What thread announces the prize draw winners?

[Connor]

Sorry, new to the site. I'm just wondering where you find out who the lucky guy/girl is?

 

Many thanks

When each prize draw is drawn it will show automatically in the prize draw, please see the three different sections near the bottom of this page, if you then click on a completed prize draw you can see. As long as the user the system chooses is eligible to win, e.g. if it is a draw for premium members only and the winner chosen still has premium membership at the time of the draw, as per the terms, then they they are the winner

We will also post the winners in the topics here:

Sorry, I'm probably being a bit thick, what does it mean when a prize draw expires? I take it there isn't always a winner picked?

Expired means that the draw is closed for entry, but the winner has not been drawn yet.

After we draw the winner and post in the forum section as outlined above in my previous post, the status of that draw will also change to 'completed'

Every Prize Draw that there is, will always been drawn. It is just that we haven't pressed the button in the Admin section to draw the winner, and posted the winner in the relevant topic yet. This will likely be done for the current expired prize draws sometime tomorrow (Monday 2nd November)
