It would be cool if they could do a highlits footage or something. I've probably watched about 20 hours of desert bus total, but I need to sleep and sometimes you just miss things.

I missed Notch (by, like, an hour) but got to see Duke Nukem call in, and saw Sam from Sam and Fuzzy fame.

So, it wasn't all that bad.

Unfortunately, where I live they measure how much internets is being used, and a live feed surprisingly takes up quite a bit. A Steam update running at the same time also might have contributed. Time really does go quite quickly when you're watching the feed.

lol judging by the reactions, I'd say Notch has become Minecraft's Moot.
With the amount of love /tg/ has for Minecraft you have no idea how right that observation is.

He makes $300,000 dollars every week off of Minecraft and that's all he could donate? Cheap bastard.

[small]I kid, I kid. Good of the man.[/small]

I'm wondering what this new game he's working on...
I thought it was $350,000 [http://www.escapistmagazine.com/news/view/103828-MineCraft-Makes-350-000-a-Day] a day?

That said, $2,000 is way more than I can donate, so definitely congratulations to him. I bet the call was hilarious too...:p

Well, he is paying Swedish taxes, so he probably clears about $50 when it's all said and done.

I missed all this because I was asleep during the night, unlike Notch. Most of the guests seem to come when I'm offline, missed Duke Nukem to. :< Still watched a few hours over the week, been funny so far.

Im impressed that not one person has trolled, "Should be spending more time working on Minecraft than talking to LRR..." :p

Awesome gesture from Notch though, nothing but the utmost respect for the guy!
