I'm digging the shark that's part of the Deep Sea sets this year.

The eagle creator from a few years back.  Love those Eagles.  I'm also too late.  But I love Eagles.

The flamingo monthly build!  Thanks for sponsoring this!

Also, the peacock that was the 4th model from #31031 - really like that one as well.

Anybody know what time the draw is?

LostInTranslation

It will be about 20.50-55 BST. So about 45 mins time.

Live from the lotto draw.... the bonus ball is number 44!

LostInTranslation

Switched on to watch the draw and caught the end of the awful In It To Win It quiz.  Moron in the final got the following question wrong (at a cost of £15,000): Which of the following herbs also is a word meaning 'wise': 
a)  sage 
b)  basil 
c)  tarragon 

He said basil because Basil Brush is a fox and foxes are clever...... :-((

Anyway, @ecmo47,  the bonus ball is 44 so the winner is @alldarker. 
Congratulations! And thanks for running the contest! 

Ah @Lego_Star beat me to posting the news because I was too busy ranting ;-) 

ecmo47

Congratulations to Alldarker! Hope you all had fun. 

alldarker

Cool, I won!!! Thanks, Ecmo47, for organizing the give-away: very kind of you!

legomatt

...I hoped this would be caught before the list was created, but it wasn't.

Is there any chance that EddieDoesntMind could be given a prize? GothamConstructionCo got counted twice, due to the penguin picture joke. Had Gotham not been included twice, Eddie would've been number 44.

alldarker

I see the problem with the list: the fact that GothamConstructionCo appears on it twice. It's totally fine by me if EddieDoesntMind gets the prize. I've already won the recent extra Euro-raffle BendyBadger did before he went on his holiday, so I don't mind passing on the prize to the 'actual' nr. 44 at all; fair's fair after all.

EddieDoesntMind

Wow, to think I was just thinking that my number was so close. I would like to thank Ecmo47 for the contest, legomatt for noticing the mistake, and alldarker for being such a good sport!

ecmo47

So much for making and list and checking it twice! Thanks to all for pointing out the mistake and being good sports about it. Eddie and Alldarker, both please PM me your addresses. Eddie will get the Year of the Sheep but I'll get a nice poly to alldarker. How about a Joker bumper car? 

GothamConstructionCo

@ecmo47, as its kinda my fault I'm more than happy to send @alldarker a Joker poly if he can PM his address.

legomatt

Very sporting all. With my particular apologies to @alldarker, as the pre-'stewards inquiry' winner - I hoped to quickly check the list before the draw happened, or post a just-in-case reminder once all places had filled, but I missed the window and everything had already happened. 

alldarker

No need for anyone to apologize for anything. You are all superbly nice, and you're practically embarrasing me!

snowhitie

^ all of these comments are why I love the Brickset community!

Lego_Star

^ Precisely! :)

SumoLego

So... who is going to volunteer a Bat-Pod for the next raffle?

ecmo47

^YOU!!!

SumoLego

Uh, yeah.  It's being shipped to me with my exclusive Boba Fett white rangefinder, Creator Golden Gate Bridge, UCS MF re-release and a second surprise Winter Village set for 2015.

And delivered on a magic unicorn that craps rainbow taffy.

(I just posted a John Denver clip in another thread.  I am enduring a too-much positivity hangover right now...)

SumoLego

^ I'm going to take some basily advice and go to bed.

EddieDoesntMind

Guess what came today, woop woop! I would like to thank @ecmo47 and @alldarker once again!

iso3200

^Nice prize!

What on earth is "includes packet"?

Read before elsewhere on the site that in some countries where this set was available, it's traditional to give money as a gift on NYE, and the packet is included to put some in :)

paul_merton

^ Some Chinese lunar new year tradition. It's included with the set so you can put money in it and give it to someone.

BrickDancer

Oh yes the lucky red pouches! Brings a smile to every little kid each year like a Christmas Encore, no presents/gifts but just cold hard cash =)

donutboy

Ah yeah. I've heard about that before. Thanks for the info guys.
