(2). Unlimited Entry accepted.
(3). Send the credit with the comment as New Jackpot Contest and post the amount of credits here too.
(4). As this is a promotional offer contest. I will be giving 80% of the credits collected by this contest to the winner.
(5). The Contest closed on 23rd Feb 2008 14:30 IST (GMT +5.5) hours and the draw will be taken on 23rd Feb 20:00 IST (GMT +5.5) hours.
(6). I will pm the winner and he has 48 hours to claim the prize money.
(7). As a bonus your name will be displayed in my signature for about a week.

People are not going to enter contests that are chosen by a pseudo-random generator.
You can easily work out the random number chosen by checking the last number chosen (which is prominently displayed in your signature).

what you exactly mean by a pseudo-random generator.
And about the random number displayed in my signature...that a sample number displayed.
nearly 2 more days to go for the draw and the random number script is being tested and modified then and there.

What's this fuss about true randomness? Perhaps you have wondered how predictable machines like computers can generate randomness. In reality, most random numbers used in computer programs are pseudo-random, which means they are a generated in a predictable fashion using a mathematical formula. This is fine for many purposes, but it may not be random in the way you expect if you're used to dice rolls, roulette wheels and lottery draws.
