Give me my new gold banner DJ

Witt

Could I, please, have mine too.

djensen

Sorry about the delay. Everything should be up to date now.

Witt

Perfect, as Always. Thank you.

Sooo….
I donated $10 and received my prized 2017 Bronze Badge (thank you very much), and would like to know if it would be acceptable to followup with a $25 donation and receive a Silver Badge and proudly display both badges for 2017? :-D

Not that I’m looking to “buy badges” or anything as nefarious as that, not in the least.
I am wholly motivated by an honest and pure desire to provide an acceptable level of support, within my budget, for the website and organization. :evil:

This train of thought started from a desire to ask about upgrading from my (what some might characterize as a humble/lackluster) initial donation, and then I thought…hmmmm… what if?..

just askin’ all in good fun, :-D

It turns out we’re in a little worse shape than I thought. I guess adding one at a time to the total led me to an error of about $200.

We’re, as of writing, $425.50 below last year. We also lost some sponsor revenue but gained a fraction of that back with the War Room sponsorship. We had no been getting the t-shirt pay outs but that was fixed and helped.

At this point I would be happy to match last year’s $2410. We had 37 people at $10 last year. A few Gold and Silver would be nice but 40 more Bronze would get us there for sure.

well I’m doing 10 because I want all three. I’ll throw a silver in too, as was suggested by someone earlier to make it a bigger donation.

Have to wait until I can pay someone to do it. Won’t be too long.

How much do you need ? Pretty sure the members can cover it.

djensen

The goal is to match last year. Go ahead and get a bronze. Encouraging others to get badges is worth much more than buying multiple badges. Thank you for your encouragement!

The goal is to hit the same number as last year.

I just did 25 bucks… I hope it helps!

Time for 2018 drive yet? While I can pretend it’s a Christmas present to myself? :P

Me too… I supported a week ago, need my 2017 Gold badge.

Hey everybody. Just got back from a nearly 3 week vacation. I was hoping to have time to keep up with badges while I was away but we were constantly on the move. I should get everybody caught up tonight.

Also, I apologize for not posting here before I left.

Witt

You have been very naughty (Fry) . Very naughty indeed!

Hope you had a great time away.

I hope you had a good vacation. I did just what I said I would, and threw in for Gold Sponsor at $60. I did it by paying $50 for Gold and another $10 for Bronze.

If you see that and wonder what I meant, I meant to pay you $60 for Gold, as I promised I would in another thread on the site.

Midnight_Reaper I appreciate the sentiment but I’d prefer that everybody just stick to single badges. I’m going to go ahead and refund the extra $10.

As you wish. I just wanted to put my money where my mouth was. No harm, no fowl.

Hell, I’ll pay all $50 for your 2018 patron badge, in exchange for your playing one game with my House Rules for A&A Classic and a public post here on A&A.org giving your thoughts on those rules after that play. You can say whatever you want about them - just the fact of you talking about them would make my year.

You heard it here first…

djensen

I’m actually not that great at A&A Classic anymore. 1942 SE is currently my game but I might try competing in Anniversary Edition at GenCon since it’s more easily available again.
