Pretty awesome.

Wish I knew who donated the module. Whoever it is, they're a class act.

The guy who donated it is named Ryan and is in Belfast, Ireland. Dont know if that narrows it down enough for someone to determine if Ryan is an Acaeum member or not.

On a side note, I donated to the fund several months ago. By doing so I got a password from him to download a few items he put together back in the late 70's/early 80's. I think his Grimoire fanzine is pretty cool.

The website says that the donor found more than one of this module..!

I respect the initative, just thinking he could probably sell those items for pretty close to the $3000 goal.

I draw the line at collecting... D&D beach towels.

Maybe. But if you look at how they're staggering the drawings, you might end up with some nice odds of winning something good. That could increase interest and help push the total higher. Pretty smart, and I hope it works... after I win something cool.

Is this raffle still ongoing? Looks like it was supposed to end last year, then earlier this year. Does anyone know the outcome of this or if it is still "in the works"? I would be happy to donate either way, but uncertain as to the current status.

Thank you - Paul

No....the raffles have been over for quite some time:

But you can still donate and when you do you get access to some really cool stuff Randall has written over the years including his Grimoire Fanzine issues #1 and 2 that he wrote back in '78 and '79.

He does raffles from time to time. It looks the last one was in the summer. It's a decent blog to check out once in a while.

Looks like there is a quick fund drive as a prequel to the next raffle: http://blog.retroroleplaying.com/2012/1 ... house.html
