Just set it up as a regular donation system with the intent on using the donations for website contests, maintenance and expenses. Novalogic can't do anything about you getting donations because you aren't redistributing their game at a new price or making money off of their games without their consent.

Since the donations have nothing to do with novalogic, they can't touch you. There is no legal matter in this. You are thinking way too deep. Novalogic can't do anything because you are getting donations to keep your site running, even if it's a novalogic gaming fansite. They get no cut. It's not their operation and they don't pay the expenses, you do.

Look at this site, novahq. They have been running this site for what...close to 10 years now? They take donations. Those donations go towards website fees and maintenance, not to novalogic. NovaHQ is doing novalogic a HUGE favor by providing this website for them so players can come here and get information on their games at no cost to the player. Sites like these are what make games as popular as they are. Novalogic would be stupid to try to scoop in and scrape a little money off the top of these fansites. They would have no community anymore.
