I got the donation and sent it to Anolias. Can anyone post how much they donated so I can make a goal thermometer? :D

So far I got $5 from Dualcats.

I wish I could donate more but I'm really low on money right now. :< I'll try to sell plasma. Or play music in the subway.

I recently got an internship (missed my first day due to mis-communication >_>)

So when I get my paycheck I should be giving a little money to Armada :)

After I get gas and food for this week I'll donate whats left of my money. On a side note I would also like to donate to pp to make sure he can get to genesis 2.

Damn Paypal Eating fees. Made the transaction 98. Whatever. <_>

14.44 + 98 = 112.44 currently sent to Armada. GOOD STUFF EVERYONE.
Please, for accurate Paypal donations, pay the fee yourself. Thanks.

Bolt, make sure you leave a note if you donate stating it's PP's funds.

THANK YOU SNAP.

Yea, don't send your money to PP to me. :D

I'd rather this fund only pertain to smashers OCONUS. (in other words Outside the Continental United States) Alaska and Hawaii are part of the international fund.

I feel as though other players have this exact problem.

why should armada be treated differently than others? shouldn't we start a "let's help everyone who didn't get paid" fund?

it sucks, I know, but are people really willing to give more to armada when, even if he takes 1st at genesis, he may not be ablse to pay off his debts to all the players that give to him now and gave to him before pound?
^didn't read much after this post.

Well tbh I have enough money to make it to genesis 2 atm I think, but there are other things in the way. I'm just crossing my fingers that money won't be an issue by then lol.

Like I said in Voodoo's thread if you or anyone want to make a fund then I'm okay with that but others like M2K or Hbox probably deserve it more than me.



Also I hope everything works out for Armada and every single person who was guaranteed money at Pound 5.

i am, you have no idea who i am, so claiming that i should be more open to things doesn't bother me. you've only seen me post in your nc thread and this one, you cannot draw consistency from two points.

Dude, if you don't wanna help, just go. It aint worth being here if you are here to not really contribute. Are you going to?

and both those post you have come off as if your "Above" things or the current subject matter.

Why?

It's a nice gesture, but it isn't fair to everyone else that has been SOL over the years for money that wasn't paid.
That's like saying 'it's not fair to donate to one charity' because you can't donate to all of them. In short: 'wat.'

I say to the people that say "Others dont get paid/charities." If you think they should get donations then why don't you be a bro like Snap and make a thread.

I seriously don't have much on me right now, but... I love Armada to death. $5 is all I can give right now but at least it's something lol. I hope everything turns out well for you, Armada. You're the most amazing smasher I have ever seen, and one of the most awesome people in this community.

Axe is amazing for donating, because he was also supposed to receive money from Pound5

ahhhh So much logic... I love it. Thank you for this. My only regret is that I hadn't thought of that sooner. And Axe, you're awesome.
Exactly. But giving to charity is counterproductive, where giving to these fundraisers is actually helping people.

Really, charity = LOL

You guys are awesome! It is people like you who make me love the smash community so much.
I saw a couple of guys that are not awesome here, though, and to you I got something to say:
Do you have any ****ing idea how much it costs for us Scandinavians to travel to the USA? And in addition to that Armada got 1st(teams) and 2nd(singles) which he didn't get paid for. He obviously lost way more money on Pound 5 than any of you other guys did, though I feel your pain; this hasn't been fair to anyone. I'm not gonna flame Plank. I'm pretty sure he meant well, but what he did was wrong. It was gambling with other people's money, who required everything to turn out as planned, which it didn't(and things usually never does).

I'll see if I can spit in some money for this fund, just need to get my PayPal working, lol.

Armada, I love you. What Plank did was a travesty and you deserve better than that. I will definitely donate money to you!! Your Peach is the biggest inspiration for mine and I couldn't thank you enough for all the hard work you have put into this game. <3
