would love to get in on the action: 18mk4ys31TJuaDhLfr1zM4mpfBYxfzgemx

how long does my address stay in the hat for drawings?

Indefinitely... This lotto has been going since Sept. or Oct., and so some of the first to join are certainly not newbs anymore. But I want to give everyone a good chance to win at least once. I was thinking that at some point in the future I might start taking names off the front of the list as new names are added to the end.
As always any suggestions are welcome.

You could top it at 1000 before replacing.
With 6 users added daily it could mean half year ticket.

I was thinking that half a year would be a good cut-off point as well. We are getting close to that with the lotto already.
The lotto was officially started on Nov. 10th of last year but some of the first entries were from members who had been
on the forum for a couple months (which is where the "Sept. or Oct." came from in my last post on this ). So 500 might
be a better upper-limit number since we are only at 343 right now, with your addition to the lotto database. Having a
1 in 500 chance of winning every day for six months, or so, and with a mix of more recent newbs than members who are
moving on to become established on the forum, is probably not a bad balance. What does everybody think?
