Let's buy a microphone for TDL!

As requested by Ben.
As most of TeamSpeak users know, we only heard the voice of one of the Knights and Merchants legends a few times - The Dark Lord! Therefore, I decided to start a poll to see whether there is enough interest in crowdfunding a microphone to TDL. Looking on ebay.nl (lets assume this is a popular auction site in Netherlands, I have no idea whether it really is) I saw that a cheap microphone goes around 8 Euros, so that's the amount we'd need to gather. There are couple of other problems I see on our way, either small (who will keep the money? Sado can volunteer, everyone knows that he is the most trusted person ever and would never steal the money... right?) or bigger ones (how do we find out wheree TDL lives, so we can actually send him the hardware? ), but I am sure we can sort that stuff out.
If TDL doesn't really want to accept our offer, then we could send the mic to some other poor Dutch guy. Not a lot of them talk on TS (really, I can't think of more Dutch people than To and Mexican T, that used a microphone in a looong time), which is probably due to the lack of money (the economic crisis gets everyone nowadays, I guess). After all, what other reason would that be? Being too ashamed to talk? Nonsense! All the people from other countries use their microphones, it's only Dutches who don't, so I think there must be some sort of nationwide problem. It surely can't be their knowledge of the English language, since everybody knows their language is next to identical to English, and young Dutchmen speak fluently both languages at the age of 3.
So, who's with me?
