Yeah since there were so many posts in the "hardware for Humantiy thread" I decided it would be best if a new thread was made. After of course a off topic notice was given :P.

So yeah, just discuss where you have spread it too... or whatever you want.

Wow, all that chit chat in the other thread and this one is dead.... :D

Question: Should we post a raffle schedule stating what we are raffling and when? Or should we simpl yannounce the next weekes raffle item when we pick the current weeks winner?

I will tell you my personal opinion is that you should only announce the next prize after the current winner is announced. That way it keeps people interested and constantly checking the site for the next prize. In my opinion, if you posted the full schedule, then some might not donate until the prize they want is up. Then you will have big/little waves of donations.

Again, this is just my personal opinion and I am not unanimous about it. ;)

And the Winner is...... Number 114.

SkinnyD! You have just won a Crucial Ballistix Tracer Prize Pack with 1gb of RAM, mousepad, hat, and t-shirt!

Grats!

Also, Maugwa graciously re-donated his winnings from last week, the 1gb of Kingston DDR2 RAM to be raffled off again. However, we couldn't let him walk away with nothing. So we have decided to thank him for re-donating the ram to be raffled again we would send him a brand new Cooler Master power supply. Except he doesn't know this yet, so shhhhhhh! it's a secret.

Now, for next week we are giving away a Thernaltake Tsunami case!

Been there, done that. "Meeting" him ain't worth that many tickets. Now, if he was to spend a day giving modding lessons or at least take you out to lunch to a swanky Brooklyn bistro, then it might... depending upon the bistro. :D

Just a heads up... Brown stopped by my hous elast night with a nice sized box from AMD. It was big enough that I thought they sent my the CPUs they said they would with heatsinks, but I was wrong. They sent more CPUs then they said they would and they range from FX-55 to 4000 to Sempron 3200.

Remember, you have to be in it to win it.

I just want one period O_o. I have nothing right now. Just a pentium 1.6ghz comp that I borrowed from a friend while I get money together to build my new computer. That FX-55 would be soooo awesome!
