He's going to (hopefully) scan a French game manual for us, too.

Amazing raffle! Please sign me up, Bernie. Thanks!

[reno5]

Great raffle Bernie. I don't qualify but kudos for this !

[OldRover]

Dude, sign me up please. I would feel bad if I won though, considering how much you've helped me out in recent times. You're more than generous.

He's also been to a bunch of the Turbofests.  He may not have a high post count here, but he's good people.

[Dicer]

Kudos on an awesome raffle, good luck to all you old timers...

[OldRover]

Hah, this even brought ElSeven out of the woodwork...

[esteban]

DAMN.

[BigusSchmuck]

Oh wow, that's a very nice raffle. Sign me up! I'll be sure to keep it away from non Bernie goods in fear of the curse.

[Flare65]

Add me.  I've always wanted one of these.  I also found my first grey hair in the mirror this week.  Does that count as senior?

[NightWolve]

WOAH, awesome raffle, Bernie!!!!!!!!! Sign me up! All that time went by and I thought I would've had one by now, but here comes a raffle for it! :-) Yaaay!

[LostFlunky]

Nice one Bernie! Thanks for doing this.

[geise]

Holy hell!  Nice raffle Bernie.  Please sign me up!

[Psycho Punch]

I'm one of the top posters of DoxPhile do I count?

Nice raffle and good luck to all qualified entrants. Very generous of your part bernie.

[spenoza]

I would like to be included. My GameOfYou flashcard is on the fritz again (third time) likely due to solder joint or part failure (and not due to abuse - it spends almost all its time completely motionless), and I'm not sure I can convince GameOfYou to keep fixing this thing. Seems I got a lemon... It would be nice to have an EverDrive to replace it.

[johnnykonami]

This is a nice raffle, really generous of you!  Just wanted to say that, obviously I don't meet the requisites.

[synbiosfan]

...loaded up with every game, divided by region and hacks/translations.

I got a sneak peek at the contents and it's awesome!

[CGQuarterly]

Damn, Bernie.  MAJOR props to you for this one.  Don't include me though, I'm all set already.

[Vecanti]

Awesome Bernie. Would love to win this for the kids. Add me if I qualify. 

Think I will throw together a couple raffles here in a bit in the spirit of this amazing-ness!

[FiftyQuid]

Dangggggggg!  Nice raffle!  I'll give this a try.  Sign me up!  Thank you for such a great raffle!

[GohanX]

Wow, this is one of the best raffles ever! Don't enter me,I just got one but I might pm you for your files.

[NightWolve]

I would feel bad if I won though, considering how much you've helped me out in recent times. You're more than generous.

Yeah, I kinda feel the same actually. How I met Bernie was back in 2008 after he donated $30 and needed tech support on using TurboRip to produce a Dracula X image to work on a Sony PSP. So there's that, then winning a raffle of his for one of the Ziria games, plus also recently giving me 2 days work for something he needed done, took a few hours per day, and paying me for that. So yeah, more than generous. This is hands down the best raffle to come around, but I'm curious as to why he's already willing to give up his TE though... Can't have gotten that much use given how new a product it is.

I have more than 1 sir.

How/why did you wind up with more than one, some trade or ??

Well, here's my in-thread thanks, a MP3 dedication to you: ;-)

Yeah, but you're a six year n00b as far as most people are concerned since you have less than 100 posts. You should try to justify your raffle entry worthiness by mentioning meaningful contributions you have made to this forum.

Your low post count may disqualify you.  I have been here for nearly 5 years and I remember you only vaguely.

[NightWolve]

Doing what for 6 years ?? Not much, that's the point. Your "tg16mania" isn't all that evident and watching/lurking is not much of a contribution as others pointed out... Moreover, it looks tacky to suddenly get active for a raffle, one of the best at that, then try to somehow define seniority just by how long your account's been registered, basically hoping that lets you weasal in...

Let's say you were allowed in and you won, you walk away with it, go back to your lurking, well, doesn't that defeat the spirit of the purpose of raffles which is to reward active, long-time/frequent contributors to the forum ?? That wouldn't be fair to the people that keep this place active, interesting, above all, alive... Those that provide services, add content to the forum on a frequent basis, you get the idea... I don't think your post frequency is about to change any time soon and it shouldn't just be because of raffles either. Anyway, that's my 2 cents, and I don't mean to be rude, but you clearly don't meet any seniority standard as ambiguous as that might be.

