[RR] Winner Takes All RR - North America Edition - Looking for NEW host

:heart: Welcome to Winner Takes All North America Edition RR :heart: (a.k.a. WTA NA RR)

Hello! My name is Lianna and I’m the host for this RR :smiley:.

If it is your first time to join, PLEASE u2u me your address!

This Round Robin works a bit like a lottery:
You join a group and have the chance to win a bunch of postcards!

What you need to know about this RR

Click here for how this RR works

Every group has a certain amount of places. When you join a group, you’ll be added to the group and the number of your place (or choice) is your lucky lottery number. After the group is full, a winner will be chosen through random.org and announced here. If you win, you’ll receive a postcard from everyone in the group that didn’t win. If you lose, you have to send a postcard to the winner. It’s that simple!

Normal groups
These groups have 10 people in it.

Small/Special groups
These groups have 5 people in it.

Freaky Friday groups
These groups close every Friday. There is no required amount of participants (except at least 4).

Lottery groups
These groups have 5 people in it. You choose 5 numbers between 1-30. (For example: 2-13-15-22-29) When the group closes, 5 numbers will get chosen through random.org. Does a number matches with one of the numbers you have chosen? Everyone will send you one card, based on your profile (as much as possible). If more numbers match your chosen numbers, you will receive more cards. So if two numbers match, everyone will send you two cards. (This means that you’ll never know up front how many winners there are and cards you have to send - or perhaps you have to send no cards at all!). You are allowed to send multiple cards for the same person in an envelope.
If all five numbers match, every participant will send you five cards and you’ll receive a bonus card from me (the host).

This means if there are multiple winners, you have to send multiple cards. Even if you are a winner yourself, you still have to send a card to the other winner(s).

I will join group5

@kyvintage Can you message me your address, please :slight_smile: ?

I’d like to join Groups 1, 4, and 5. Sending a message with my address momentarily.

I have updated :slight_smile:.

Aloha!
May I join groups 3, 5 & 8.
Thank you for hosting! :smiley:

I will join FF. No Lottery Groups?

I’ll join Group 7 :slight_smile:

May I join group 4 and group 8?

Also, how would the special/small groups work if only 1 person per country can join? Would it make sense to be 1 person per state/province?

Oops, I copied that from the main one in the Round Robins section. I’ll fix it.

I’ll add them tomorrow :).

Everything has been updated for the night :slight_smile:.

Hello, I would like to join groups 2 & 4, I’ll send my address to you now.

Everything is updated and @mere5oh lottery group added :slight_smile:

Pop me into the lottery group with 3, 8, 14, 24, 27

Thx

Please add me to a group 5 and group S3

@Tigergirl
