I know this won't be a kickstarter but can you please write some Smash stuff once this goes live?? <3

I also second this. The occasional Smash article would be amazing for esex. I don't think you can do a kickstarter cause it's not big enough (just trying to be realistic here) but there's definitely potential here.

Can you just imagine the possibilities of an esex article about the legend of Falcomaster3000?

If we don't reach the goal, does this mean we don't get any SC2 articles, or will the number just be severely reduced?

Smoking probably doesn't kill your kidney's too bad, I'd guess

Not the kind of "body selling" I was thinking though

I haven't donated yet because I can't decide who I should get artosis to curse yet... I need suggestions!

I'm gonna go full meta and have him curse my relationship with a girl. It's in the shitter as is, so hopefully by cursing it, it'll get better.

Or I'll just have him curse Kim-Jung Un's left eye. That man would kill it with an eyepatch.

Come on guys! 5$ for cursing someone with the mightiest curse known to mankind or alternativly let artosis spell out something ridiculous is like the best deal ever! And you'll get to read more ESEX articles on top of that.

I would have wished for some european rewards though. Like the catz lunch reward but instead it's a doner kebab with Ret/Bling/MC at HSC.

I made my way through Amazon registration only to find that I need a credit card. Unlike the US and other countries, credit cards are not a mainstream payment method in the Netherlands, so I don't have one. Is there a way to fund kickstarter projects with something other then a credit card? Something like PayPal, iDeal?

Unfortunately no.

And credit cards are indeed rare in europe. Kickstarter has always been a very american thing and if you want global crowd funding and not just american crowd funding there are far better platforms for that (which allow paypal etc.).

Fortunatly for me, I know a person who owns a credit card and I just begged him to give me his credit card information and permission to charge his bank account. Maybe you know someone with a credit card as well? That's the one workaround if you don't own one yourself. Just invite him/her for dinner or send him/her a present. That way you can usually get access to someones credit card pretty easily.

Yeah, you're right. It seems to be all over the place in europe. I shouldn't have made conclusions from one country.
If you look at the 2013 cencus from the ECB:
http://www.ecb.europa.eu/press/pdf/pis/pis2013.pdf?06ec75f7173136eb1186fc5c1e3b2d89 (last page [ANNEX])

Credit card usage seems to be very low in Bulgaria, Germany and Austria. (~15-20%). The rest ist relativly low (~35% e.g. Czech Rep.) to mid (~50% e.g. France). They do like their credit cards in Scandinavia though.

Interestingly, credit cards are rather common in the netherlands (~45% usage), so it seems to be more of a local social environment thing for the previous poster from the netherlands.

It's an interesting topic for sure. Bulgaria, Austria und Germany of course have lots of cultural connections, but I don't know why that reflects in low credit card usage.

That previous poster was me. It's completely true that lots of Dutch people have credit cards. But as far as I know they get them mostly so going abroad is more convenient (to US, France, for example). I have never personally seen someone pay for a meal in a Dutch restaurant using credit card. Also, I think some bank cards (our alternative to credit cards, basically a plastic card that requires digital authentication) count as credit cards as well, that somewhat distorts statistics.

Fact remains: I don't have one (since I rarely go abroad and when I do, my bank card works in most countries. But alas, not for kickstarter ) I will try to find myself a gullible credit card owner and get his credentials
