Well folks, it's been a year already, and the FTBCF has been a great success. We've had hundreds of new members, shared countless bits of priceless (and admittedly, sometimes useless :hick:, but hey, that's what the internet is for) information, and even created several online friendships. Yes, I would call that a success by any stretch.
Unfortunately, with anniversaries come bills:mad:. Our domain and hosting service is due for another year's worth of funding:deal:. Last year this was made possible through the donations of many members, and it was greatly appreciated:bowdown:, but this time I'd like to give something in return for the shmoozing for dough, so I've decided to have a raffle. It goes like this:
$10 gets you one ticket:
$20 gets you two:
$25 gets you three:
Ticket sales have closed
The prize is your choice of a Thundercat TCSF-03 Deluxe sequential turn signal system kit with BONUS modified HD12 flasher for slower sequencing effect (ONLY available in this raffle, this flasher is not available for sale!), a pair of Thundercat TCMRLED white LED fog lights*, or a Thundercat TCWWF-4 four-way wigwag system. Already have a sequencer? Our completely redesigned TCSF-03 was released on October 1st, 2005, so you may want the newer model, or you may want one of the other prizes. The value of the prize ranges from $79-$100. The sequencer kit will work on 85-88 Cougars and 87-88 T-Birds.
But here's the clincher: For every $100 worth of tickets sold, one prize will become available. This means if $200 worth of tickets are sold, two prizes will be drawn. If $300 worth are sold, three prizes will be drawn. See the legal mumbo jumbo below for details. But HURRY! The deadline for buying tickets is 11:59PM EST, Monday, October 31st, 2005. The draw will take place on Tuesday morning after I wake up.

In the event that you win a prize it shall be considered that you bought the item for your donation amount. This isn't a real honest to goodness lottery, after all.

The draw will take place like this: On Tuesday, November 1st, 2005, I personally will print out the names of each ticket holder and then cut the names out to form a bunch of tickets. I will then put these tickets in a hat, drum, bottle, or other container and shake vigorously. I'll then draw out one name for each prize offered (if there are four prizes I'll draw four names, for instance). Once I have drawn the names I will email the winners to ask them which prize they choose, SO MAKE SURE YOU HAVE A VALID EMAIL ADDRESS!!! Winners will also be posted in this thread, so if you see your name here and I didn't contact you, FIX YOUR EMAIL. Prizes unclaimed after one week will be drawn for again and given to a new winner. The entire drawing process will be monitored by my cat Stewie, who is completely neutral (having been neutred) to ensure that I am completely impartial.
-
Prizes must be accepted as offered. No substitutions, no cash value. *Should the winner chose the TCMRLED fog lights they will be furnished in white and will not contain internal flashers.. They will function as fog lights only.
-
Odds of winning for each ticket shall be no greater than 1 in 10 and no less than 1 in 19. The number of prizes drawn will be determined by the following:
- $1-$199 worth of tickets sold: 1 draw
- $200-$299 worth of tickets sold: 2 draws
- $300-$399 worth of tickets sold: 3 draws
- $400-$499 worth of tickets sold: 4 draws
- And so on. The number of tickets sold and draws currently eligible will be posted in this thread about this raffle.
- Each draw winner will have their choice of the prizes noted above
- All prizes will be delivered via Canada Post/USPS expedited parcel service, or if that is not available to your country, airmail.
That's it! Simple as that! Buy your tickets, and you could win great stuff!
