Two problems with proclamations like these:

A) Tor network gets even more DigitalOcean based relays, which are already
kind of discouraged due to them comprising an overly significant part of the
network as it is;

B) tons of very heavy bandwidth users sign up at DO all at once (not to
mention all using the free credit coupon!), putting an increased load on their
networks, and quite likely moving the "Implement bandwidth billing" thing up in
priorities a notch or two (which will end up diminishing the value of DO's
offers for many of their users, not just for Tor relay operators).

IOW you could do better than posting the entire thing here. :)

No idea. This is the first promo code I've used.

Maybe we are limited to only one promo code of that nature?  I used
DIVEIN10 about two years ago and using LOWENDBOX says "Sorry, this promo
cannot be applied to your account. Most promos are valid for new
customers only."

This is great. I have just entered the promo code in the billing section
of my account, and voilĂ , $15 have been added. Thank you, Tristan, for
pointing me to the right place, and thanks to Markus for mentioning the
promo.

Yes, just create a new account, they don't check any data, you just need a new 
(free) e-mail and enter the promo code at signup. Worked great here and we now 
have a new India droplet :)

Btw, asian country relays worked out bad with tor. Around 1-2 Mbyte traffic :( 
no clue why.

It's in the billing settings after you log in.

I have tried creating an additional Droplet, but it seems that promo codes
cannot be entered anywhere in this process. Probably only when registering
a new customer account, I suppose?

Thanks! Going on 2 months with an exit node. I had to disable SSH after
about a month, but that's the only complaint I've gotten.

Guard/Middle is no problem at all. My exits have been kicked after
around 4 months (too many abuse mails :( )

Promocode: LOWENDBOX

I do not get any money from it, just to let you know, DigitalOcean is
already big in the Tor network but its free money :)
