You're hedging your bets that $50 was the maximum donation. I'm sure there were more generous donations which would improve peoples chances.

Thats If everybody donated $50
I donated $100 and I expect a few others done more than $50. So may make the odds better
I just seen they are going to announce the winners in the next couple of days as there busy in the studio,
Good luck all

Faile ๐บ๐ธ New Print Release โข Show News โข Art For Sale, by Deleted on Nov 20, 2012 9:42:34 GMT 1, Motor, it looks like you were right about receiving a print afterall. I just got of the phone with one of the Patricks from Faile and he indicated that one will be on its way to me by the end of the week. As a result of the issues they had with the checkout I had 2 orders placed. One was within the first 100 and the second was not. So I end up with a print and a refund.
Great News! This is what i suspect has happened to me! Fingers crossed!

You can see the difference though with the people that were willing to donate money at $50 and those that were willing to spend on a print at $150. To me theres more chance of you winning the raffle to be fair.
Guess its all about the mentality. $6000 is a great amount but i thought that would be higher i must say. I reckon 80% of people would have given $50 and the rest who knows.
Personally think this is how they should do banksy releases as it will make people stop and think for a bit. I dont see a problem with giving anything and not hearing back, as at the end of the day you know that money is going to feed someone. You could spend that on a round of beers on a friday.

Fine if you're a forum member sunk to the nuts in staff members at print studios and galleries who are bound the have their name pushed to the top but for the rest of us that aren't flush enough to throw money at charity donations and have to make considered decisions on the art we buy its just another kick in the beans.
And if you think this doesn't happen you're away with the fairies, I know a kid who's just won a quad bike from a place where it was all rigged.

The pow open day was pretty much anonymous and thats the best way ive seen something released so far. Just a simple name in the hat and you buy raffle tickets.

You pays ya monies, your name goes in your big top hat in front of everyone and winners are drawn. Downside is everybody has to be in that fancy London with a day off work for it to happen.
Always gonna be difficult.

Twas a big hat wiz, the biggest ye town had ever seen. Twas the biggest hat in all the land and people came from far and wide to marvel.
Also they asked for your last name and mobile number. Plus your name could only be drawn once.

I'm in the same boat as you Fuzzy, I tried emailing the peeps at Faile to try and get confirmation but due to how busy they are I haven't had a reply so any info would be good.

Also, I don't know that you will see a shipping email because he mentioned that not all confirmation emails went out correctly, etc.
