This is bullcrap.

I mean...good on you, jamaro!

You can't cry bullcrap, ColdChef, you got a tee-shirt. Which is cool. And yay jamaro (like tomorrow? JAM-a-ro?) No pressure or anything, jamaro.

With the money ColdChef spent on those 2,545 non-winning tickets, he could have flown first-class to any meetup anywhere.

Do not use your damn Vulcan logic on me. I've been wronged! Wronged!

Awesome stuff, jamaro.

Fantastic! I continue my 100% winning streak of not winning raffles. It's all due to this magic coffee cup I have, that insures for me that I will never win a raffle. I wonder how many times he entered? I am thrilled by the amount of money raised.

She, msali! I think jamaro bought 8 tickets?

So what are you planning on calling user 100,000?

WHOOPS! Wrong linky there.

I mean SHE SPEAKS!!

They forgot to mention that from now on user database ids are no longer visible on metafilter, just usernames.

jouke, that's true on the blue, but the grey still uses old code and shows them.

Wow, thanks everyone. I was AFK all day at a BACPS meeting where to my astonishment, I won 3 carnivorous plants in their raffle.

I still have no idea what to name the account. I thought about giving it to a good friend of mine who I know would love MF and would fit in great but then I wouldn't want her to get saddled with 100K username baggage.

Mostly, I'm just having a hard time wrapping my head around "I won."
