Who controls the lego draw
Who writes nonsense and lots more
WE DO... WE DO

Who will win not one prize
Who will type with tired eyes
WE DO... WE DO

Who wants to win a mystery box
Who thinks it contains new socks
WE DO... WE DO..

My apologies for the above.. I may have started on the cider.

Same here, but with the exact same hot faux leather office chair instead. You're not alone...

Yours definitely sounds more comfortable. Though possibly more sticky.

You do realise that it's not that sticky if you are wearing clothes, right ;-0

Ticket 1678 @legogal‌ wins #2853590 Chrome Stormtrooper

Awesome prize @legogal‌ well done :)

Ryanplugs

@legogal shiny! Congratulations.

I'm not convinced about the whole conspiracy thing myself; the Brickset logo only has 3 elements rather than the standard 5.....or is that 4, it's late.....

Does this mean the palace cinema is still up for grabs ;) ?

Yes, to everyone but 'sadrobot' I think ... they burnt that bridge ...

:) lol. sorry, I'm late to the game - just signed up tonight and thought I'd have a better chance of winning if I was a member. It seems about 80% of the 7000 or so tickets sold have gone to board members. I'm just probably miffed. :)

I do not want to sound rude or start any argument here but have you thought about the fact forum members spend more time on here and more than likely bought more tickets as they are fully aware and updated on a regular basis about Fairy Bricks great work ?

Oh, is that what he meant by board members? I thought there was some sort of secret enclave of them wearing suits and using mahogany furniture and stuff...

Sorry, yes, 'board members' as in 'bulletin board members' - I'm kickin' it old skool. :)
No no no, you're all right. I've only just visited the board forum these past two days. I've been aware of Fairy Bricks before now, just not been here before, and rightfully so I'm sure a lot of members bought more tickets than their facebook or twitter followers. I just felt that if you shouted the loudest on the forum, you're more likely to win something. (That's how it seems!)
It's been great reading all the posts these past couple of nights. You're a good bunch of people and well done to all who won!

Sorry. I'll get my coat. I don't want to start off on the wrong foot.

SirKevbags said:

Right a couple of things.

Yes board members have won far more prizes than non members. Its simple because they buy far more tickets. I've not ran the numbers but you're looking at 90% if I had to take a guess and some of the entries are huge.

All winners will be emailed on Monday. This would ideally happen tomorrow but Yorbrix awaits.

Now lets get back to prizes!

Makes sense!! and I can truly imagine many have spent some ££ and not for the prizes but to support the charity.

Not many have said the total they spent on tickets... I work in the gambling industry deal with those complaints all the time... what is expected when someone max'es there bingo tickets and others buy 1 card... the 1 card players moan same people winning when really it's just logic I suppose :)

I think people need to remember the amount of support, planning, and hours @SirKevbags‌ has put into this, for our pleasure, entertainment and for the overwhelming love and support the charity is able to bring to others. For this I truly thank you :)

I find it funny, when i click 'like' (on zero) and it suddenly says '8 likes'.

I didn't know I had such a pleasing thumb.

TheOneVeyronian

No need for samiam391 to chrome that prize for you I guess! Great prize @legogal

@legomatt‌ deep in the hidden depths of Brickset towers a secret and shadowy organisation meet fortnightly, around 7.30. There the sinister figures of the Brickset website plot to maintain control of the Lego corporation, fix lego ideas results, ensure that megabloks stay awful and that the cupboard is well stocked with tea and biscuits. Headed by a mysterious figure known only as Huw with his right hand men the dastardly Bluemoose and cunning DrDaveWatford. They plot not only for lego domination, but global as well! For they are the illuminati-brick! And to be feared!

She's my partner in crime who doesn't have internet so I had to call her when she won and she swapped the spaceship for a keyring

That's why I stay silent just here to support charity n maybe win something for my growing collection :-)

Oh come on, only a few prizes left surely I've got to win something. Two years of nothing!

LostInTranslation

@sadrobot, don't go, stay and embrace the raffle insanity! I'm sure no one took offence. We forum members are just proud of what an amazing charity @SirKevbags, @cheshirecat and @jujem71‌ have built up over the last few years before our very eyes!

I wish! :oP

Don't worry about it. People are on the forum 'live' now cos' they knew the raffle was happening, and it's a blast to watch unfold. It doesn't have any influence of chances. It's a pure raffle, tickets by numbers bought.

The one who swapped the spaceship for the flashlight. Amiright?

(And stop quoting this comment string - I get notified every time. It's like being @samiam391‌!)

[Edit}:Late again...

Legonizer

I was under the impression that each time you hit f5, you get another ticket in the drawing. that's why people keep refreshing, right?

Lobot

My final F5 of the night, it's been fun but it's waaaay beyond my bedtime!! Thanks to Kev for a great 48 hours, we must do it all again next year.
