RPGamer posted here about Crazy Joe's milestone promise to shave his head.
Here's what they had to say:
Crazy Joe, an Administrator of Stratics and the owner of Gamers Charity, posted two grand milestones that the Ultima Online Community has reached with the Red Cross fund. The first is that One Billion Gold has been donated to be auctioned off on eBay. This has been going on for a while, with the proceeds from these auctions going to the Red Cross for Asian tsunami victims. eBay stopped a few of the auctions, but apparently Gamers Charity is back in business and doing well again.
The second announcement is that donations have exceeded $5,000. This is certainly a feather in the Ultima Online community's cap and has surely helped in the effort to ease the stress of such a disaster as December's tsunami. You can see Crazy Joe's announcement on the Gamers Charity homepage. Previously, Crazy Joe promised to shave his head if gold donations exceeded a billion. A look at the website will show he's a man of his word.
