I don't think he got any money from that, and purely did it based on his principals. When the Progressive Victory books leaked, Dev wasn't listed on the paystub much to the thread's disappointment. That's how we got the meltdown of Xanderhal, as the guy wasn't paid on time and was losing his shit because he thought he was going to be evicted. Dev isn't doing this for money, he's doing this because he thinks that he's a big enough object to stop the inevitable, but is going to be crushed under the reality that he's just a fat retard larping as an intellectual.
