You're attempting to sell this thing as a donation with a fake toy Monopoly-money not-actually-expected-to-be-redeemed ticket thrown in. The top commenter of this thread shouldn't have tried to include the ticket as a serious value-add if that's what it is. The comment specifically said "you can already buy a ticket to the finale, so your distant descendants can go see it [using the ticket]," not "so you can support the project out of the kindness of your own heart without any guarantee your descendants will get to see the finale."
- dahart 2y agoSmh. It’s not a scam, and it is a serious value add, and a real ticket. For someone, just not you. And only if the project survives, which is why they’re fundraising. https://www.aslsp.org/the_final_ticket.html https://www.aslsp.org/the_final_ticket.html
- kelnos 2y agoJesus, maybe dial the cynicism down a bit. This is not that serious. It's a fun thing where people get to donate to a bit of art they care about, and get a token of appreciation in return. I doubt any of these "purchasers" really care all that much if their descendants actually end up able to go to a finale in 600 years, outside of the "wouldn't it be cool if..." sense.
