Well, we managed to blow straight through $64m - $64,239,000 as I write!

People seem to be loving the Carrack (and helped in no small part by the Javelins, of course!).

64.7m as it stands, might have a double letter on Monday.

Going 65 mil tonight I guess.

We broke 65 mil around 16 hours ago.

Only 65.2 right now, so 66mil tonight might be a long shot.

Still can't get over how well they've managed all this. Hats off to them!

Yep, but it is great fun watching it tick up and boost the game development.  2015 is going to see some awesome releases.

It seems they're waiting for the 66mil mark to issue the usual letter.

It's quite annoying since it's nearly a week late.  They should decide 5 stretch goals or more in advance instead of this bloody suspense.

I don't mind the secrets. But i must admit the lack of acknowledgement is a bit irritating. Chances are he will get some stick for it

I was reading a interview with CR and he got asked why hasnt he just already written all the letters for passing the goals.  His repesnose was that he really enjoyed it and he could make it more personal depending on stuff that had recently happened.  But the issue was that when they are really busy it take a while longer to get a letter out.

He's been out at gamecons somewhere in the UK over the past week or so iirc.   I'm not too bothered by the slow response when he's out and about travelling.

Well, being busy is fine and dandy.  There's no excuse for all the REDACTED stretch goals though; which where most of my gripe lies.

They should announce a bunch of them at one go, so there's always something to aim for.  Inexcusable, especially from a business perspective.

Hey give us money.  What are you giving us in return?  REDACTED..

The 66 million line has been crossed.

We should probably have a letter by tomorrow I hope.

I guess it all depends on how busy Chris is while in the UK.

C'mon, guys.

You wouldn't spend $20m+ on a Learjet and not thoroughly test it first.
