Hello it's Thonk. Sorry everyone but the email from Luftrum went into my Spam folder and I missed it. Contacting everyone today and shipping immediately :)

Since I haven't heard from Twisted-Electrons yet, I just sent email to check in with them.

Thank you all for letting me part of this to help the Syrian Refugees. :hug:

I am now the very proud owner of a shiny new DSI Mopho SE!
Fantastic sounding synth.

Many thanks to Luftrum for running the Call to Arms auction, and also to
the lovely people at DSI who got a sizeable bit of hardware to me here Down Under in an incredibly short amount of time :tu:

I got a response from Alex this morning; he's working on them "for the next week or so, hoping to ship very soon" and will send me a tracking number when he has it. :)

Received my products from Sonalksis. All done and dusted now. Great job all.
Time is an illusion - lunchtime doubly so.

Hi all.

The raised funds were handed over to Save the Children a week ago and below is a picture of the diploma received yesterday along with the final calculation. I have cut down my own contribution from $1200 to $1000. There was lot of extra donations on top of the winning bids meaning the total stays around the same.

Call to Arms Main Auction $29695
Luftrum Donation $1000
PayPal donations $762
Samplephonics donation $750
2nd Hand Marketplace $660
PayPal fees -$1501
Total amount to Save the Children $31366

Transparency is important when handling this amount of money based purely on trust - so if anyone should be in doubt whether I manufactured the diploma and kept the money myself, spending them on hardware synths and beers instead, then I urge you to contact Save the Children Denmark on redbarnet@redbarnet.dk they can confirm my transaction.

All contributions equally count toward the amazing total we raised, but just for fun... here are the top three contributing companies:

#1 Dave Smith Instruments raised $1585
#2 Mutable Instruments raised $1495
#3 Samplephonics raised $1250

Okay folks, that's it. I need a break and might not do a 2016 charity. This years result has been absolutely amazing, breaking all former years, but it has also been too time consuming and mentally challenging, even though I have had great help from many of you which the diploma below reflect. I will be back in 2017.

If any mod can now unsticky this would be great.

Over and out...

Awesome! I'm really proud of this community and the donating devs. :)

They forgot to type an 'n' on the diploma ('...i Syria'). They were probably in a hurry to give the money to the children...
