Added a donate button at the bottom of the website for whoever is feeling generous.  100% of donations will go back to the site/community and will not be for my personal use. Donations will be used for tournament prizes, community events/contests, paying for a programmer to implement new features, or webhosting.

A $10 donation will let you pick whatever shoutbox nickname color you want, except black which is reserved for moderators/staff.
Color code chart: http://html-color-codes.info/

You can also donate prizes for tournaments if you would rather not send money.  Also, you can donate services such as programming code if you can implement or improve features on HD.  Contact me if you're interested.

Note: Paypal charges a fee on every donation, so it's better to donate by sending money to donate@harddrop.com as a gift.

Making a donation requires neither a credit card nor a PayPal account. You can buy a card like this with cash and PM Blink the code on the card:

Blink can enter the code into his PayPal account without incurring any fees. Suck it PayPal

Weird, have never seen this before anywhere in sweden...  But nvm I fixed the account - still a good idea for others

Thanks to everyone so far, we've been able to raise over $100 in prizes for future tournaments.  

For those of you who don't want to send money, donations are also accepted such as:

Recruiting a new member
Liking us down below
Mention our site on your facebook, blog, twitter, or messenger profile.
Live streaming your Tetris skills when the stream is free.

blazen_azn revisited the idea of selling HD T-shirts as a fundraiser, but we are still in need of a good t-shirt design.  So artwork donations are also accepted.

Once again, thanks very much and your donations are very much appreciated from everyone here.

Noogy

how do you know how many new members you've recruited?
is there some sort of referral box for those who sign up on HD?

ohitsstef

I will show you my paypal transaction history if you agree to donate some money towards the Tetris community.   Deal?  Anyone who has already donated, if you'd like to see the history (with names blacked out incase the donator doesn't want their amount disclosed), you can PM me.

So whats the plan now, still going to be "only" two 50$ turneys a year or are we gonna have more turneys each year?

I'd rather it be fewer tourneys with a large number of people and epic prizes.

I'm not questioning what you do so no need to get defensive. I'm just trying to protect the donors so they know their money was put towards the community.

didn't sound that defensive to me :s it was more like a 'why don't you donate too~'
i'm w/ paradox but mostly cause i don't like tourneys..there are too many going on! so maybe fewer n more participants yayay
however..there are a lot of diff games the tourneys can be hosted on now so fewer tourneys would mean neglecting some platforms :[[/color]
