I ordered the mega mystery box from @MrYoyoThrower (who shut down Return Top Shop) and it arrived! ![image](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex015/uploads/yoyoexpert1/original/4X/4/3/8/43891869b09c6ff265f8d07ae7e60d10aa80d8bb.jpeg) Let’s give these items away to people active here on the forums! But how should I do it? A few ground rules - USA only please, otherwise shipping gets crazy. I can slip Canada in there if it helps as a tip of the hat to Jeremy who of course is Canadian - people active on the forum only, for some reasonable definition of the word “active” - for the smaller items I will bundle them with one of the metal yo-yos, so you can consider this giveaway “metal yo-yo plus 1 or more bonus items”. I count 6 metal yo-yos in there so six things to give away? Beyond that recommend me a technique! What is a fair fun way to dole this stuff out as a mini not so secret Santa? ---

Maybe put together a list of users that are deemed active, and then just use a random number picker. Everyone has an equal chance in theory When someone wins, take them off the list and draw another number, rinse, repeat. ---
