Re: Purchase your tickets!
so how do we know one of your friends/guild members dont come on an alt with the number alrdy, sounds like a scam to me
Re: Purchase your tickets!
The numbers will be picked by a broker, such as Telamon...I am going to try and see if I can get the staff involved in the picking as well...
Re: Purchase your tickets!
if u can do something on those lines then it would be sweet otherwise i dont really see a turnout as many people have tried to scam through various ways as such
Re: Purchase your tickets!
A request has been put into the staff for them to pick the numbers randomly every week for legitimacy...until then I will use Telamon for the drawing!
Re: Purchase your tickets!
I have also added 60k to the prize pool out of my own pocket to get it started.
So the very first drawing has a potential to be 360k!!

Re: Purchase your tickets!
Staff should not get involved picking ticket numbers as a way to validate your claims. This is not a shard event, player-event, or any of the such, it's a means for which the shop owner to make money (ie: a Lottery). If you want to make money doing this, you should build a reputation or establish some means in which to prove the odds of the lottery to the purchaser.

This is not a way to make money as ALL purchases go into the event. The prize pool is 75% of the total tickets purchased and the remaining 25% goes towards paying the vendor. There will be a certain reserve amount saved for the vendor and anything else will be thrown into the total prize pool. I have no intention of making money off of this. I just thought it would be fun for the shard. If you need a reference for me you can ask Telamon and see what he thinks about me.
Re: Purchase your tickets!
If the numbers have to match the ticket exactly as in 1234 and not 4321 then you have a 1 in 10000 chance of winning but if you have to match only the numbers in any order you have a very good chance of winning but will have multiple winners. just make it a raffle and save yourself some math.

No it wont work like that each ticket is labeled 1 - 100 and one number will be drawn and that is the winner.
Re: Purchase your tickets!
Telamon has agreed to pick the winning numbers.
Re: Purchase your tickets!
Congratulation to Telamon's guild members on winning the lottery!
Wait, too early...?
