Donation Drive Update and Draw Details

Section: 

This Sunday at midnight we will be taking down the links to the Paypal account and will no longer be accepting anymore donations until the next go around, which won't be for a good long while I think. Rather than do the draw right at midnight we will be pulling the names out of a hat live on Teamspeak Monday, November 1st at 8PM CST. Karla (hoochie) will draw the name and announce the winnner of the awesome gaming system Guru put together for us. Please read on for the list of the currently known donors. There are a few who we don't have forum names for so if you're missing from the list please let me know ASAP with your Paypal email and full name used to donate.

We apologize for the down time yesterday, I'm happy to report it was 100% Pyro's fault and not mine for a change. Good luck in the draw!

Anticipation. Anticipaaaation.

Holy crap, look at that list of donor names. That's awesome.

We got a gang of donors, the bloods and the crips.

I'm still waiting for my second liver... how do you expect me to drink all my life.

114 donors out of what... nearly 1,000 registered names? That's a pretty impressive percentage to my uninformed way of thinking.

I feel good knowing we've donated to a nice downpayment for a house for Certis and Hoochie. Ely and his wife can live in their arctic basement.

In all seriousness, that is an awesome turnout. Should also be a great raffle, someone will be very lucky indeed.

I'm curious what the totals are going to work out to. It's pretty smart running a website for Gamers with Jobs. Turnout probably wouldn't be as good if this was brokesassunemployedgamersthanksW.com......hey, i might try that!

So do you have to be on present on TS to win?

I figured the down time was just ment the drive whent reallly well and everyone left cold canada for warm Mexico :).

I'm running with the Broadway 5 Deuce Donors.

No, you don't. That would be very silly.

Well, perhaps we should make the winner of the souped up system sing showtunes on TS for awhile?

(Unless I win, of course)

No. just no. You really, really, really don't want that.

Nuh-uh.

No way.

:::Well the shark has pretty teeth dear, and he shows them pearly white:::

Hey ya missed me. Sent you an e-mail Certis.

I demand a recount. Of course I am from Florida so you have to expect a few lost ballots.

Jadawin, Mack the Knife is way to cool and sophisticated to make the winner sing. I propose the Bee Gees or Bay City Rockers. Maybe Abba.

Lars

Wait a minute, were those losers the Bay City Rollers? I kinda proud that I don't know for sure.

No, you don't. That would be very silly.

Thank god.
Not that I have to worry about it, but I'm gone till the 8th after Friday.
I can just see leaving detailed directions for my wife on how to get onto teamspeak and ignore whatever you guys say.

I propose we meet virtually in either JO or the UT server as well, so we can take out our anguish at not winning but putting many virtual bullets into the virtual representation of the winner.

So I wonder what the new "item" will be next time around, what else they give you when you work a long time for a company?
I know, next time the triple donators will get "the boot"!

Just no anything from Annie or Cats. PLEASE!

credit card donation, away!

Do we need to be on the Teamspeak broadcast to accept the prizes (if we win anything)? Unfortunately, I'll be at work at that time.

just donated this afternoon.. yay. i need a new rig.. that would be sweet.

YOU DO NOT NEED TO BE ON TEAMSPEAK TO WIN, IT IS JUST FOR FUN.

That is all.

I can't believe we have to be on TeamSpeak to win. That's really short-sighted.

[size=9]Smooch. I can get away with this because I'm bald. And older than you. And bigger.[/size]

You have to be on TS to win? That sucks! I am going to be out of town. Oh well, I guess I can cancel my vacation. The wife is gonna be PISSED!

I quit.
someone else can claim my donation...
teamspeak to win, how cheap can you be.
that wasnt even in the original drive post!
[size=5]except in the chance that i actually win[/size]

YOU DO NOT NEED TO BE ON TEAMSPEAK TO WIN, IT IS JUST FOR FUN.

So... what you're saying is... that if we're not on Teamspeak... we can't win?!

Man! I blame ColdForged!* I just KNOW he's behind this... the nefarious fiend!

[size=9]* That's probably a mistake, since he lives in the same county...[/size]

Naw, it just means that TS is irrelevant because the drawing is just for fun. Those bastards!

I like to do drawrings.
