Nope. I pull all the correct answers, find the # of entries, and randomly draw a # using random.org. Your ticket came up :)

What model of Rossignol skis are they?

My interest increased once I staked a claim of a 5% chance of winning them. :flag:

All correct entries count towards the skis, even if you don't win a weekly drawing :) So enter daily!

I actually don't know the model yet. Sorry, will let you know as soon as I find out. C'mon though, they are free skis :)

I didnt mean anything bad, I just meant I only cared once I thought I had a chance to actually win them! (Because I had thought only winning entries got a shot at the skies, I didnt realize all correct answers did).

I've been 5 for 5! Still waiting on lady luck though..

I've been pretty impressed with how HARD some of these questions are. Most have not been the sort of things you can find out in a 45 second Google search. One of them took me about 20 minutes to figure out.
