17 bucks now... (or well, I suppose that would make it exactly 9,000. I'm sure there's some cents the display does not show though.)

I've been trying to figure that one out for awhile now. Any chance of a thumbnail sketch?

Quoting EncyclopædiaDramatica (which is extremely NSFW and pretty funny):
T'S OVER NINE THOUSAAAAAAAAAAND! or just Over 9,000 is an over-used meme that was started by the japanese anime show 'Dragonball S**t', where characters would use scouters to detect power levels. This meme was c**tpasted many, many times and it's not funny anymore. Usage will only make you look like a weeaboo.

We are so close to the goal ... I hope people don't stop donating just now.

I was already thinking about the next color to be used in the thermometer  :-\

+1 w/Josh.

Or at least make it $12K which would be double the original goal.

I'd love to see it hit that much, if for no other reason than as a response to some comments about how poorly DC is supposedly serving it's community.

We reached our secondary goal and I'm ecstatic about it.  Everyone should feel great about it, and let's try to use this energy and momentum to make the site better in the coming year.

But after some consulting with master Cody on his Himalayan mountain top meditation retreat, I have gone and raised the final fundraiser thermometer goal to the extremely unlikely target of $15,000.

I know what you're thinking:  :huh:

We have already exceeded our expectations and goals for the fundraiser.. There is no pressure or stress about raising any more money -- anything from here on out is just icing on the cake and extra padding for the nest.

So let's see where we end up!

Same here.

But I couldn't afford to before I donated either - so no worries!  ;D

Agree 100%. :Thmbsup:

re: Little badge

I think we should name that badge the "Ka-ching!" badge. :)
