Well done mojang! Great job! Do help those poor ppl :smile.gif: They deserve it, they've never been given a chance.

you do know make a wish foundation is for terminally ill children and not poor people right?

My level of respect for Mojang has increased exponentially. For an indie development team to be able to do something so extraordinary is truly a testament to how vastly different they are from the large corporations. Thanks Mojang!

I wish i was on minecon :sad.gif: Blir det noe minecon neste år?

Will it be more minecon next year?

So they get nearly a 10K wish, ffs, i havent had 10K of stuff i want in my 14 years, probably around 1K

Wow, what a big heart you have. Do you not realize that these wishes come from kids who are terminally ill and are usually not for stuff, but to go somewhere or do something with their family that will give them happiness during a time that's usually filled with pain, depression and hospitals?

Not to forget to mention that most of them are dying and just want one happy memory with their friends and families before they die.

since that person who made the comment was 14, perhaps they didn't realize exactly what Make-A-Wish was about...I'd like to give them the benefit of the doubt

Mojang, what you did for Evan and those other four children was such a wonderful thing that I can't find the words to adequately express how incredible it is

thank you, guys & gals, and never let those hearts of yours harden

They are people who have disability of some sort, where they can't live normal lives or kids who don't have much time to live, and like to do something that they always wanted to do.

Good job Mojang!

Stuff like this just shows that the world isn't entirely ****ed up. Way to go Mojang.. Way to go.

As nice as this post is... "who's wish" from an admin? My hopes of the admins at least getting their grammar right is shattered. >.<

Mojang is just awesome like that, helping make a wish by giving them ALL their money. nice work!

Amen to the Make a Wish Foundation and Mojang. God Bless Evan and his family. It was truly a wonderful wish.

Wow. You do know Make Wish grants seriously and terminally ill kids wishes. Apparently you also weren't there to see the young man's mother crying her eyes out when they invited him up on stage to meet Notch, the Curse rep, and Minecraft Chick to get a special Minecraft themed XBox 360. In fact I don't think there was a dry eye in the convention hall during that. Also I doubt the cost was close anywhere near 10k. Hotel for two of us was ~$350 and meals vary. I would be shocked if Mandalay Bay didn't comp their whole visit and the Mojang crew didn't provide them both with tickets. Maybe you should make sure you know what the hell you're talking about before spouting your stupidity for all to see.

rant.mode(off);

wow, when i did the Make A Wish, i just chose to go to Disney world, because i wanted my family to enjoy it, even if i wouldn't. not to get me wrong, i did enjoy some of it, but their aren't vary safe rides for a kid in a wheelchair with glass for bones. if i had known about Minecraft, and Minecon then...i would have chosen to go, even if my family wouldn't have fun there...and good for you Mojang, that's awesome that you donated,if that means 4 other people get there wish, i wonder if 1 of those will be me...but i don't think i can make a wish twice...dangit...

wow, really, do you know that people who use the Make A Wish Foundation don't see a penny of that money? its ALL used to make that child happy, hell when Make A Wish came to my house and said i could do anything i wanted I said, (for my family) that i wanted to go to Disney Land in Florida, (I was 13). i got to stay at a beautiful resort called Give Kids the World, and got to go to every theme park in Florida for a week! btw, Give Kids the World was awesome, they had this massive tree that would, like talk, and you could go inside it into a giant 2 or 3 story library with a pillow maker. and they had a giant mushroom ice cream shop that served you whatever, and however much ice cream you wanted. but my favorite part was the dino-mini-golf with animatronic dinosaurs and a giant volcano that was lit by a black light so that the cave drawing on the inside would pop out. anyhow, sorry a bit of nostalgia, but what im saying is that these people that get there wishes are dieing, and get one last breath of a short life, ands its a wonderful breath of fresh air. hell, I was dieing from my arthritis, but shortly after i came back from the resort they created a medicine that would slow it down. and, before the resort, i never left the house because my body is brittle and just moving causes pain. no offense, but you might want to research a bit before opening your mouth.
