Lucky Member Draw allows you to create a list of entrants from which one or more are randomly selected as winners. The procedure consists of three modules...
Module 1: Draw Controller
The controller allows you to create a new draw, name the draw and manually enter entrants into the draw. In addition, the following buttons are available...
1.Reset Draw. This will clear all current entrants from the draw.
2.Scan QR Code. See below.
Note that only one draw may be active at any time. The number of entrants is limited only by the size of your membership.
Module 2: Scan QR Code
When the Scan QR Code button is clicked from the Controller module, a QR code will be displayed on the screen. Members with a mobile device will be able to enter the draw by scanning the code. The intention is that the QR code will be displayed at an event to be held by your U3A. Members arriving at the event will be able to scan the code and automatically be entered into the draw.
After scanning the code, the member will be required to login. The system will record the entrant and then automatically logout after 10 seconds.
Only member logins that access the Member Portal are allowed entry into the draw. Administrative logins will be rejected. A member may only enter once into any one draw.
The QR code is designed to be printed. To print, press CTRL-P or select Print from your browser menu when the QR code is displayed. It is permissible to print multiple pages and scan simultaneously.
Module 3: Draw Display
This module performs the random prize selection. It is designed to be projected to a large screen device such as a television or overhead projection system. The following buttons are available...
1. Pick a Winner. Click to randomly select and display a prize winner on screen. You may pick as many winners as there are prizes by repeating this process. Once a prize is won the winner will be removed from the pool of entrants meaning they will not be able to win another prize.
2.New Draw. Each winner is numbered sequentially as First Prize, Prize #2, Prize #3 etc. Click this button to reset the number back to 1a All winners will be returned to the pool of available entrants.
3.Refresh Data. Refreshes the list of entrants from which to pick a winner. This button should not be clicked while a draw is in progress. You may wish to refresh before a New Draw.
4.Finalise & Close. This button will finalise the draw and return you to the administration home page.
The Lucky Member Draw has been designed to operate on multiple devices at the same time. Here is a suggested workflow...
1.Prior to the event, enter the Controller module and setup the name of the draw.
2.From the Controller click the Scan QR Code button. Print one or more QR Code pages to be displayed at the event so that members may enter the draw automatically.
3.At the event...
a.Place the printed QR Codes in prominent locations so that members may automatically enter the draw. Alternatively, the QR code can be displayed on a digital device from which members can scan.
b.Use a workstation to enter the Controller module. Select members for entry into the draw as necessary. This can be done as an alternative or in addition to scanning the QR code.
c.Optionally, connect the same or another workstation to a large screen device.
d.Enter Draw Display and when ready click Pick a Winner to randomly select prize winners.
e.When all is complete, click the Finalise & Close button to close the draw.
4.Destroy any printed QR Codes. They cannot be used to enter another draw but, if kept may lead to confusion.
