I think Jim has decided already. He won't get the last 3 picks overall. He'll get the last 3 picks of the 3 lotteries. Read post #415.

I thought we discussed all this picking last nonsense a while back. It was a pretty unanimous vote (among those that weren't too selfish to cast a vote) that your name should be in the hat with the rest. You're doing too much for this contest! Besides, your money smells the same as everyone else's. So, just put your name in the hat and let fate lead where she wants to go. That's the democratic way and that's how it should be!

To All
Hope your Holidays were everything you were hoping for and finds everyone safe and healthy - ready for a new year and a fun event.

Regards to all

Hi Shawn,

I compared this new zip file to the original zip file and found that there were quite a few tancho no longer in this new zip file? just curious what happened to them?

I had one of my cutomers come in yesterday who had bought 3 shiros from me last year and he brought in some video and photos of when he pulled them up in October. Ill try to upload the video after comprssing it because you can see the koi much better than the photos. The 3 Shiros are all around 18 inches. (notice the tobi hi gone from the head of shiro 1174) enjoy -Shawn

I agree. You should have the same chance the rest of us do. Put your name in.

Ditto's Jim.
You've put plenty into this for ALL of our benefit, and there is absolutely no reason for you to be sucking hind tit on the lottery draw... Get your name in there right along with the rest of us.

that's the way it should be.

let's get it on!

I think the reason behind his choice is commendable as Jim I belive is choosing the numbers, that way no one will be able to call foul......................so get the neighbor kid to pull em and stick yours into the box, hat or what ever.............................................. .........

Jim and onlookers,

I would agree Jim should toss his name in the hat. Have a couple of people with you pulling names while you record the numbers.

Special Note:

If there is still time, I am willing to sacrifice one of my picks if there is anyone on a waiting list in case someone backs out. I have committed to and paid for three koi. I am already soaking in plenty, I don't need three.

If anyone is interested and it doesn't complicate what Jim and Mystic already have in place, let me know.

Sincerely,

The Pond Digger
