There are 290 contestants with a total number of posts of 6551 (and that's how many slips of paper there will be). Everyone is assigned a number so, for example, '1843' is #1 and will get 33 slips with that number on it since he had 33 posts. I'll put all the slips in a bucket and have the granddaughter of a co-worker draw a slip. Hopefully this next week.

Thanks for the update, Carl.
It is good to know all the 290 contestants have a shot, even when it is weighted toward the frequent posters.
The prize is outstanding. I think anyone would be happy to win a White's TDI PI or a Spectra V3!
Best wishes,
