You betcha ! THAT would ROCK, huh ? LOL !!! I am working on trying to be able to broadcast the drawing live, and record it at the same time - I recently bought a webcam setup, and I have my ooober cool (and way too complicated for me !) Canon S2iS camera that can do streaming video, and audio I think. If anyone knows of a reliable and inexpensive (please read that as FREE !) way to add a small application to my website, or something like that, please email me, and let me know ? I think a live drawing would be really cool ! Kinda like the big Lottery drawings, but uhm...just not as much value ! :p Lemme know - my email for those that do not have it is : stonergl@gmail.com

Raffle ! UPDATE !! PLEASE READ !

*******UPDATE***********

Effective immediately, I cannot accept any more payments for this raffle via Pay-pal. It seems that some asshole has whined about this, and raffles on CPF - I dunno if it is a universal crackdown on Pay-pal's part or whether this is a vindictive action from a member, or former member - regardless, if you wish to partake in this raffle, you MUST mail me payment - contact me via PM or email to get my mailing address. Any further payments for this raffle will be refunded if they are sent via pay-pal. The raffle is still ongoing, if you wish to be refunded, let me know I will do so - but it is still going to occur if enough tickets are sold via MONEY ORDER OR CHECK ONLY.

I can still accept payments for other stuff, just not any type of raffle. Basically, I guess it is against their acceptable use policy to do raffles, and I did not know that ! Dunno if it is a global crackdown, or if it is someone being an ass - CPF got hit as well, though !

Maybe just don't type the word Raffle on the subject on the paypal. I'm sure the Greg will know what it's all about if you clarify this payment via email/PM ;)

Re: August 6th *****MEGA*****Raffle ! UPDATE !!

When people on eBay hold raffle type auctions, they can obey the rules by saying "all you will receive is an email and that's all" And then say "I may give a gift to three different purchases". Maybe you could do that? People on eBay do it all the time and their auctions don't get cancelled, I think you could get away with it.

Erm why not just do as the laser companies do, just declare as payment for a "pen torch", how do they know its a raffle? Just tick the paypal box for goods ordered.

Easy ;D

erm - they sent me this thread via email - so evidently whomever turned on the fire ratted me out pretty well. Wanna take any guesses as to who ? My money is on Joe Barry, AKA PICRTHIS The jackass.
