COMMON QUESTIONS & HELP - CHECK BACK HERE REGULARLY
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Competition Slots available: Feb 12, 2006 - 100 entered, 25 spots left

How do I enter this competition? Where? See the link just above here to enter.

Q: What does my $20 get me?
your $20 entry fee enters you into a contest where there will be one winner selected among the 125 entrants. In case of a tie a winner will be randomly selected where you are assigned eight numbers between 000&999. The numbers are all relative to each other by 125. e.g. the person who has #000 also has 125, 250, 375, etc.

Q: How are those numbers determined?
1: You can enter your favorite three numbers when you pay your $20 entry fee (will use the first one that isn't already taken)
2: Kenny will select one at random from a random number picker on the Web. The other 7 numbers are relative to the first number (as explained above)

Q: I paid, now where are my numbers?
Kennydoe, our 'Raffle Guru', is handling everyone's money and all the numbers. When all 125 entries are sold, the list of everyone's numbers will be posted publicly, along with the date of the drawing.

Q: I paid my entry fee 2 days ago but had a dream last night that my winning number was "362". Can I tell Kenny to change my number?
NO. Once your number is assigned, it's set in stone.

Q: When is the drawing?
48-72 hours after the last ticket is sold.

Q: I just signed up for Paypal and I'm listed as 'unverified' - it will take a few days to verify myself, but the rules say I need to be verified to enter. What should I do?
Just sign up and send money. We won't draw without you, unless you take more than a week or two to be verified.

paypal.com: I've [Kennny the raffle treasurer] already received a couple of emails about 'what's paypal and how do i use it?' I'm helpful by nature, but PLEASE...try to figure it out yourself. www.paypal.com. Sign up for an account, it's free. you can either put money into an account or you can hook it directly into your bank account. Paypal will not charge you, as a buyer, to use their service.

email address for all inquiries is winajemAToptonline.net. Glen & I will both have access to it, however i think it will probably be mostly me who's checking it ;) Any messages other than this paypal email that says you paid will be ignored. Do NOT email about numbers, etc.

Winning Number selection: is randomly generated by the same lottery site the winning number will be picked. If you requested a "number" it may or not be assigned and if not you get random numbers. Everyone will get EIGHT NUMBERS that range from 000-999 (1000 combinations = 8x125)

eligibility of moderators & vendors: I have concluded since they all began as forum members and many have contributed to the forum over the years, they are eligible to participate in the raffle EXCEPT the "guitar dealer/reseller vendors" who are comprised of Rich, Matt and Eric. In addition myself and kennydoe are not eligible. See raffle page for member requirements.

Ooooooh, off by one number. Maybe next time. Congrats to the winner, I hope you enjoy it. I just recently felt the back of a neck crafted by the J Craft team and they feel sweeeeeet.

(I think they're made by Team J Craft [err whatever you call it,] right?)

Congratulations Airguitar!

That was one helluva cool writing contest! I liked it very much, even without winning anything :lol:

Thanks to all organizers, you did a really good job, especially considering it was the first contest around here *g*

I'm not gonna go that far but it was definitely fun even if I didn't win.
Absolutely, and i can't wait for the next one. I could almost feel that universe as it came out of it's case.

Big congrats to the guy that won. If anybody else was going to win, i really wanted it to be someone who didn't have on and had little prospect of getting one any time soon. I just hope that that doesn't jeapordise the the chances of another Brit winning next time.

Still, that gives me the green light to get my j-custom 7.

that's the oldest scam in the book! even if she's good to you now, just wait till that ring goes on her finger. ooh boy. they change, my man. suddenly it's "wasting money" on guitars, etc. and that ring on your finger - you can feel it get tighter every day.

(i jest. marriage has opened me up to a whole new world of guitar purchasing opportunities.)

I just want to go on record as saying that I'm so totally in love with my girlfriend and she's the most wonderful woman I've ever had the pleasure to be with. For me there is no other.
