:faint: Seriously... that's what fundraising, or any sort of crowd sourcing does to the producer/applicant... its a nerve wrecking wait. Do enough of this i will certainly have more white hair.

Annnnd after all that obsessive worrying and such, we made it to 260 votes!

We are qualified for the drawing! (even though our chance is still slim to none....) ANYWAY! Thank you to everyone who voted, help promoted. Reblogged, or just gave pity or laught at my silliness. :D


This is the last comic for a while.

The cause: missionsmallbusiness.com

Status: We should be in the qualifying realm with 310 votes, we will find out our result in Sept.

I couldn't get in it at all. I tried the very first day you mentioned it, but no cigar. I wonder how some people are able to, and some aren't.
