Yes because walking to the postoffice and mailing a BFSingle to the winner is going to be REALLY complicated.

Yea, still waiting for that magazine that I paid for awhile back.

So this is an anonymous raffle, where this guy can just 10000 tickets from himself if he wants, lowering everyone else's odds?

Just think of it as a fundraiser for.... Idunno. Matt, putting stuffed monkeys in the Bitcoin magazine packaging, obese Americans requiring medical care?

https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=7216.msg788659#msg788659

I wanted to buy a few of those icarus boards but I found out he does not accept dwolla too late! I had already sold a boat load of coins for that purpose....


I think those icarus boards are very well built in fact I try to recommend them to people every chance I get, its amazing one person handles that entire business - props to ngzhang

So this is an anonymous raffle,

Quote
a·non·y·mous   [uh-non-uh-muhs]
adjective
1.
without any name acknowledged, as that of author, contributor, or the like: an anonymous letter to the editor; an anonymous donation.
2.
of unknown name; whose name is withheld: an anonymous author.

Learn 2 engrish.


where this guy can just 10000 tickets from himself if he wants, lowering everyone else's odds?
I guess it's possible, but since the entire list of sold tickets will be made public at the end of the auction, it'd be a very expensive scam for me wouldn't it?

You see, if I were to be involved in such a petty small-time scam for a few hundred bucks, I'd give up the tens of thousands of dollars I am already able to make in the Bitcoin community doing legitimate work.

Why don't you take a seat and I'll call you when the raffle ends.

Was covered earlier on up in the thread, look for the picture of a high mountain lake.

Our family was terrorized by Homeland Security.  Read all about it here:  http://www.jmwagner.com/ and http://www.burtw.com/  Any donations to help us recover from the $300,000 in legal fees and forced donations to the Federal Asset Forfeiture slush fund are greatly appreciated!

I just created a new email for it.
Best spam solution coz you also know who or where your email address was garnered from.

I do that every time I sign up to anything on the planet ... I've got about 550 email addresses - rarely have to close them down ... the latest one that got spam was one I registered at the bioware forum for mass effect 3 years ago - started getting spam this week ... no idea why, but I just remove the address and bye bye spam
(of course it also helps that I own 30 domains)
I do have a few addresses that have been getting spam for over 10 years that I use for training my Bayesian filter - they get around 300 spam a day - last time I checked ... a year or so ago.

There, some useless info about spam from someone who's (not very successfully) been fighting it for well over 10 years Cheesy

LOL - well yes that's the biggest cause of spam AND computer problems.
I used to fix home computers but got sick of doing that.
90% of the time the problem was some male member of the house was downloading porn that the other members of the house didn't know about ... I got varying different responses to my description of the problem and how to avoid it in the future Cheesy

There's a better way - sign up for hushmail service. Its free for a year, then it costs $30/year.

They have a feature called pseudonyms - you can add an unlimited number of these to your account, they are just like creating a new email account. If you get spam on a specific pseudonym, just delete it from your list.
