Tmadz Posted September 1, 2015 Report Share Posted September 1, 2015 Karma has been good to me this yer and my bags are updated. I don't have anything at the moment that I want to pass on. So to help out the community more I thought that it was time to put a little cash back into circulation for a lucky winner. I will buy a $25USD gift certificate or credit for a lucky winner at the kite shop or vendor of their choice. The Karma Forum moderator bbailey49 has offered to add some spice to the drawing. For every 3 people who get "In" on this drawing, I will add $5 of my own money to the gift certificate up to $25 additional dollars. 15 people means you get a chance at $50 instead of $25. Our Esteemed KiteLife host, JB, has also pitched in a 1 year subscription or renewal to KiteLife for the winner.I am willing to do international but as long as it can be completed and you can fulfill your part to keep Karma flowing. I will work with the winner to the best of my abilities to complete the prize, but please be aware that I may need some assistance from you. Not all shops have gift certificates or gift cards. This is a new award so please be reasonable.All of the usual rules apply, etcetera etcetera.Drawing will be my morning on October 3rd. I can be an early riser. Standard Karma Note from the Moderators This is a Karma Drawing. The winner of the drawing is expected to pay it forward by offering their own prize for the next drawing. Please do not enter unless you are willing to offer your own prize, preferably not the prize you just won. Drawings should be open for entry approximately 2 weeks, and the next drawing should be posted as soon as possible to keep the Karma rolling. These drawings are run by and for KiteLife members. The moderating team only ensures that your drawing post contains all of the pertinent information (drawing date/time, adequate prize description, drawing rules) before approval.If you are a KiteLife forum member from the US or Canada, you are eligible to enter. You do not have to be a paid subscriber. Members from Canada, Alaska, and Hawaii are welcome to enter the Karma drawings provided they are willing to pay half of the Karma prize shipping cost. The method and timing of the payment will be agreed upon between the two parties after the drawing for a particular prize. Here is the link to the original Rules and Guidelines thread: http://kitelife.com/forum/topic/5426-rules-and-guidelines-please-read/ The mechanism for the drawing itself is entirely at the discretion of the person offering the prize. In the past, entry number has been determined either by order of entry or by the post number in which the member declares entry into the drawing. The drawings have been performed using the RNG method (http://www.random.org/sequences/) or by choosing the numbers out of a hat (I believe an adorable daughter did the picking in that scenario). The only requirement is that the method of selection is clearly spelled out in the drawing post. Entry into the drawings is done by STARTING a post in the drawing thread with the entry phrase chosen by the drawing host (Traditionally "I'm in", but "I LIKE" has been used as well). In order to remove any confusion or misinterpretation, only entries with posts that START with the phrase will be considered. As with all other KiteLife drawings, bantering is encouraged. This is for fun after all. 1. Jeepinjeepin 2. Imoaks 3.Makatakam 4.John Barresi 5. elmo264 6.Mywindstuff 7. Brucifer 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bbailey49 Posted September 1, 2015 Report Share Posted September 1, 2015 Great prize! I'm going to add a little spice though, Todd, if you don't mind. Participation seems to have waned a bit of late. So for every 3 people who get "In" on this drawing, I will add $5 of my own money to the gift certificate up to $25 additional dollars. 15 people means you get a chance at $50 instead of $25. Spread the word, folks. This is a really great thing we have going here. -B 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tmadz Posted September 2, 2015 Author Report Share Posted September 2, 2015 Sorry. I tried to copy and paste, but I think I grabbed the wrong stuff. Maybe if we highlighted the relevant stuff back in the original Karma rules for future postings. Thanks Barton for the clean up. BTW, thanks for the spice, Barton. You're a righteous dude. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks Barton for the clean up. ---I cleaned up the drawing post a bit more to delete the information that was redundant between the standard moderator note and the rules description. I'll do more work tomorrow when I a real computer. Mark, thank you for pointing out the conflicting information. I completely missed that. ( BTW, thanks for the spice, Barton.

bbailey49 Posted September 11, 2015 Report Share Posted September 11, 2015 All, I have had a discussion with Tmadz and jeepinjeepin, and due to the lack of participation in this drawing thus far the drawing date is being extended to October 3rd. If we do not get sufficient participation by that point I will be discussing with JB the possibility of shelving the karma drawings at least temporarily.

John Barresi Posted September 15, 2015 Report Share Posted September 15, 2015 I'd be happy to add a one year KiteLife subscription (renewal/refund or new) to this drawing as well. If that's ok, go ahead and add it to the lead post and I'll share it around. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

John Barresi Posted September 15, 2015 Report Share Posted September 15, 2015 Grrrr, appears that Facebook is having problems "linting" our website... Not finding a lot of info about it, but I'm working on this where I can. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jeepinjeepin Posted September 15, 2015 Report Share Posted September 15, 2015 I'm trying to lure a guy in. I recently hooked him up with a Snapshot 2.5 that I stole on eBay. Hopefully he will make some wooden card, reel, and yo-yo winders that will bring everybody back out of the woodwork. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jeepinjeepin Posted September 20, 2015 Report Share Posted September 20, 2015 Ok, he isn't coming, but will make me a winder to give away. That is, if this thing keeps rolling. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

John Barresi Posted September 25, 2015 Report Share Posted September 25, 2015 FYI, shares on Facebook *should* work now. No stress, we'll do what we can with it - up to $50 in gift certificate and a yearly sub ($32.95) is a good offering. Undecided, but we may indeed put the karma drawings on hiatus for a couple months if we don't see more folks in on this one - we'll see. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

makatakam Posted September 29, 2015 Report Share Posted September 29, 2015 Ok -- I'm in. Just found something in my bag that I can't use, but would be a nice addition to just about anyone's bag. And if you've been playing the Karma, then you know that the goodies I offer are really good. So, come on in people, the water's fine. Let's keep this alive. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You could, but at your level of experience it is probably not a necessity, only a confirmation. However, you are certainly welcome to play. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
