    Please clarify. Is it going to be numbers given in order based on when you arrive in line and run like the cellar sale now?

    Thanks VAV

    Jagen is correct. Your number only matters if it's pulled.

    hopefully everyone will be able to get in the door before you start pulling numbers :stuck_out_tongue:

    While he's done that in the past (sexist!), Vav may treat these bottles differently this time around. From earlier in the thread:

    bear in mind vav said earlier in the thread that it's dependent on 1) IF they get it in and 2) HOW MUCH they get in - if the rumours about low yields on cherry are true, i wouldn't be surprised if cherry became a raffle item.

    Cherry will indeed be a drawing item.

    Well that's good news. If I miss out I can't complain since I had some today. Wild day. Six am. 1 pm session. Fuck.

    My questions are two. One; If, for example, my number is drawn for the first bottle of 2009 BCBS, I buy it...my number then gets put back in the hat so that I could possibly win a second 2009 BCBS? and Two; how will you prevent people from getting multiple tickets so that they have many chances to win bottles?

    Just as heads up: If you're caught breaking the rules, you'll be asked to leave. Also, Bastinado.

    And for clarification, YES, all numbers go back in the hat after being pulled, so in theory one person could walk away with everything, though the odds are astronomical.

    I answered your question in the RB thread already, AND prempted you with my reply above, figuring you'd post here.

    I'm like a freakin' svenjolly.

    Just clearing my mind up here, Vav you are going to be pulling earlier but the doors still open at 9am. It really doesn't matter what time you start waiting as long as you are in the door with your number in hand when you start pulling you should be good.

    You are planning on pulling bottles before 10am for those who are going across the street.

    I have read through the thread but just want to be sure i am reading everything and understanding it all.

    Doors open at 9. I'll start pulling once everyone has their number. I'll try to do at least one of every bottle BEFORE 10 so those with 10am GI Tix have a shot.

    I'm a little confused on the process - so the numbers are going back into the hat after they're pulled?

    Right, but it will be a different hat each time. The first hat will be a fez, the second a fedora, then a bowler, etc....
