@dlux: I know it's YOUR vote, but I feel like that's not really the way it should go. I don't like how everyone on here tries to be the "better fan" of Larian or Divinity (like "I'm a fan since 1997 or something"). We are all fans, and we all want to make this happen. Actually we already did.
There are loads of reasons imagineable why someone would at this point not contribute as much to the Kickstarter campaign. They could've been in a car accident, have a high medical bill, be in hospital, just got a a child, are in debt... you name it. So I really don't like this approach where your contribution (financial or material) is the only merit, or that some backers are better than others because they contributed more.
Personally, I don't have any troubles right now, and my pledge is at $101. I also encouraged a friend who was new to Kickstarter to pledge, and he did. I hope that is enough for you, and I hope you appreciate my contribution. Could I afford to donate more? Sure, but I don't feel like I should. I never spend high amounts on games, and I only did here because Larian is a Belgian studio and I feel like I need to support my fellow countrymen.
It's for that reason that I applied for one of the fan positions, and made my plea as I did. Because it doesn't matter who you are or how big of a fan you are. A big fan might just be a complete lunatic as well. For reference: here's how Lord Crash summarized my plea:
Foobarry81 sucks at playing RPGs, suffers from Peter Pan complex, wants to break every single barrel in the game (he forgot to mention how I don't have matching shoes for the weresheep official dress code)
While I do think it would be nice to have a girl/woman (Katrien obviously) on there Friday (because it could be inspiring for other women, who doubt whether they should pledge or not), I think the only proper way this thing could and should be arranged is by pure luck. Put everyone's name in a hat and draw. Simple as that. I don't even need a Youtube video to prove how the draw went. Just let someone neutral do it, and trust they will do the right thing.
