ADOM II development donation drive

On reflection, I should've plugged this a good while ago already.
For any Roguelike players out there, Thomas Biskup is (or was) running a donation drive for the development of ADOM and ADOM II. The campaign has already been funded and to spare; now there's a mad scramble for meeting stretch goals in the last 18 hours of the drive.  Most interestingly, two goals that seem just barely out of reach at this point are two brand new quests to be added if their goals are met: One supposedly highly detailed and dealing with volcanoes and one exploring Rolf, one of the more intriguing pieces of implied mythology in the original ADOM. Pledge rewards include vintage versions of the game itself, pieces of source code, posters, dice, and a limited-edition ADOM Lite RPG, which will never again see the light of day after this drive.

Interesting, too bad I don't have any spare money.   :-\

I have the spare money, but I don't have a credit card, which PayPal requires. Which sucks, because that $40 reward looks tasty.

As of now, the total is up to 78.6k. There looks to be hope yet for Rolf's Crate of Questing.

And it is done.
Highest Indiegogo project ever funded. There was a last minute surge of like $400 in the literal last 5 minutes.
Everything is edible. Just that there are things only edible once per lifetime.
It's a god-eat-god world.

Procrastination is the thief of time; Year after year it steals, till all are fled,
And to the mercies of a moment leaves; The vast concerns of an eternal scene.
