My fellow Capsuleers:
Over the years that I have been a player of Eve Online (one of the most disabled-friendly MMOs in existence, just look at me play with my face: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8faif2_bjFY), I have seen the incredible good that we are capable of doing when we all band together when one of our own is in need. Today, I find that I myself am in need (significantly more need than usual, that is), and I humbly ask for you to do so again.
May is National Mobility Awareness Month, and my wife has entered me into a contest to win a new wheelchair accessible van, because the one I got when I suffered a spinal cord injury in 2003 is in less than serviceable condition. Click this link:
http://www.mobilityawarenessmonth.com/entrant/robin-digia-southfield-mi/
You can watch the video in which my wife and I explain my situation, and why I need your votes. I'm up against a great many people, so every vote counts. You just have to register, and then vote for me. You can vote once per day, and I super humbly beg that you do. Thank you very much for your time. I know it's valuable.
Thank you very much:
Brandon DiGia (a.k.a. Gommel Nox)

It was all pretty easy.
They did a good job with that site.

The thing about this signature is that by the time you realise it doesn't say anything interesting you're almost done reading it anyway.

Whilst the Minmatar put their Trust in Rust, your van should be a step up from that.

I suffered a spinal cord injury about 12 years back, and while I don't suffer pain when I'm cold I do get cold often, and it drives me out of my mind.
Also just wanted to post to inform you guys that I unfortunately did not win this year. I did, however, want to thank you guys for voting for me. I really appreciate it, especially considering most of you don't even know who I am. Thank you so much for taking the time.

I just want to stick my head in and say that I work daily with severely disabled individuals in the realm of fitness and maintenance. I will assume that you are already working with therapists and what not, but if you ever have any questions about fitness I will do my best to assist you with explanations or concepts via my philosophy within the field.
What level is your spinal cord injury? |

Do it again next year, mate. I didn't see this thread until today, so I'm guessing there are a lot more EVE players like me out there. Next time we can get the word out better.

Don't you get any discounts and stuff for disability like for instance here in Finland you would get a 60% subsidiary from the government for acquiring such a vehicle ?
Though I'm always kind of shocked that you people in the states really have to do all sorts of fund raisers and what not for something that would come as a matter of fact from the social services in most countries in Europe. |

Hey so this is Gommel's new blog about accessible gaming.
http://www.accessiblegamer.com/
The motivations for this are rooted in the NMEDA campaign of the thread topic. The best I can explain it is that when you get a group of people together to brainstorm, something like this happens.
I hope you like it.
