Raffle - Pro-painted Sarcos team

The BABBL - Brisbane Area Bloodbowl League, is a long running Bloodbowl league based in Brisbane, Australia. We've been running for >5 years and are about to start our 10th season.

Periodically the BABBL hold a raffle of a pro-painted Bloodbowl team to raise funds for the league. This pays for the leagues running costs like the website, etc, and keeps the league 100% free to play!

Season 10 is about ready to kick off, and we're planning for it to be the best yet. We have gotten our hands on a brilliant Sarcos team courtesy of Impact Miniatures. Our very own Painting Machine, Devilsreject has applied his excellent painting skills to this team as can be seen in the attached picture below.
(As an aside Devilsreject has in the past and (I believe) still takes on the occasional commission job, so the team is by all measures 'pro-painted')

This is a fairly strightforward raffle with rules as follows:

Tickets in the raffle are $5AUD each, or 3 tickets for $10AUD.

The prize is the pro-painted Sarcos team pictured above, including an Impact carrying case (not pictured).
Please note - postage costs are the responsibility of the raffle winner.

Tickets are available to all who would like to buy them, given the fact we're posting on TFF we're happy to extend the offer of tickets to the wider international BB Community.

All funds raised go to supporting the BABBL (eg, website costs, etc) in order to keep the league free to play.

Raffle tickets will be assigned on a first come, first served basis. (Yes, that means no picking your favourite number)

The draw will take place at a BABBL league night, at our inaugural "Northern Wastes Challenge" special round, which should be the 9th August 2011. As per previous raffles we will take photos and update the thread once the draw has been done and ocntact the lucky winner.

If you would like to buy a ticket(s), payment can be made via paypal. If you let me know either in this thread or via PM how many tickets you would like, I'll let you know the paypal details (and send you an invoice if you want one).

Thanks everyone.

It's a cracking team with a lovely paint job, the downside is 5-10 bucks could get you a team but for most will get you nothing at all :)

I'm not knocking the idea at all, I think it's a great way to raise funds for that league and I'm very tempted myself.

toss in your tenner. I dropped a 20spot. If you do not play you have 0% chance of winning. Besides it is for a good cause.

I just bought my elfball board, and I'm bloody annoyed that I can't win this team for that!

The League schedule is being drafted this morning. So I expect that the draw will be in roughly 5 weeks

Just a little bump.

The raffle will be drawn on the 9th of August, so if you want in on the chance to win this bad boy team, you've got three weeks left.

And a public thanks to the TFF guys who have bought tickets thus far. Really appreciate that you're willing to support a league half a world away. (Even if that support involves a chance to win a great team :orc: )

The BABBL played our inaugural special match, Northern Wastes Challenge, and drew the raffle tonight.

Congrats to Cabletrax, one of our BABBL coaches, so yes a local won the raffle, but it was all above board!! :D
