Definitely worth thinking about.

http://m.slashdot.org/story/191983 Big news for 0 A.D.? Feel free to share your thoughts.

Thanks, I will arrange it with SPI

Omri asks if we can reimburse the harpist with $29 travel expenses. We're talking about a big harp.

Thanks, greenknight32! We really appreciate it.

Sorry to hear of your experience. Other people have also told us of similar problems. We hope to improve the experience in the future. In the meantime I have updated the donation page to reflect your comments.

Can a team of people manage it?

I mean, instead of the marble.

I feel "Start Game" should also be in the same gold, or in a lighter shade of gold.

Exocet and Gentium Basic, respectively. (See links here)

Thanks, Dave, you rock!

Thanks for your help spreading the word, MoLAoS. It really makes a difference. (Would you like a list of some more websites we would want to get some publicity on?)

I want to add that: 1. We agree, and 2. We have already started tackling lag. (And 3. thanks for your kind words at the end! You might want to put such words in the beginning next time you provide someone with feedback, even constructively as you did here.)

"0 A.D. is ready to do a big push, this has the potential to be one of the greatest games out there. I think they're now gonna be on the path. [...] If they reach their funding, and I truly hope they do, this is going to be a showcase game. Not just for Linux, this is gonna be a showcase game for open source games. I think that's why 0 A.D. is a little more important than your average bear, because it has so much potential. [...] If it's something this compelling, I think it's gonna make it." http://youtu.be/ebFJKPOziQk?t=55m

Sure, SPI accepts PayPal, just provide some proof of the donation and the perk you want, and we will arrange the rest. E-mail the info to aviv, which is at the domain "wildfiregames.com".

I can live with the bear claw/flame but the angle of the word "Pyrogenesis" is hella ugly

The fact that you donated via Indiegogo doesn't affect the tax-deductibility of the donation. (Are you eligible to the tax deduction in the first place? That is a question we cannot answer, you should consult a tax advisor to be sure.) Hope this helps.

Hi ltms, welcome!

Hi Aleksandar! Welcome! I have heard of Bosnia and Herzegovina and it is beautiful!

Yeah, I saw that comment and spent a while fixing the donation page, I hope it is clearer now. Along the way I found out that SPI does work with PayPal after all. This is new. Pity they couldn't tell me in advance.

We're on Hacker News but I'm not familiar with the website so I'm not sure if that is a big deal or not: https://news.ycombin...item?id=6339917 Lots of really interesting comments, though.

Hi Lion.Kanzen, I wrote the announcement so I will answer the question. In English, the word "free" can have two meanings, one is "at no cost" (i.e., gratis) and one is "unrestricted" (related to freedom or liberty). In the free, open-source software community, people often want to use just one meaning. This is usually handled by borrowing words like "gratis" and "libre". 0 A.D. is both gratis ("free as in free beer") and gives its users many freedoms ("free as in freedom"). I used both words to make sure I am being understood. Hope this helps.
