    Yet you had time to type that you should be working :lol:

    I should be fine, at #143 it will be this weekend before my number comes up. It feels like I am in line at the DMV.

    Yep, I'll be editing the list to reflect what's been claimed. I was actually planning on listing what was chosen by each person… do you guys think I should leave that between the winner and the donor?

    I'm giving a 24 hour window to the winners to pick their item, and if they don't respond in that time their spot goes to the next in line. Let me know if you guys think this should be less, because if 14 people on the list don't respond, that'll make the gift selection take 2 weeks. And I'm sure that it could easily be 14 people who don't respond.

    ^ Can you just mark stuff off as claimed, I'd like the 1st post to keep all the pictures for future reference.

    I'll move the claimed items to below the list of winners, and mark them as claimed.

    i think 24 hrs is a tad to long hopefully everyone is paying attention and we can move through this whole list in a week at the longest

    Thanks! For now I think I'm going to leave it at 24 hours and see how it goes. The first 3 of the first 5 winners have replied to me and are on their way to their new toys already. So now begins the first waiting game. Who's gonna be first, missy or Mark? :)

    Same here. Plus that would eliminate any trouble with waiting on people to decide.

    I'm sure it's hard enough to set this up, without us throwing cogs in the system. I'm just happy I made the list, although I feel bad, that I got chosen over a few names I see at the end.

    Yeah, I think it's best to have people choose. Way more chance of people getting something they like vs. something that they really aren't into.

    thanks for all the heard work James. You kept this thing extremely organized. And thanks to everyone that donated. Some awesome stuff was given. I hope this becomes a yearly SB tradition.
