Paypal refused the payment telling that donations from my location in Asia (Japan) were not permitted. This happened somewhere else before. If I remember well, the problem was solved by donating in Japanese yen. Your donation page doesn't offer that option. That could be programmed by some guys around I am sure. I am curious to know how many people have been turned down that way. I wish I could help without giving my credit card data. I may try again next month. Thank you for existing. Bye!

I've added Japanese Yen along with all other currencies PayPal currently supports. Please let me know if it's working for you now. And thanks for the heads up and the donation.
Sometimes, the impossible can become possible, if you're awesome!
Sorry for the long delay. I simply forgot about this business. It still doesn't work.
On the window for donations, only US$ is available. Maybe the change you indicated in your reply didn't stick after one year.
The message that blocks access to Paypal says: "Donations to this recipient aren't supported in this country. Return to Rare Ideas, LLC."
I presume "this country" is Japan, (since my Paypal account and credit cards are registered in Japan).
I tried with a VPN in New York and it gave me the same results.
I tried here and there during the year. It never worked.
I still receive a "Thank you for your donation." when I return to your site. I hope not too many people have that problem.
There is no need to reply since I am a quasi-inactive member on the internet.
I just wanted to let you know.
Thank you all the same for existing.

I tried from JPN in yen and it didn't work.
I tried with a VPN from Seattle in US$ and it didn't work either.
The same message blocks access to Paypal: "Donations to this recipient aren't supported in this country. Return to Rare Ideas, LLC."
Sorry, all the same.
Bye!

Damn, sorry it's still not working. Thanks for checking it out for me, though. I'm working on accepting wire transfers, but sadly the service doesn't support Yen right now. And we can't accept USD for incoming as it's still cost prohibitive.
