Jake the Sage Posted November 20, 2012 Report Share Posted November 20, 2012 [center][img]http://i570.photobucket.com/albums/ss142/Vexond/lottery.png[/img][/center] Ladies and Gentlemen of the forum of YCM! This page will be dedicated to the unofficial, hopefully official soon, YCM Lottery[size=1][sup]™[/sup][/size]. Here there will be basic rules on which you can pay for a lottery ticket, pick it out, and hopefully win the jackpot! [i][b]How do I Buy A Ticket?[/b][/i] Buying a ticket is simple, all you have to do is simply donate 500 points to the page owner (that would be me) which will go into the Lottery Pot [i][b]How do I Pick a Ticket?[/b][/i] Just pick 5 separate number between 1 and 10 in any order you choose and that will be your lottery ticket. However many tickets you buy you are able to pick that many set of numbers; an example would be paying 1000 points for two tickets. If it turns out there is more than one winner or winning becomes too simple the numbers you will have to choose between (currently 1-10) will increase by 10 and so on until it is at an appropriate difficulty. [i][b]What Can The Lottery Be?[/b][/i] The lottery jackpot can be as much as the people who enter into it. If one person enters then it will be 500 points, with no guarantee he or she will win. For each time there is no winner the lottery does not reset, instead the people of YCM will have to pay in for another ticket and another chance to win- this of course will increase the lottery jackpot again. [i][b]When does the Lottery drawn?[/b][/i] The Lottery will be drawn at first every Friday at a yet to be specific date. However the winning number WILL be put in my Status so you can always check there. [i][b]Is This A Scam?[/b][/i] While it would be benificial to me to use this as a scam and gain as much points as I can with it, I feel the risk of being caught is too much too risk- not to mention the Shop has nothing I desire. So while other people might be less than trustworthy, I assure you on Perma-Ban I will not use this as a scam.

Catterjune Posted November 20, 2012 Report Share Posted November 20, 2012 ... Wait? Do you guys want a lottery or something? Lemme check some adminCP stuff to see if we can have an official YCM lottery. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Also if you cannot I can continue doing it here Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Catterjune Posted November 20, 2012 Report Share Posted November 20, 2012 http://forum.yugiohcardmaker.net/index.php?app=ibEconomy&tab=cash WARNING: THIS MIGHT NOT WORK AS INTENDED BECAUSE LOLYCM I'd say wait until tomorrow (to see if the number goes down by one) to see if it actually happens. >_> It's set for 3 days.

Jake the Sage Posted November 20, 2012 Author Report Share Posted November 20, 2012 Well if it doesn't work would it be proper for me to continue the Lottery here? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zeppeli Gyro Supreme Posted November 20, 2012 Report Share Posted November 20, 2012 Typically when more than one person wins the pot is split, not redrawing... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Catterjune Posted November 20, 2012 Report Share Posted November 20, 2012 No idea if the pot splits or if it's a redrawing. If the "official" YCM lottery sucks ass, I guess you can do whatever. Heck, you can continue doing this if you want, though the YCM official one may be more convenient. IDK But then again, I only speak for myself.

[/quote] If it is two or three people winning the pot will be split. The difficulty in winning will only change when there are more than three people winning or people win too often; the latter will be done to increase the overall pot[quote name='Hatcher' timestamp='1353441242' post='6074220'] If the "official" YCM lottery sucks ass, I guess you can do whatever.

Lt. Colonel Remo Posted November 27, 2012 Report Share Posted November 27, 2012 Is there anyway to set up an event kind of lottery like the one Jake envisioned? Also, I'm going to get a gambling addiction ;_; Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What exactly did he envision that this one doesn't do? Other then price differences (this one is cheaper) and frequency (this one goes off every 3 days as opposed to every Friday) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lt. Colonel Remo Posted November 27, 2012 Report Share Posted November 27, 2012 I guess it serves as regular lottery I'm talking about a large community event. Should that just be done manually? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Catterjune Posted November 27, 2012 Report Share Posted November 27, 2012 I don't think there's ample interest in that, but if you all wanna try it anyway, go ahead. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
