Basically, I'll go ahead and organize Adopt a Bronco if no one else can do it. However, over at Broncos Country they have a lottery system which is a better way of picking. I don't have the computer program to create a lottery system, so I was wondering if anyone here had the program and could organize it for us?

If not, I'll organize it the normal first come first serve way.

Errrr, the thing hasn't started yet. :laugh:

I'll give it 24 hours, if no one has the program to do the lottery system, then I'll just create the first come, first serve thread.

Just as fair notice to everyone, the thread will be created at 11PM GMT (unless something crazy pops up, which it probably won't).

GMT = Greenwich Mean Time (also known as the center of time).

AKA, it's British time.

Yes, if I end up organizing it, you're down as a pre-order (do you want Jay Cutler or Eddie Royal)?

It will be 3 posters to a player. Send me a PM now to remind me.

I think it's minus 7 hours from GMT time.

I can do it at 0:00 GMT time if you prefer.

What kind of lottery software are you talking about to do this? There are many free programs on the net.

You could do something with an excel spreadsheet.
Here is what you do, number the bronco's starters 1-54, then get the first 54 peopl that want to adopt a Bronco (throw me in that list). Then I believe that excel will randomly order the users, 1-54.

Or, I can whip up a quick python script tonight that will do it. I will even post the source code so that nobody thinks that I am doing anything hinky.

And if You are doing first come, first serve, I want Marshall or Dumervil.
