Ken,
I believe there is plenty of room for almost everyone. But if I was to limit the first purchases, it would be more than one. At two apiece, do you think we will get a hundred participants and two each??? I am crossing my fingers we get 60-70 participants, and at 3 apiece, on average, that would give us about the 200 we need. My guess is that the average would be somewhere in the area of 2 1/2 per participant, and with 70 participants, that is only 175 entries. I am crossing my fingers for the final 25. Limiting one per person would scare me of not reaching the goal of 200.
But again, this is open for discussion. With this being the first raffle, we will know much more after this first one. Remember, at 200 entries, you are going to get 5 chances for each purchase.
