Yes, but I took up 3 spots. I'll give you one if you email me the entry fee before the draw. I'll PM you my email address. You can have slot 32 if you want.

I was actually thinking of handing out some custom user titles for people who don't pay.

I will start taking payments as first come first served now but will hold spots for people that have contacted me to make arrangements (JBR and now it looks like Nufy is ready to go). I will add you as 33 for now but you will be moved down into the 1 - 32 spot when I receive the last payment and find out who is getting bumped. I don't really want to do this but there is 27 paid entrants who want to find out if this machine is theres so I will risk pissing off one or two over 27+.

Email money transfers can be sent to gobsgraham at shaw dot ca

PM me if anyone has any questions or concerns.

In Alberta, only eligible charitable or religious organizations that have been issued a licence are allowed to conduct raffle events.

Looks like just ricoflame and Bossy, is that correct?

(I just don't want to hound them if they are in fact paid)

Those are the only two people that have not paid or replied to my PM to make any sort of payment arrangements.

I say we just boot them...

I'll even buy up one of there tournament entrance fees, I'm sure someone else would be willing to this as well... 1.5+ weeks is a ridiculously generous amount of time to give people. To sign up for something like this with so many other people and then not a) Pay promptly or b) Back out via a PM and instead ignore PM’s and play dead is pretty brutal... in my always humble opinion :P

Alright. I have sent follow-up PM's today and now if I don't receive payments by 5:00PM tonight, you will be removed from the raffle. Nufy has promised me win or lose he will pay when he gets back from vacation, but everyone else is in or out at 5:00 today. The tournament will take place tomorrow at 12:30 PM (lunch time) at Jameson's near Sunridge Mall. I know that some people can't make this but this has been a huge PIA for me and I don't want to take time away from my kids to do this at night. As long as 2 other people show up, the draw will happen then and there. I will also draw the second name for the football tickets and will draw an additional 3rd and 4th names in the event that number 2 doesn't want the tickets or can't go they can be passed along.

Sorry of this is not ideal for everyone but at this point I think everyone just wants it to be done one way or another. Let me know who is coming so I can make sure that this is viable.

As somebody who cannot make it across town on my lunch hour, I'd just like to say I don't like this idea. Even if there are two people who are there along with you, what happens if one of those people wins?

I can appreciate that this has been a bit of a pain, and you don't want to lose time with the kids. But what about the other ~30 of us?

I cannot be there, well I could but it looks bad when I bring the toddler with me. I assume that is a bar?

I have to agree with Ken, waiting around for deadbeat entrants sucks, but having zero chance to be able to go and be there for the door prize draws sucks as well.
