Outside of adding another 50 bucks or so, I couldn't do much more being this close to the holidays and various bills (3k to the dentist, etc). I think more than anything, we need to get more people on board (although increasing pledges is good too). But spreading the costs might prove easier.
If there was a guild being started, that might more easily attract people to the cause and get people involved and moving their parcels to your land mass. not to mention I'm sure there are people that have bought the game already, but haven't decided to join up with any one group yet.
Also, as for running it, as [MENTION=10]Morigen[/MENTION] mentioned, no thanks. =) However, I do plan on being a part of things. I think new blood is what's needed and not my old crusty blood. ;) But I'm definitely here to help and be a part of the overall team. =)
