Announcing: United Yorkie Rescue (UYR) Fundraising Raffle 2008! - Page 10 - YorkieTalk.com Forums

It hasnt been announced yet. Im would think one night this week.. But I think last years was announced well in advance so maybe it wont be for a little while.

Im sure theyre really busy with the raffle ticket assignments.. a lot of people probably bought on the last day or 2. It must be a long weekend for Admin.

I hope im wrong and youre right about it being 3000ish

As I recall, last year's drawing was done within 3-5 days of the deadline for purchasing tickets. There was advance notice of just a few days.

I feel like that commercial where the lady has her face smushed up against the glass of a store about to have a big sale chanting....open, open, open! lol

I have a mosaic to work on, so someone PLEASE pm me if they announce anything. PLEASE?? I'll turn up my volume on my computer so I'll hear the "ping" that tells me I have a new email.

LOL I remember planning for the last drawing for weeks! I had it in my calendar.

5. Raffle tickets will be sold until March 7, 2008 midnight Pacific time. The winners will be drawn within 5 days of that time. There is no limit to the number of raffle tickets that will be sold. Any tickets purchased after midnight March 7, 2008 will be considered a general donation to YorkieTalk.

Admin wrote that in the original thread on 2/19. I hope they announce the total soon... I feel like i havent been off YT all weekend.

Stay tuned! And THANK YOU to each and every member that purchased a raffle ticket for United Yorkie Rescue!!!

Do you think Superman skipped town?

Is there anyone else waiting for their numbers? I bought two more raffles a couple of days ago for two YT members and those members still have not received their numbers. I sent Admin a note but just wondering if anyone else was waiting. Hey Admin. Not complaining. I know you guys are working hard and are busy. Just checking in to make sure it was not an oversight.

Marina · 07-27-2008, 06:42 PM

LoL

I was thinking maybe they are waiting to receive some checks in the mail. That way they dont have to update the totals. I would think any checks postmarked before the deadline would be accepted...

Thats the only thing that comes to mind...

spoiledgirls · 07-27-2008, 07:02 PM

I don't know, but I am dying of excitement!

Judy in Waco · 07-27-2008, 07:32 PM

Elaine, I do know that the final list of people who have tickets has NOT been updated for the final update. (That made no sense at all! lol)

I know this because I bought a ticket during the last couple of hours for another member who was not on the list, and that member's name is still not there.

However, Admin confirmed that my payment was received and that they understood who it was for.

So, I'm sure if you sent Admin a message, it will be handled.
