Got a Bly. This is my first raffle win for a clone trooper. I'm keeping my fingers crossed for a Cody tomorrow.

I lost too - those that won - what's your zip code?

Freaked Out
I'm in CA and lost.
I won Bly and I am in Tennessee.
On the Neyo raffle, it was determined it was done by zip code. Of all the people that won, all the winners lived within certain zip codes in the north east. This time it looks like it was done by state starting at the bottom of the alphabet. Here are the states that I have seen the only winners in from Rebelscum.
Tennessee
Virginia
Wisconsin
Florida
Texas
Washington
Rhode Island
Pennsylvania

Kinda defeats the whole purpose of a random drawing doesn't it
It's all just people assuming how the drawings work. I will say the Neyo raffle looked rather odd, but this one doesn't yet. Florida is out of place on that list so I don't think it was "Start at the end of the alphabet and go backwards".
Well, they basically admitted the Neyo raffle wasn't random even though they would not say it. They insisted that it was random because they "sorted" the list using certain criteria before they chose the winners. The fact that they "sorted" anything means that it was not random.
In the Neyo raffle, it just happens that they sorted by zip code. It looks like they sorted by state this time and went from the bottom up. I will admit that Florida does not fit, but there was only one person from Florida on the list at Rebelscum who won. The majority of all the other winners were from Virginia, Tennessee and Wisconsin. You have to admit that is a pattern.
Lost. BIG SURPRISE.

This is the main reason I refused to pay for a "premium" membership. The more I thought about these raffles, the more I realize how much of a rip-off they are. The exclusives for the free ordering were nice, but not essential. This changed when they started charging 50 a pop for a "chance" to win. Why? Commanders command more scratch. They claimed that they changed the random e-mails and start times because everyone complained. Well, I could handle missing a chance to order online ... that's a true "luck of the draw." But, if they really are seaparating entries before drawing ... by any criteria, it's not random, and they are denying people what they paid for: i.e. a true random lottery. Do you think people would be okay with it if these state lotteries pre-screened by zipcodes or street names or some criteria before hand? I still love their products, but I will never fall for this con.

No love for the west coast, again.
Winner region, Neyo was east,Bly seems mid-west, maybe Bacarra will be....WEST? Let Cody go to the North.

Ha Ha...
They only like scalpers/flippers. Maybe I should have called them and told them I had plans of scalping the bust on ebay just so I could have won
