This is not true, larger/longer names require more ink which in turn makes the paper heavier increasing its chances to settle at the bottom of said container. With the likely hood of Ryno just reaching in and taking from the top, names that are smaller/shorter have a better chance of winning.

Unless I pick from the bottom.

Or if I pick from both.

Or if I pick from the middle.

...Ok its the morning of the 9th in Bahrain ...DO THE DRAWING!!!!!!! lol

If we're HONESTLY worried about fairness, ink weight, and what not....The numbers are 1-28 now, right?

Log in, /1-28. Ta-da. :3

I hasta bring it up, but in de tradition of de trollish people it actually pronounced Ketchya*wide wide wiiiiiiiide space*eatcha thus it should actually be on two separate pieces of papa

Haha nice try

Well... three if ya include de space

But is the space you?
*Sagenod*

That said, each letter of 'Saturo' is a name of it's own. Thus, I deserve seven pieces of paper. It makes sense.

sure i wish everyone luck and would be ok if i didnt mke it. but that sure as hell dont mean that i dont want it to happen to me. Ill be hoping like a SOB i make it

the anticipation waiting for the 9th...

You should throw my name in there, just to mess with people. And if I get picked, I can make those who didn't win dance for the spot. Dance! Mwahahaha! Their foolish fate would lie in my hands!

...

You don't have to put my name in...

I could soo see you doing that Azu lol. Well good luck to everyone today!

but Sasrei is 6 letters so thats six for me, oh and you can use Saon as well so thats an added 4, and Inaric is also six

LOL! If people's alts got tossed into the mix... Oh man, I shudder to think of how much paper that would take!

*Has three almost full accounts*
I think I'd win...

Well I have like twenty nicknames on here, so if we go by THAT logic I should be Velkynkarma, Vel, Velk, Velkyn, Karma, and Taigi, and probably a few more I'm forgetting, depending on who you talk to

(In all seriousness I think Azu's 1-28 /roll idea is a pretty good one)

~VelkynKarma

The roll idea makes the most sense to me as well. Leaves out human error/tendencies.

The only problem with that rolling is that everyone would have to be on at the exact same time. Thats 28 people who are rolling so it may be difficult to have everyone on at the same time.

I think rather Ryno posts a numbered list of everyone here, and then goes in-game and rolls, you'd only need nother person there to look, or none if he takes screenies.
