Can I have two since I got stiffed in the SFA one?

We will see.

 

[Chief]

Entrants are now allowed up to TWO tickets in the draw.

If you have already got a ticket, you can now get another one.

I'll take one if available please

 

[Chief]

Facepalm.

This raffle system is a bit dodgy. When the draw is done I might need to redraw it.

Apparently if you have more than one chance, it doesn't throw your ticket out once it is drawn. It goes back in the barrel. So someone with one ticket could get multiple horses, while others miss out.

It will all be fixed up in the end but I'm running out of time to make sure every sweep is done correctly in the next 15 minutes.

Still 2 tickets left.

Hi all.

So we didn't quite get enough tickets, then when we did the system's quirks were exposed.
