CONGRATULATIONS, Dave!
Although I did no clear promise in the BRK, you will receive your gift. As soon as it's made :-)

Dave asked for six decks of cards - now conveyed.

Also, I was holding $200 for "Anon A & D" - now paid through paypal.

I can personally verify/certify that Dave has, indeed, made 100 posts about his experience at Wheaton Labs, and each of those posts had 3 pictures and a youtube video (Dave went above and beyond!)

I'm going to try to contact everyone who pledged, so I can provide them with Dave's paypall address. It might take me a few days, as I've got a lot of projects I'm juggling here at the forums and at home. You can also PM Dave for his paypal.

For those of you sending care packages (or would rather mail a check than use paypal), here is the address to mail things to Dave:

Dave Burton
c/o Paul Wheaton
2120 South Reserve Street #351
Missoula, MT 59801

If you could be so kind, please respond in this thread (or in PM to me) when you've sent your pledges to Dave. That will save me a LOT of time in contacting people. HUGE THANKS to Paul and Inge for commenting here. That helps immensely!


And big thanks to those that have supported Dave and the other Boots!!

Hi Dave. Looks like they fit well. Take good care, only wash them by hand in luke-warm water. I wish you plenty of time together ;-)

I was just checking out Jen's thread (https://permies.com/t/280/120233/jen-boot-camp), and I'm super excited to see that she's only 15 posts away from earning this! Way to go, Jen!!!

If anyone wants to join in supporting Jen, just post down below with your pledge! (Or, if you want to stay anonymous send me a PM!)

I think I owe Jen some money, but... no idea where to send it! I always feel a bit lost at this part of the BRK. Should I be waiting for someone to PM me? Or keeping up with every thread and proactively asking them for their paypal? (That's a joke, there is no way I could ever be that responsible)

I should be PMing people! But, life's been nuts. Anyone want to help with PMing people ?

I think if I make a post below this with her paypal info, and minimize it, it should be safe from bots...

Right on, well my BRK reward is sent off! Wish I could help you on the rest, but I suspect I'd just add more chaos and flakiness at this point in my life. Thanks for keeping track!

Nicole, I'm not up to it tonight, but am willing to ping folks tomorrow if that's helpful.  Just say the word and I'll go to work in the morning!

We just got another annoymous donar for the next person who completes the BRK! And, they're pitching in $200!

Also, Josiah is just a few days from achieving the BRK. Would anyone else like to thank him for all the great videos and pictures and work he's done at Wheaton Labs for the past 6 months?

Sent out my pledge to Orin! And I'd send one to Josiah if I had a paypal address...

BTW — I'd love to remove my Boots pledges from the original BRK thread and just keep the one I have here for simplicity's sake. Also thinking it might be a good idea to remove the Boot's portion of the list in that thread since it's outdated by this one.

I just received a check from Dr. H, so now he has 5 pledges in the hopper of $250 each!

Nicole, I think that might bump the total up a bit!

It doesn't have to be in the list, but I still knit wool hats for boots (or other inhabitants) who post 100 or more posts in their own thread (with photos or videos). Soon I'll send them, together with some seeds, in a small 'care package'.
Staff note (Nicole Alderman) :

Added it to the list--thank you, Inge!!!

The package is on its way!
It's addressed to Jen, Josiah, Orin and Clayton.
I had to fill in a small form about what was in it, the weight and value. I hope you don't have to pay for receiving it, that was why I added a value of only 20 euros and only wrote down there were knitted hats in it, as a gift.
Please send me a PM when it's arrived.
