AmeliaLouise, dear, this is a special case you have presented. They will invoke, what is commonly called in the trade, "Ameliorations." HGTV's crew of endless compassion, diplomacy and the highest integrity will carry out an All-Points-Bulletin on yours, (or, mine, if I win,) whereabouts. We are talking Basset Hound-type searching, here. They will be searching and searching! :>) But just in case they don't, one needed, in this case to leave a cell phone number...you did leave a cell phone number, didn't you, dear AmeliaLou?!!! It is painful, yea, it is devastating to think, had you not left a cell phone number that, perhaps, Leafly might end up using your situation in one of her stories! But for now, as Leafly's story takes on a "feng shui" flare...Sam has just arrived on a dilapidated bike. :>) shoeshine boy | ||||

I did not leave a cell phone number . But I figured out I can call my home Voice mail from my cell to check for any messeges . | ||||

Yes, they try very hard to find the winner using all resources available. --Shelly ************ May your dreams come true...thanks HGTV for helping ours along! | ||||

Thank You for the responses . My son is out of the hospital now so I am home. But I think they already chose the winner. Congrats to who ever that may be. Blessings to you all . | ||||

Hello Shelly; So; would you mind sharing with us how and in what form you were first contacted and how long before the live show was aired? How much time passed between the taping and the reveal? Did you get a call? An email? A letter? Was it a week before, a few days before and when did you get the paperwork? Did someone from the network visit you, or did it arrive via mail? Are you allowed to even say after all this time? The answers to at least some of these questions would go a long way to easing the minds of many stressed out people. PLEASE... | ||||

LOL....Shelly found out like 90% do...surprised at the "Live Reveal Show" . Only two people I know were clued in slightly. A family member,friend or co-worker may be clued in so they can make sure you (ME) are where they need (ME)to be on the big reveal. **** Fear knocks at the door**** ********Faith answers******** ******And no one is there****** <*><*>Proud Member of The Chatter Fingers<*><*> ~♥~and~♥♥deleted~ | ||||

Much like a Surprise Birthday Party, a few people know in order to set up the winner. On occasion a person can't keep a secret but the person has to "act surprised" for the network. But most are truly caught off guard. As for me winning....My fainting will totally be real. **** Fear knocks at the door**** ********Faith answers******** ******And no one is there****** <*><*>Proud Member of The Chatter Fingers<*><*> ~♥~and~♥♥deleted~ | ||||

Hey Vinnie, wouldn't it be fun to have an ambush live like they use to do. I know they have to do extra planning, but oh so much fun for the winner. *****Catch the Excitement***** ******Dreams and happiness to all my MB friends****** ~ ~ ♥ ~ ~♥ ~ ~♥~~♥~~♥ a flapjaw and a Sheltie collector avatar fan Real Friends Believe in Your Dreams | |||

I'm still holding out hope that they went ahead and stated winner would be notified by March 4th to send us all off track. I'm holding out hope for a live ambush as well.. and I'll be HOME ALL DAY! | ||||
