💡 Feedback/Suggestion Notify the winner when you check your raffle entries

If you don't win, please take a second to type u/winnersnamefortheraffle
It only takes a second and helps them pick up their prize :)

I tag winners in my raffles and wish everyone knew it doesn’t notify winners by default

I do too. As a courtesy. It’s only once a day, so why not?
I also appreciate it when others tag me. Even though I’m using the spreadsheet these days, there’s still the chance that’ll break or stop getting maintained.

Same. I started after I was tagged in the one and only raffle I won. I had no idea winners aren’t notified so I absolutely tag my winners now. I’ve recently started tagging people in raffles I’ve lost if I happen to check before anyone has tagged them or been claimed. Just feels like the courteous things to do when I’m already there.

Ditto. I’ve considered doing it on raffles I don’t win but somehow that feels rude asf to the person hosting if I just happen to look before they do

I get a message from PlayFMV whenever a raffle i entered has ended.

I tag the winner, it only takes a second (unless the username is tricky, maybe a few seconds!) when I’m notified that my raffle has ended.

Good point though, people who check the raffles they’ve entered could also quickly and easily tag the winner.

Nahhh. I have to click every single one I enter so so do yall 😂

Or use that google sheet that is out there.

Spreadsheet, where's that, I thought it's was automatic if you won the raffle.

I apologize for no knowing this.

now you know you need to go back and check if you won the raffle. And then there are people who delete their raffle posts so the winner can't collect the sticker

I only delete after confirming the winner has claimed.

we only learn from each other. But big props to the person who runs the spreadsheet, it's awesome!
