This is going to be a recurring theme.

This raffle draw system is a little bizarre.

I will roll a few dice to make sure everyone gets a horse.

Ahh that is weird :(

I wonder if drawing via response to a thread would be easier? 1st response gets Slot 1, 2nd Slot 2 etc

Probably a lot of work though

I got Jamie Kah

Apparently she is absolutely red hot. Does that make her a better jockey?

I entered and didn't get a horse. :huh:
 
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.
