Hi Raphael, Please let me help you understand.
Each month we have a poll with 5 entries. When there are more than 5 submissions, all are entries are printed out as thumbnails and then folded in half and placed in a hat. Then there is a random blind draw by Mrs RedRyder or our granddaughter, CiCi. This is shown by video just before the poll for the coming month is opened. Below are examples of our draws.


So there are actually 2 events you need to win. The first is to win the luck of the draw from the hat and then to win the poll by member's votes.
Your lovely brass twin was in the hat for the draw but was not one of the 5 drawn.

Here is what they look like ready to place in the hat.
