Sure, we've pitched in when we get dice out of it. Or when the server craps out and we *need* to. But there has never been a better time to get out in front of costs that arise and keep FUMBBL going through 2515. You know that you can get just as pissed off at an ISP from a country you've never been to as you can get at your own. You know that regardless of how crazy bad that game last night was you're still going to come read this blog now, and even maybe hit refresh a few times to see if other people post new blogs too. You've been enjoying all of Kalimar's work on the new client features. You want to show your support for custom pitches and new sprites. You've been counting down the days until the
RttNAFC and were delighted to
see proof that Christer has been turning it into reality. So donate something now!
Or better yet, donate in February after pledging your support to the worthy cause below.
The HLP vs ARR
fundraiser has three weeks left, and here's where we stand:

Total multiplier for each sprint: x4 (with x5 for premier)
Patrons: OenarLod, mrt1212, Bazakastine x2, The_Murker (premier sprints only)
Sprints completed so far:21
Total multiplier for each sprint: x6
Patrons: happygrue, cdassak, Bazakastine x2, Azure, koadah (group with most sprints)
Bonus money (put up by cdassak):
$5 for every new racial sprint record (max one per race)
$10 for a new ARR or stunty sprint record
$15 if there will be any unbeaten sprint
$20 if there will be any coach who sprints with 4+ races
We'll add this up at the end, but records have been broken already!
JimmyFantastic sprinted with Ogres and raised
$57, because as it turns out people will pay top dollar to watch Jimmy play ogres in the box. Let's file that one away under "to be repeated". ;)
We had an amazing turnout for the last
BBB in December, setting a new record for most brawls in a single week with 8 (!) launched at once. While a few teams were cut out (like my Humans, go fig), we had 64 teams that made it into brawls, with 40 of those from ARR and 13 being Human teams.
Here's where it gets good
While humanity has lead the challenge thus far, ARR has lunged into the lead with enough sprints to flip koadah's support (as he's pledged to the group with the most sprints to maximize $$$ for FUMBBL). To date,
Humanity has raised $60 with a number of additional sprints past the 13 game mark and
ARR has raised $126 with another $57 from Jimmy's ogre fans.
For a grand total of
$243 to date.
Get in on this! With three weeks to go there is still time for you to sprint for glory or to put your name in for double secret glory that will be displayed for all time on our group page as a supporter of either (or both!) faction.
Did you skip down here just to rate the blog?
Well here's your TL; DR version: donate $5 right this minute, or earn a few hard sixes from Nuffle and send me a PM matching $1 for every human or ARR sprint. You know you will regret being left behind on this!
