Offical Winter Blaze Contest Rules and Info

Ever hear of random.org? I'll likely be using it for frontpage contests soon, they perform the drawing for you, and they provide you a link so participants can verify results. Not sure what your current process is, but it might be something to check out down the road.

For my use, I believe I'd have to pay a nominal fee to run the contest, but I think it's only like 5 bucks for a reasonable amount of contest entrants.

Just used it for the Rosetta contest. Harlam linked me to it a month or so b4 the contest started. Works like a charm and does everything you want/need it to. $8 for 1000 entry, customizable draw, and the left over just stays on your account to go towards the next draw. The other nice thing about it, is that it allows you to do free dry runs and shows you exactly how everything will work and be displayed when the real thing happens. That way there are no surprises. Well worth the money IMO.
 
Wow...

That's amazing, I didn't realize it had all those features... I will have to use that in future drawings then...


Your Cries of sadness have been heard

As for my previous comment, I realize making you guys wait is cruel and unusual so instead of putting together a vid of the drawing like I was planning I will be announcing the winner as soon as I can make the thread.

Your Cries of sadness have been heard

And the angel of the lord came unto me, snatching me up from my place of slumber. And took me on high, and higher still until we moved to the spaces betwixt the air itself. And he brought me into a vast farmlands of our own midwest. And as we descended, cries of impending doom rose from the soil. One thousand, nay a million voices full of fear. And terror possesed me then. And I begged, "Angel of the Lord, what are these tortured screams?" And the angel said unto me, "These are the cries of the carrots, the cries of the carrots! You see, Reverend Maynard, tomorrow is harvest day and to them it is the holocaust." And I sprang from my slumber drenched in sweat like the tears of one million terrified brothers and roared, "Hear me now, I have seen the light! They have a consciousness, they have a life, they have a soul! Damn you! Let the rabbits wear glasses! Save our brothers!"


Rather sure I won't win anything but here to wishing. I'm on;y just now in the last few days pushing 10kppd. I hope that no matter who gets the item it lasts them for years in their folding rigs.
