Da rules:
-Venmo $2 to @danpdx. Profile photo is me failing to surf
-Include your TGR handle in the notes
-Cutoff is noon Pacific on Monday March 25
-if we win under $100, I'll consider it a tip
-if we win $100 - $1000, I'll donate it to https://highfivesfoundation.org/
-Amounts over $1k will be paid out by Venmo. I mean, unless we win the jackpot, that will have to be cashier's checks or something, IDK, never tried to send someone a few million dollars before

It wants me to put in the last 4 digits of your phone number in order to venmo.

You do realize that they have the same corporate overlords, right?

Re: the phone number prompt, you should be able to bypass it with the "pay without confirming" button.

I’m in thanks! (BmillsSkier, duh)

I also tossed in $2 for each of: Riser4, Liv2Ski and ex-powderbroker cause that’s what we do here.

With one huge caveat: you need a textable phone number that Venmo recognizes as an actual cell phone, not a VoIP number. For years, that kept me out because I use a Google Voice number and was using a data-only plan for connectivity. Works great now that I've got a work phone number associated with a Verizon account, except that I never actually use my number so I need to look it up anytime someone gets asked for the last for digits.

And back to our regularly scheduled finger crossing.

What the fuck assholes? Someone buy me a fucking ticket

Edit: got it to work and covered powpig

For the record, PayPal and Venmo both suck. And yes, I know they are both the same company. I use PayPal because I already have it from back when I used to buy the occasional item from eBay. The only reason I still use it is for megjillions. I never hooked it up to my bank account, only my CC. I heard too many horror stories about eBay and PayPal to ever want to link it to the place where my paycheck goes. I don't have multiple bank accounts. And constantly moving money around seems like a pain. I also don't do any banking from my phone. Therefore something like Venmo which is linked to a bank account and designed for mobile use is the opposite of what I think is safe. A [mobile] phone number should never be part of any portion of a financial transaction. It wasn't designed to be secure. I already have to keep my credit rating stuff frozen because of some ID theft nibbles. So I'm on edge as it is
