Didn't we used to do this as a fundraiser for the site? 5 bitcoins per entry with prizes for the winners etc. Something like that.

Depends if we go with tradition as explained by Dazby. I'd be delighted to pay an entrance fee with the profits going to forum upkeep. If everyone agrees to do this as well an admin can now take over, set the fee, collect the cash, decide the prizes and do the draw.

Otherwise I'm also happy to go with any other non-monetary suggestions for a prize liked by the sweep. Over to you chaps.

would it be possible for any of the other lucky sweepstake holders to say if they don't want to follow the tradition explained by Dazby (on here or by PM) - if everybody is happy to pay an entrance fee I can ask an admin to take over from here and do the draw. Paypal seems the way forward to me.

Only thing I've seen by Dazby is his post top of this page asking if we had done it previous. I've no problem paying, but we've donated to the sight before it certainly wasn't by bitcoin. Fairly sure I stuck my card details into a secure link provided by admin/mrm, could have been PayPal which I repeat I'm happy with, can't do a cheque as I don't have them anymore, I don't use internet banking (too many friends fucked over because the banks can't keep up with the robbers). If all else fails I will stick the money in an envelope and post the thing.
