    There have been quite a few negative threads lately, including some rickroll hate, which makes baby dk cry. So to spread the holiday cheer, I will donate on behalf of two members who currently haven't donated yet, no matter what your excuse is. Too young, too poor, too lazy, too cheap, slow post office, whatever. These will be full fledged donations, complete with blue name, custom title, custom avatar, and access to the exquisite donator's only lounge.

    All you have to do is convince me that you are one of the two most deserving posters that haven't donated yet. The judging will be completely subjective, anything goes either in this thread or pm. Making me laugh will be a good start, but it's your call.

    If there are a lot of entries, I may bump it to three or four, why not. Its Christmas. Be happy.

    Contest starts now.
    I am not a very convincing person, but bottom line... I am the dirtiest of anybody here on the site. I'd like to get my name clean, and I've wanted to donate ever since I registered on here. Yes, I have excuses, and no, they aren't good... but they are excuses nonetheless, and I can't see why somebody else is more deserving of the money than myself. However, the same can be said the other way. I just don't think a rhetoric essay is in order for one to be convinced to be charitable to them; however, your generosity is limited to one figure, and in the spirit of Christmas, I would do the best I can to return the favor back to you with a full reimbursement.

    I know you're doing this without expecting $40+ back in your pocket, but I'm the kind of person that takes people places here at school without asking for a cent of gas change in return; in that regard, I would feel guilty just taking money from somebody else. However, it is your call after all, and you hold power over everybody else in this thread (except for donators and moderators, who are donators as well).

    This is one of those opportunities where you should take it when it is offered. There's no reason anybody should ignore it, and I am no exception. If I don't get it, oh well... no loss. If I do get it, my slate is wiped clean, and I'll finally feel like I'm part of the site like I've always wanted to be.

    I believe an advanced "Thank you" is in order for any potential gratitude that may come my way in light of your appreciation toward this message board and others that accommodate it. That said, you're doing a great thing. Merry Christmas.

            The C could easily win this if he really wanted to.

                          Well The C hasn't even posted in here, and Soldier isn't getting it.

                          Keep in mind that nominations carry the same amount of weight as the poster's favorite color. I'll let you decide how much that is.

                                That's a lot of pressure on C.
