DIY Charity Raffle - Twisted Pear Ventus
Sep 25, 2010 at 10:41 PM Post #47 of 77

You are correct, the drawing is tomorrow night.  I'm still waiting on a few payments and I expected that going into it so I basically wanted to allow at least 24hrs to elapse after the close of the raffle to limit the # of commitments that don't get fulfilled.  We're around 99% paid up so I'm not worried if it slipped off a couple of folks radar.
 
I also want to take a minute to thank Jude for posting this on the front page which I'm sure is how a lot of you found out about it.  The raffle is a huge success as a result.  THANKS JUDE!!!

Well, funny thing: I normally type CTRL+L www.headfi.org/forum/ and go directly to the forum page which lists them all. (I'm sure I have a shortcut somewhere, but its just faster to go where I want to go.)  But for some reason last night I just went to the front page.  Rare.  And yet it was so perfectly timed for me to see this happening.

Just found head-fi, so I missed the raffle, but what a success!

That makes bhjazz the winner!
 
I'll be coordinating things with him moving forward but I do just want to say thank you again to everyone who donated.  We ended up with 218 tickets and a few donations outside the raffle process which adds up to a grand total of $2.434.44.  I'll add some to that to make it a nice round number but that is just an incredible sum in my book.

Wow...wow!  This is really cool, and I guess the first thing to say is, "thanks!"  I suppose if I said I rarely win anything people wouldn't believe me, but I rarely win anything.  Very cool. 
 
But more importantly is the incredible sum of money generated here.  I say: Congratulations to everyone who felt this was a worthy cause and got involved.  Feels good, doesn't it?!! 
 
Nate, we look forward to your post regarding the presentation.
