After last night's boost as a result of the Crazy 888 update, we now only need $8,300 per day from here on to hit $450,000. Tomorrow morning at 2am (eastern) marks the midpoint of this campaign. It will be 16 days down, 16 to go.

Geez, why do all these cool things happen when the east coast is asleep. ;-) I just drooled a little over those added reward tiers. :mrgreen: I just hope Chris J doesn't lose his voice over the next year with all this talking he's going to be doing! LOL.

Hey, it's Peter Carl Fabergé birthday today! Fabergé: one of the last things Tex remembered...

If Aaron is to be believed Chris never stops talking. Especially when there's a camera or mic around. LOL

I wish they'd added something cool for 888 dollars so I could be convinced into upping my bid to that or 1000 even (after all, it's only a small jump from 888 to 1k) as it is now I'm not convinced to go to the next bracket since I don't really use a lighter ever.

So, what in particular does the sentence in bold mean?? He does mention that Tex was supposed to "join him" for this update, but he hasn't "arrived yet" and says it's a "little strange"... Is this alluding to something besides saying hey, Tex is missing and once we get to $450K that will solve the mystery? Or is this some other kind of mystery? Maybe I'm looking too much into it. Although, I'm surprised no one on the KS boards has brought this up.
Video Update #11 wrote:3 New Tiers inspired by our "Crazy 888" members!

Oh... and a new Tex Murphy mystery?

I took it as a joke because noone has seen Chris and Tex Murphy in the same room together (as TOP SECRET INFO: they're the same person ;) ) . It'd be funny and super awesone if they suprimposed Tex Murphy next to him though and had them chatting to each other. :lol:

add $38.88 to my donation to put me into the $188.88 bracket.

Tex must rise, and Radio theater must return!


Remember folks, wear your Fedora's in support of Tex!

LockeCole - I'm at the same tier as you then. I've always planned to up my pledge, but like you I wouldn't often (if ever) use the lighter. But I do like the original signed comic, and love the driver's licence. I'd love it if I could be a mutant on it (though would mutants be allowed a 'new San Francisco' driver's licence?).

I think it will all depend on how close we get to target and how much my wife will let me get away with. ;-)

At this rate though we are well on our way to exceeding target. So many wonderful fans out there, and I love that the troll on the PC Gamer site got banned. Would love to see the same on Gamespot ;-)

We are currently working on an endorsement from Barry Corbin (Thanks to marso84), Michael York, Archie Ellis should be appearing in an update shortly, along with Big Jim Slade aka Richard Norton. Thanks for the interest! We are doing what we can to get these guys to let people know that they enjoyed working on these projects.
OMG!! SO AWESOME! :mrgreen:

Yes! I'm glad they are moving forth with some good suggestions! I wish I had waited to post my stupid comment which is right below theirs! :P
