The first Lend-Lease raffle to bring Tim/Flying Helmut to Origins in 2020 has ended. Thanks to all of you who supported it by buying tickets. I imagine that the Herr Oberst will draw the winning ticket in the next couple of days, and as soon as I have that information, I will let the winner and everyone else know:)
Once we get the new Ground Crew medals up and going I will issue those to all who participated.
The second raffle will kick off at the beginning of January:sAprvd:
All the best,
Matt
Good luck to everyone! Hope I have the Golden Ticket! ;)
Good luck to all.
Good luck to all who participated.
Looking for a miracle. :please:
Fingers crossed... it’s a very pretty balloon
A great prize for man even greater cause.
I add my thanks to all those who participated and the organizers.
Rob.
Me 'n all! :thankyou:
Thanks Matt, good luck all. ;)
Another Nightbomber's hopeless raffle it will be. :brickwal:
I'm with you Andy, haven't won one yet and don't expect to. The win for me is getting to see Tim at Origins!Quote:

Supporting the Lend-Lease process, and getting fellow enthusiasts together across an ocean, or two? Priceless!
Well said Mike! :sAprvd:
Giving somebody a chance to celebrate their love for the game with others is more important than anything else.
;)I am not sure about it.Quote:

In the year 2000 I was passing by a lottery point in a local mall. Decided to try my luck. Bought a ticket with one set of 6 random digits out of 49.
Got 5 of those 6. Won 5.000 PLN, which was roughly equal to 1.000 GBP.;)
Best way to treat good luck Andy.Quote:

Good Luck everyone. I have my fingers crossed, but for those of us who don't win, its all for a good cause and I'm sure there'll be another raffle along shortly.
Just remember, mathematics don't care about history. Whether or not you've won, the odds of you winning this time are still (# tickets you buy)/(total number of raffle tickets bought).
And whatever the outcome, the real winner is Tim, for getting to go to Origins, and the rest of the community, for coming together to get Tim to Origins.
Well, Tim gets a big part of the prize. However, the people who go to the convention and meet the L-L pilot win, too. Having met Tim in Prague, I'd as soon live a lot closer, so as to be able to spend time with him more often. IMHO, Origins participants will be winners getting to meet him, too.Quote:

No argument here; indeed, in my mind,I had folded this aspect into the "community coming together" to get him there gestalt.Quote:
