I'm going to donate anyway, but serious question: is there a way to label my donation as going towards some kind of "from Racketboy" pool?

If there's a way to tag it -- even if it's just via PM or note on the transaction -- I'd love to do that. I'm surprised by how much I'm into the idea of our earning a labeled table.

Funny how this hypothetical donation scenario itself has an arcade flavor for me -- I always pooled tickets with family members and friends to get the super cool prizes. :lol:

we sold out of the $350 table perks already, but if you guys pool together anything remotely close to that, i'll make sure there's a racketboy table or booth or corner or something. hell maybe i'll put a plaque on a cocktail machine, labeled "brought to you by racketboy.com"

quick update, specifically for Key-Glyph and anyone else planning on contributing, we just added a "Backers' Table" perk where you'll get an engraved plaque on a long, free-standing cocktail table. the best perk, imo, is still the Pint Club, which gets you a special glass entitling you to $1 off beers each time you bring it in.

anyway, thanks for the support thus far. if you guys are anywhere near Indy on this sunday, we're hosting a 10-player bomberman tournament (thanks to fastbilly1 for the assist!). message me for details if you'd like to come.

What if I donate a cab? What level of backer does that put me? Hypothetically speaking ofcourse.

aaron will put full-size artwork decals of you on each side of the cab. I will pay for a sign that says something predictable like, "For a great time call ###-####".
