Every Deserved draw is provably fair. Below is the committed seed hash and full entry list for every competition; once a draw is done you can verify the revealed seed yourself. How it all works is explained underneath.
Competition commitments & entry lists
The published SHA-256 hash for each competition, committed before sales open. Expand any row to see its full entry list (every ticket number and entrant). Once a competition is drawn, the secret seed is revealed so the result can be verified.

Before a competition opens we publish a cryptographic commitment to a secret draw seed. When the draw happens we reveal the seed, and because the result is calculated from it deterministically, anyone can confirm the winner was decided fairly and could not have been tampered with.
No insider edge, no hidden weighting. Free postal entries sit in the exact same ticket pool with the exact same chance of winning as paid entries.
How our draws work
Five steps, from the commitment we publish before sales open to the verification anyone can run after the draw.
- 01CommitBefore a single ticket is sold, we generate a secret random draw seed and publish a SHA-256 hash of it on this page. The hash is a fingerprint, it locks in the seed without revealing it, so we can never swap it later.
- 02SellTickets are allocated as entries come in, paid online and free by post alike. Each entry is timestamped and given a ticket number the moment it is made.
- 03CloseWhen the competition sells out or reaches its closing time, the entry list is final. Nothing more can be added or changed.
- 04RevealAt draw time we publish the original secret seed. Hash it yourself and check it matches the commitment we published at step one: proof we never changed it.
- 05VerifyThe seed deterministically selects the winning ticket(s) from the final list. Anyone can re-run the same calculation and arrive at exactly the same winner, no trust required.
No purchase necessary. A free postal entry is allocated a ticket number in the same pool and has the exact same chance of winning as any paid entry.
Independent verification
You never have to take our word for it. Once a draw is complete, take the revealed seed, run it through any standard SHA-256 tool, and confirm the fingerprint matches the commitment published here before sales opened. Then re-run the deterministic draw against the final entry list and you will land on the same winning ticket every time.
That is what provably fair means: a result that any entrant, journalist, or auditor can reproduce for themselves. 18+ only, please play responsibly.
