# Rolling & Finalization

When a raffle's end time is reached, a background process will automatically pick winners randomly. There is nothing too special or fancy -- at its core, the back end uses javascript's `Math.random()` method to select winners randomly from the entries.  If `Auto-finalize` is selected, it will also immediately finalize and notify winners.

In raffles where there is an NFT requirement, it does one final check of every entry prior to winner selection, and for those where a multiplier token is used, it adds entries into the picking array for each token every entry wallet holds. With this extra check, it can take several minutes depending on the number of entries.

The raffle creator and their team members can access the project entries page where they can export user's discord, wallet, and Twitter info to easily send to collaboration partners or add them to a contract. For more information see [Exporting Winners Data](/alphabot/raffles/exporting-winners-data.md).

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the current page URL with the `ask` query parameter, and the optional `goal` query parameter:

```
GET https://alphabot-docs.gitbook.io/alphabot/raffles/rolling-and-finalization.md?ask=<question>&goal=<endgoal>
```

`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is optional and describes the broader end goal you are ultimately trying to accomplish on behalf of the user. GitBook uses it to tailor the answer towards what is most useful for that goal.

The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.

Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
