TACKLEBERRY!

Ugh, somehow I lost that thread from my "My threads"-list, I just sent you an e-mail.

Ok guys. Tackle has graciously decided to donate his session to someone else so I ran the random number generator again. We have a new winner! This time it is cooper667!

In for April.

Me too! Me too!

Just found this. I've definitely got a couple hundred bucks I can use on this... will sign up.

Goddam I'm such a spaz. I made my loans before joining the team. Oh well. Got 8 of them altogether. That's 100 buyins at my stakes so should hold me for a bit.

Haha sucks that it didn't count towards our total, but awesome nonetheless!

Be sure to re-loan for our team once you get that $ back though


Update - we just hit $6k loaned!

Congrats to cooper667 and Tackleberry! How many coaches are participating?

I'm going to try and do 1 donation every time I have a winning month, at least until some of the initial ones are repaid and can be re-loaned.

Stanmore,

Tackleberry did the same thing. I think he emailed them and they credited the loans to Buy-In To Giving. Maybe shoot Kiva an email and see if they'll do the same for you?

Brag? Pay-pal froze my account because of the suspiciously large amounts of money going through it (I never use pay-pal but it's the only way to get money on Kiva ).

I (and Paypal) cannot believe how generous you are!

I'm wondering if my bank calls me about "duplicate transactions" as I did 4, then 4 again a couple of minutes later... same exact amount total, same vendor...

Did they? I never got a response to my e-mail ...

I'll try... but I'm shamed enough as it is... I didn't even read the thread down as far as Tackleberry's one... just got overexcited and jumped straight in.

EDIT: sent.

Hey everyone,

I'm thinking of adding a page on the website featuring some of the BI2G members, stating why each chose to join the team. If you could post in here or PM me with a short write-up detailing why you chose to join and what motivates you to give, that would be greatly appreciated!

Someone also gave me the idea to pool our efforts and pick 1 big loan to which we could all contribute. Then we could post it on the home page as our "featured loan" or something like that. Not sure exactly how to do that, but I thought it was a pretty good idea.

If you have any good ideas, let me know!

Hey Guys,

I love the idea of this! I just joined, although I can't give right now (unless someone knows how I can give my frozen monies that's in my ewalletxpress account.) I just wanted to post in the thread to make sure I get any updates.

If anyone needs to do a site transfer to give, just PM me. I can ship a Kiva gift card in exchange for a FT or PS transfer. I realize this might not be the case for you HotDiggy, just letting everyone know
