How you know I'll never embezzle from the Humble Brony Bundle · 6:30am Jun 9th, 2012

(For context: if you didn't know, I run the Humble Brony Bundle.)

I mentioned on a stream tonight that I'd really love to go to Everfree Northwest, if someone wouldn't mind paying me $500 to go. A friend jokingly suggested that I should just embezzle from the Humble Brony Bundle donations.

The very idea made me sick to my stomach. And still does, actually, just thinking about it. Yeah, your donations are definitely safe in my hooves, because if I stole a buck-fifty for a dollar menu sandwich I'd probably throw it back up. :pinkiesick:


I submitted the first two chapters of a story earlier today, so once that goes live... well, here's hoping that it's good enough that some of you like it!

You are one of those brilliant people who run the bundle? Kudos to you for it. You've recently overthrown Notch. :trollestia:
Anyway, mere suggesting embezzling money is a disgusting idea. It goes, like, against all the things MLP ever taught us. :fluttercry:
Honesty rivaled only by Applejack's shines through you, my good sir. :ajsmug:

164524 Oh no, I'm a MUCH better liar than Applejack, but I never use my powers of deception for evil. :trixieshiftright:

BR

164654 like a superhero...honest man....

164654 brony bundle? Forgive me for not knowing what your talking about.

165510 so.....what is it? Is it like a game bundle? I would just browse through the blogspot, but I'm on my phone and my Internet is out. Again forgive my not knowing.

165664 You can donate to the Humble Brony Bundle to be part of a single large contribution to the Humble Indie Bundle. This is just to support the cause, not to purchase the games themselves, sorry!

165679 does it support the delepment (spelled that wrong. Sorry.) of the games? And if so, what games?

165907 I think you should go to www.HumbleBundle.com and read up on what that is. It should answer your questions!

165912 kk will do! Thank you for putting up with my ignorance! If ignorance is the right word.....is it?


EDIT: now that I know what your talking about, WHY AM I BROKE?!?!?!?!?!?! if I had money I would, but I'm broke. I can't even afford to buy lunch on the way home from school.
I'm gonna feel bad.
Oh and when I looked and saw notch's donation my jaw hit the floor. 1 penny shy of 10k. But I just wish I knew, why the whole 1 penny shy thing? Why not just make it the full 10k? BUT Y'ALL ARE DAMN CLOSE!!!
How long untill y'all stop taking donation? I may be able to get some money tomorrow (tight assed grandparents won't give me my money :twilightangry2:) so I'll see what I can do.

166115 Aww, it's okay! Helping charity and good causes is obviously a nice thing to do, but if you can't easily afford it then you should look after yourself and be financially safe. Thank you for your support, though!

167254 no, it's not that I'm financially unsafe, it's juat that my grandparent don't give me acsess to me money. Plus I'm too young to get a job, so if they don't give me any money, I can't get any.

167551 Well, in that kind of situation, just look after yourself for now, and when you CAN support charity do what you can. It's obvious your heart is in the right place. :pinkiesmile:

167714 but I'm gonna feel like shit if I can't give anything:fluttershysad:

167721 There'll be more opportunities in the future, I promise!

167739 but I want to help beat Notch:raritycry:

167793 now I don't feel as bad.
Is it bad that I wanted the maker of my of my favorite games, to be beat by my favorite community?
