  • TW Lottery

    Hey TW players,
    I hope your all having a great day today and that you'll try to read this post.

    Me and my team have decided to create a TW lottery system for Trench Wars public arena with the "space bucks" they have created. How this will work is that I'll get some public awareness so that a majority of pub players know of it so that we get a better return for your winnings.

    The first step is that we will find a suitable amount of money to be paid into the lottery fund, we suggested a sum of $5,000 as most should be able to afford this so that we have a mid way point between affordability and a good return if you win!.

    The way it will work is that I'll be in the public arena in spec that if you want to donate the 5,000 to enter is the way forward, I'll write your name down and put a number next to your name of which will be your ticket number. With this I'll ?message you back and pm you with your number so that you can remember (we can also tell you if you forget).

    So that we crack down on bribes and such, I'll get a staff member to make a magic hat and pick out a ticket of which we will announce on a thread or messaging you. The whole amount raised will go to the winner, no profit is involved in this event.

    For example if a small amount like 10 people play, that's 50k that the winner can win!, which is easy odds of 1/10, much better than real life lottery. A winner will always win as it's tickets and not numbers that you pick!.

    Any feedback is welcome to the thread, but any trolling and such please make your own thread.
    Thanks for reading,

    SokoMoko.

      Well of course that would make it more trustworthy but he is possibly running this all (or mostly) without staff supervision.

      Also, another suggestion to sokomoko: If it was drawn numbers and nobody gets the correct number, how about hold on to all that cash and just draw at the next possible moment as to build a jackpot. This way, the jackpot becomes bigger and bigger and more lucrative drawing in more bettors. $50,000 is great but $5,000,000 is better.

      Also, you can insert a 10% miss ratio towards increasing the jackpot. This way, you'll get what you want and be able to pay out every 9 out of 10 draws. The 10% miss ratio would be adding 10% more numbers than the actual number of tickets (bettors). So if you had 10 bettors, you'll have 10 numbers to choose from plus 10% (or simply 1). That means out of a hat, you'll draw numbers from 1-11. If you hit a miss, you can allow more bettors to the pot and increase the numbers accordingly. Let's say 20 more players join in. You'll have 30 players total at a total of $150,000. You'll have 30 + 10% (33) numbers to choose from.

        Yes we was thinking of a bot but thought that as it's a little project, bot people woudn't want to help. But it would make it more easier as there is alot of spam in pub to keep track of the messages and such.

        Yes Magi sounds good, just got to work out what your saying as I kind of don't understand! hehe.
