    Chance at $$$!!


    Forest

    Date of Drawing and Donations

    The drawing for the cash prize will be held on August 2nd, 2013 (Next Friday) where I will be drawing the name (written on a piece of paper) from a hat. All entrees must have donated from the previous day (Thursday) until 7:00 PM on Friday, when the Drawing will take place. So to sum it up, you have from Thursday to 7:00 PM (Pacific Time, US & Canada) on Friday to have your donations in for your name to be entered in the drawing.

    !!!Important Notice Update!!!

    Entries will no longer be accepted after July 30th! Be sure to post on here with your Forum Name as well as the amount you are willing to donate (please follow the format provided in the OP as it does help)!

     

    For those of you who still wish to partake in this event, you still can!! However; the minimum you can donate in order to be entered is 10$ (due to late-fees). This is to make it fair for those who donated 5$ to get in.

    ________________________________________________________________

    Alright guys, so I assume you have heard of our financial problems here at Xeno Gamers. We're running on a tight budget, and as such corners are being cut, servers are being removed, and all in all, it's a bad time to be an xG player... Or is it? This is a chance for not only you to help Xeno Gamers, but to even make a hefty amount of moolah!! cash!! green stuff!! (not leaves, I promise).

     

    Yours truly, will be hosting an event that will not only benefit Xeno Gamers, but possibly yourself!! Interested? You damn well should be.

     

    What?

    No, this isn't a scam.

    Shame on you for thinking so!

     

    At this point, you're probably thinking "Forest, how about cutting the crap and getting to the point? How much $$$ are we talkin' here?" Well guys, we're talking about winning up to an amount of 100 big ones!! That's right guys and gals, $100.00. Now obviously I'm not going to be handing this out to just any player, I'd be crazy to do that [favoritism, am I right?]. So here's how it will work, it's actually quite simple.

     

    The cash prize will start at $30. "Now hold on a second Forest, that's not exactly one hund-" I KNOW. I know. There Is a catch, and it will require the complete co-operation of our players/members! Now let me finish, because the next time you interrupt, you'll have a branch so far up your ass you'll be sprouting damn pinecones out of your mouth.

     

    ...

     

    Moving on. As I said, the cash prize will start at $30. You, the player/member who so graciously decided to be a part of this wonderful event, will reply to this thread stating that you are interested and would like some cash. So, how is this going to benefit Xeno Gamers? Well obviously you can't just expect to get money for no reason, right? You gotta give it a little to get a little. In order to be eligible to receive this cash, you must first submit a post stating that you will donate a measly $5 to Xeno Gamers. The format will be as follows (for example. You may donate more then $5 should you choose to. In multiples of 5, your name will be added multiple times. Donate $10 = name is show twice in the ballot box, meaning double the chance of you winning! Donate $15 = name is show thrice, etc):

    >Forest
    Donation of: $5.00
    

     

    It's as simple as that! Now, remember when I mentioned the cash prize will start at $30? Well here's where it gets interesting. For each member who states they are interested (posts a reply in the format shown above, minus the use of "code") this amount will increase by 2$. Now, that may not seem like much now, but as more players/members join in, the higher it goes! Up and up and up until, you guessed it, $100.00. A date will be given where the ballot box will be closed, and no further entries will be allowed. Another date will then be given, stating the time of day when I will be pulling a winner (via random name generator). The name I pull out will win the cash prize and will be announced via forums!

     

    Now, remember guys, this will be out of my own pocket. So to sum it all up:

    1. Donations will proceed to help out Xeno Gamers!
    2. Chance to win prize up to $100!
    3. Bragging rights!
    4. Forever praised by myself!

    Sound good? I'm hoping this will be a roaring success. Remember guys, if just One person decides to do this, they will end up winning a free $30. You don't want that, do you? So join in, increase that amount to 100 bucks, and maybe even win it all while helping out our community!! The choice is yours.

    Contestants are advised to have access to Paypal (not a requirement, money may be emailed to a valid Email Address) in order to receive a transfer of the winning amount. For any further questions regarding this event, contact Forest via Steam/TeamSpeak/Forums

    I just donated last night as I said in my previous post I only want the amount I entered in ($25) to be put into the contest, instead of the full $35.

    Donated 10 $s Superkiller67 in general donations (comment: for Forest draw) :) how many entries is that @@Forest?

    1 due to late fees. If you had entered the drawing earlier in the week, that would have been two. But congrats, you are not legible to win 42$!
