Thank you for providing this very thoughtful opportunity, to have something that will rest on my desk, and remind me.

You’re welcome and thank you for bidding!
He can consider himself lucky, if I don't beat the living shit out of him next time I see him.
Congrats Cryptotourist! That was a close race between you and your cousin there. 
Thanks homer.

OgNasty, It was both kind and generous of you to create a coin in honour of Bruno and to put it up for charity auction. You're awesome.

I hope sending BTC from my exchange is okay (cannot sign anything).

As for the other raffle, isn't it best to leave the slots empty for those who haven't donated?
That doesn't seem to be happening very much, so at least getting thru the first round would help attract attention. There are still two more rounds to do so if need be, so in short, no you aren't hurting future donations to Bruno by claiming your slots. So come claim them!
Em, Cryptotourist can have it.
I was only bidding him up.

I don't think he can post for a few minutes. Did I win?
@TECHSHARE distracted me, and lost the deadline by 14 seconds.
edit: don't think about it, I won.

Sorry xD
I didn't even realize how close it was.
Auction Rules: None.
I would say if OGNasty says you did, you did. Once the winner is confirmed and payment made, come claim your slots!

It's cool man, it was only my cousin.
If he won, I would have beaten it off him.

I didn't specify the seconds, and it is for charity so I'd like to see the higher bid win... But I'll let The Tourist decide the winner since he was the previous high bidder.
Okay, one sec.

Phinnaeus Gage has been around since my first weeks on the forum. He has always been helpful whenever I reached out to him, and is one of the people who I felt genuinely cared about the Bitcoin community. After reading his below linked post, I felt I had to try and do something, so I though I would engrave a 1oz .999 fine silver round in order to try and help Bruno. My hope is that it brings a moment of joy to him, and maybe inspires others to do something as well. Obviously the auction's proceeds will be going straight to Bruno's requested donation address.

I would also like to encourage anyone reading this or placing a bid to take the time to send a small donation of 0.0001860 BTC to 1FkHCFv8PN1kerJct3RsQQpMcRoTnx2vWe (representing the year the inspiration of his username, Phineas Gage passed) in order to support Bruno and maybe bring a smile to his face. If you do and post the tx on this thread, I would appreciate it.
WINNING BIDDER: Cryptotourist @ 0.029 BTC
Auction Rules: None.
Auction Ends: 4/4/20 4:44pm MDT
Shipping: US: Free, International: Actual Shipping Cost
I tried to find a good photo of Bruno to use in addition to an image provided by TECSHARE and while I do not typically engrave photos onto coins, I think it came out fairly well.
