 This method was a pain in the ass, but it still beats the random number generator.

A couple days ago, I posted my dilemma about an extra shirt that I had, and so I decided to give it to one of you lucky people. 
 
Let me tell you, the responses I got were amazing. I got funny responses, heartbreaking responses, utterly random responses. They were all great, the few hours after I posted the first blog, I saw the responses and felt bad. I only have one shirt to give away, and that was a shame.  
 
So after the cutoff time, I cut up pieces of paper, wrote everyones name on it as I read their comments again, and threw them into a hat. As shown above. Shook the hat a bit, made sure the names were mixed enough, and drew a name. The lucky winner.  

 
The winner!
The winner!

 

Congratulations JJWeatherman, fate smiles on you today, and you win the snazzy Giant Bomb shirt.  

 
 
I had fun doing this, I will probably do this again later on. I highly doubt that the prize will be one of these shirts though. The only reason I had an extra was due to a mixup. I don't really think it would be fair to order extra shirts from the store just to give away (right?). But I have the tendency to acquire a lot of random, strange, stuff. So I'm sure I can give someone something. No guarantees, but you never know.  
 
Thanks to everyone who posted, and played along, you're all awesome people, and this community is amazing.

I call bias! Everybody knows that the weather and hats are in bed with each other. Think about it: the weather gets bad, and you wear a hat to protect you from the bad weather. Impartial, indeed.

Wooo! Aw man, this is awesome. I never win anything
 
This is great. I'll finally be able to represent the Giant Bomb community via my chest (something I was previously unable to do, despite several attempts). 
 
Thanks.  :))

Everyone should feel bad for someone that can fit comfortably into a size 2XL shirt. Should of had them run a race or something for it :D
