that's because I have like 40 PMs, and I'm sure they all say "I want in on the raffle" Wink

I'll read them all tonight just prior to doing the raffle.

ok, making the list of names now. No more entries will be accepted!

I'll make the list, then literally pick the names out of a hat, because I'm cool like that, and PM the winners.

lol, that actually wouldn't have made a difference. I copied and pasted the inbox page into a text file (nicely tab delimited), which I then imported into Excel, color coded each name according to what they wanted to enter the raffle for (some folks wanted coasters or wristbands only), printed the whole sheet, and snipped each name into a hat. I don't have a TRON hat, so I used a Red Bull Air Race hat, that is blue with white stripes, so it looks kinda Tron-ish Wink

- So all the name papers were the same size.

First I picked the wristband winner, then I picked all the coaster winners. There were 22 winners in all, 21 coasters + 1 wristband. There were 55 total entries, 4 of them were wristband only, 4 coasters only. So each drawing had a 51 entries. Wristband odds were 1 in 51, coasters 21 in 51.

ALL WINNERS HAVE BEEN SENT A PM from me!!

YOU MUST SEND ME YOUR SHIPPING ADDRESS AS CONFIRMATION OF RECEIVING THIS PM! If you do not respond in the time specified in the PM, I will pick someone else as a replacement!

Feel free to celebrate here, but I didn't want to put the names in here in case they didn't want that.

NOTE: I am changing my name from "glyph" to "eolith". I put this in the PM as well to prevent confusion.

To make sure I didn't make any mistakes, I double and triple-checked everything I did. All names were entered and color coded in an Excel file which I still have. I only hit reply to the PM from the winner so I didn't enter the name wrong. I visually verified the name matched the name on the list. I verified there were no duplicates in the hat (I had a couple repeat PMs, and one almost slipped by me into the hat).

Enjoy!

oh, and thanks for all the wonderful compliments! I just love spreading love to a great community. I was even offered a pizza! I do like pizza...

Thanks again for this chance to win a coaster. Glad I won.

Oh and for those of you that are interested I plan on possibly doing a raffle myself later on. I have a friend who works at a movie theater, and he is working on getting me a full size cardboard light cycle display. (the one with light-up wheels), some posters, a 32mm copy of the trailer, and whatever else he can get his hands on. If he pulls through for me I'll probably throw it all towards a raffle, and keep you guys updated on the status. Perhaps we can pull together and do a larger community wide raffle where more people throw in some of their extra swag they have. Well we will see as more info comes along.

Huge thanks for my coaster!!!
I will make SDCC one day, but alas Tron Legacy won't be a promoted feature by that time... of course if they want to do more Tron flicks after this I won't complain Very Happy

I'm really looking forward to the coaster and having something from the SDCC ARG event.
Much thanks and *hugs* for doing such a cool thing for us all here Smile

Goes off to do a little happy dance... Very Happy

Well even though I didn't win, thanks for the opportunity Smile

I'll have to check ebay and see if I can get some items for cheap.

I'd still love it if the guys over at flynnlives.com eventually give out some of the comicon items as prizes for more stages in the game. So maybe I'll have to wait a little while longer in hopes that they do.

Had someone else decide to pass. Shipping is $3 to the US, lest any are scared of the shipping costs, slightly more to UK/AUS/CAN (like $3.75 or so)

One more coaster going out... NOTIFIED.

Btw, I'm actually taking more of a hit on this than expected, as Paypal takes 40 cents per $3 payment! ouch! No big deal though, really. Saves on postage and time.
