I have a question.
Does anyone think it is a little odd that we would ba able to "hedge" our odds when a drawing is about to happen?
I mean, just before the drawing for the ram was about to take place, Ambush received money for tickets for the drawing. A suggestion in the future, please make rules clear about when we can purchase tickets. For example, let's say I knew the OCZ Ram that was being "given" away was say: $250.00. I could, in theory, break out a hundred dollar bill just before the drawing, and hedge by odds of getting the ram. I felt that was a little questionable as far as ethics. Allowing someone to essentially "buy" up odds right at the moment of the drawing.
Not mad, just my opinion on it.
