As much as I would love to win first prize again, I would like just as much for someone else to have that feeling when they get the phone call telling them that they won

It's even better when the watch arrives at your house.

Going to bounce my question back into play before it gets buried and I acknowledge the other two or three people who have asked..

How do you become a pledge member? I searched and found an old post about 2008 pledges and found an email to make donations via Paypal. Is this still appropriate?

Is pledging only open at the beginning of the year with a limited membership? I found that pledging requires a $20 donation. I don't know if the value of donation allows one different privileges but I must say I'm willing to put up much more than the bare minimum to be a part of this draw.

I'm fairly certain the post still applies, but I'm sure someone who knows more definitively will come along and clarify.
