SPJ Official Raffle Thread
 

what do you guys think of doing a raffle for a touch pro? what i was planning on doing is creating a new paypal account with the name raffle@Wckediden.net (wcked would have to hook it up) and than sell a number 1-30 for 20 bucks...... than once all 30 numbers are sold the raffle begans and i will record LIVE AND STREAING on www.qik.com under the Wckediden group that i made..... tell me what you think of the idea... or do you think that we should make it 10 bucks and have 60 slots? need some ideas because what i would like to do is have a raffle a month or something for a device and jsut do it that way not to make any money but instead to build up some rep for Wckediden :>

and post watcha guys think about this idea :>

HERE ARE THE OFFICIAL RULES!!
1. RAFFLES WILL BE ALTERNATING BETWEEN PROVIDERS OF GSM AND CDMA MONTHLY (SO FAIR FOR EVERYONE) (WILL POST UP PICTURES WITH MY USERNAME IN THE BACKGROUND OF THE PHONE)
2. THERE WILL BE 2 OPTIONS (BASED ON MY CHOICE) 60 TICKETS AT $12.00 OR 30 TICKETS AT $22.00 (EACH PERSON CAN PURCHASE UP TO 3 TICKETS) (STAFF ALLOWED BESIDES ME SINCE I WILL BE DRAWING)
3. EACH MONTH A THREAD WILL BE NAMED LIKE THIS "SPRINT TOUCH DIAMOND RAFFLE" TO GET INTO THE RAFFLE YOU HAVE TO POST YOUR UNIQUE PAYPAL RECEIPT NUMBER (SEND PAYPAL TO raffle@Wckediden.net) IN THE THREAD WITH THE NUMBER OF TICKETS YOU PURCHASED. THAN STAFF WILL ASSIGN YOU THE NUMBER/S FOR THE RAFFLE (PLEASE DONT ASK FOR CERTAIN NUMBERS THEY WILL GO IN ORDER)
4. WHEN ALL TICKETS ARE SOLD I WILL USE QIK (LIVE STREAMING) TO DRAW THE WINNING NUMBER. (FROM MY COWBOY HAT) I WILL POST THE LINK TO THE SMARTPHONEJUNKIE GROUP ON THERE SO ALL CAN SEE
5. ONCE A WINNER IS DRAWN I WILL POST THE WINNER IN THE THREAD AND CLOSE IT AS WELL AS PM THE WINNER GETTING THE INFORMATION ON WHERE TO SEND IT OUT TO.
6. NOW LETS HAVE FUN :>

Re: Idea For SPJ
 

I'm game for it

Re: Idea For SPJ
 

saweet because i think that this would be a great addition to have a monthly drawing :> and with the drawing being live and no way to edit the video there would be no saying that i was cheating and just gave it to the person that i wanted to give it to :>

Re: Idea For SPJ
 

That is true. I just wanna be the winner lol

Re: Idea For SPJ
 

works for me a chance to win something like that for 20 or 30 buck.........shit that would be awsome.....i dont know what kind stuff you can get ahold of but if it would be nice to have devices from different carriers.....like a different carrier every month, something like that.

Re: Idea For SPJ
 

thats what i was thinking too :> basically it would be high end devices onyl.... diamond, touch pro, (both gsm ad cdma) the google phone when it comes out and so on...... jsut basically waiting on wcked to see this thread and see what he says and if he can get me hooked up with thatemail address so i can make a paypal account :> and 20 bucks a pop will be the highest and 10 will be the lowest. just depends on phone and all on how many tickets will be sold.

Re: Idea For SPJ
 

I like it, although i think staff shouldn't be allowed to enter, just like how all the companys do it and shit cause if a staff member won im not sure how the members would feel. But anyway yaeh i totally dig the idea, its sweeet

EDIT: So i did a little searching on that site and like wtf dash i want to see more!!! http://qik.com/video/400071

Re: Idea For SPJ
 

that's sounds cool but what about posting it in members area, to get there interest.Reason why i say that some people don't work some go to school and some are in financial hardship ..It wouldn't hurt,and if they are down with it then we move forward.. or cast a vote.

Re: Idea For SPJ
 

hey I think this would be awesome...I am down for the 60 slots for $10 bucks each...and would members have the chance to buy more than one entry? Also...you all know I have connections...well I had the google phone earlier today and had it for a few hours...I tried almost every app on it...and all the features of the phone are cool as hell...touch screen is responsive as hell...it is the first truly finger touch screen phone which is just as responsive as the screen on the Iphone...and trust me I have tried them all from palms, wm phones, the only thing that had come close was the LG DARE...which is just a regular phone...but even that touch screen sucked compared to the iphone but the google phone does live up...no camcorder on the G1, just a camera with no flash...you have access to itunes like music store with the amazon mp3 store...alot of other great features as well...hit me up if you want to know more about phone...I actually enjoyed my time with it...

Re: Idea For SPJ
 

liking this idea dash! of course i wanna win! lmao

Re: Idea For SPJ
 

@ LOL TOKES AVATAR! grraet IDEA!! i AM DOWN!!

