Guillermo Salas!

So how did I do the ticket raffle? Very sophisticated process…

1.) As each comment came in I added those tickets numbers to the pool. For example, the first comment was a twitter, so that person got tickets 1-10

2.) Opened up Excel and ran =RANDOMBETWEEN(1, 400) which yielded => 24

So that lands on the third comment which is Guillermo’s blog post!

Thanks everyone for participating – I liked this format and will be sure to be doing it again as soon as possible!
