 I'm curious just how exactly this screenshot "drawing" is going to happen. Whats the process and how is its randomness ensured?

As with every random drawing;

Use a hat, pot, trash bag or any other container of the proper size.
Assign a numerical value to each name and pick a number.
Randomly look at the screen and the first name you see is a winner repeat 9 times or till you have a headache.
Put every name into a spreadsheet and run a random selection Macro.
Look at all the names and select only your friends, people you want as friends, your enemies, people you dislike, people who have names you dont like, people that remind you of someone .... By this time you should have 5 or fewer names left.

lol

Accutally, every screen shot that was sent in the user was added to a list of entries. I then took that list and used random.org list randomize. I ran that took the first name on the list as the winner, then removed that entry and repeated until each server had 5 winners. Of course I will be releasing the winners names after the prizes have been placed on their accounts.

Hmm, the list of winners was released hours ago but there is still nothing in my account yet.... and I've sent a ticket.
