And the winners are...

These are the final lists, in order of application:

• Calix (ST): acpoulos, JoeB (2 testers)
• Calix II (ST): SmackDAT, NextLevel (2 testers)
• Chedech (FL): MCollins, mhnh007, SmileTT (3 testers)
• Peterpan (FL): SmileTT, JimT (2 testers)
• Rubicon (FL): mhnh007, Mkeats, NextLevel (3 testers)

    
The numbers that were drawn today are, in ascending order:
    4
    7
    10
    11
    13
    38

This means that the first testers will be:

• Calix:      ( 4 mod 2)+1 = 0+1 = 1: acpoulos
• Calix II:   ( 7 mod 2)+1 = 1+1 = 2: NextLevel
• Chedech: (10 mod 3)+1 = 1+1 = 2: mhnh007
• Peterpan: (11 mod 2)+1 = 1+1 = 2: JimT
• Rubicon:  (13 mod 3)+1 = 1+1 = 2: Mkeats

    
The testing order will be the following:

• Calix (ST): acpoulos, JoeB
• Calix II (ST): NextLevel, (SmackDAT)
• Chedech (FL): mhnh007, SmileTT, MCollins
• Peterpan (FL): JimT, SmileTT
• Rubicon (FL): Mkeats, NextLevel, mhnh007

   
All the first testers, please send me a PM with your address.
SmackDAT, please let us know whether you have an address in US or Canada (this is not urgent, as NextLevel will get the Calix II first).

Well-spotted: I hadn't noticed his profile says Location=London. Maybe it's London, OH.
Well, my original posting was at least ambiguous. First I wrote "US/Canadian residents", then "US or Canadian Address". So I'd say if SmackDAT falls into one of the two cases he's in, otherwise not.

For reasons of timing and transparency, I will leave him on the list for the purpose of the lottery drawing, but we'll have to clarify the issue at the latest if and when it will be his turn to test the blade.

BTW, I see you are located "Somewhere Good": is that in the US or Canada? 
Save

Doesn't SmackDAT live in Britain?

1h11m left.

But Chedech maybe the key to break the 2K, or at least reaffirm the Violin is the one...

Done

"not post much" sounds like an euphemism... OK MKeats, you're in. This means that MCollins will likely get the
opportunity to test more than one blade. For fairness, I'll allow others
to enrol in more than one list, too. No tester may but more than one
blade, though.

I'll add mhnh007 to the Rubicon list, as well.

EDIT: Just for clarification and avoidance of doubt. What I meant is that, since MCollins and MKeats play in the same club, they'd get the chance to test two blades, so I wanted to be fair to the others. MKeats' account was created over a year ago, so all seems legit.

Canadian tester who would love to test the Rubicon!

fatt wrote: OK I suppose you have a way to know the exact order other than watching the event live because on the english page https://www.lotto.net/german-lotto/results we only see the numbers in ascending order.

Man, I didn't notice they were only listed in ascending order, even on the German site...
Nevermind, since we use a modulo operation, we can use any ordering and it will still be fair.
Thanks for pointing this out, I will update my earlier posts.

The order is not the order the numbers were drawn, it's the numbers in ascending order, as they appear on the site. They are matched to the blades in alphabetical order.

At present, the lists are fairly short:
Calix (ST): A, B (2 testers)
Calix II (ST): C, D (2 testers)
Chedech (FL): E, F, G (3 testers)
Peterpan (FL): H, I (2 testers)
Rubicon (FL): (0 testers)

In your example, the numbers in ascending order are:
1 7 12 23 38 45
 
 1 would be used for Calix
 7 would be used for Calix II
12 would be used for Chedech
23 would be used for Peterpan
38 would be used for Rubicon, if there were any testers
 
So:
( 1 mod 2)+1=2. Calix would be tested first by tester B, then A
( 7 mod 2)+1=2. Calix II would be tested first by tester D, then C
(12 mod 3)+1=1. Chedech would be tested first by tester E, then F, then G
(23 mod 2)+1=2. Peterpan would be tested first by tester I, then H

Note that I took the actual names out, because this is just a simulation. The actual drawing will be tomorrow.

Edit: procedure updated because the numbers are listed in acending order on the websites.
