Prizes were what someone *could* win, but there was no guarantee that every prize would be distributed.

The winners and prizes were programmatically selected: if someone purchased 2 tickets, then we'd roll the dice 2 times, and if one of the dice rolls resulted in a win, then a prize would be randomly selected from the list of prizes for that tier. The script did not keep track of which prizes were distributed, which is why some people got the same item twice/etc, and other items were not rewarded. I suppose my philosophy for implementing this year's lottery was a bit different than what other people expected, so I will take note of this going forward.


Clearly, Santa wrote it.
