Brickset Bonfire Night Bonus Ball Bonanza - UK Lottery Draw 5th November 2016

To give @bendybadger some more time off, and also with a wonderful bunch of polybags donated by @SumoLego for quite a few forthcoming prize draws, here we go again for the next one.

If any new people have recently joined and wonder what this is, it's simple. Answer a stupid question, and get a number based on your post in order between 1 and 59 for the UK national lottery bonus ball.  If your number gets drawn on Saturday night you win the prize.  If you don't make the first 59 replies, well there's always next week to be a little quicker.

So, this week, courtesy of @SumoLego donations you'll be playing for a #5002145 Rocket Racoon. A very nice polybag I think you'll agree - though it will be amusing if he wins it back ;-)

This week's question is all about choices. What choice would put you in a real quandry? What would be difficult for you to decide if you really had to?

Your reply can be funny, a real story of a choice you had to make, hypothetical or whatever. Just post it and get yourself a number. Try and be a bit more creative than "Sandcrawler or Ewok Village" though ;-)

For me, the question would be "Chocolate or cheese?" If I was told I could only eat one of these for the rest of my life and not the other, that would be a real toughie.

flord

Roast turkey, or pizza?

donutboy

Music, or movies?

Coolguy5000

To be, or not to be

princedraven

'Money or Family' was my big one recently.
I decided family, quit my career that I had been doing for 20 years plus and took a local job on 1/3rd of my wages, so that I could actually see my family more than the half an hour a day I used to get.

Perijove

Faster, better, cheaper.  When building spacecraft, you want all three, but can usually only choose two. 

Legogram

Wow, @Prince Draven and I have the same response....Family or money
I left my position of 21 years, to be able to spend time with my family.  I know I won't find the same pay, but the time spent with loved ones is a far greater treasure.

JudgeChuck

Hillary or Donald?

I'm glad that's a choice I'll never be asked to make!

;-)

Bumblepants

videogame vs boardgames

khmellymel

Travel or Lego

I'm constantly going back and forth between the two!

catwrangler

Start on the international Christmas post so it can go by surface mail, or finally take the Hallowe'en decorations down? 

Bricklover18

To live far away or close to home?

steinbrique

Settle down  in a place or  keep travelling ?

Recently choose the first one , will see what happen

stlux

Live close(ish) to work or spend 3x less on housing but longer commute.

Have prioritized living close(ish) to work for the past 10 years, as my time is valuable too.

leetshoe

Lego or video games?

caterham7

Lemon or Lime?

bendybadger

Thanks @iso3200 for giving me an extended break and thanks to you all for your good wishes whilst I have been away.  Shows what a great community we have here.

my choice that would put me in a quandary  znap or galidor? Or maybe red pill vs blue pill

no chance of @SumoLego winning his own prize as he is always late or has his tardiness improved lately?

MAGNINOMINISUMBRA

The truth or what they want hear - most people don't want what they think they do!

SprinkleOtter

LEGO or Megabloks?


Said noone ever...

MaffyD

To have the internet whenever you wanted, but only able to access the top 10 sites, or complete internet freedom for only 10 minutes a day.

Bricklunch

A life jacket or my insulin if on a sinking ship.

Lego_Star

Honestly?

What LEGO to buy tomorrow? ;o)

(And it's not the first time I don't know what to choose either and unlikely to be the last, at least a few more days like that between now and Christmas I expect.)

SirBen

Creamy or Crunchy.

Both have an appropriate place in the world of peanut butter!

theLEGOman

Unlimited 3g data or 12gb 4g a month.

Still not sure about changing.

bandit778

More free time but less things to keep me occupied, or enjoy more of everything and not stop.

thebeermonkey

Biscuit or cake. 

historyman

Pasta or potatoes

jmeninno

Hmmm...how about not seeing the Lego Batman movie or seeing it but having to sit through listening to crappy Michael Cera voice Robin the entire time...don't worry, I can set aside my vendetta with Mr. Cera for the greater good...at least, I think I can...

tof

Cheesecake or white chocolate

SithLord196

Watching the Indianapolis 500 vs. anything else that might be super important (ie birthdays, weddings, etc.)

ricecake

C# or Java

TheOriginalSimonB

Daddy or chips?


Actually, today I had to choose where to take MrsB for lunch as it is our 21St wedding anniversary. 

SeijiAmasawa

Today was the Cubs parade and rally. I thought about calling in sick to go to Wrigley but was responsible and now at work.
I hope it won't be another 108 years before another World Series win.

LuLego

Marriage or another set?

gratefulnat

LEGOit or LEPINit

sukh

Seafood or Steak? Already asked the waiter to come back in 5 minutes three times!

Covi

Bicycling or running...always my quander when I want to do some sport after work. Running is more efficient but you see always the same area.

Lobot

Do we move house next year?

Current modern house in magnolia, nice size, reasonable location or... New house, in magnolia, smaller &  considerably more expensive, but great location?

paul_merton

Stay at work or go freelance.
(an as-yet unresolved several-year-old quandary)

carnage717

Legos or Hot Wheels

BoomDiggity

If I was offered a lot of money to work out of the country for the rest of my life.

woony2

Red or white wine. Normally its seasonal so white in summer red in winter, but don't know which I'd choose if I could only have one.

Salamalex

Blue flowers, purple velvet, valentine roses, pink suede? Aka - which Docs to wear. 

Renegade007cjh

Chores or a lie-in at the weekend... unfortunately we don't always get what we want :(

HangedSanchez

My next holiday has got me stumped at the moment. Central Asia next year, or save up for a few months in Japan for the Olympics..?

or take the third option: don't go on holiday at all and spend all the money on Lego instead!

GallardoLU

should I sell a valuable set I've had for a very long time (to pay for car repairs), or start riding my bike to work instead of fixing the car....

msanders

Recently for me it was UK vs Switzerland. Got a great job offer in Switzerland which was also great for our family. However, away from friends and the relatives in the UK. Happy we chose Switzerland but we do miss the UK. We'll have one new addition to our Swiss Sanders family in April so it's definitely been great!

Yodalicious

Hmm. How do I answer this? So many ideas. I just can't decide. 

ecmo47

Character issues or criminal behavior? 

eggshen

Guiness or Unibroue Maudite. I don't know if I could give either of those up.

dspigel

Who do I greet first when I come home from work? My dogs who always happy to see me or my wife. Who I could have inadvertently upset for some reason while I was away.
