Christmas / Holiday Raffle

Lurker? Lurker! When are you gonna draw for that prize?

[lurker]

You all are absolutely right. Not to worry Made in the USA. It will be the post number and not from my list of names.

As an additional challenge, I went back to that "old coat" looking for some paper and found five $10 books of B&B Theatre coupons that were bought to help out Big Brother/Big Sisters and want to pass them along to 5 more winners.

Turns out that my attempt to get a neutral path to the winning number is heavily weighted to the extreme ends of the number string. Not the bell shaped curve but the saucer shaped curve.... so that less than brilliant idea is out. I have been on http://www.randomizer.org/form.htm and the other links are just as fine, too.... but "How to determine the number in an impartial way?" has been my question...... Who will run the program and give the answer? I really want to be fair.

So now I have to figger out how to pick SIX WINNERS from four paws, each with less than six fingers.

What do YOU think this poor stewpid quadriped of a doG should dew?

pick me pick me pick me

Unless someone has a better idea, I will run the random number generator starting at 9:00 tonight and post them on the shout box as the generator spits them out. The first 5 numbers will be for the B&B books and the last one will be for the TEN WHOLE US DOLLARS. Should any number be one of my post numbers I will re-run the generator. The range of numbers will be set between 2 and 42 so as to eliminate my first and last post. Should there be a Multiple winner, then there will be a Multiple WINNER.

B&B bucks can only be used around Dodge City and I think Hays- what if say, TexKan wins one of the books of B&B bucks- she obviously couldn't use them....

[K C Muffin]

Me, either - if I win those - run the randomizer again........

[TexKan]

Let me join that "giving" spirit - If I win rerun mine as well - hell it was fun just to play......good idea to the very end...........Now if I win that $10 - go put it in the Sally red kettle for me.

I am sure that if someone wins the B&B bucks and can't use them, they will donate them back to "the cause".

Surely, you know someone in Kansas, Oklahoma, or Missouri that goes to the movies that you can send them to?

Not me - my sissy's don't go to the movies. I really would prefer mine get thrown back in. ALTHO I have been hangin out on bidz.com Guess I could run a 3 minute auction - .....LOL

Here is the numbers as they came off the generator:
10
34
29
25
14
27
02
And the WINNER of the TEN WHOLE US DOLLARS IS NINETEEN!

It went rather fast and some numbers were re-drawn in the B&B pool due to residence and opportunity logistics. I haven't sorted that out yet; but those are the numbers.
