A little Annihilus Lottery / Giveaway (NL/SC)

Hi to everyone,

as mentioned elsewhere my two sons (9 and 10 years old) and I started playing D2R in June this year. The last time I played this game was ca. 20 years ago. Therefore, we started from scratch with a Summon Druid (myself), a Summon Nec and a Zealer Pally. It played out very well and we managed to get through hell on selffound gear. Initially I planned to only play on selffound gear and looked up cheap runewords for our chars etc. But soon enough the boys discovered the big world of Battle Net and this quickly created certain "strong desires"

We then farmed gems, jewels and runes and traded for ISTs and finally for some decent gear. We also met some very nice people who gave us very good items for free. We even won an Enigma here in this place a few weeks ago and we also profited from the large database on this site and from other people here in this forum.

While we are not that rich that we can giveaway Enigmas (currently at least everyone has one Enigma on one of his chars) we want to give at least something back to the great D2 community here. In the last three weeks we switched to farming Clones and it turned out that trading unidentified

Annihilus is a very efficient way to get JAHs.

Now, the boys really had to restrain themselves not to identify them and that gave rise to the idea for the lottery. I currently have 20 unidentified Annis reserved in my stash we want to giveaway.

The terms are as follow:

• The first 20 people who respond with "count me in" participate
• Your lot number is the index number of your posting and corresponds to one certain Anni (and you get it no matter what - even if it is a 20/20/10 )
• When all numbers are taken or by the end of the next weekend the boys identify the annis
• After that I post a list with the stats and the participants can decide if they want it or not
• If you want it simply add me on Bnet and whisper when I am on (I am mostly available at about 06:00 or 07:00 pm MEZ)
• Annis that are not claimed within one week will be given away to other people (or we keep them if they are better than our own ones )

EDIT(1): This is Non-Ladder Softcore!

That doesn't leave me with much more to say than "Happy gambling"!

EDIT(2): Posting with the result of the lottery

+1 for positive vibes.

(not entering)

Just bumping to the top.

I assume softcore non-ladder so I'm out. You should add the mode to the title.

I have D2R on Switch, too but I myself never played on it. Therefore, we will try to get your anni on your switch account. Or maybe someone here who plays both on PC and Switch can help.

Lots of us play on more than one platform. For instance, I play on both PC and Switch. You could call on me to provide this support when the time comes. Just find me on this thread and message me when this cool little lottery comes to an end.

Count me in!

This is very gracious of you, and I think that I'd hardly alone in my opinion, but us old gamers from 20 years ago coming back would love this kind of early boost.

Always great to see stuff like this. I'm not going to participate, just tired of seeing an unlucky 13 next to my name.

Who doesn't love a little gamble, eh?
Count me in sir!

Count me in!

My boys have already asked me this morning when they will finally be allowed to indentify the annis. For the sake of Peace and my nerves, I have therefore decided to close the participation and they have now identified them.

If I counted correctly, by now there were 7 participants. We have therefore decided to throw 21 lots into the pot so that everyone gets 3. This means that e. g. its60cent got the lot numbers 1,7,14 - Whero 2,8,15 etc. In the following table you find the annis corresponding to your lots.

Special congratulations to @its60cent (19|18|10) and @LordBeverage (19|19|07). We hope you do not want your annis (just kidding ).
To get your anni(s) simply add me on Bnet (oOKIWIOo#2303) and whisper to me (on workdays I am mostly available at about 07:00 pm MEZ. When I work at home - mostly Thursday and Friday - I am more flexible ). In addition, many thanks in advance to @spiderxland who has offered help to get annis to switch-only players.
