Next GBAtemp backer raffle coming up soon

patron_raffle.png

[You have until March 31st at midnight to become a Patron to enter the next raffle] If you want a chance to win one of the cool prizes we regularly offer (previous raffle here) make sure to support us on Patreon by submitting your pledge before the end of the month. The next raffle will take place in the early days of April. All members who have a valid pledge submitted before April 1st will be eligible to enter.

So what will be up for grabs this this time? As always it depends on the amount of support we receive from you.

And what perks will you be getting if you decide to support us?

Benefits for you
If you decide to back us, you will also get lots of benefits on a personal level:

1) The most important of all: you will get the warm and fuzzy feeling that comes with supporting your favorite online community <3 (all backers!)

2) You will be allowed to enter the quarterly raffle and therefore get a chance to win one of the prizes ($2+ backers)

3) You will be part of a special member group that will have a right to vote in the GBAtemp Bounty ($2+ backers)

4) Your GBAtemp account will go completely ad-free: no more ads, neither on the desktop version nor on the mobile version! ($5+ backers)

5) You will be allowed to use the newest forum themes in their beta versions before they go public, you'll be able to voice your suggestions, the same will also go for all future new styles and design improvements! ($10+ backers)

Stay tuned !

I never win anything in life but its always worth the excitement of these raffles to be a patron and support our awesome gbatemp community. If you love this website, I recommend supporting whenever possible if even only a couple bucks ❤

temp admin are very generous, I mean, 2$ for a chance of winning a switch?
on the other hand, there are lottery costing 2$ and give you a chance of winning millions
but here, on gbatemp, chances of winning the jack pot are much much higher

I'm hoping jt's another one of those mini raspberry pi consoles again.
Oh my gosh, nearly forgot to pledge, so thanks to everyone for spreading this thread! :-)

@Giodude Good idea btw, I would fancy that. Am thinking a lot of buying one anyway as the 3 Model B+ has recently been out.

I'll be pledging in April. Being a new member, I'd rather not partake in the raffle.....give some of the seasoned members better odds.

Is it OK to have the same url / patreon username as the GBAtemp one? So in my case, it's hurrz. :-)

He's referring to people who are new Patrons, not people who are already Patrons. He essentially has to add each user manually when someone donates, which can't be done if their Patreon info isn't related in any way to their GBATemp info and they don't submit their username.

I think I changed my name afterwards because I saw that my real name was made public.

So click https://www.patreon.com/hurrz to get to my profile :-)

Edit: WTF, I just clicked it myself and it says I don't pledge. [emoji50]
I'd get in touch with Patreon directly if I were you.

  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    i thought everybody knew cocktails are like 75% ice
  • Veho @ Veho:
    Yeah but not like this.
  • Veho @ Veho:
    It's not like they're complaining that their Slurpee is 99% ice or something, but if the cocktail calls for "shot of vodka, shot of vermouth, shot of gin, shot of Campari, three shots of juice, squirt of lemon" and ends up being a thimbleful of booze, that's a problem.
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    the funny thing is cocktails in norway are only allowed to have 1 20ml shot of booze
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    so..... yeah
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    we're used to only having a thimbleful of booze
  • Veho @ Veho:
    Booo.
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    same thing if you want whisky on the rocks or something, you can't get a double
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    but you could buy as many shots of whisky (or anything else) as you want and ask for a glass of ice and pour them in
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    it's dumb
  • Veho @ Veho:
    Maybe.
  • Veho @ Veho:
    There was a comparison of the number of Ibuprofen poisonings before and after they limited the maximum dosage per box or per pill (i'll look that up). No limit on the number of boxes you can still buy as many as you want, so people argued it was pointless.
  • Veho @ Veho:
    But the number of (accidental) poisonings dropped because drinking an entire package of ibuprofen pills went from "I need a new liver" to "I need a new box of Ibuprofen".
  • Veho @ Veho:
    Here we have ketoprofen that used to be prescription-only because of the risk of toxic dosages, but then they halved the dose per pill and sell them in bottles of six pills apiece instead of twenty and it doesn't need a prescription any more. Yes you can buy more than one bottle but people simply don't.
  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    Usually accidentally overdose of ibuprofen here is from people taking like cold medicine then ibuprofen for a headache and the combination is over what they need
