I'm in, contribution made.

Thanks for the giveaway.  I've been lurking for a while, but recently joined up officially.  I've donated because I appreciate all I've learned here.

I'm quite pleased that people are participating. I'm sure Def will appreciate the help for MTO operating funds. I've no idea actually the amount of time and associated costs go into running a forum, but I'm guessing it's not easy, a requires a fair amount of monies. So thank you to all.

I'm planning on running it thru the 13th, then choosing a winner on the morning of the 14th if that's agreeable. If you guys would like me to run it a couple days longer, just let me now. I've been rooting around in my many storage boxes so I may be able a couple extra mystery box items as well. ;)

And as always, I'm very approachable to some under the table arrangements to help boost your chances of winning. In either alox, or I'll let you know my pp address. Friend & family plz. Lol. I'm just kidding. Hopefully my sense of humor doesn't p.o. anyone. :) My wife frequently reminds me that I find myself funnier than many others tend too. Odd folks out there.

Anyway, back on topic, please be sure in your post you're indicating you've entered as though are the ones I'll be counting, and once I have my random number from that total, I'll count down thru just those "entered" posts. So posts such as this one with me babbling away, won't affect your chances.

Thanks again everyone!! **I will post another reminder a day or so before closing so it'll get bumped back up in case someone missed it.

Joe

I would love to enter as it is a great competition and very kind of you Joe. I can't afford to contribute to MTO at the moment so i would request you do not enter me in the competition as i think someone who has contributed will be more deserving than me.

This is a fantastic site. Amazing people and competitions like this is a sign of the quality of the people.

Hey Guys, and Ladies -

Since this thread hadn't had any new posts for a bit and before it slides off the second page, I've decided to move the ending up to Sunday night, and I'll pick the winner on Monday morning.

So I wanted to give it a bump in case someone missed it.

Please be sure to indicate you'd like in and have made some type of contribution, whether with cash to MTO, or in forum activity if other means aren't possible for you, that's fine btw, so I know to count you in.

Thank you to all the nice comments and I'm grateful to have helped support the forum in a very small way.

And as another reminder, Def is running another MTO giveaway I encourage you to check out.

Thank you! Joe
🇨🇭

After many, many long hours sweating over my massive Cray supercomputer and my vintage abacus, the results of the giveaway was decided.

Our forum member from Australia, Huntsman, is the winner and I have sent the notification PM for his address so I may get the package on the way.

I thank each if you for participating and helping to support our forums!

Appreciated!!

Joe

Wow - Thank you Joe ....... and your Cray and abacus

I am a lucky duck - As this was a truly awesome giveaway and outrageously generous.

Thank you - Thank you - Thank you    :D  :D  :D

I am very excited as I have wanted a Minichamp - and laterly an Alox MC for ages.
I also read here that they are not in the catalogue this year - so I guess will become rarer.
- And the other goodies are also fabulous, a bit different, and very useful - which is fantastic !

Will send you my address and piccies will follow

I will defintely be sittting out the next few GAWs - As I have been incredibly lucky, and experienced wonderful MTo generosity here recently!
I will also be running my own GAW in a little while as I have my own MTo significant event coming up!!

BTW - I still can't get over the whole concept of the GAW anyway  ???  It is brilliant and seems contrary to this selfish busy world in which we live.  :-[  MTo is a breath of fresh air and filled with very warm, fun, supportive and generous folk  :tu: - Of course sharing our common passion.  8)

Very good Huntsman - I'm glad you noticed the post and have provided the info I need to send them.

The box will go out tomorrow, and I will provide a pic of the box & paperwork.

I'm sure you'll enjoy your instant EDC setup. There may or may not even be an extra item that slipped by the post listing process, but made it into the box going to Australia. One of the countries I've always wanted to visit. Made it to New Zealand, but not Australia.

Thank you for supporting MTO and a special thank you to Def for his tireless efforts running this madhouse.

I've sent you another PM btw Huntsman...

Happy Easter Everyone! I'm getting a jump on the holidays in the new year. One of my resolutions. :)

Joe
