What's next?
Alright, I had this part written in the event of a three-parter, but comments are slowing down. If you're excited about the Drawing, make sure your preparations are set.
First, you need to make sure you have made one (AND ONLY ONE) comment in any of the three [Drawing Thread] posts. This comment also must be a top level comment, as seen here. Have you made more than one comment, and neither of them are replies? Take the time between now and midnight (ET) to delete a comment of your choice. Each account may only leave one comment in any of the three threads, and all winners will have their accounts checked out for any questionable activity.
Second, you need to stay tuned this Sunday at 11 AM ET (16 UTC). The winner will begin to be picked at that time, and a post will be made to acknowledge that.
In case you don't know, all of our winners have been picked by the third block released on the Bitcoin blockchain at that time. This process can be as short as twenty minutes or as long as an hour. You don't need any Bitcoin, all you have to know is a big line of numbers (a hash) comes out, and picks the winner for us!
The text file is released beforehand, with all of the entrants from the three [Drawing Thread] posts summed up in the post and a SHA-256 hash, to make sure none of the data has been tampered with. I will also include an Information folder, so for those who don't code, can find the winner for yourselves.
In other words, it's going to be remarkably hard for this to be rigged and going unnoticed.
Third, make sure you are reminded to donate to the winner! That includes setting a calendar reminder at December 23 at 6 PM ET (23 UTC), or PMing the RemindMe bot about it (links below). This is the biggest Millionaire Makers thread, and we want to give the winner justice!
For closure, this is done every month. If you thought today was hectic, January will not only be the first [Drawing Thread] of 2020, but our 50th Drawing Thread! That means that once January is done, we will have made 50 millionaires! (Our definition of "millionaire" in this subreddit is loose.)
Keep in touch! We have our own Discord moderated by one of the mod team, and if Discord isn't your thing, then set a reminder for January 17 at 6 PM ET! We have RemindMe bots, too (links below).
Finally, thank you all for entering this. Your entries have made this one of the biggest threads in the subreddit's history, and I'm excited to see what the future holds.
Clarification:
I want to let everyone know of a few things.
First, congratulations! Never before as moderator has this happened, you all have made me work harder as soon as I woke up!
Second, I want to clarify on some things. I’ve seen some accounts make replies, but have it as their only comment. If you have made a reply, make sure you make an original top-level comment to enter in the [Drawing Thread].
How do I know my comment is a top-level comment? Well, I have a handy graphic for you: https://imgur.com/Si1VLX4
Third, I am going to make a change. The Drawing Thread will receive a three-hour extension! This means that the posts will be locked at 9 PM ET (2 UTC), to give the people who weren’t able to comment in the original a chance to do so.
As for gathering comments, there is also change in that. They will be done only once at 12 PM ET (5 UTC) (originally 9 PM ET). This is because with so many people, many delete their comments, either due to not qualifying or not wanting to enter. This directly affects how comments are gathered, and with users this size, comment gathering will take a significant amount of time. To retry every time a comment is deleted will delay the [Draw] process, hence this decision. Speaking of which, the [Draw] post will continue to be made at 11 AM ET (16 UTC).
Finally, thank you. The response has been wonderful, and I’m glad this has been well received. If you have any comments, make sure you leave it in this subreddit: /r/millionairemakersmeta. If this is your first time here, I’ve also pasted the information from the original [Drawing Thread].
In Case You Missed It:

I (the writer) am currently on winter break and will take the free time I have now to future-proof this subreddit. I will add a Dropbox text file with all of the dates for 2020 in the upcoming hours, and will update the list of past winners in the subreddit sidebar (if you can’t see it, use old.reddit.com).
-
Our last winner, /u/Phantom_Viper, is currently accepting donations! A college student and a hard worker, donations will go towards savings and to future winners. If you would like to contribute, donate here!
