    Question, I don't want to pay an extra $10 for international delivery (I'm a student, money is tight) and I don't particularly care about getting a fridge magnet. Can I do something to let someone know that I'll just take the pdf files and not pay postage?

    Keep in mind that x*10$ + y*7 of the total sadly will go straight to international shipping. That leaves the pledge at a good less than what the gross total gain will show.

    For teh 10dollar thing you only pay 10 bucks for the PDF's and the magnet, nothing extra. But when the adresquery comes you can ask for no Magnet.

    In a Kickstarter comment, Rich has specifically given permission for this usage. At the moment, it's the second comment here.

    I'm guessing "adresquery" means "asking for your address"? Cool, I'm learning Dutch!

    But Duskranger is right: you don't pay any shipping on the $10 pledge regardless of where you are in the world. Though if you really don't want the magnet, just say that on the survey they'll send you once the drive closes.

    Nope sorry, if I was speaking Dutch I would say vragen om je adres (which means: Asking for your adress).

    But I wrote it down in a wrong way, since I meant indeed what you thought I meant, if you want to learn Dutch though, shoot me a PM :P

    Aww. And here I thought I had special language skills. :) But now I've looked it up, so I know: "question/query = vraag"! There. NOW I've learned some Dutch.

    I don't think we'll break 1M, but the end total will still be nothing short of amazing.

    Hmm. About 102,000 to go until we reach 1,000,000. Let's hope there'll be more prizes, Im sure everyone wants to give the Giant more money.

    I think it may have a chance to hit $1,000,000. In the past 9 hours, it has gone up like $10,000 to $20,000 ( I was real tired when I went to bed so don't remember the exact amount). If you go with $15,000 every 9 hours by the time the drive ends we're looking at a little over $1M. I know the rate will more than likely slow down before the end, but Rich also said there will be another reward level, so this will boost pledges again.

    The average hourly intake to hit $1m has dropped to $1436/h.

    And what is the current average of money raised per hour?

    I hope there will be more rewards added. A good surge could easily send this up to 1000k

    EDIT: Achievement Unlocked: It's over Nine (Hundred) Thousand!

    Hmm, if he expands the character crayon drawings category, I may abandon my autographed books in favour of getting them, since I got a little cashback from the legal fees for my mortgage which makes up for having to replace my car radio.

    I've got to be honest, I... I kind of expected Rich to stay away for making the big one million a goal. It'd be too much of a disappointment if it wasn't reached.

    But...

    But...

    We might just make it. We really, really could.

    And that would be absolutely amazing .

    WOW Poor Rich is going to get no sleep in the next 68ish hours. Adding new pledge levels every few hours and a new mystery prize at $1,000,000 and a possible mystery prize 7.5. I'm even more postive we'll hit the $1,000,000 mark.

    EDIT: It's gone up $2000ish in like 5 minutes. WOOT
