Where do massages count, and where they do not?
Scroll back about 10 posts reading backwards. The data is there.

The official list of automatically qualified users is in this post:
Pentax K-1 Summer 2018 Giveaway - August Announcements - PentaxForums.com

If you are not on this list, you do not have an automatic raffle entry, and will need to manually enter as in previous months, at the times specified in the raffle threads.

Shoot me a PM if you believe there are any discrepancies.

be sure to read the top 3 posts of the linked thread

post no. 6 is the times of the start of the three raffle threads

post no. 5 is the list of those members who were the top posters in June and/or July

post no. 4 is the list of those other members who posted 180 or more times in August

those members listed in posts 4 and 5 are in, they don't need to do anything else if I understand the process correctly

If I'm reading his posts correctly, post #5 is a complete list - it includes everybody from post #2 and #4. No need to check more than one list.


If the threads all fill up, there will be 304 people qualified to win the K-1 II.

I think the ones crossed out on post #4 are the ones that were already qualified in post #2.

That is what I was trying to communicate

We are also using different post numbers but we are in agreement

1 chance in 304. Consider this:
  • Obtain 6 decks of playing cards
  • Remove any 8 cards and put them aside, leaving 304 cards
  • Mark 1 playing card on it’s face
  • Return it to the deck of 304 playing cards
  • Shuffle together the 304 cards
  • Stack the shuffled cards face down. The stack will be about 3.75” high
  • Remove 1 card from the stack and check it for the mark
  • That’s your chance to win the K-1

The differences are, 1) there is guaranteed to be a winner, 2) the odds of winning the smallest prize on the lottery has a lot more zeroes in it

for most lotteries/raffles

one in 300 chance of winning [ rough estimate ]

very good odds

OK, next question, when is the draw going to be made? Apart from this thread all evidence of the competition seems to have disappeared
