As I was trying to get to sleep last night, an idea came to my head. Have a sort of drawing for a bullwhip. My idea is to make it
where it cost $5 to get your name entered, and you can get your named entered again for an additional $5, with a MAXIMUM number of entries
of 10, as I don't want somebody buying in 20 times and it being an easy runaway for them, I want everybody to have a chance.
Once I'm sure everybody that wants to enter has entered, I'll cut up a bunch of pieces of paper all the same size, write the
names on them, randomly put them in a box or something, shake up the box, then with my eyes closed, draw one name.
Here's where the "run it by" everybody thing comes in. I want enough entries so that it at least covers the material cost of the
whip. As long as that's covered, I'll provide the labor free, but again, I want the materials at least covered.
The prize is a bullwhip, any length, up to 12 ft. , any plait count, up to 16 plait ( the 16 plait will go for whips up to 8 ft., for
anything over 8 ft. the max is 12 plait ). Also it can be any style, handle length, etc. , and is fully customizeable to what
the winner wants. PLUS, shipping is free, which includes international!
Ok, here's what I'd like everybody that thinks they'd want to participiate do. Please send me a PM , with the subject line
"Drawing". In that pm I'd like you to tell me how many times you'd like your name entered, your username, ( which I'll see
in the subject line but I'd like to see it in the individual messages as well ) and your paypal email address ( I won't charge
anything until I've mentioned on this thread that I've received enough entries, then I'll send out the paypal invoices ), if you
can't use paypal, I'm open to other forms, just pm me to ask about it!
I thought this would be a fun thing for everybody, and give the chance for one person to get a good, VERY cheap whip. I won't
be skimping out on quality just because it's a drawing, I'll be using the same good quality kangaroo I always use, and be putting
100% into the whip as I always do.
I'm also putting this up on other forums so I can be sure that enough entries are done, so if you are on another forum and
you see this, PLEASE only enter on one of them, as this could get confusing if not done correctly!
