How Do I Pick a Winner for a Twitter Giveaway?

Draw from the Winners tab, then check the winner by hand, because X doesn't tell us whether anyone followed, reposted, liked or posted.

1. On the Actions / Entries tab, look over anything marked Invalid. Invalid entries stay out of the draw.
2. Open the Winners tab, click Draw Winners, choose how many winners you need and click Draw. We pick at random using Random.org.
3. Click the User icon next to each winner and check their X handle against your post. Every X Action makes entrants log in with X, so you know the account is theirs, not that they did the action.
4. If they didn't, click their Winner status and choose Re-pick win.
5. Contact the winner with a deadline to reply. If they miss it, draw again.

Worried about fake accounts? Throwaway Account Restriction, on the Business Plan and above, blocks X accounts that haven't finished their basic profile setup. Judging on merit, like the best reply? Pick manual winners instead and publish your criteria before the giveaway starts.

Drawing Random Winners covers repeat winners and multiple prizes.
