There are a number of auctions being done to benefit Doug Rhea and help out with his uncovered expenses relating to his stage 4 cancer diagnosis.

Some of those are probably of interest to collectors.  Some probably will not be.

I just thought I would note them here for anyone who had missed the news.

I realize that the auctions are buried in another thread, but ... just did not want anyone to miss them.

For those not on Facebook, or if you are not interested in the items I'm auctioning, Doug now has a GoFundMe:

Mike thanks for putting up the GoFundme page.  I personally challenge anyone on these forums who has not contributed to do so.  Thanks.

I actually cannot take credit for it....Doug did NOT want a page, he would have rather sold something to come up with the money, but one of his friends on the Shroud of the Avatar site convinced him to put up his accounts and give those who contributed to the GoFundMe a chance to win them. Brilliant idea really. But all the money goes to Doug.  I am also running weekly auctions on the North Texas RPG con Facebook page, and there is still the Squeaky Cage Ticket page.

Nevermind, I'm an idiot. Best of luck to Doug. I wish him the best.

Hiya Martin.  It's been awhile for me, obviously.

Seems much quieter around here these days.  What's new and exciting?

I've donated several of my GOH t-shirts in pristine condition to the auction.  One sold (though I had to toss in a cheesecake to go with it).  Bad Mike has some others he will eventually let go of, along with some dice and candy and other things I've sent.

I also have another box to mail over to them.  But the auctions continue along rather well.

Thanx for the holler BClarkie, good to see you about the forums. I was actually thinking about you today on my way home today, wondering where you were.

You need to drag your butt out to Texas one June for some fun at the Con, I'll put you up in the hotel and save you a few bucks.

Auctions will continue next week! I got a lot of NTRPG con stuff signed at Garycon, along with some other goodies. Had to take a break until the return from Garycon and catching up on sales. We've already raised about $4000! Probably at least two more weeks of auctions until we hang it up for NTRPG con prep. Thanks Everyone!
