I think this is great, guys.

I've gotta admit that I've never even thought of "tipping" game developers before!

Here's to many many cups of coffee delivered by these here mugs... and may the release date draw ever the nearer as a result!

Will it be rushed? If so, are you planning to patch to fix holes?
Will there be an SDK (Soft-drink Development Tool-Kit)?
Will they be compatible with my hard-desk?
If I drop one over my desk, will there be a crash to desktop?

:rotfl::rotfl::rotfl:Good one!!! (Ta det med ro, tror nok de kommer sikkert frem)

:p

Heh, wish I could contribute, but I don't have a credit card of Pay-Pal account or anything. Or for that matter money

.

I can answer some of those questions, but TDK better answer the hard ones, he's the Producer.

If I drop one over my desk, will there be a crash to desktop?
These are "Combat mugs", specially designed for Pacific seas.

Will it be rushed? If so, are you planning to patch to fix holes?
Everything we do is rushed. We live in perpetual crunchtime. We do not anticipate any holes, though. Except the big one on the top and the one in the handle, and those are there by design.

The mugs are protected by anti pour software which protects them from being 'chipped'. Sadly, the ani pour software reduces the speed at which liquid can be poured into the mug and may on rare ocassions produce handle malfunctions.

This isn't just a way to try to get your claws on a beta copy of the game, hm:p?

Joking, joking. It's a good thing you're doing

We've been secretly testing the Starbucks mug protection software. It seems to work perfectly as long as there's nothing in the mug!
