Estimate of $150MM falls between April and August? to see April, will need a Massive pick up in funding during late Feb through MArch due to 3.0 release and the significant increase is obvious gameplay. $13MM much more likely by July, this gives a little more than $2MM/month, mostly shown in spikes of citizens and Ship sales related to release of 3.0, and 3.1. The above supposition ignores any iincreaased income due to SQ42 Ch.1.

But really: I was astonished to see how the pledging graph significantly increases because of GamesCom Sale. And interesting, that during 2016 - until GamesCom - there for sure was a steady income, but overall the curve was decreasing. That said, it seems that the last four months were the most successful in the history of CIG. But now they have to deliver...something ;)
