I agree. The best way to make a series funny is to have the main character become a boring generic protagonist. That has me in stitches every time.

Good god, let's not sully the videos with shout-outs... and forum-side rewards aren't necessarily going to work. Not all donators will use the forums. I'd say either go the Andrew Hussie (MSPA) route and make a bunch of t-shirts and random merch - probably not a feasible suggestion - or go the Toady One (Dwarf Fortress) route and email out rewards/put them on some reward page on the site. I suppose if people are really desperate for forum rewards, you could plonk a tiny heart next to their name, but try to keep it classy...

It would probably be enough to just draw a piece of silly crayon art for every [number] dollars you receive, then post it in the news or something. I mean the videos are enough reason to donate, and enough of a reward for donating. There's no need to go crazy here, people will donate if they want to.