[synbiosfan]

Oops, your post count made me think you had just joined

Sorry, thought I was looking out for a fellow noob

[esadajr]

  this must be like the raffle of the century +1 turbob karma to Bern.

Whoever wins it will certainly have a blast. Takes some discipline not to develop emulator syndrome

Hahjajahahjajajaja. I was wondering if anyone was going to tell him how absurd he was.

 

[tg16manaic]

ok guys, i will kindly bow out of this one. But just for the record i am a long time member here. I'm not a lurker nor was i ever a lurker here. I've been steadily posting (at a slow pace i guess) for the whole time i've been here. I've never been away, i just don't post unless i have something important to contribute. I've dealt with many people here, hopefully some remember me and can vouch for me. Just because i don't make a lot of posts, doesn't mean i'm not a long time member here. I probably post on average a message every couple weeks, and it's been steady like that for years. I read this forum almost every day, and i chime in whenever i can, sometimes its just hard to contribute something unless i feel i have something valid to say. I don't make rambling posts lol except perhaps for this one. Anyways guys, good luck with this, and i still wanna say thanks to Bernie for this great raffle.

[synbiosfan]

I'm a relative noob with diarrhea of the mouth so i guess we're at opposite ends of the spectrum. 

Other than myself being a total noob, I also produce so much diarrhea Depends will not cover any warranties for me










 

[Bernie]

Lol.  Y'all play nice in my waffle thwead! 

[FiftyQuid]

Close this up already and make the draw! 

[spenoza]

Wait, there's a WAFFLE on the line, too? I LOVE waffles! Can I get two entries? One for the Everdrive and one for a waffle?

<tangent> Actually, if you are ever in Cincinnati, OH, check out Taste of Belgium downtown. They have really fantastic waffles (and a good beer list, too, if you like Belgian beers). </tangent>

[seieienbu]

...man, I hope I've been here long enough for waffles.  Like pancakes only crispy and with syrup pockets; waffles are truly a breakfast delight.

I'm still mad at you for not buying TV Sports Baseball.   I'm a relative noob with diarrhea of the mouth so i guess we're at opposite ends of the spectrum.  Next raffle I do will have a dual qualification: must have under 20 posts a year for no less than 5 years, or must have over 700 posts a year for no more than 2 years. Both of our archetypes will be represented.

lol i guess we are at completely opposite ends of the spectrum. Its amazing how many posts u have in 2 years, compared to the amount i have in 6. But like i said, it's not like i went away or stopped posting, i've been here steady even though my post count might not reflect that. If u look through my posts they're pretty evenly spaced throughout the years lol.  And i don't think i've ever gone more than a week or two without logging in, and i've completed many successful trades and sales on here too. I guess i just don't post a lot. I guess i have diarrhea of the brain, most of the time i really don't know what to say lol.

About TV Sports Baseball, i wish i would have bought it, but how was i to know? I was a 15yo punk kid at the time, i spent 24.99 on Air Zonk instead, seemed like a better idea at the time since TV Sports Baseball was 79.99.  In that thread a while back, we were discussing that someone saw a machine at a video game show that was playing tv sports baseball, so we know at least a prototype exists. Also, i remember a while back there was a thread on here discussing a game lot that had a prototype of tv sports baseball
in it, that had a white cover with writing on it, in that same penmanship as those duo cd prototypes. So it's quite possible the game rom itself was completed, but who knows if it was ever sold. Maybe it was pulled off the shelves. I do remember there being a retail box, unless it was just a display box, who knows.

And getting back to the subject of the tread: I was thinking, since only 1 person will win this, and since i was disqualified for my abnormally low post-per-year count, the rest of us should do a group buy.

Bernie never posted about your post count, he just mentioned to play nice and....MMMMmmm waflles

As far as a group buy, threads pop up or you could start a new one for an interest check. 10 people/orders is what you need for the discount.

[esteban]

Close this up already and make the draw! 

Bernie should open this up to senior members, that is, folks who joined 6+ years ago.

Thank you.

[Bernie]

Close this up already and make the draw! 

Will be closed tonight at midnight and draw will be Wednesday or Thursday.
