Yeah, my donation was done over a month ago and I still don't know whether or not it has even been received. I understand that you are busy, which is no problem at all, but it would be nice to know if you actually got my money, or that it failed in some way.

I'm sure it has, but I need to go back and check each one.  My plan was to get caught up during New Years weekend, but the wife unexpectedly wanted to get out of town.  Then I was going to do it Monday, but ended up with some sort of stomach bug that kept me in bed and had the room spinning if I even tried to read anything.  I will send confirmations shortly.  In the mean time, thanks for the support, everyone.

Okay, I think I got everybody.  I went through each and every PM (and there were a LOT of you), checked them against Paypal, and sent confirmation emails, and then updated profiles.  If I missed anyone, please let me know.  The support from all of you is greatly appreciated.

Bosk, so did you get my 0,2$ test donation? I've mentioned my situation on page 1. I didn't send a PM since it was a test to see if it worked without using a Donate! link because I've got some issues (or to be precise, PayPal has some issues) with my credit card.

I do realize I'm probably coming off as a bit annoying, but I do want to donate, and I just need a confirmation it worked right. In any case, I apologise for bothering you with that.

I did get $0.20 and cannot tell who it is from because the text is all in Cyrillic.

That's weird because I wrote "Evermind's test donation" in the description. Apparently PayPal is funny like that.

But since it's apparently the only Cyrillic donation I'll give it a go and do a real donation now with some random amount no one will send.

You don't read Cyrillic?

Everything I believed was a lie.
Hef is right on all things. Except for when I disagree with him. In which case he's probably still right.

Bosk, I haven't forgotten. Had to get through the holidays first.  :)

Winger Theater Forums........or WTF.  ;D
TAC got a higher score than me in the electronic round? Honestly, can I just drop out now? :lol

That's pretty much why I don't post much in P/R anymore.  I don't have you to slap me around and keep me in check when I go too far.

It's only been five days since the contest ended. I think bosk is just busy with other stuff and we'll get the contest results soon enough. :tup

I'm looking forward to my status and larger PM box, should be handy enough to run the roulette when my turn comes.

Yes on the contest ending.  No on the drawing (so far).  I am up to my eyeballs in trial preparation this week.  This weekend, I will tally the last few donations that came in and begin the drawing.

Thanks again for supporting the forums, both to those who donated and to those who support the forums other ways, including just coming here and contributing to discussion.  You guys are the best!

Done. Bummer I didn't get to donate by the 15th, but it's OK anyway. This forum has brought me many smiles throughout the 9 years it has stood, and it's a small thank you to everyone who's running this place.  :D

Donated on Monday (25th) regardless of the contest.  Just wanted to support the good folks at DTF!  If I'm in for the contest, then great, but just glad I could help out a little (more than just $0.20)  :biggrin:

If that was directed at me, I did donate more than $0.20 too. :P

Argument, the presentation of reasonable views, never makes headway against conviction, and conviction takes no part in argument because it knows.

I know I said I was going to try to get to it last weekend, but it didn't happen.  But I actually expect to get home at a reasonable hour tonight and just catch up on forum-related stuff with the wife and kids out of town.  So tonight should be the night, and then I will post the winners.
