True enough. But I create the rules (at least in part) specifically to ensure fairness. If I don't get that right, it is a failure on my part. No excuses.

If nothing else, though, I can learn from this mistake. Should make the other upcoming giveaways of this type run more smoothly.
 
Double Barrel,

Congrats on the EDC!

You said: "I initially thought it was a bird. The more I look at the pics, I'm starting to think it's something else."

Well, it's definitely an UFO. - Think about it... If You can't identify it, and We can't either, then it remains Unidentified... and, since it is a Flying Object, it Is an "Unidentified Flying Object".

Nice! :-)

Have a Great Night!

-Chuck

Guys, I apologize. Usually I do a better job than this (at least I hope so). Obviously I hurried this one too much, and didn't do the proper checking. Won't happen again.

A guy who creates and runs a thread that "gives" items away (mostly out of his pocket) apologizes when he has a hiccup?
No apology needed Sir. :bow:
 
Doc, you are indeed exceedingly kind and fair to all of us. Kudos to you, sir!

And generous! Both with your personal giveaways, and with your time. It must be no small effort to continue to do this, especially when you are also running draws here on behalf of dealers and manufacturers. Thanks for all your effort and goodies - and thanks as well to everyone else who has donated in this thread. What a load of fun this is!

The first two parts are domestic only? (unclear to me, sorry).

I didn't specify which light is available for international shipping...just that I would only ship one outside the country. If someone outside the USA gets first pick, as in this case, he or she can choose among all three. The next two people will need domestic addresses, and pick from the remaining two lights.

If you have a better suggestion for how to phrase it, feel free to PM me or post here again.

scwood, mina, gunga, your names came up! (recDNA's entry was not valid, since he provided no content...no pic, story, video, etc., which is why scwood was included in the drawing.)

Double Barrel and nofearek9 are alternates, if anyone fails to respond in a timely fashion.

scwood, you have first pick. Let me know which one you want! Might as well just post your preference here, and then PM with shipping details.

Edit: well, crap. I screwed that up...scwood did not provide any content either. Let's just move it down one slot...mina, you have the first pick, then gunga, then Double Barrel. nofearek9 is still the alternate, should anyone not respond in a timely manner.

I thought this was content ( i could use a edc light for my cousin)I will be more specific next time! this forum want let me attach my pics!
 
Oh AWESOME! Can I choose this one?

L3 Illumination L10 AA, with a cool white XP-G2 emitter

Doc, I will PM details. I sold all my L3's and regretted it.


 
Thanks so much Doc!

Okay folks, I'll be contributing some modding supplies soon, there I said it, now I have to go through with it!

So, I ask that other people contribute too! Doc can't provide for all giveaways!
 
Got my titanium Doc, did you mean to include the eneloop? Very nice light, we need to figure what we can get you. Do you have the CPF 15th Anniversary light? You must answer. :p


edit: lol the inside of the tin smells like Bengay.

Yes, I (virtually) always include a battery/cell. If anyone has received a light from me without, it is only because I forgot to include one. (Don't think it has happened, but I can't be one hundred percent sure.)

I do not have the CPF 15th anniversary light, nor do I want it...but thanks for the thought!

That smell is Frog Lube...I mostly use Nyogel, but I picked up a tube of Frog Lube for cheap recently. Have been trying it out on lots of different lights. I like the smell, and supposedly it is non-toxic...but I did make a mess the first few times I used it. It is MUCH less viscous than the Nyogel grease I had been using.

Strike 1 for me, what do you like/want..........work with me here. I know you did not start this generous thread to get things in return and I respect that, but I know where you live. :p

Several hundred people have read this thread, at the absolute minimum. It has almost 100,000 views, and although I might be half of those ;), the remainder is still a large number. So far (edit) eleven people have contributed (individuals, not counting manufacturer donations in that number), if I counted correctly. These people have been very generous, no question, and I'm sure some of the readers are unable to contribute, or simply don't have a large collection, but it seems to me there are many others who could spare a light (or charger, cells, or random item) without missing it too dearly.

What I'd really like is for more people to get involved on the giving side. If I see something I really like, I can enter in the giveaway like anyone else.
