May 2024 Lotto Sign-Up Thread

Yakster

Here it is, the thread you've been waiting for. If your on the Good Trader's List, now's your chance. It's that time once again to ante up for the Monthly Lotto. Who's in?

~ Play only if you're willing to win this thing. Even though the draw is random, you may end up winning multiple lotteries. ~

Here's the standard boilerplate:

1. One entry per person; ante is five cigars.
2. You should be on the good trader's list--If you haven't officially "made the list" then let me know and we'll see if you can't get someone to vouch for you.
3. If you want in, type "In" or something similar. I'll periodically update the list so if you think you are in and you're not on the list, make sure I know.
4. I'm not as sharp as I used to be so if you post a witty follow-up after you've already entered for the Lottery I may slip up and add you to the list twice. Just let me know and I'll fix the list.
5. I'll draw at the beginning of the month. You'll need to get a box out to the winner sometime the first few weeks of the month so if you're going to be gone then and won't be able to send them out, make sure you include that information in your first post. Obviously, some of you will have plans and may have to send later than normal. That's no problem - just communicate with the winner.
6. If you win, you need to make sure you post pictures of your winnings in the winner thread so we can track that you received everything. Try to identify who sent you the cigars with their forum name so I can check them off the list.
7. You have to play for yourself. If you want to bomb someone else after you received you winnings, that's up to you but they all come to you.
8. If you don't pay, then you can't play again (that and you'll likely be publicly shamed.)
9. When someone wins, check their bio and if you have something you know they like then try to send that. Otherwise, send what you like and tell them why you like it.
10. I try to do the drawing live on the Zoom vHerf so that I can get some witnesses and we can celebrate the winner and console those who have yet to win.(have a good laugh at the outcome)
11. Have fun

Two days left in the month and only three entrants? Great odds of winning, though.

You should join twice and really up your odds.

First_Warrior

If the purveyor of the Famous Beans is in I'll be in.

Yakster

I'll wait for confirmation from @peter4jc to add you two to the list. I fell asleep at the wheel this month on starting the lotto thread.

Posting in this thread is almost as dangerous as asking about a cigar on vHerf...

I suppose... if Rodger wants me in, then I'm in.

silvermouse

if those two grumpy old men are in I'll join. Where's "Grumpy" Nick?

Yakster

Now we're cooking with gas.

There's a connection between the gas and the oldfarts in there somewhere, I just know there is...

Ok guys, time to step up. I remember when we had 26 forum members playing. The lotto is one of the reasons this place ROCKS.

Yakster

I'm getting ready to jump on vHerf and draw the winner.

dirtdude

I'll get in if it's not too late Chris

Yakster

We have a winner, I'll start a new thread.
