As Hurr has already decreed that globals that fetch 113 PED will get extra points, I am going to go one step futher and make this part of a charity event in Susan's memory.

If you don't know her story, find out who Susan 113 Smith was here.

For every "Susan" scored in the WOF competition, qualifier or regular round, I will donate an amount equal to 113 PEDs $(11.30 USD in my case) and donate to a Leukemia-based charity.

I have chosen:https://www.clf4kids.org/donate_now.cfm

I won't donate after *every* individual Susan, but wait until the end and donate in one big lump...I hope we get more than one!

I won't be taking any money from anyone for this(and nobody give money to anybody else...you can do this yourself via credit card), but I just ask any of you that have the desire or the means to donate, join me in this challenge! Pick a local Leukemia Charity, in your own country, and designate them as your charity. I'll keep this thread updated with Susans and tick-up the tally as they happen.

The charity I have selected has a "memorial" gift where the charity will send her family notecards notifying them of donations make in Susan's name. If anyone has contact information for her family, I'd appreciate if you could ask her family if it is ok if we have their address so the cards can be sent to them, and if they want the donation to be made in her real of avatar name.

Now...get our there and get those Susans!

It might be worth linking the thread about Susan that will give some background to this.

Was Susan considered for a memorial in EU?

Yep! I was off finding the link when you wrote this

As to the Memorial, I cannot say, but this is one way *we* can make sure she is remembered.

Great initiative Frigid, again you show that you're a great player with compassion and thought. Just one of the reasons why you're one of my favourite.

Good luck with it.

Excellent initiative Frigid, big plus rep to you. I didn't know Susan, but she sounds like a special lady who touched many lives in a positive way. I will take your challenge and also make a donation at the end of the tournament. I will donate to Leukemia Research here in the UK, it is a cause dear to my heart.

The immediate family has to contact MA and supply the necessary documentation, i.e., death certificate and so forth. And they will consider it. At least this is what I was told from MA years ago.

I didn't know Susan or ever heard of her before this. But this contest is one nice way for those who do to remember her.

Thanks, Lee...that's the spirit!

It doesn't have to be 113 peds...it could be a dollar(better make that two...the USD keeps falling ), a pound, 10 Kronor...anything per "Susan". Heck..it could be one flat ammount in her name (this will have to happen if there are no 113 PED "Susan's"...)

great idea I'll match your donations to the same charity too

Nice Idea !
