    So how are we doing it? random draw, or just using the numbers from the top post on this page? Doubling up on each number? We might be short a couple to do that, but I'm betting we can work that out...

    It's a random draw.

    If anyone wants to split the double, I'll take your other spot. I'm assuming @Houser would draw twice for a double up.

    i dont quite understand what youre saying here, but i am open to suggestions on how to get everyone involved if you want.

    maybe run the random order generator twice with 2 people on both lists, lets say me and someone else? that way if you lose both times, you send 2 boxes, while everyone else still sends 1*. im open to other ideas. obviously this needs to be figured out quickly, so let me know gentlemen.

    *for my idea, 1st and 2nd both times dont send boxes, so that leaves 10 boxes to go out: 4 boxes to each winner and 1 box to each place. or i can do winners take all, 6 boxes each.

    I like 1 and 2 don't send. We run the numbers twice, cool.

    I can go on both lists for 2 bottles with you houser...

    That means 12 boxes ship! 5 to wiiner and 1 to place, or 4/2...

    Thinking about this a little more I think @Dave_Treat meant since we have 14 people and 7 horses, two draws could be done. Unfortunately 7 horses isn't guaranteed. Think of it as two separate contests basically.

    Not sure if that's too difficult to work that out in so short of a time period.

    In that case we'd need two more people, or two people who want to enter twice.
