I have a spare $10k in the bank.

Good idea! +1!

With the cash on the table we will get new sim from Oleg every year, but not once in 10 years.

Probably more like once every eight years (Oleg probably has several million from investors).

However, you would probably receive a pre-order copy of the new sim, along with more than enough money for a new rig... (instead of having to buy both)

Has anyone in this thread actually provided any evidence that Oleg 'needs' cash? Nope.

At this point, enlarging the SoW:BoB team would probably slow development down - it takes time to teach newcomers, time better employed sorting out the final details by the existing team.

Any cash raised this way by the minuscule portion of SoW purchasers that read this forum would be almost irrelevant to development of later software too. If anything, the suggestion that development was being delayed by cash shortages could actually reduce sales, and make matters worse. Can I suggest people drop this ridiculous topic, and find another stupid non-issue to argue about?

You gotta love the Banana Board. Always at least one laugh a day.

Ever heard of fiscal authorities? Ever wondered how they might see such a "donation"? Ever considered that this might cost Oleg more than it gives him because the tax he may have to pay is insane?

Jeez, guys, some ideas are really naive.

Being a Corporate Lawyer, and Investment Banker by education degree, I have to confess that I have never heard about "fiscal authorities", and I do not know what Oleg will do with the money...probably he will buy himself a lot of vodka. Whats up guys? Only cash moves projects further! Wake up!

Also, may be taxes are huge in Germany, but in Russia, there is different picture. Even Mr. Medvedev, the russian President himself proposed financing of Olegs team, in order to build Great Patriotic Simulator.

well thats kind of my point I follow the forum closely then i come on here and find this thread...which made me think wtf is c1 in financial trouble??? this is not Olegs first BBQ let him get on with BoB...and for those that think a handful of people from this forum donating to a "C1 development fund" is going to get them a game a year, best take that money and book themselves into re-hab for whatever substance they are abusing. kill this thread its going to cause more harm than good.

Actually, if there was more investors supporting the devs, the game might come out before 2015.
