I live in Honduras/Canada/Nicaragua/USA, why are you posting on a Saturday?!
Because I'm writing this from Europe in the future where it's already Sunday. Timezones be crazy.
Why are there a bunch of non-board games in the board game list?
Because the Tabletop games category on Kickstarter includes anything remotely related to board games and sometimes things slip through my filters.

Can I donate all my money to you?
No
Can you help me promote my game?
Please no. I make lists. Nothing more.

Indeed, this fine piece of code runs purely on dQw4w9WgXcQ, so anything can happen. Leave a comment and I'll see what I can do.
