-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

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!
Ironic since this is technically consolidating the wealth.

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

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

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
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

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
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?
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!
