So yesterday, I held the raffle. First of all, Bear_Music graciously compiled the list of names for me so all I had to do was print them out...
But through no fault of his own, the list obviously had some problems with it. So I went ahead and compiled the names myself, printed them out and cut them into individual pieces...
And placed them in the Lens Cup.
Then I drew the name...
It was Yanko, so I ignored it and decided to have Riley draw the winner:
AND THE WINNERS IS...........
I will be shipping the prize out on Tuesday and there may be a surprise inside (nothing poisonous or deadly).
Thanks again everyone. It was fun and you are all awesome friends.
eta: oh yeah, I forgot to say that I was kidding about pulling Yanko's name. That was a joke that maybe only a few will get. ;-)
For those that helped out in the "[url=//www.dpchallenge.com/forum.php?action= eta: oh yeah, I forgot to say that I was kidding about pulling Yanko's name. That was a joke that maybe only a few will get. ;-)
Obviously that was photoshopped. No way you would have been able to withstand the gravitational pull from the vortex forming around it had it been placed in with the others.
ETA: What's with all the extra space on each piece? At least add the words "intentionally left blank" to warn people...
Admittedly, I didn't read the required specs in the raffle manual, but now that I think about it, I should have written "intentionally left blank" on them.
Others like me, at a great distance, strong
of voice, my humpbacked brothers, sing the pelagic void.
Brother and brother sing, shadows within the Stream,
shadow on shadow, spiraling blue down deep,
sharing a breathless dream.
Wait, belay that! I'm a bear, not a whale... Or shall I rename myself WhaleSong?

I don't didn't know what Munsoned is, but no, it is not the same as getting Yankoed. But now I am on a quest to get Yankoed into the Urban Dictionary. ...or at least the DPC version of the Urban Dictionary which I can't find at the moment.
Yankoed - verb: posting a comment or opinion that is first overlooked by subsequent posters, then usurped by someone who then gets/takes all credit for the original comment or opinion.
I think it started as a joke to make Yanko believe he really doesn't exist.

You are going to be required by Federal Law to redo the drawing, I went through the entire list and I didn't see my name once. Meaning you violated fair Raffle laws. Sorry to Yanko and Spork99 but your winning was flawed.
