In the Interest of Transparency

As part of our Statement of Ethics, I like to keep a generally transparent means of communicating things like this. So, I’d like to take a moment to walk through our methodology for choosing the winners.

First, let me give you a look at what we see when loading up the contest entry box:

By practice, we keep things 100% anonymous. A bolded link means “unread”, while a standard link shows a read entry.

Now, we get to work! Each winner was chosen 100% randomly. With the aid of Random.Org’s “True Random Number Generator”, we did a simple 1-n random integer selection, four times over. “1” would be the first item, while “n” would be the very last.

And, well, that’s it! With the winners chosen, we reached out to let them know. I hope you enjoyed this little peek behind the scenes.
