Me too!

Love the raffles . . . and I'm totally excited about this one!

Mutisia said:@joannaka, thank you so much, but I'm far down in South America, so I do not qualify as participant in these great raffles but still enjoy the excitement!

Ursula, I don't qualify either but I bought tickets anyway with the acorns given to me. So join in on the fun and excitement of the NARR. If you win you could give your prize to a friend in the U.S.

Rainbow said:Since I live outside of the Continental U.S. live plants and seeds prizes will not be available to me so had not participated in NARR since joining. However, when I was given acorns in this thread I decided to go ahead and buy tickets with the acorns. If I should win, I will do a raffle drawing of my own for those I received acorns from, and the winner will receive the prize.

Much to my surprise and delight, I was given 3 tips totaling 11 acorns for the above post. Thank you guys! I'm going to buy more tickets.

@Rainbow - Kadie, I still have acorns (earned posting Chilean native flora in the Plant Data Base) and I have given some to new members - maybe they get quicker involved/compromised with NGA. This reminds me I should post more pictures

I still have earned acorns also from contributing to the Plant Data Base.
So...I will gift 5 acorns to the next person that is a new member who has not already received acorns from this thread.

I haven't!

Welcome to NGA, Rebekah! And a belated Happy Birthday to you!

You get the acorns. My pleasure!

Thank you so much for sharing b-day wishes and acorns Rainbow!!!!!

Thank you Ursula!!!!

You're very welcome, Rebekah! I note in your profile that you have been making contributions to the Plant Data Base...wonderful! Here's 5 more acorns to buy yourself a microbadge for your public profile.

Got one! again thank you!!!

Your rose microbadge looks great on you, Rebekah!

Rebekah said:Got one! again thank you!!!

Here's 5 more acorns for another badge or NARR ticket! Thank you for all of your contributions!

And can I say how much appreciated you are, too, James???

Thanks, Barbalee!

Still wanting to give away 25 acorns to the 5 individuals that respond to this post that have not received any during this post!

To get the attention of more people you may want to post an invitation on the Welcome and Help Forum.

Great idea!

Thank you James!!! I promptly purchased another ticket

Yep. It never occurred to me to look here b/c I didn't realize all of y'all generous people were giving away acorns. Anyway, good on you for doing this.

I did just respond to one I saw on the Welcome and Help Forum. And I wondered what was up.

Somewhere in some thread in some forum at sometime, all not remembered by me, I did make the comment that the only raffle I've ever won was for 500 S&H Green Stamps from the Piggly Wiggly. And I think my mom must have forged entered my name.
