How we pick the winners
We keep track of the raffle entries using the ITT Donation Bot addon, and
record its data in a Google Docs spreadsheet. When we draw the raffle, the
first two columns are copied and pasted into the stdin of this small shell
script. We
run it as many times as it takes to come up with seven unique winners.
