    If it's a matter of your credit card having a US address in order to enter, simply call your credit card provider and tell them to change your billing address to one you can provide in the States (tell them you're moving there for a temporary posting and don't want your online purchases to be rejected). That's how I was able to purchase the VIP meet-and-greet tickets from Jon Tester's campaign for the '12 Missoula show. A couple of weeks after the tickets were ordered I phoned the credit card provider and had the address changed back. Simple.
    To quote the 10C from Newsletter #8: "Please understand we have a lot of members and it is very hard to please everybody. If you are one of those unhappy people...please call 1-900-IDN-TCAR."

    This is really cool - good luck everyone!
    I really wish I could try for it, but this is really short notice, so I can't take those particular days off work with such short notice even if I won. Seems like this was largely designed for people pretty much in the Seattle area considering how close to the show the winner is notified. Oh well.
    EDIT: just read this isn't even really open to Canadians anyway. Why?? I am only a 4 hour drive from Seattle (plus the border wait).

    Good luck to everyone who donates as part of this raffle.

    Thankyou also 10C for 'listening' and passing on ideas discussed by members in the various threads here - I have seen this idea for a low cost raffle (rather than always auctions) quite a few times. Thanks for making tickets for a rare experience like this available to the membership in this way :x >:D<

    Thankyou Ed for using you life to support and inspire others in so many ways.

    So, is this actually valid to allow a Canadian to potentially win the contest, and not just enter the contest? As much as I like to donate to a good cause, I'd be crushed if I managed to enter with a credit card with an American address, won the draw, and then was told I didn't qualify.

    Edit - just answered my own question by reading the fine print. No, Canadians can't enter, US credit card or not. Only residents of the US are eligible.

    Congratulations to you and your lucky +1!

    (as an aside, being sincerely happy for a complete stranger feels fucking awesome)

    I thought the contest is open until Monday and the winner won't be notified until Tuesday?
