I donated $200 to Dan East. How much did U donate?

[Mark Rejhon]

Hi,<br><br>It seems that other people have donated only $11 total, so far.   I donated $200 which Dan East received already (albiet one month later than I intended admittedly, because I was moving and setting up new bank account).<br><br>You may remember the PocketQuake challenge that I posted on BrightHand where I offered $200 to the first person who ported Quake to the PocketPC.  Quake on PocketPC was inevitable, but my challenge was what caused Dan East to decide to start it in the first place... (He told me this in email).  But Dan East deserves all the credit!<br><br>Now you SHOULD donate!  Here's the web addy:<br><br>https://secure.paypal.com/xclick/business=bb%40rlsinc.com&undefined_quantity=1&item_name=Donation+for+Pocket+Quake&amount=1.00&return=http%3A//www.pocketmatrix.com/pocketquake/

Confirmed working, the web addy is on three lines, but here are the instructions:<br><br>1. Mark the whole web address, all lines of it.<br>2. Right click the marked web address text<br>3. Select "Copy"<br>4. Open Internet Explorer<br>5. Paste into the Address line.<br>6. Hit Enter (or click "Go")<br>7. You get the PocketQuake PayPal page!<br>8. Donate a few bucks.<br>   (please try least $20 or more though!)<br>

Dude its great that you donated that much, and god know Dan and the team deserves every penny of it, but you kinda ruin it when you put up a post to brag about it. We are all already aware of the donation link and not everybody has $200 to donate. -- Xid

do you have $5 to donate? every little bit helps...

[Moose or Chuck]

I give you my 2 cents daily, so don't say I don't donate ;D

[killzat - mark]

I'd have to agree, people don't like the money issue and it kind of pisses us off =). I'll certainly donate some money, but not all of us will do it right away and don't want any pressure, for our own reasons.<br><br>Why don't you add an advertising network to sponsor this site, not hard and it does make money - more than $11 anyway =). I see no banner at the top of the forum.

Its funny that you say that. I have been hearing "we are not interested....." for months now. It seems nobody wants to advertise on our site. Which is wierd, we have a pretty good click through ratio. And we get more hits than most advertisers require. The ads that we do have up are really ridiculus, I think they have payed 60 bucks for a few months of advertising.<br><br>Last modification: Matt Keys - 04/18/01 at 20:55:48

Who are you going to to  advertise? It doesn't seem right that the industry would shun this kind of "obvious" progression of PDAs.<br><br>I'm going to talk to a few people and see what they think about how to go about marketing something like pocketQuake.<br><br>Even if they don't play games, they should at least see the potential.<br><br>

[randall]

Okay,  I've already done a little research. There are a few key points that need to be restructured before approaching an advertiser. This information was compiled through a visit to the main site on a "first impressions" basis.<br><br>e-starbrokers.com would like to consult the marketing of pocketMatrix/PocketQuake. The main draw to PocketMatrix appears to be pocketQuake, a product that we firmly believe has enormous potential to shift the entire PDA gaming industry.<br><br>Matt, Chris (anybody?), could you send a sample of the advertising solicitation letters to the following email adresses?:<br><br>andie@e-starbrokers.com<br>randy@e-starbrokers.com<br><br>We would like to review any other information you deem necessary to "sell" the idea. Everybody is a potential investor/partner/advertiser- it's just a matter of marketing.<br><br>If you would like more information regarding our services, feel free to contact us at the above email.<br><br><br><br>
