Dear colleagues,

I won a 2650$ ticket on Twitter a few weeks ago but unfortunately I forgot to log in in-time. It was a team pro who made the respective prize game on Twitch. I did miss the moment the winner was chosen (Twitter account name). The next day he announced that the respective player won the ticket on Twitter and added the information that the player should answer with his account name within the next 24 hours; otherwise there would be redraw.

I missed this information and read the message two days after he announced the winner.

Now there is a redraw but nevertheless I would like to ask whether it is not legally correct to announce such a short period directly after the drawing. Such details (24 hours) should be stated beforehand and not afterwards.

What´s your opinion about that?

I think 24hrs is a long time considering we live in an age when the average person has their phone with them all the time and receives notifications within minutes of any information like twitter notifications/mentions.

Such lotteries do not bear any legal force, because you do not enter into any contracts and do not sign anything. Anyone who arranges lotteries on the Internet is not legally obliged to give winnings. The only thing left for you is to hope for the chesnost of the organizer.
