Yup the paypal account is now associated with my new bank account that is only going to be for the havennet. Stops me getting confused and stops errors.

So yes full Steam ahead.

By the way could people when they make a donation for this raffle send me a PM with how much you have paid, how many tickets and what your Email/real name is. Last time it took me ages to figure out who was who :D.

Yup click the button. The account is the same as one as before except now it has a real life bank account associated with it just because Paypal said it had to have one if I was to transfer any more money.

One complication. When clicking through the donations button, it takes me to PayPal where it asks me for an item name and donation value. Except that the value is in GBP.

Suggestions for how we translate that back into EUR for the purposes of the raffle? Current exchange rate would have €5 = £3.60.

Paypal has a way of allowing people transferring money into your account to choose what currency it is listed as but as far as I rememebr it has to be turned on by the account holder.


But still, right now...

So, I'm just gonna donate £15, clearly it's negligibly above the price of four tickets.

Yeah, that seems like a good plan. I'll do the same.

Remember to drop a PM to SgtFury and DocBot so that they can more easily track who sent how much for the raffle purposes.

Right then - things are finally rolling. Those of you who hasn't already joined the raffle, you have until monday or tuesday before a price is decided. Then, after that, another week before the draw (so everyone has a chance to pay for their tickets).

Just scoured the thread and looked at our master list of people who have donated already. There's a few who have declared an interest in this thread but our master list doesn't yet reflect that they've donated and so aren't yet part of the raffle. We might not yet have updated our master list. If so, post away. Otherwise, the donation button is over yonder... or available >> here <<.

Already on the list:

  • DocBot
  • Ronin Storm
  • HotStuff
  • DeZmond
  • BiG D
  • waterproofbob
  • Traxata
  • T-Bone
  • elDiablo
  • Taffy
  • Iron Fist
  • Duren
  • Haven
  • Tetsuo Shima
  • Turang

Pending confirmation on the master list:

  • ... (none)

Not on the list but posted in this thread:

  • thatbloke

It's not too late to join in, though, even if only with a single ticket.

As the raffle was originally designated to be €5/ticket we're sticking with that (this time) despite the fact that the server fund is actually in GBP now. For a quick idea, here's how many tickets you can get in GBP based on the current exchange rate:

  • £5 = €6.95 = 1 ticket
  • £10 = €13.90 = 2 tickets
  • £15 = €20.86 = 4 tickets
  • £20 = €27.80 = 5 tickets

(all conversions correct at time of posting, courtesy of XE.com)

[edit]Added a bit where I can track who has confirmed they've paid but we need to confirm at the other end.[/edit]

[edit]Moved T-Bone to pending confirmation.[/edit]

[edit]Moved a lot of people to the confirmed list. Added a couple too.[/edit]

[edit]Added Turang and Tets.[/edit]
