So the Hearts, Hands, and Voices Child's Play charity drive is going quite well! We're having a blast on Twitter with all the blame tweets. Some are downright hilarious, others make me go “awww, sowwey!”
But here's a little story about how I fail…
It's been very cool to connect with more members of the WoW blogging/podcasting/twittering community as we come together through Azeroth United. It has also been fun and interesting to see the creative ways people are getting the word out about the community and the charity drive.
For example, I entered the first Hex Factor contest and won!
Afterwards, as I was perusing Swagdog.com for a shirt so I could use the code I won, I was reminded that I was provided codes to use and/or giveaway for helping to support the charity drive.
Oops.
That's what I get for skimming my email.
So, I want to say sorry to the 2nd place entry of that contest since they really should have gotten the code instead of me. I just wanted to have fun and enter my “For the children!” battlecry slogan.
I did order a shirt though… a very fitting blaming shirt…
Speaking of #iblamesyrana, that is going marvelously. I think we'll hit our blame tweet mark well before December 13th!
As a thank you to all who have helped spread the word, donated, blamed me, etc….
I offer to you this special 25% code that can be used at Swagdog.com between Monday 11/9/09 and Sunday 11/15/09: childsplay226
Hey, you could even get your very own I Blame Syrana guild shirt!
/facepalm
Oh well. Please feel free to enter the other contests too, though – I can always pass the prize to second place if you win, if you want.
The more people who enter, the better (shameless plug for more entries) so go for it 😀
Vel.
@Veliaf – I know, very much /facepalm. I did it IRL in fact when I realized my error. Ah well, you’ll have more contests so that’s a plus! 🙂
