will sky let us know at the end of the 26th how many tickets we have accumulated just to make sure they are correct?

    Don't think they did last time so I'm guessing not.

    How can we be sure that we are in the drawing list and this draw will be fair?. They will just announce some names with no clarity about the software they're using

    God, you're making it sound like you've done something to be entered into this promotion. Just play poker as you normally would and you might win some prizes, if not, boo hoo. Stop complaning about something like this, so utterly ridic

    Of course they'll include everyone, what would be the point of doing anything else? They're gonna give away £x amount of prizes, why would they care if there are 10 people in the draw or 10,000 in terms of who wins it?

    You should know yourself (at least roughly) how many points you've earned on a given day imo so all they can do is re-iterate that to you anyway, there's still no way you'd know you're actually in the draw, but it's free moniezz, as Percy said, if you win you win, if you don't you've lost nothing.

    I herd a nasty rumour that the only reason sky did this promo was so they wouldn't count you in the draw!

    i just typed in the golden ticket promo code but i know the promotion started yesterday.

    Do you only start accumulating tickets after you've typed in the code or once i type in the code is the whole period counted? i.e. will my points/tickets be included from yesterday :)

    I think all points count as long as you enter the promo code sometime before the 26th, or at least that's the way I interpreted it.

    I would love to know just as reference how many tickets were in the draw last time. Are we talking 200,000+ do people think? A max of 350 a week with roughly 1000 seated most of the day could mean up to 350,000. Just be interesting to know so I can sort of work out my chances. If anyone at Sky wants to provide the number from last weeks then that would be great!

    Given that most people will probably get 350 or close to without even altering what they'd normally do anyway I'd reckon it's definitely gonna be 350,000+ tickets.

    Clearly my maths must have gone wrong cos this don't seem right...

    350k tickets   /  96 prizes    = 3645

    But assume you got 50 tickets

    is that not 50 in 3645

    which is 1 in 72???

    Have I gone wrong or are the odds not that bad for 350k tickets? :s
