Hey guys, this is Matt. Heads in the one. Today, I'm going to be announcing the winner of our big one-year anniversary contest officially.

Today, we have been on YouTube for one year, so it's time to pick a winner. If you take a look, this is every single username that entered. No one's there twice.

So here's how it's going to work: I've written a random line picker program in C. It's a terminal command I installed on my computer that I'm going to be using to pick a random line from this contest entries file.

So first, I'm going to pick a first place winner. Then I'm going to pick a second place winner. Now, the deal is that if the first place winner doesn't claim their prize in 24 hours, then the second place winner gets it, etc. Then I'll pick a third place winner, and that's all I'm gonna pick.

So if none of those people claim it, I'm gonna take it. But I have a feeling that they're gonna claim it. So I'm going to randomly picker it. The command I installed was random line, and that's just my line picker.

I'll drag it in, and we're about to see the contest winner: Jasper's 22. That's the winner! It was line 62, and there we go!

So that's the first place winner. The second place winner is Runescape fan 50,000. Then the third winner is Yankee fan 181.

So I'm going to personal message Jasper's 22, and if Jasper's 22 doesn't respond in 24 hours, it goes to Runescape fan, etc.

Okay, so now that the contest is over, I will, in the description of this video, have the link to download the random line picker source code, so that way you can check its legitimacy.

Anyway, thanks for watching my kids in one. Subscribe and goodbye!
