Any way I could get a list of the winners of my prizes so I can contact them?

Well I just got one of my prizes (THANK YOU MONTE FOR SIGNING MINE!!!!!!!!! I might have to put it in a glass case now and worship it) and I will be getting all of the CMG prizes in a day or so, once I get up off my lazy arse.
Anyway, I again want to thank Morrus, Piratecat, MONTE!!, Alisho and the rest for helping in this fund drive, you guys rock. I was just glad there was something I could do to help out my home away from home.

Stupid real life! I'm juggling job stuff with server acquisition with prize awarding with home responsibilities with Ceramic DM deadlines. Yowsa. I apologize for running late. Here's the latest:
- Adlon has the server money and the flu. Only one will be used to speed up the site. Only one will slow him down as he does the work. Can you guess which is which?
- We ARE getting the Gateway - yay! My emails to the donator were getting shunted into spam for some reason, but a phone call straightened things out. It is being shipped to Adlon on Friday. He'll then get new RAM for it, and anything else it needs.
- I have the roughly 375 donators printed out, along with the prize lists, and I'm going through and marking who is getting what. This requires a fair amount of cross-checking due to some peoples' requests to only get pdfs, and because email addresses and user names don't always line up. When I'm done two things will happen:
1. I'll email everyone to tell them about their prize(s). If needed, I'll request your address.
2. I'll split up the master list and sort if by prize publisher. I'll then send it to Alsih2o who will either send out the books himself or send it on to the fantastic publishers. For some prizes I'll send them myself -- for instance, I just got a box with Denizens of Avadnu books that someone will need to peel out of my sweaty little hands.

I just wanted to pipe in and join the chorus. Mark at Creative Mountain Games is a great guy. The SRD bundle is a terrific tool. Burn it all to CD and take it with you wherever you go. Need to do some statblocks at work during lunch? Copy/Paste from the monster stat block PDF. At the park with a laptop and you just had that inspiration for a RBDM moment? Start building an NPC with everything. Not sure how that spell works that you think will save your groups bacon in the dramatic battle tonight? Look it up real quick.
Sure it doesn't have the same 'heft factor' of the books. Nor are PDF's always easier to browse and read. But Mark has done a damn fine job with his cross-linking at making the whole thing easier to use.

Update - I've randomly assigned close to 200 prizes, with lots left to go! I didn't want anyone to think I was shirking. 
At this rate, though, prize lists won't go out until next week -- it depends how quickly folks get back to me when I ask for their address. I'm going to take slightly longer and do this properly, making it easy for Clay and the publishers to make mailing labels. There's a lot to go out!
As I said, I'll let people know by email what they've won so that they know to expect it. Thanks for being patient as I get this done.
