Title: RAFFLE: $20! [ends June 22nd] WINNER ANNOUNCED!
Post by: Gogan on June 07, 2012, 01:03:31 AM
That's right. This is a raffle for some cold hard cash! I want to share some forum love, but I don't anything I can part with ( no dups either ). So I'm offering up a straight up $20.

Here's the deal...

1. You MUST spend it on obey. Anygame you want! I'd RATHER someone buy something straight up with it, opposed to putting the $20 towards an $80 game. Surely if you find a game for $25, a $5 kick-in from you is fine, if you want.

2.  You must post here what you end up getting so everyone can see how cool you are.  8)

3. Anyone can enter, pick one up on me!

***I'm going to trust that you won't take the money and just post a pic of a game you already own.***

Fudge it, why not.  Sign me up.


But, I think how you should do this is have the winner find something on eBay or whatever, then you buy it for em.  That way you KNOW it went to what you wanted it to.  :)

I thought about doing that, but I'd like to put my faith in the community, that no one would be that much of a weasel. I guess it depends on who wins tho lol

I like that ebay idea :D Sounds better than sending actual money around half the world. But, that is a sweet raffle. Sign me up, if possible (we're like - quite a bit geographically apart and all that).

Post by: PunkicCyborg on June 07, 2012, 02:28:38 AM
Ha this is hilarious! Well I already have $20, mine is a little worn out and in "players condition" so I'll be sitting out on this but hopefully it goes to someone who'll apreciate it!
+1 Turbokarma to you though!
Title: Re: RAFFLE: $20!
Post by: grimm on June 07, 2012, 02:32:33 AM
Sure, why not. I could possibly get a couple of games for $20 seeing my PCE game collection is just two games ;)

I disagree. The best thing about this raffle is that there are no postal costs involved, therefore people from all over the world can enter without any extra overheads. Not all of us are located in the US. :wink:

I think that the community can be trusted to spend the prize money on Obey, what else is there to spend it on? :D
Title: Re: RAFFLE: $20!
Post by: soop on June 07, 2012, 03:51:49 AM
omfg, you're right.  My ex is selling some stuff on my eBay account, and she says what it gets can go towards my birthday present.  It's currently at £30ish with 2 days to go...  I might get Dracula X!!!  what a present that would be!

The game I got with the funds is God Panic. BlueBMW brought along a copy of the game to the Video Game Summit last month. It's a very wacky shooter. It's like a mix between Star Parodier and Cho Aniki. :P Thanks again Gogan!!

Many stages feature songs are that are covers/instrumentals of famous hits... IIRC, Stairway to Heaven? and others... GOD I AM OLD. I used to remember this stuff.

I haven't played the game in many years.

Yes!! Philips made some great TVs. I have a Philips 32 inch CRT with s-video and composite hookups in my den. It is has a nice crisp image, perfect for retro-gaming. :)
