To err is human; to forgive, divine. Thank you for all that you do for the pocket knife community here on AAPK Jerry. Even if we weren't old Amdahl colleagues, I'd still look forward to your colorful repartee every time I visit here. Maybe the 11:59pm deadline needs to be revisited to something more accommodating like 1800hrs. After all, there were 720 total hours that the giveaway was open. Just my $0.02.

No, the time is not incorrect on my computer clock. This has never happened before. Can someone comment on this???????


To be clear, I was at least 15 minutes ahead of the deadline.

Nice gaw - thanks.


On page one, October, 2 you posted the above comment. Why didn't you pick a number at that time? Why wait 28 days later to pick your number?

Everyone here that is helping run the AAPK monthly giveaway are volunteers like Jerry said he wanted to go to bed we don't sit here waiting for the exact minute to post the final list ::facepalm:: My suggestion is get your number picked early and there won't be any issue.

Thanks for your suggestion Miller Bro's. It was always my assumption that entries made before the posted deadline would be honored, or what's a deadline for? Jerry's response confirms that. People should go to bed any time they please. Jerry's service is appreciated, he is no flubber and there is nothing to forgive.

Already taken care of Don. Number selection now closes at 1800 Eastern time (6:00 PM) on the last day of the month and the Illinois Pick 3 evening drawing (2130 drawing - 9:00 PM Central time for you civilians) will still determine the winner. Wouldn't it be great if you got your wish this easily all the time? :lol: :lol:
