    Just watched it. I love Brooke’s interview with Moe. Took him that long to untie his shorts. Holy hell - what’s he doing?

    Alright y'all--it's about time to find winners for the swag contest. I decided that in order for the winner selection to be completely random and transparent, I would have to find a way to make it dependent on a future event, and not dependent on me. So here's what I came up with.

    First, I had to identify the entrants. Excluding myself, Sly, and people who specifically said they weren't interested, here are the people who posted in this thread.
    @42N8Bounce, @andalusian, @BBert, @BlazerWookee, @BLAZINGGIANTS, @Bob Dobalina, @BonesJones, @BoomChakaLaka, @BrianFromWA, @Chris Craig, @crandc, @Darkwebs, @dviss1, @GrandpaBlaze, @GriLtCheeZ, @H.C., @HailBlazers, @Hoopguru, @hoopsjock, @jonnyboy, @KeepOnRollin, @kjironman1, @maxiep, @Orion Bailey, @PCmor7, @Rhal, @riverman, @rotary111, @Shaboid, @SheedSoNasty, @SIeepwalker, @SlyPokerCat, @SportsAndWhine, @TBpup, @theprunetang, @Titan, @tlongII, @TorturedBlazerFan, @trailblazer18, @twobullz, @UncleCliffy'sDaddy, @Voodoo, @Wade Garrett, @yuyuza1,

    Now, in the OP, I mentioned that additional entries could be earned, up to 10 more per person, by posting in the forum: one additional entry for each 20 posts. Here are my counts relating thereto:
    upload_2019-5-22_13-20-41.png

    So, with 324 entries, I basically tripled that figure to give each "entry" three 3-digit numbers between 000 and 999. Here is the randomized allocation of 3-digit figures each entrant received.

    upload_2019-5-22_13-22-32.png

    So, all that given, how do you win? It will be determined by the last digit of the losing team's score as of the end of the 2nd, 3rd, and 4th quarters of the next 3 NBA playoff games. So we won't know who wins each item until each game is over.

    For example, if we had been using last night's Bucks-Raptors game, we would look first to see who lost--it was Milwaukee. Then we'd look at their 2nd, 3rd, and 4th quarter-end scores, which were 55, 81, and 102. So that would mean that entry 512 would win the swag, which would belong to @andalusian.

    Now, there are 28 possible outcomes which have no winner (I have them saved); if one of those pops up, we'll look at the winning team's 2nd, 3rd, and 4th quarter. In the unlikely event that there is still no winner, we'll just carry over to the next game.

    Tomorrow's ECF game 5 will determine who wins the t-shirt
    Saturday's ECF game 6 will determine who wins the hat
    Either ECF game 7 (if it occurs) or NBA finals game 1 (if no ECF game 7) will determine the winner of the bobble-head.

    Good luck to all entrants!!

    YOU have a secondary winner in mind! I'm going camping this weekend, so I'm not even going to pay attention to games or this forum until after Tuesday.

    You're telling me--that's why I came up with my elaborate randomizer. At this point, I'm hands off!
