This thing is YUUUGE!!!

6" x 2.5" x ~ 0.09375" thick (3/32" with a 1/32" marked rule) and it's coming up SPOT-ON for density. It passes the Scratch Test (no copper visible LOL) and the magnet test (non-magnetic) plus I bought it at a totally reputable shop. Don't worry about my scratch test, it's on the edge and not really visible unless you look right at it, with magnification :D

The reason I am floating this idea out there is that I want to raise funds for my minnowbootcamp community bot, and I'd love to get Spot Price for this bad-boy... Covering international Shipping to the UK would be nice also, cuz that dang @owenwat is due to win again LMAO!!! So at $16.50 ozT I'd love to get $150 U$D raised for this piece, but in SBD of course. Steem and SBD is right around $3.50 so that equates to 43 SBD rounded off. Call it a nice even 40 SBD Target. Anything over is GRAVY... Biscuits and Gravy :D

I need input, from playas and raffle-runners. FIAT is about non-existent right now for me and I need to keep what I have for bills until I get back to the old Salt Mines this month... I'm not only considering the DARK Method, @darmmrmystic, but offering a bonus for referrals like "I saw this on @raybrockman 's re-post so I came over" with that the Fun Never Ends! I just don't get the exposure some of the SSG members get, I'm too busy with my Boot Camp Duties to have the high profile in SSG plus I belong to #thealliance as well.

Last Item, I need ideas on a buy-in price. I want it to be higher as I know 8 ozt in one chunk is a killer prize, but not too high to keep smaller stackers from playing. I'm thinking 2 SBD and up... 20 playas @ 2 gets it there to my minimum. Thoughts? 15 Playas @ 3 sbd is better, with these high-rollers we got ;) I also wanna know if we should cap this, unlike the last raffle.

HELP!!! @raybrockman @phelimint @thedamus @owenwat @jbcoin @pit-bullion @silverstackeruk @welshstacker @goldenarms @darkmrmystic @meilo1995 @dixiesilverminer @armshippie @kp138 @clumsysilverdad @russellbury @coldsteem59 @janusface @cryptohustlin @maxbullion @everybody (lol)

I know I want in if this thing goes up.

resteem-the crap out of it, no one is looking!
I know it will go good if #SSG is AWARE of It!
It's almost too sweet to take the chance and if it does not hit a certain amount... :'(

I bet this contest will attract more entries than a van full of mapple syrup attracts flies!

That thing has "IM RICH" written all over it.

yes it DO!

But it kinda disappears in the "rest of the stack"
iykwim ;)

That's GAWJUSS Undie. Who wouldn't wanna own that beaut?

Do you have to be a SSG member to play?

Resteeming this. I'm not sure about all that you said as I dont know this stuff, but I am happy to help out a friend and resteeming it ^_^

^_^



Thanks Foxy!
You are eligible to play and win if you want in... Open to ALL

O.o

lol

Lol, thanks for the shout out @undeRGRound. I didn't know i had a method 😂 it's all just madness to me.

You could stipulate that all spots must be filled by payout or funds are returned. I like 30 spots at 1.5 SBD.

Once all 30 spots are filled and extra SBD sent could get more spots opened up. And after the first 30 all 100% upvotes on said raffle post could count towards a bonus entry...

Just food for thought.

See?

METHOD.... ;)



You also did "update posts" which directed more traffic to the contest :D
Sir Spam A lot but it is effective :P
I'm taking notes LOL

Lol 😂😂😂

does it have the same design on both sides of the bar? and does it have any info about metal purity and weight on there anywhere? or does it just weigh a perfect 248.8g
