Indeed, you read it right, it's Raffle Time again! 
The two previous raffles have been huge successes, so we're hoping to repeat it once more. As you may or may not know, the funds sorely needed to run our server are more or less dried up, so we need a fresh injection of capital. And you can help!
The rules are simple: you buy tickets, which at €5 each is a bargain. The more tickets sold, the bigger the prize gets €2 out of each ticket will go to the prize pool. If we sell an extraordinarily large amount of tickets, there will either be a second prize or a second draw as well. Each ticket you buy will get you one chance to win out of the total amount of tickets.
The prize, then? It will either be a shiny game of the winner's choice from play.com, or shiny new months paid towards the subscription of said winners choice. Or something else, even better (but probably not).
So if you buy 4 tickets and we sell a total of 40 tickets, you will have a 10% chance of winning the prize. Which would be games/months worth €80. Or possibly slightly less, and there will be a second, just as happy, winner. Which could also be you, of course. And we will have €120 towards server costs. Fantastic, isn't it?
The rules are as follows: you post in this thread the amount of tickets you wish to purchase. This is morally (if not legally) binding. In about 2 weeks the entry's closed, the prize is announced, a draw date is set (with about 1 week to make the actual payments for the tickets), and then we proceed with the actual draw. If we don't sell enough tickets we don't go ahead at all, and people won't have to pay for their tickets. But there will be a wailing and gnashing of teeth.
The overly nice people who already give monthly donations will have their donations this month counted towards their tickets. If you are one of these overly nice people, please post below with the amount you're donating this month, plus any eventual extra tickets.
Payment will be through the regular paypal account (not so regular, yet, since we've just got a new treasurer, but you know what I mean). He will verify the payments before the draw.
The draw will be made on The EvilDM Dice server, with results mailed to yours truly and some other trusty members of the community. I will reserve the right to have a redraw if I fuck up the first draw in any way (like having the wrong number of sides on the dice, etc).
So, sign up, everyone!
edit: last time this was an issue, so: after you've sent the money, pm waterproofbob with how many tickets you bought, how much you paid and your real name/email so he can correlate it with the pledges in the thread
