Hello and welcome to my second big free clix gala drawing event!
This time around there is even more excitement because we will be drawing for not 1, but 3 lucky winners!
To remind everyone how it goes, names are put in to a hat (with people who have multiple tickets getting their name in multiple times), and a winner is drawn.
As soon as we have a winner, any extra tickets he had in the hat are removed (upping the winning chances of everyone left), and the names are mixed up again and there is another drawing. Wash and repeat.
For this drawing we have a very special celebrity guest, but he has asked to remain anonymous as he doesn't want to make a big thing about his charity work.
So all that remains is to wish everyone good luck, and let the drawing commence!

And the first name out of the hat, and first place winner is... (http://www.hcrealms.com/forum/album.php?albumid=391&pictureid=13912)
Congratulations! I'd guess about now you're cursing the fact that we fell 5 tickets short of making your prize a full case :cool:
Ok, extra tickets have been removed and here we go for second place.
And the winner is... (http://www.hcrealms.com/forum/album.php?albumid=391&pictureid=13913)
Oh man! I can tell I am going to need a disclaimer for that one.
Ok, that's a whole bunch of extra tickets removed, the odds of everyone left has went up dramatically!
And the third and last brick winner is... (http://www.hcrealms.com/forum/album.php?albumid=391&pictureid=13914)
Yes folks, that is a name. I didn't just fall asleep on the keyboard from excitement :grin:
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Well I am about to go 'hang around' with our celeb guest and his lovely wife, but I'd like to take a moment to thank everyone who took part and made this such a fun event.
If you did not win anything tonight, worry not. I already have another sale in the pipes, and it is going to be so generous that it makes this draw look like selfish hobos fighting over a sandwich. I will not be happy until there is spontaneous dancing across the realms.
I have not yet begun to give!
PS - The more observant of you might recognize our #2 prize winner as, dum dum dummm, our WoS case winner from the last sale!
As soon as he started buying up clix from this new sale I knew there was this chance, so let me try and set minds at rest.
1) No credit was transferred from the last sale, all his tickets were earned for this new sale.
2) Until he bid in my first sale I had never even seen the guy post, and maintain no relationship with him outside of these sales. In fact he's in a whole different country.
3) Lastly, and majorly, our repeat winner likes tickets. A LOT. He literally had a third of the tickets in the first sale, and almost a quarter of the tickets in this sale.
While winner #2 certainly stacked the deck with all his purchases, I hope our #3 winner won't mind me saying that he won a prize with a mere 2 tickets. :)
