Kreindler raffle info, pg 8, post #79, this thread

It just seems that 5 entires per member is a lot in the beginning. You could have 20 members instantly fill up the raffle when there are a lot more people interested in entering.

Charles,
I haven't seen much interest where members want to throw a hundred dollars at the raffle, unless their hiding in the bushes. But remember, the second raffle has a very good chance of going also and I am sure that some members may wish to enter both.
I know everyone wants to be involved, that is why Graig agreed to the second raffle, if enough entries are requested, and we believe there is a good chance. This second raffle will take place immediately after the first. If the second one fills up 5 days after the first, then the second raffle will be about 5 days after the first.
We do want everyone involved, who is interested. But to change the cap this close to Sunday is not going to happen, but this is the last time you will see the cap at 5.

Kind of interesting noit knowing what the pic is...could be pre-war or post-war.
I got a few fav's from either era, of course Hof'ers and rookies. Since we celebrate Hank, that be awesome as well. But i could go for a nice Babe, Cobb or a Shoeless. I also could see favs from football too.
I like to particpate as well.

No problem I was just voicing my opinion and I probably shouldn't have with that atrocious math.

I am all for the program and would like a chance to enter and win and I thank you for your time but

to say it is too late to change on the day you have made changes well...

Jim,
The change you are talking about, did not affect any of the rules already in place. This was an addition which I should of thought about at the beginning.
This is our first raffle of this type, much of the rules is more description on how it is going to work. Any raffles in the future, I should not have to go into describing how we are going to get the numbers, or the "buddy system" and some of the other aspects of how it will run.
But the initial raffle needs all this information.
Jim, please let this happen first, then together, we (meaning you and I), can get this right for future raffles if all goes well.

To All,

Just a friendly reminder, This Sunday, 8PM (EST), the raffle entry process begins.

[T20Brew]

I may have missed it but is the sign up thread for this going to be in the same section on the board as this thread or the main section?

[billyb]

T20,
It will be a separate thread which I will start on the memorabilia side, same location as this one. It will pop in at 8PM (EST) and once its up, the process of the requests for entries then starts. That is when I become a typing machine, and get names placed on a list, which will be on the first page. I will try to get the names up on the list as fast as I can.
Good luck
