Basil,

this is probably more trouble then it's worth, may have some legal ramifications as well.

Any game is more fun when there is a prize on the line, (Thanks to British Parts NW, by the way)

I am curious what kind of interest there would be if there was a special VR, where there was a $2 to $5 entry? Then half or more can go to the running of BCF, and there can be some of the entry used for a prize.

There were 72 people who played this time. Even if it was 50 people at $2 each that would make 100 for prize and 100 for the site.

If it was $5 each, it could be either 250/250, or I would even suggest keep the prize at $100 and have $400 go to the BCF.


I mean, at $5 each, that's 250, 100 for the winner and 150 for BCF \:\)
May be more trouble then it's worth, but if it helps to keep this great site going, then I am all for it!

Rob

D'oh!

that was so far off, I forfeit the right to completely remove it from my post.

It will stay there so future generations will know that my rally victory was luck, and not math! \:\)

May also be legal ramifications (gambeling). However, if those who play the rally wanted to voluntarity donate $5 or $10 to the forum, I guess I can't stop them Of course there would be no penalty for plaing but not donating and all donations would remain anonymous.
