The not-so-gigantic ink giveaway is over and the winner has been decided. I’m not going to tell you till I go over how the choice was made. This is a blatant attempt to increase the anticipation and totally ignores the fact you can skip ahead a few lines and find out.
I went through the comments and removed my responses. In one case someone had two comments but the second one was more in keeping with my loose requirements so I removed the first. That gave me 29 people who entered and could win. I then went to a random number generator site and set the range from 1 to 29 and generated said random number. That number was 6. I wonder if I can be more verbose about this simple procedure?
Anyway, click on the scan at the left to enlarge it and see the order and names. The winner (and I know you’ve just skipped to this part to find out) was
Pennednpapered. Congratulations (but not a big one since this is only a bottle of ink and not the lottery)!
I was really happy to see many people I don’t know enter and write a bit about ink. Thanks to everyone who took the time to come over here to try their luck. I liked this so much that maybe I’ll do this again in a month or so. I do have this bottle of Omas ink that I’m not fond of and never used beyond a test and…
argggh, missed me by one….
methinks you wanted to find out who reads your blog so you cooked up this raffle…
Hazel: Just because someone entered doesn’t mean they read this stuff. It was interesting to see who gave it a shot I don’t know and I don’t know the winner at all.
congratulations to pennedandpapered! 🙂
So what if the drawing was to find out if people read the blog? What a delightful way to play!
Both writer and reader enjoy the game.
I’ll look forward to the next one.
Love and Light,
Pat
Pat: I really had no ulterior motive for the giveaway. I just won something on another blog and I thought I’d do it as well. 🙂
Bah, I lose again. Oh well. the order I mentioned arrived and included a green ink, Diamine “Old English” Emerald, and I must say I do like writing in green.
congratulations pennedandpapered:)
Steve: Sorry you didn’t win but I may be giving away another bottle of ink in a bit.
Will it be pink ink? :))
Probably not. Sorry. 🙁
