Ultima Online Gold Donated For Tsunami Relief AidAn Ultima Online player set up 19 donation houses in the massively mutliplayer game to raise virtual gold for Tsunami victims. He started the thing off by donating $3,000 of his own cash to the Red Cross and is now selling the gold on eBay to reimburse himself. If he sells more than the $3,000 he’ll donate the extra to Red Cross too, if he sells less he’ll just eat it. So far Crazy Joe has raised more than $315 million in virtual gold and earned $312 through eBay auctions. Crazy Joe invites investigation, saying he isn’t running a scam, doesn’t eat puppies or run over baby ducks.