Re: Idea For SPJ
 

count me in...

and if staffs not allowed how can we keep from having any member of staff ask a friend to join to get the phone? im not saying this idea is bad, but if its a contest u want how about this??
WE HOLD A CONTEST ON WHO CAN GET THE BEST EXPOSURE FOR THE SITE.
ie ON T.V/NEWS/MAGAZINES etc.. aside from youtube because we all know who the youtube king is for the site !! but then again if we had video of someperson(s) doing what it takes to attract attention to the site that would be good... ie at the apple store telling ppl why WM based phones are better.. walking down a heavly populated area with signs/banners.. you all get the idea..

*edit, of course there will be guidlines for legal reasons, depending on what state we all live in..
its need to be a pic/vid that will have to include time and date.. also proof it was done bye a member, or assembled by a member..

Re: Idea For SPJ
 

yeah but that makes it hard bro i would be purchasing the phone and making squat but my money back off of the phone..... so really its jsut something for the members and to draw attention.... i will move this to the site news area and see what the members think :>

Re: Idea For SPJ
 

:surrender:NO PROBLEM, JUST AN IDEA :idea: lol..

Re: Idea For SPJ
 

just include the g1 and im DOWN!!

Re: Idea For SPJ

Re: Idea For SPJ

Re: Idea For SPJ
 

cool beans as long as others say so too we will have this impemented and starting in november. just want to make sure if i purchase the phones that will go up ofr raffle that people will purchase the raffle ticket numbers and all... :>

Re: Idea For SPJ
 

Hey D/\SH are we gonna keep the staff out and leave it for the members?

Re: Idea For SPJ
 

not sure want to get feeback on this from the members and all.... still an all live program do no way to rig it or anything.... and im planning on doing it somewhere in public so people will know that it isnt rigged and all.

Re: Idea For SPJ
 

If you buy the phones and no one buys the tickets then ill just buy the phones from you:dance3:

Re: Idea For SPJ
 

hahahahaha but thats no fun :< lmao im hoping this will be the next big idfea at Wckediden to get members a phone of their dreams for a cheap price :>

Re: Idea For SPJ
 

I agree with D/\SH, I'm thinking of those poor college kids that can't afford it and are still drinking Natual Ice beer

Re: Idea For SPJ
 

hahahhahahaha for sure thats where im at lmao.... but worth a shot to see what people think.... and not nattie ice its bud light round me... i cant stand drinking nattie :nasty:

Re: Idea For SPJ
 

I'm a dark beer man anything not made in america black and tans all the way

Re: Idea For SPJ
 

hahahaha for sure i do enjoy my german beers :> but hell the foreign shot costs too much and ill tell you what they leave me with quite a hangover.... still trying to get over one right now :<

Re: Idea For SPJ
 

I think it's a great idea! I want a touch pro but seeing how i'm testing my financial limits with all my gadgets...I have to wait to purchase it.

Re: Idea For SPJ
 

word i understand that fully.... we are all going through it right now :< thats why the thread to make sure that there will be interest before i drop the cash on the phone.

Re: Idea For SPJ
 

you went and got a diamond...ah man, I feel as though that device blows...I'm surprised that even Big Jew went to that...

Re: Idea For SPJ
 

its not that bad of a device really...... theres the ups and downs just like any other device.... and than by the time we get the custom roms to be fully complete and the phone running the way it is supposed to run they come out with some new device that starts the cycle all over again :>

Re: Idea For SPJ
 

im game but wait a few i just made botha car and truck payment :P

Re: Idea For SPJ
 

well if there is enough interest what it will be is starting next month and a new phone for each and every month with different providers and all so no providers and members get left out of the mix :>

Re: Idea For SPJ
 

swooot wells make sure its not around payment date :P 800 dollars a month= poor man walking beginning of the month

Re: Idea For SPJ
 

hahahahaha im hoping to start it in the middle of the month to make it easier for people to know what there cash books are looking like at the time :>

Re: Idea For SPJ
 

okay i dont feel like reading all this, but soo raffle or lottery whatever you want to call it, 20 for the ticket and the prize would be a maybe 100-200 dollar phone? this is amazing!!!!!!!!! lol. how are you guys gonna afford it? or where is the question?

Re: Idea For SPJ
 

its an 600 dollar phone and they pay for it by the raffle, aka 60 people pay 10 dollars thats 600 dollars aka the money it costs for the phone one person walks home with it. they gain nor lose money with it.

Re: Idea For SPJ
 

exactly...... 60 people at 10 bucks a pop and 4 times a year or something we may do one for 20 bucks a pop with 30 tickets sold to give better odds... either way with 30 or 60 tickets being sold the odds are pretty damn good compared to anything else out ther.e

Re: Idea For SPJ
 

im down. i think its a good idea. you just got to get lucky. hope i get lucky haha.

Re: Idea For SPJ
 

hahahhaaha for sure its like trying to lose your virginity all over again :>

Re: Idea For SPJ
 

ahhh that was the best 59 seconds of meh life ;)
