Whether I win it or not… I’m incredibly grateful that we get to help Mikie out; he really deserves it.
Okay guys. Sorry for the delay. I’m by myself today. I’ve been waiting on my friend to come over so we can have another phone and I can record myself doing the draws. But it looks like he’s not gna make it. I could wait til tomorrow but I feel like you guys would rather we get it over with. Since I just have my one phone right now. I can just draw the names and announce them here live as I’m going along. I’ll be using a random generator. A lot of people elected not to have their name shown so I be using first initial and last name. I will draw for the 2 evil first, then 54, followed by pragma.
In addition to those three I will have an additional five gifts to give away. Here they are
We’ll call them gift pack A, B, C, D and E.
First ones a brand new 2024 yyr diffusion with monkey finger grip garage and 10pack vines
B is brand new Topyo 2024 colossus 7 an awesome underrated yo-yo with sick anno and great blasted finish, with monkey finger buff and 10pack vines
C is New Topyo macaroon with 25 pack yyr thin string for looping. Box is just for show. Plus 10 pack vines
D is Mike Monty memento hand polished by me with 50 pack of Vosun green poly Fat
E is an accessory pack that includes brand new nylon glove, yo-yo pouch, yoyo holster, one permatex flowable silicone, sticker pack, 2 yoyo stands and bearing removal tool, all items are brand new.
Also every prize will include a complimentary yoyo stand. I was thinking for these prizes is to draw the winners and let the winners decide which prize they want.
So winner #1 from this group would say which pack they want. And it would get crossed out. Then 2nd winner will select the one they want from the remaining and so on. How does that sound?
Draw is going live now!
First winner for the stunning 2evil is:
K. Mason
2nd winner for the Tuesday market 54 is:
T. Simco
3 winner for the pragma is:
S Reams
There’s our first three winners! Thanks again to everyone. Sorry for the delay. I have my 3 year old with me now so I’ve been chasing after her trying to get her to bed. Just got her to lay down. We still have 5 more gifts to give away I’ll be doing the draw for those in a few moments
For the 5 prize packs winners in order are
A Simmons (audreysickburn)
Kyle(slow throw)
Collin (son of morris)
T. Mcnutt
Daniel (woozie)
Audrey u can message me and tell me which pack you want, then I will update the list so the next person can choose theirs and so on. If I don’t hear back from anyone by tomorrow for that, they’ll just be distributed in the order they were listed!
Thanks again to everyone. I know there’s still a few people who didn’t get a gift. I wish I could’ve had one for everyone! Seriously. I’m super thankful and grateful to be a part of this awesome community. And it really is a community. I feel like that term is thrown around for everything now, it’s seems like every hobby and everything else has its own community. But there’s a difference between a random group of people who all like the same thing and an actual community. This one’s the real deal. And I’m happy to be a part of it. Genuinely don’t know what I would’ve been doing these past two years if not for yo-yo and this forum.
Everyone who won message me with ur shipping info!
Congratulations everyone!
Hey guys bear with me a bit on the getting all the prizes shipped out. I’ve got most of every bodies info but I’m out of town today. I will try to get what I can shipped out tomorrow morning and then everything else should be shipped out by Monday! Tuesday at the latest but I will update everyone with tracking as I go! Thank you again
The last few should get shipped out tomorrow. I think there’s still one or two I haven’t heard from. Please reach out if u see ur name and haven’t spoken with me yet.
Sorry to the last couple people who haven’t got tracking info! They will go out first thing in the morning! I promise!
Okay the last of everything went out today if you haven’t recovered a tracking number please reach out to me. My inbox is insanely cluttered since I did the giveaway and it’s a pain going thru every message to find everyone there was a lot and I have multiple messages from almost everyone. So if you haven’t got tracking and would like just shoot me a pm and I’ll have it for you. Otherwise you should all be receiving in a few days… thank you again to everyone who participated even if it was just reaching out with some kind words and encouragement it all meant the world to me. Seriously you have no idea how much it meant. Just know if you reached out in any way or made a contribution of any amount it really made a difference and I’m so beyond grateful for all of you.
From the bottom of my heart, thank you!
Also just an fyi, our end result was very far off from the stated goal. But that goal was just a number. I never expected to reach that. The amount we got was actually way more then what i expected, and my family didn’t know I was putting this on it was a surprise kinda. We had my moms casket chosen already but the one we had wasn’t one we were happy with at all we definitely had to settle cuz of price issues. And I want u guys to know that with the money from this fundraiser it allowed us to be able to upgrade my mom’s casket and get her a beautiful one that I know she would’ve loved. She actually had very specific instructions for her funeral, she was like that. So thank you all again. I love you guys!
