Hey RANDOM.ORG,
For the last three years, my internet friends do a March Madness Bracket competition. Whoever correctly guesses the most amount of wins.
Being a Canadian, I know little about US College Sports, and Basketball just isn't my sport.
I said I was gonna pass and they said. ‘No one gets a bracket right, give it a try, you could guess.’
Then I though how Random! So, every year I use a combination of random questions about universities I have never even heard about (which university is closer to the continental US, Which University has a bigger endowment, which university has a bigger student population)
For universities I have heard of, I used the Random.org coin flipper to flip 29 coins and then the majority of heads or tails wins. I also look away and click the flip again for a random number of times.
My success has been very limited to say the least! But I do have fun and I enjoyed reading your history of Random.org.
I do have to count the heads or tails manually to make sure one has won. But if you wanted you could add a total of heads or tails.
Anyways thanks for being so random I couldn't make a March Madness bracket without you!

I am a medical librarian and yesterday I hosted an open house at the library to celebrate all the changes we have made recently. As part of our celebration (and for incentive to drop in), I offered door prizes. A friend in our tech dept helped me set up and configure an extra time clock, so that all visitors had to do to register was swipe their employee badge. After downloading this to Excel, I used your generator to generate 3 numbers to determine winners of our door prizes. Easy peasie, one two three-sie!
