Hey Arkers, I just started this up over on HissTank.com, and I figured I'd post if over here for anyone interested.

Some of you probably know by now that my girlfriend, Dark Songstress, is currently out of commission due to fighting cancer, and as we all know, that isn't cheap.

Well, talking with her brother today, it seems she's undergoing a new treatment to break up the big masses of dead cells that have accumulated due to her body's weakened state, and thus inability to remove them. Or at least that's my understanding of it. Either way, the treatment is painfully expensive (to the tune of about $9000 a shot), and, worse yet, is not covered by their insurance.

Immediately before the conversation in which this was revealed to me, I came across this little gem.



As I personally have no particular desire for the figure, I decided that this was nothing short of an act of Providence, and upon thinking it over, I have realized what I must do.

In order to best serve the HissTank Community and the person I love, I am raffling off a Mint on Card Renegades Storm Shadow.

"But Tali, how do I get in on this?" You might ask.

To submit your entry, please send me a PM with the subject "Ninja vs. Cancer", and I will give you my paypal information. On 6/8/2012, I will place the names of all entrants in a bag, shake it like a Polaroid picture, and draw one at random. The winner will be announced in this thread, and the lucky Tanker will receive his brand new Renegades Storm Shadow.

There are, however, four simple rules I ask everyone to keep in mind.

1. Entry fee is $1 flat. Shipping will come out of my own pocket.
2. Ticket packages are available in packs of $1, $5, and $11. (see below)
4. Your name will not be entered unless payment is received.
5. All entries are to be submitted by 11:59 on 6/5/2012.


Quote:
TICKET PACKAGES
$1= One (1) Entry for Final Drawing, One (1) Entry for Drawings 1-3.
$6= Two (2) Entries for Final Drawing, Five (5) Entries for Drawings 1-3 (split however you please).
$11= Three (3) Entries for Final Drawing, Ten (10) entries for Drawings 1-3 (Split however you please).
Simple, right? So, who's ready to help in the fight against the tiniest, deadliest, most traitorous foe of all?

If anyone is interested in contributing additional prizes, please let me know and I'll add it in the next post. Please include any specific parameters you wish attached, if any.ormation. On 6/6/2012, I will place the names of all entrants in a bag, shake it like a Polaroid picture, and draw one at random.

There are, however, four simple rules I ask everyone to keep in mind.

1. Entry fee is $5 flat. Shipping will come out of my own pocket.
2. Each ticket for the main drawing of Renegades Storm Shadow is $5.
2. Entries for additional prizes are $1 per entry (Please specify your choice).
3. Your name will not be entered unless payment is received.
4. UPDATED There is no ticket cap. The more, the merrier.
5. All entries are to be submitted by 11:59 on 6/5/2012.

Simple, right? So, who's ready to help in the fight against the tiniest, deadliest, most traitorous foe of all?

If anyone is interested in contributing additional prizes, please let me know and I'll add it in the next post. Please include any specific parameters you wish attached, if any.

Alright Guys, big news...

Because we are so close to the half way point, Kaedryl has asked that I go ahead and disclose to the public our $1000 grand prize. Brace yourselves...

The Super Spectacular Secret Prize is a Complete, Restored, 1988 Night Raider.

Remember, to unlock this bad boy, we need to hit $1000, so tell your friends, tell your family, tell that creepy dude that lives under the bridge on your way to work!
