Wait, I’m confused. Isn’t the whole point of this drive so that Adywan can get enough money from other people for supplies? Why would he use his own money to double the donation of others when he’ll already be using his own money later? Why not keep it and use it on top of all the donation money?

I’m not Adywan. Donations have stalled. I am willing to donate $1,000 to Adywan if others pitch in now and reach that limit.

I really wish I could donate, but I was warned by my family and friends about donating to things like this, because they think I’m being scammed.

You could be.

Better be safe than sorry. Your family and friends make good sense.

The hard work that goes on here is also exploited (burned to disc then sold on eBay for profit).

Honestly, I’m starting to get very fearful right now.

What are you talking about? Are you ok?

Sorry, I just feel extremely worried about all these things that kept getting in the way of the Revisited edits being finished.

Pretty selfish viewpoint, no? Not “I’m worried about adywan” but “I’m worried I won’t get to see Revisited.”

To be fair, it’s entirely possible that Adywan has been working on Revisited for this user’s entire life. 😉

Revisited will be finished before George R.R. Martin releases The Winds of Winter… 😄

Saying Adywan might be a scammer is pretty disrespectful. Unless that’s not what you meant, it’s a seriously off-base thing to say. He’s been taking donations for over 15 years and has always followed through on what he promised. If that’s not enough to earn a bit of trust, you’re gonna have a tough time trusting anyone.

Same goes for you—I find your posts on this thread really odd. From worrying about Adywan’s health affecting Revisited (not his health itself), to sharing every random thought you have. If you don’t want to donate, that’s totally fine. But don’t clog the thread with your family’s suspicions about Adywan being a scammer. Unless you’re 12, I don’t get why you’d need your family and friends’ opinion over a few-dollar donation.
You’re really reminding me of Editroid’s posts on this thread from while back; Strange and unnecessary.
Also, Glenwood isn’t Adywan. Are you blind? If he were, it would say “adywan”.

Please don’t call Adywan a scammer when he’s not. Especially in public on his own thread.

Yeah, the mods should step in a bit more often in Adywan’s threads. They tend to be very active and are taken off-subject a lot of the time.

That is a beautiful offer, mate. I hope there’ll be a good amount of people on here who can donate even a few $€£s for this. Nice one. 👍

For each donation drive he always tells you what he intends to spend the money on. We already have Star Wars: Revisited and Empire: Revisited to show for his efforts. Not to mention all the behind the scenes images and videos documenting the project’s progress.

Yeah… Out of all the threads on this forum, he chooses THIS one to be skeptical of. 🤦🏻

Don’t take it the wrong way. I didn’t say I was calling him a scammer myself. I don’t believe that.

“I was warned by my family and friends about donating to things like this, because they think I’m being scammed.”

The fact that you shared this, when you really didn’t need to, makes it come off as a statement in itself. Especially since you took their advice and chose not to donate, which basically means you believe them.

EDIT: Nice edit you made there… You should’ve apologised instead of deflecting. Also, if you don’t believe that, why did it stop you from donating?? your acting upon a presupposition you don’t believe? Either way, we should change the subject.

I’m sorry. Really, I am. I promise I won’t say such things again. In fact, I’ll do my part and donate right now.

No problem, man. BTW, you don’t have to donate, I was in no way pushing you to.

BTW, Sorry for taking the thread MORE off topic. where back on track now.

Oh wow. Thank you so much for doing this, it will be a great help, especially with the PayPal fees & the USD to GBP exchange rate at the moment taking so much out of the donations coming in ( for every $ donated i get just under 70p) and then the hard drives needed costing more than they were a few months ago already and the cheaper monitors/ TVs being so crap now. I’ll let the facebook group know 😃

One last time, see if I got this straight. Is the idea that if enough people work together to donate $1,000, it will actually be a $2,000 donation?

Correct.
