Y'all know that I did this just to artificially inflate my post count, right?

Peace,
dave

I meant on the thread, but did you get that many also? Damn. You get more posts in one week than I have in three months! :bowdown:

I think Post #124 is the longest I've ever seen thats not reviewing or selling a product. And with no pics! Great explanation!


Well, i try. I just hope people actually read and find some useful info in it!

Did you read my diode degradation explanation attempts?

i'm so tempted to ask for some stuff in return for my donation.. however... i'm so damn anxious about these test results... i'm holding myself back so that i can eventually get a nicer discount on an IgorT built 8x... :eek:

rawr... patience... *breathe in.... breathe out...*

I already mentioned my offers several times, i think everyone knows them, and they go regardless of what you contribute, it's a great offer for anyone who can afford $40!

A fully working module, and some diodes from me!

The number of diodes for $40 should be:
4x PHR + 4x LCC red

It doesn't cover a GGW tho, but that's over i guess...


We're almost done! :)

I'm happy LPF came through for this experiment, but you shouldn't have to bribe people to donate. Maybe if cOld did the same he would have similar results. To each his own, it's all good. Maybe an auction would be a good way go about it instead?

[...]you shouldn't have to bribe people to donate. [...]
From what I can tell they didn't need to. I was offered 5 16x red diodes for my donation, but turned them down. As far as I can tell most people donated simply to support the cause and turned down the "free gifts".

Yep. However, sometimes one has to create momentum ;)

I think if we are going to raise more money we should try a raffle. People buy tickets for 5 dollars each (or whatever) and people donate prizes. I could probably find something to donate. All of the raffle money goes to IgorT and the prizes go to the winners. Plus that is a lot more fun than just donating so more people will probably participate.

I like it.

c0ld: We should do that with LPF donations. You'll make more money to run the site, and lots of people will donate prizes!x

We did fine. We accomplished what we needed to.

I call it total WIN

We have done this before. We will do it again. We wait awhile between raffles so as to avoid burning the membership out

I got part of y'all repped for donating (or trying to). :D

However, I have reached the "rep fairy limit" for today. :angel:

I'll get more tomorrow. :tired:

Thank you ALL :thanks:

More money cant hurt. This is a bad analogy but:

I only NEED food and water to live (among other things) but i WANT lasers. I think we should anyway. id buy a couple tickets depending on how much they were.
