My concern is that I do a re-draw only to have another 5 people not claim. So I do another, and another, until I finally hit 5 or so folks who are intereted in the prize who read the news section.

I am working on an addition here that will notify you when you hit the site if you are holding a ticket as this is just getting silly =/

So how many of these tickets were claimed? I was just kind of curious.

How about you activate tickets 72 hrs before the drawing, tickets get assigned the day of, and then you roll from that pool :idea:

2 have been claimed. The previous winner who also had gotten 2 tickets decided to pass on their winning tickets. So 4 left 'unclaimed'.

I will roll the other 4 over into April and draw even more numbers.

I'll have to decide what to give away. Maybe just $50 Amazon gift certs or something. I'll figure it out ;p

Nooo, I'll have just about zero tickets on the April draw, because I've been playing the contest realm all this month, and I had over 100 tickets in the March draw :( Oh well, that's life, I guess - I'll have to get back to censusing in April and see if I can finally hit lucky in the May draw ;)

Same as all my character names - plugged suitable words into an online Gaelic dictionary until I found a translation I liked :) I grew up in the Scottish Highlands so I'm used to seeing Gaelic names around, and figured it was a decent way to make up names as very few people would know how they came about.

Sgoildubh should really be two words: sgoil (school, pronounced "skol") and dubh (black, "doo"), "black school", otherwise "magic" - there were other words for magic which were more suitable in literal meaning (as I play her as a good mage not an evil one), but I just liked this one and figured most people wouldn't know the exact meaning ;)

Well, as for the site and its contributions, I stopped contributing due to what appears to be a lack of interest on Rollies part. Known issues with C+, known issues with IP ranges showing from wrong countries, etc.

The main website looks more and more like an ad-hosting site rather than what it was intended for.

I would start contributing again if C+ was fixed at least to a point where its not an annoyance to have installed. Something about constantly having the guild window popup gets irritating over time.

Sorry... I should have read what I wrote before clicking submit. I have respect for Rollie and understand that he has a bunch of projects he works on. So the first part should have read:

Can someone please explain to me why it is necessary to bump a two years old thread?
