Tosses in again. Hopefully in before the lockdown

[Darth Sensei]

I'd like to participate and will pay via paypal as soon as I know if I made it in time for the "drawing".

It's first paid, first served. As of right now there are a few open slots. If you pay after #50 I'll return your cash.

[SoulBlazer]

Joe, did I make it in? I just sent my payment.

I stupidly chose last week to switch bank accounts in PayPal and did'nt know I could'nt send any money as a unverified member, nor did I know how long it would take for the depoists to come in.

If I did'nt make it, keep the money to help defray the expenses for the person who wins.

[DeputyMoniker]

I just entered...I hope I made it in time!

[Sniderman]

Looks like Round 2 is filled up. Good luck to everyone!

Something to ponder: I think it says a lot about an online community when ** $1,000 ** is basically donated to send two people to CGE. Sure, we're all hoping we get drawn, but most of us know that odds are slim (1 in 50). But the fact remains that we've raised this much so two of us can have one hell of an adventure. Kudos to you all.

And thanks again Joe for organizing, arranging and running these. Every year, one or two Digital Press members get a free trip to CGE. And that's an awesome prize, no matter how you slice it. Name any other online community that does the same.

That's what I thought.

Yep...sure I'd love to win, but it's pretty cool to contribute to someone else's trip to.

3rd drawing possible? I would not be shocked.

I would have liked to enter, but my job will interfere with the time frame. Maybe next year.

Shouldnt necessarily stop you. I live very close to where CGE is being held, and last year WALKED from my Apartment to the convention center in about 10 minutes. I'm in to help someone else have a good time.

Umm.. I don't really see how someone could walk from Upstate New York to California. Especially if he's busy with work.

He's saying that he entered even though he didn't have to because of how close the Expo is to his house. He more-or-less "contributed" towards someone else attending the convention. Ergo, even if you can't make it at all, you can still enter the contest and pay towards someone else getting to go for free. The selflessness of the people that post here. That's the point he was making. (Have I used enough italics in this post to make my point?)

Good luck to all who have entered. And to those who entered though they didn't need to, thanks for your donation towards another member's awesome summer trip!
