every detail of the campaign has been amazingly professional and well thought-out, ambitious and passionate. It IS a race against time against odds - and even without this aspect, this character maintains such a great appeal. I'm not intimately familiar as many of you with the entire Tex mythos, but this kind of protgagonist, setting and genre definitely resonates with me!

Wine me, dine me, we are at 69%!!!!!!

And closing in on 70%...

We're gonna need a new thread ...

Yep. Do you have a fun title for it?
70% and rollin' along? 70%, we've made a dent?

As Nilo would say: "70%! Tex can pay his rent!"
