Are we only entered into the donation drawing if we donate today, or are we still entered if we've donated previously?

Better donate again, just to be sure.

North Rhine-Westphalia, Germany

as long as you see the info-field, you're not in it i think...mine just vanished after pressing "donate" @PayPal

United States

I literally just donated yesterday, and now this shows up? My luck never lets me down.

I can't donate

North Rhine-Westphalia, Germany

How, exactly, @lolman-0027 ?

I don't have Paypal

European Union

My payroll hasn't come around yet, so I have to wait a few days to donate again. so no raffle for me :P

but then again, I don't have a N64... so having a number of controllers for it would be worthless to me anyway.

Ughhhh this sucks, I literally have $5.23 to last me til payday (Friday) but I was also planning to buy this exact controller for Christmas, so it's like fuck what do I do?! Tough it out for 4 days broke and risk having needed that $5 for something, or donate again to potentially save $70-80 on buying the Hori myself...being a gamer is tough business.

And I dont have Paypal either Lolman and I can still donate...

Edit: And now since posting this the banner promoting the giveaway has disappeared? It was at the top of my pages and now it isn't, yet I havent donated for it yet. Anyone know whats up? I REALLY wanna win that controller, and supporting the site again is just a bonus!

I just thought about this, do you need to donate 5$ again if you already did or is like 1$ enough because in total you still donated more than 5$...

@ConkyJoe89 I guess it disappears on it's own, not sure tho because I closed it.

Texas, USA

Dang, well I was gonna donate, but now I'm sketched out lol. I don't want it to not count or something bc I didn't do it from the notification window haha. I also don't wanna donate if my previous donation enters me. I wish someone in the know could clarify 100%

For all you know 100 people could have entered the raffle. In that case, spending your last 5 dollars for the month for a 1% chance to win a controller seems a poor decision in my eyes.

When youre right, youre right. Still, I know it's gonna kill me to drop $80 on that controller thinking how I might've been able to save $75 of it haha :/

If you enter this giveaway you "only" payed 85$ for the controller if you don't win. It's not that much more so I think it's still worth it if you want the controller.

@ConkyJoe89 Yeah it only counts if you donate within the 24h window. Sorry I'm only seeing this now when there's 33 minutes left :P Like @Drakodan said though, exercise responsibility and only donate if you actually have it to spare.

You guys can feel free to message me on Discord (through the speedrun.com Discord, link on the navbar under "More") if you have any questions like this.
