Congrats to the winners and to the artist's generosity in giving his works to fans. As usual, I missed by one number. "Music gives a soul to the universe, wings to the mind, flight to the imagination and life to everything." --Plato

Ouch, well I guess thats the beauty of a contest like this, wether the number was 1 off or 75, everyone had the same 1 in 35 chances to win something. | |

XrayTed said: Ok the winnners are in, this is how I did it. A few days ago I wnt look for some method of picking numners, I was thinking of one of those ping pong ball rolling cages, but I went into sticker shock with the prices of those [$40+]. So I wnt to a dollar store and went looking for something with a bunch of small parts/pieces, was about to give up when I walked by the toy section and saw the puzzles.
That'll do, so I got a 200 piece puzzle and numbered 105 pieces, I put them in a bag, blindfolded my girl [mom forbid me to post pics of the girls, had to honor that] ... Anyhow she picked 3rd place first, second and first.
so the winners are:
3rd place LED/plexi memorial #42 Kaine
2nd place small wood memorial #9 Perfume
1st place, large purple memorial #23 OzlemUcucu
I invite winners to pm me with shipping info, will try to get them out early this week, thanks for playin.

BTW, here is the list for anyone who entered but hasn't seen it. Actually a pretty good way to run an online raffle, if I ever do it again anyhwere else I don't see the need to change anything.

Thank you so much for doing this. It was a really good idea and I appreciated the opportunity to play along. Have a good day! It's a hurtful place, the world, in and of itself. We don't need to add to it. We all need one another. ~ PRN | |

Pleasure was mine airth, was enoyable for me and the girls, glad you guys like it too. As you might imagine, I have a side business doing things like this, memorials are a decent % of the things I do, and it is fitting that I did some for Prince and give some to fans. Along with selling, I have given many things to friends/family/charity and will continue to do so. I have 3 more different designs [not wood], I'll post those when I can. I can tell you they are nothing like you've ever seen.
So far only oz has responded, no rush though, should wait at least a week then the prize would go to the next number up next SAT. Maybe luv can send them a PM, I'm not much of a pm kind of guy unless it is respondng to them. [Edited 5/8/16 6:53am] | |

This forum has been bombed by threads recently, for an obvious reason, so its perfectly understandable that people don't follow an older thread like this, and of course we all have many other things going on in our day to day lives besides http. So that leaves Kaine and he's got 2 days, don't mean to be a jerk but I want this prize to go to someone here and don't want the situation to be left hanging indefinitely. | |
