I just wanted to let everyone know that Derek Cummings aka Brassmonkey has been selected as one of the monthly prizewinners on the Venturers site. Every month thru the end of the year we draw five names from our list of members to celebrate our 5 years of being a club. Each winning member receives anything of their choosing for their bikes, up to $200.00 USD, from the club. Derek is our first European member to win. Congratulations my friend!!

Guys,
If I had any control over who the winners are I would have won something myself by now. The actual process of selecting winners is a totally blind one. I generate a fresh member roster on the 'puter. Then I start deleting all the names that are ineligible. The first step is to remove all the registered users since only members of the Venturers are eligible to win. All previous winners are eliminated as well as anyone who is still on their 60 Day Free Trial period. The names of the Host administrators are also deleted. Once all this is done I have a list of eligible members in the drawing, each with an assigned number to their name. I use a random number generator program to select the numbers. After the numbers are drawn, they are checked against the list to see who the lucky winners are. It takes about 45 minutes just to prepare the roster for the drawing.
BTW, Derek hasn't contacted me to confirm his winning. If any of you hear from him, let him know to contact me. If he doesn't get a hold of me before the next drawing he will forfeit his prize. I've had one forfeiture already in the drawings. I hope Derek doesn't make it two.
