Thank You for this possibility Mr Pass - Events like this really make DIYing something special 😀
Can someone inject me with some sanity? Sometimes my entry appears as post #101, sometimes it doesn't appear at all. User Murdoc sometimes is #99 other times #101.
Ya, I feel like a bonehead for sitting at the gateway, to keep the load down on the server, anyone who did that was out of the running before they started. Anyone that waited as they were told actually get into the first 18 pages? That's the cut-off by the way.
Kudos to Papa and you guys for doing this, but a new thread that couldn't be circumvented would have been the way to go to make it equitable. As it is, it looks like many people just mashed the F5 on the thread and jumped the line.

that was fun! mid-day excitement here at work
Yeah, had to stall an inspector for a few, then we did our thing after my entry. Came back and saw 1370 entries, man!
I had zero issues or lag or anything, server seems robust from here.
Jason, incredible job on the lottery organization! Not a hiccup from the servers! All fluent, and if you waited for the 'distribution page' to send you in, all went perfectly smooth.
A great success. Good luck to everyone that is looking to build this generous offer from Mr. Pass and all the folks at DIYAudio.
Good luck!

Nah. No one would do that in a publicly accessible on-line internet forum because that would be plain silly.
(takes a look...)
Okay. I stand corrected.

But this is not 'first come first served'... there is going to be a lottery to pick the people that are assigned slots, it's not the first 18 pages!Ya, I feel like a bonehead for sitting at the gateway, to keep the load down on the server, anyone who did that was out of the running before they started.

The server held up! 😀
But, now a lot of folks are probably thinking: "nearly 1400 entries... and that's only part 1 of 2... the odds don't seem so great now" lol
@Jason, can you clarify that while those with more history and posts will have more "entries", it's still entirely possible (tho, less likely) for someone with even only 1 "entry" to win?

Mods were busy behind the scenes approving newbie posts. I did about 550, other mods about as many. That was fun!
