MetPage Raffle

MetPage Raffle

MetPage is holding a raffle to raise funds to purchase two Metallica Fan sites that are no longer functioning in order to add their content to MetPage and redirect traffic from their domains to MetPage.org. The staff believes this will benefit both MetPage and the Metallica Community as a whole by preserving the information those site contain and by increasing the traffic flow to MetPage.

The raffle begins today, March 5, and will run for two week, ending on March 19. There are several different raffle prizes up for grabs and those making donations may specify which of the prizes they prefer to have a chance to win. In addition to earning a chance to win the specified prize, each person making a donation will receive ratio padding, 1GB for every $2.50 donation and 2GB for every $5.00 donation and so on.

NOTE - THERE MUST BE A MINIMUM OF 5 ENTRIES PER PRIZE TO MAKE THE RAFFLE FOR EACH PRIZE VALID. IF THERE ARE NOT 5 ENTRIES FOR ANY GIVEN PRIZE BY MARCH 19, THOSE THAT HAVE REQUESTED A CHANCE FOR THAT PRIZE WILL BE NOTIFIED AND ASKED IF THEY WOULD LIKE THEIR CHANCES TO BE APPLIED TOWARD A DIFFERENT PRIZE

allmet and metboard

Metboard.com still leads to their site and a "we are closed" notice.

AllMet has been taken down completely.

And if we gather enough money we will also try to get encycmet which was sold to another guy that only uses it to generate revenue from ads.
