Send Chad to Africa ? Custom Figure Raffle
« on: April 14, 2009, 01:29:14 PM »

This June 1st ? 14th, I am returning to Niger, West Africa.
To help support my trip, I am offering up the chance to win a customized 3 ?? GI Joe figure.


Here are the rules to enter the raffle:
    - Each raffle ticket is $10.
    - The drawing will be held May 28th, 10 PM EST via webcam feed.
    - You may buy as many tickets as you want.
    - Three raffle tickets will be chosen.
    - Buy more to increase your chances of winning.
There are a few limitations on the custom figure:
    - The figure will not be a remake of any custom.
    - Parts can be from any era of 3 ?? figures.
    - Winner will not be required to donate parts, though this may limit the custom.
    - Only limited modifying/sculpting will be done.

Tickets can be purchased using Paypal (no credit cards) at this address: chad(at)smelcer(dot)net
or via check/money order (address is available here).
** It has been brought to my attention that paypal does not allow raffles.  If you choose to add a title to your donation, please use this format: Mission Donation from your board name
Each ticket will be confirmed via pm or email with your raffle ticket number.  If you do not receive a confirmation, please contact me.

If you would like more information or questions about the raffle, please post here.

And the winners are:
1st pull- DarkWynter
2nd pull- DarkWynter
3rd pull- Normus
4th pull- Goofateer (runner-up)

DarkWynter has passed on his second figure.  Check out the story:
Quote
I was very tempted to take both my draws.....but I will pass the second draw. I told SilverWynter [his daughter] if we got one I'd request the custom for her. When I told her the situation she was excited, then calmed down and thoughtfully informed me that we have enough toys. I am humbled by this and can't take both.
Thanks to both DarkWynter and SilverWynter for their kindness.

Also, thanks to all that participated in the raffle!  I was able to raise $230 toward my trip.  You all have been a blessing to me.
