					<description><![CDATA[In reply to &lt;a href=&quot;https://happilyblended.com/2010/08/giveaway-winners-chosen/#comment-18877&quot;&gt;Becca&lt;/a&gt;.

Becca, the only reason I don&#039;t do it the way you do it is because if that person didn&#039;t enter correctly then the number of &quot;entries&quot; is not correct. Let&#039;s say you have 48 entries and of those 4 are incorrect, then the number you should be using for &quot;entries&quot; to make it a valid number would be 44 total, not 48. To me this would cause complaints if someone where to take the time to review the giveaway entries {and I have had ppl do this}. So let&#039;s say it draws the number 43 and that person didn&#039;t follow the rules so you go and draw another number, it&#039;s not really fair because if that number 43 comment was deleted then the winner would be that next or person prior to win. Maybe I am misunderstanding what you do exactly though.]]></description>

					<description><![CDATA[Interesting...that is a bit different from my process.  I used to delete all of the &quot;incorrect&quot; comments as they came in, but then I realized how much work it is.  Now I just pick a winner, check if they followed the rules, and go from there.]]></description>
