I'll give $50, but I'm last money in, so I only pledge if we hit the full $500

C'mon and join me!

Hi everyone.
Oh well. Five minutes before the deadline and we're still at 300 dollars. Where did I go wrong?
Either I overestimated how much maaser money you guys have to give, or I overestimated my influence on the forum.

This has been a humbling experience.

Please believe me when I say that my motivation was purely to help raise money for GYE, and to help motivate me to complete the 90 days.

I'll still try to do it (blee neder) with the 300 dollar sponsorship.


WAIT, hold the press!!!
Breaking news: Trying just pledged 100 dollars! That's 400 dollars!

Thanks so much Trying. But, unfortunately, it's not 500, so I can't do what I planned on doing on the forum that's never been done before.

Maybe in the future I'll have an opportunity to do it.

can you tell us what it was that you were planning on doing?

programming, or pr, or  somehting even cooler?

Nope. sorry. That'll ruin the surprise.

no fair...

Who said life was fair?

Sorry Habib.

OK, here's a hint: I was going to put some very interesting posts up, but the kind never done before.

Enough of that.

I finished 16 clean days. Today is day 17. I remember my 17th year, it was a good one! I was a senior in high-school. I was on top of the world and oh so young and innocent.... 

17!
17 is awesome super-dooper crazy!
wow, momo, i'm so happy for you!

are you still living?

I was just filling my joke-for-the-day quota.

Ah, yeh, I'm still living happily, B"H.

You?

Hi Momo,

I'm not sure if I understand how this works, (also last money in, means that if you get $450, I would give the last money i.e. the last $50 bucks to complete the deal.) Does the money only get donated when you hit 90, or is it a general donation and you try to hit 90?

If it is the former, meaning that we make the pledges now and if you hit $90 that's when we pay them, then I'll pledge the last $100. I know how hard it is to hit 90, and I would be happy to be able to motivate another yid to reach that, especially someone who spends a lot of time trying to motivate others!!!

Hatzlacha,
Haba

Hey! I didn even no about this 500 incentive!!!
NO FAIR  >
Maybe I wuda donated more..MOMO u gotta give it time! If TrYiNg, who is a forum addict didn't know, most ppl didn either.
You gotta wait a bit

it is Haba!! We do the pledge now and when  MOMO reaches 90 we'll be overjoyed an donate then..CANT WAIT 

Here's how it works.
If you pledge 100 dollars, then:
If I hit 30 days you donate 10 bucks.
If I hit 50 days, you donate another 25 bucks.
If I hit 90 days, you donate another 65 bucks.

Total: 100 bucks.

You can give one donation either at the end of if I fall, C"V, so you don't have to send a check for 10 bucks.

So, what's the verdict??

First, Trying your 100 pledge is more than enough.

OK, OK, I'll be nice and fair. I forgot that not everybody is a forum addict like us.

Here goes again: If I get 500 dollars sponsorship by the deadline, which I think is Sunday morning, the start of my 20th day, then I'll do the surprise posting thing. OK? Fair?

So far I have 400 dollars plus a confused Habaletaher.
