Well,since a good number of choice prizes weren't claimed,I'd say the odds are still pretty good a couple will turn up. Just gave up on feelin all tingly about it. Never had that much luck to win something really cool in my life anyway. Save for winning best in class at my 1st car show. I guess I used up all my cool freeby vouchers on that one. :drunk::D

What are the odds that there will be a prize or two lingering for a final draw this evening?

Wow! You did your homework.

According to the Rules, it appears to be up to the winners to contact TxBrew:

" . . Winners will have 24 hours from the time their name is posted to this thread to contact TxBrew via private message or e-mail . . ."

There's still hope.
 
List is getting smaller for sure. I'm sure most will go tonight 'cept for 1 or 2 I don't know. Was a great drawing non the less.

So again, any familiar names yet, or all strangers?

Looks like I won the case of Notty. I do use dry yeast quite a bit, but don't know that I'll use a whole case of it, so I'll be sharing with the local homebrew club.

Imagine the winners were Revvy, LGI, Yooper, Pumbaa, etc. There would be a different outcry.

I don't think of any members here as strangers. Not only have many of these guys posted a lot, they are paying premium members on this forum. They deserve it as much as anyone else. I sense an indignant tone coming from the losers in this thread (except for usfmikeb!)

Doh! You won my Notty! That's ok; I was going to do the same thing if I had won. Very nice of you!

Still rollin' the dice on the keg package.... come on baby; momma needs a draft system..... :ban:
 
Maybe the drawing should be weighted by the number of posts a member has ( except you Revvy...you'll throw off the curve!). Probably won't matter...I guarantee you that the one day I don't log onto HBT will be the day my name gets drawn!

The higher the post count the more bandwith being used, ie costs more money to run th site. So lower post count is a plus... this doesn't take into account bandwith for browsing/lurking.

Sure, I just plotted a line on graph paper... if we all just stop posting and lurking this site will run super-efficiently!!!!

I'm gonna email these important findings to TxBrew right now. :)

I've always said you're a genius!

Edit: Damn, sorry, Tx, I just ate up some of your bandwidth. Oops, I just did it again. Mea Culpa . . .
 
i wonder if by winning in the first drawing (Yey, but its bottle filler and i dont keg so :() i lost my chance for the redraws, probably cuz im still waiting for something good :)
 
I don't think it matters too much at this point man. At least a couple of the names were reqognizable in the re-re-draw. :drunk::mug:
 
I still hold out hope for Monday. But man, all these redraws and still no win for me. Plus I still didn't get that free Stella glass. If my beer didn't turn out well, I'd say I was one unlucky homebrewer.

Luckily my beer turns out well. :)

Congrats to all winners, known and, well, less known.
 
Getting closer to the draft system. Member's name starts out same as my last name.... ;)
 
2 of the 3 havent had any activity since sunday or prior.

looks like these 2 are still up for grabs

I can't believe folks aren't monitoring this to see if they won anything. If only to do a quick check...

If TX sent out emails to notify the winners instead of posting in a thread I bet the prizes would be claimed much faster. More work for him tho.
 
If he even posted the time for the drawings, he might get more people claiming them.

I missed one of the drawings last week and now I don't know when they are doing them at all, since they are already off the original schedule.
