Crowd Fund Annie Ultimate Skin

I was wondering if Riot would accept crowd funding for certain champs to get a ultimate skin made. I would love to see Annie have a Ultimate Skin, and I would definitely pay a ridiculous amount of money to see the gears turning for her ultimate skin. Can Riot accept crowd funded money to make a Annie skin? How much would that cost? I am very curious to see the responses from the Riot staff and other people who would like to see that shiny new Ultimate skin for her.

Riot made 624 million dollars in 2013. That's $624,000,000.

They don't need your money. However, all design/art/production work does take time and other non-financial resources. Riot talks a lot about "bandwidth", which basically is just saying that they only have X resources to devote to Y number of problems. They also have to make sure not to flood the game too much with too many new Champions, skins, and game mechanics, both to prevent breaking the balance/pacing of the game, and to avoid losing revenue by giving the players too many things at once. Players are more likely to buy a few skins every few months rather than 100 skins tomorrow. Source

Could at least pick a Champion that a) Didn't recently get a skin and b) Doesn't have the most skins in the game.

Interesting proposal though.

It would be nice and maybe use that money for a charity event! It's pretty sad when the only charity based skin isn't even available. They should really consider doing it again. Or at least bring Urf warwick back and give the money to a different charity!
