Welcome to The Sealed Envelope Giveaway!

This Thread is a Hangout Thread for the old TSEG

IMPORTANT NEWS:

So after much thought and deliberations, I have decided that it's time to close up shop.

With working a 40+ hour work-week, choosing to not donate directly to Gaia, and the Thread slowing down, I've decided that now is the best time to close down the Giveaway.

Here are my plans:

I have quite a few sponsors for my thread from the Nudist Event that are about to donate a very large chuck of Gold to me on June 14th. I plan on keeping this Thread open until at least the 15th of June.

I will not have a standard Giveaway on the 10th, but instead, use that Gold I receive on the 14th to hold one large GIVEAWAY BASH on the 15th.

It will be sad leaving the Giveaway Business, but I think now is the perfect time.

You will all still see me in Shiver Me Timbers, Yuji's Charity, but as of the 16th of June, this Giveaway will no longer be operating. The thread will remain open for any of those who want to stay and chat, but this Giveaway will end.

I thank everyone who became my friend, and I still congratulate all those I have donated to.

I think over the course of this Giveaway (and its two threads), I have donated somewhere close to 1 Million Gold worth of Sealed Envelopes and other Items/Gold.

I could not thank everyone enough for all the love and support they have shown me and my Thread, both in its ups and downs.

Thank you, everyone.

If you would like more details on the Giveaway Bash, stay tuned to the Front Page or ask any of my Thread Regulars.

Most of my thread regulars think it's fitting that they wear a Green Kimono (for Females) or a Green Avatar of some sort (For Guys) for my Final Week. If you would like to participate, feel free to.

Here is my Avatar when I started my Giveaway:

Again, I cannot thank everyone enough.

UPDATE:

I just had an idea. This thread can no longer remain in the Charity/Quest forum after the 16th of June, because it will no longer be a charity, and I'm not converting it into a Quest.

After the 16th of June, this Thread will remain open, but moved to the Friend Chat forum. <3

About Shay:

I'm a MAN'S man BWHAHAHAHA

I am a 23-year-old who has been an active member of Gaia for over two years. Don't let my Profile fool you, I've had other accounts.

I am a Computer Tech who loves the internet and playing games. I manage my own Computer Repair place in a little town in Colorado, and therein, get good pay. That's the only reason why I do this. And besides, if I don't donate to Gaia, who will?

I'm just trying to keep Gaia Open and Free for the teen community. At least this gets them off the streets and gets them doing something constructive with their time. I also love helping people that can't Donate to Gaia directly. By offering a chance to help someone, maybe someone else will turn around and help someone else. Kinda like Pay It Forward (except without the kid dying at the end).

If you think I need to change something, I am always open for discussions and suggestions. Just PM me your idea and We'll see what we can do!

Shay's Quest:

Shay's Quest for One Thousand Trash!

I am now Questing one thousand of every game item, except fish. Fish are smelly.
Please Help by donating?

This be mah Coco kittah.
I've had him (yes, it's a boy), for at least the last year without a proper name for him,
so I held a little contest in my thread to pick a name for him, and after a week, Chocolate Chip was the most popular answer.
Cherish him as much as you cherish Steve!! (For ChocoChip owns the other half of your soul!)

The Giveaway:

There is NO Giveaway. This Thread is finished giving away items.

This Thread is now SOLELY A HANGOUT.

I've made up my mind. I am giving away a total of 3 (three) Sealed Envelopes on the 10th of each month going forward.

The reasoning behind this, it has become very costly to purchase as many Sealed Envelopes as I have every month.

I have bills to pay, and unfortunately, Gaia does not constitute as a bill I have to pay.

In order to be selected to win a Sealed Envelope, you must write a 300 Word essay on why you feel you deserve to win a Sealed Envelope and PM The Sealed Giveaway your essay.

A panel of Judges will then review all the Essays on the 10th each month, and decide their Top 3.

The Title of the PM MUST include the current month, and the word Essay.

At any time, you may submit an Essay, but as I have said previously, the current month you include in the Title or Subject of the PM is what letter you will have a chance to win.

If you want to Judge, the same rules apply. Only instead of 300 words, it is however long you think your Essay needs to be, and why you feel you would like to Judge other's applications. Word Count will not matter in the case of Judge Applicants.
