Rules and Stuff:
-Tickets are 10k each to make the awards larger
-201 tickets are to be sold so numbers 0~201
-there is no profit for me :D
-one person can buy a max of 3 tickets
-5 numbers will be drawn ONLY if half of the tickest are sold to ensure big prizes so rounded up 101 tickets must me sold.

Game on, and enjoy (and admin may wish to regulate that i'm not scamming everyone such as sahde :D).

Feel free to ask any questions

Also if all tickets are sold the first prize is over 1 million CB, so it would be wonderful if everyone participated

Ragatag May 7 2006 7:21 PM EDT

Just so you know like i said there is no profit for me, this is to help spread wealth among CBers and also to make my life really hard.

its only 10k thats pocket change!

Ox [StephenMelinda Gates Fund] May 7 2006 7:27 PM EDT

Ironic since this is technically consolidating the wealth.

didnt realize 8 was taken already so i pick 32 instead for it!

Mem May 7 2006 10:49 PM EDT

Why are prizes 4 and 5 the same? And I refuse to enter this contest because you're a solicitor. Don't spam my CM, or anyone else's for that matter. You made a post. Leave it at that.

Ragatag May 7 2006 10:53 PM EDT

mem brings a good point prize 5 will be changed to 50% of the remaining money of prize 4. sorry guys, also there is no number 201, its a typo. only numbers 0~200 which makes 201

A Bathing Ape May 7 2006 11:05 PM EDT

if you make prize #5 50% of prize #4 then there will be some left over cash. Maybe you should make a prize #6 which would be whats left over. Then someone will point out that prize 6 and 5 are equal so then you will make a prize #7.

Mem May 7 2006 11:06 PM EDT

Perhaps you could just do the math and figure out that prize 4 should be 75% of what is left, and then prize 5 would be the remainder.

Ragatag May 7 2006 11:07 PM EDT

stop criticizing the prize system, the remaining money will probably go towards one of the CB funds around somewhere, or i will think of something

Ragatag May 7 2006 11:08 PM EDT

Once again another change Prize 4 will be 75% of the remaining money of prize 3 and prize 5 will be the left over money. sorry for teh trouble.

A Bathing Ape May 7 2006 11:15 PM EDT

i swear...my solution would have made things easier.

Ragatag May 8 2006 2:20 AM EDT

technically wouldnt it be 202 tickets being sold if all were to be sold? lol.

Ragatag May 8 2006 5:51 PM EDT

yes i already addressed that!

Ragatag May 8 2006 5:54 PM EDT

According to my updated excel sheet, there are excatly 50 tickets sold thats 51 more to go before number picking begins

DD34isback(justkidding) [Severswoed Accounting] May 8 2006 5:56 PM EDT

wait for 100 i want 1mil....

Ragatag May 8 2006 5:57 PM EDT

actually its 201 thats the max tickets and then the grand prize is 1 mil, with 100 it would be 500k i think. if i was to draw the numbers now the grand prize is 250k

Ragatag May 9 2006 4:51 PM EDT

thanks for every who have already bought a ticket, i was wondering if people would mind if i take part of the grand prize of being my character since i realized i would have to cough up over 200k so the grand prize is 75% of the total profit made, if there is any problems please CM me and complain!.

p.s. 63 tickets sold, 2 days left till numbers a drawn

Vaynard [Fees Dirt Cheap] May 9 2006 4:58 PM EDT

Personally, I could care less about the character and say you can keep it, I'm just interested in cash. Isn't it a little late to be changing contest rules and reducing the prize amounts by 200k?

Dudley Dotson May 9 2006 5:12 PM EDT

Yea Just keep the character

Ragatag May 9 2006 7:37 PM EDT

im not reducing contest prizes by 200k im increasing the grand prize while taking off the character since my character isn't actually worth anything, i figured why i would spend like 300k for xfer fees

kevinLeong May 10 2006 4:49 AM EDT

I'd much rather have a higher grand prize than a cheezy character LOL. Sounds like a solid idea to me.

Ragatag May 10 2006 4:57 PM EDT

one day left

Ragatag May 10 2006 7:00 PM EDT

Just so all those who bought the tickets know that there are so changes to prizes

1: 75% of total money
2: same
3: same
4: 75% of remaining 3rd prize
5: rest of the $

there is 1 day left, numbers will be drawn tmmr, when i ever i log on, and there are aproximately 67 tickets sold.

thats a grand prize of over 500k i think

Ragatag May 11 2006 12:45 AM EDT

No one is going to buy tickets anymore so a new post will be made of winners i will draw the numbers now!
