[Mann.co] Free Lottery #1 – Community Donation Lottery (the future lottery)
30 replies, posted
Hey everyone,
First, I wish to apologize for the cancellation of the previous first lottery. Real life things came up, so I had no choice. To start up another lottery again, I am in need of your help. I currently lack the items to create a new lottery and I was hoping you could help me out.
The more donations I receive, the bigger the next lottery can be. The donations can be weapons, scraps, reclaimed, refined and even hats. But please, no crates. While I do appreciate if you’d wish to donate crates, I already have enough of those. However, crate #30 is highly welcome.
I also can’t always be around, so I highly encourage and recommend everyone to register on the [URL="http://tf2lottery.com/forum/index.php"]Official Lottery Forums[/URL] and make a thread in the [URL="http://tf2lottery.com/forum/viewforum.php?f=8"]Donation Section[/URL]. This way, I can easily add you. The forum is new and still needs some improvement, but it’s a good start to begin with. A kind reminder that at the registration page your steam information is required (Either your SteamID64 or CustomURL). If you need help with this, [URL="http://tf2lottery.com/forum/viewtopic.php?f=2&t=26"]This Thread[/URL] will help you out.
I thank everyone in advance. If you have any problems, you can email me at [email]Skyrider@tf2lottery.com[/email]

I really wish to re-create the first lottery again, and the more people helping out the better! This time however, I created a official TF2Lottery forum.
I'll of course will add items of my own within the lottery, like all of the lotteries I created. Maybe an unusual, but I still have to consider that.
<3 you all.
You really shouldn't let the failure of the first lottery get to you. While I was slightly irritated at the time, I think we all understand you just couldn't do it, and it was free anyway.
Can't wait for this!
I'd give you rep, but thankfully this isn't spuf yet.
Round 2
Goody
I can't wait!
I'm interested in donating, but the best I can give is uncraftable. Would this be okay?
I think that'll be oke. Seeing it's a hat nonetheless. I'd really appreciate if you could donate through the forums though, makes it much easier for me.
We could just add you through this forum too, I don't see how that makes it any more difficult.

True, but the problem is that my friend list also already is nearing it's peek. But yea, you could add me as well:

removed over 120 people. If I accidentally removed you, just re-add me.
I shouldn't have sold all that crap to the warehouse. Dammit.
Ah, well. Still grateful for this... I'll donate what I can.
All donors will also receive a private message (only on my forums, or I can't keep up) with an invite link to the next lottery without the need for them to sign up for it.

Yea, I also noticed this when I changed a forum post. Thanks for the heads-up. Fixed it.

The more donations that will be made, the faster the next lottery can start. The next lottery of course will be free and there will be no entry fee.
I've already received quite a few donations, which I'm very happy about:

Btw, seeing "Chryseus" finds this dumb.. I'll be sure to ignore you :p.
15 donations received so far! Which I'm pretty happy about. And perhaps good for you guys to know, but the first week the next lottery will be tf2lottery forum exclusive first. Doing this for a reason to keep it easier for me to keep track.

[quote]Hey everyone,
It's been a few days now since I set up the new forums plus the donation option for people to donate for the next lottery. Now, I don't wish to be rude as I thank the people who have donated so far, I really appreciate your help. But I noticed one thing.
There are over 700 people in my lottery group, and I'm pretty sure over 100 people have seen my donation announcement. Yet, not a lot of people respond to it. Like, they only care about gaining free items in self greed.
Don't get me wrong. I've been doing these lotteries for so long now, giving away free items because I like giving out. But it occurred to me that when I'm in need for some items to give away for the next lottery, not a lot of people wish to help out.
Like I said, I thank those 15 people who have donated which is helping me a great great deal for the next lottery. But truth being told, I did expected more people to help out.
Don't be greedy folks as I don't like greedy people. Don't be surprised if I cancel the lottery after the next one because people only wish to gain items for themselves and not give out. It's a !!GAME!! people... Don't be damn greedy. [/quote]
Reason why I don't donate: I'm poor. All the items I have are thanks to my luck and because there are amazing people which likes to gift things.
If people really can't donate because of lack of items, I can fully understand that. I have no problem with that what so ever. It's the people who can donate, but refuse to do so because of plain greed and wish to keep the items for themselves which personally irritates me. Though I am happy and appreciate the people who have been donating so far which will make the next lottery possible.
I can donate a Pyro's beanie if this is going to happen. But most of the time I just end up with weapons in return.

It's called a donation for a reason though ;).
Are you sure you cant use any crates? I have alot that I was going to sell to the warehouse before its stock was full.
I'm afraid I already have over 700 crates myself :p, don't think any more would be more helpful for the lottery. Thanks though.
Aight, my donation is in.
Congratulations to the recipient of that Sergeant's Drill Hat. Maggot.
Thanks MrIcePho3nix, appreciate it! :D
