I  LOVE Multitool.org
I discovered this place in June of last year, and it is my favorite THING on the internet   :whistle:

yes, it has enabled ( :pok: ) many purchases, but it is also a utopia of awesome people who are polite, kind, helpful, and just simply amazing!
One of the purchases that I discovered because of my visits here was a Skinth, and I use it EVERY day. so if you are not familiar,  check it out now  http://skinthsolutions.com/

the perfect Skinth is different for each person, so I contacted @Metropolicity  to set up this Give-away in a Gift-card style, and he jumped on board and actually matched the amount I was going to put into this gift card give-away.  with a gift card, a person can get the Skinth they want at a discounted price.

The Gift cards with be valued at $15 USD  and there will be 8 winners.  So, a big thanks to @Metropolicity  for helping make this happen.

This Give-away, does have one catch though,  You get one entry for every dollar you donate  to the site, through this link  DONATE

make sure you list your name, as we cannot see your donation otherwise. 

to even sweeten the pot some more,  for every $10 you donate you are entered for the monthly donation draw (and get your entries for the Skinth Gift cards) and the prize this month is superb, check it out for yourself -  July Donation Draw

since the entries are automatic the drawing will be at the beginning of next month.

last piece of housekeeping,  you can win more than one gift card (unless you only donated $1, then you can only win one),  I will not restrict each person to just one card, I think that punishes those who donate a large amount.

so, good luck everyone!   HAPPY ANNIVERSARY MTO!!

Mods,  I know i can see the donations no problem,  but is there a way that you can help ensure I get the last list possible (as not to miss anyone who gave at the last minute?)

thank you very much

Very cool giveaway and thanks to you two. :hatsoff:

General is fine, it gets the most exposure, but maybe post a link to it in the Donation draw thread too.

As for the final list, that will have to come from Def as we blue badges don't see it after the 31st.

very cool giveaway -- thanks detron and Metro! :cheers:

I already have one Skinth that I LOVE, but I could certainly use another one!

one question... if we already donated this month before this GAW was posted, do those dollars still count for entries?  ;) :D

I was advised to have people post here, sort of "work for it" on this Give away, but I felt bad since I did not do that right away.

so to compromise, and not mess up someone who will not re-read this thread, but favor those who check in and take the time to post a gratuity or just simply say they are interested, their entries will be doubled. when I tally everything up and begin the drawing itself.

this does include the entries that are already here.

If I can help, let me know

just a heads up so everyone (ESPECIALLY THE MODS) knows,  I have already paid Metro my share.

so weather I make it until the end of the month or not, the GAW will still happen.

Fret not, I am not ill or anything,  I am just a realist who knows death could be around any corner, at any time.

and I am also a man of my word who feels that a little thing like death should not negate my promises, if possible.

therefore,



good luck to everyone

OK,  the work is done.

there were 37 people who were entered, and there are 8 gift cards,  so good odds.

My Donations and Metro's donations did not count.


those who posted here were given a multiplier towards what they donated, as a bonus for their time.  Originally I said those who posted here would get double, but since so few did, I went triple.

I use Linux, so all I had to do was run this

Code: [Select]
shuf -i 1-1172 -n 1
8 times (I was lucky that no number was Re-selected, so no complications)

compared the entries to the donation spreadsheet, and where the numbers fell, the winner was selected.




So,  Congratulations to the following members

bmot
Breezy12
derekmac
Etherealicer
Huntsman
lowtech
sawman
Smashie

I will PM you your $15 coupon code.

the code can be given away, or gifted to others, but the code can only be used once.

thank you all for playing!
