I just want to share my views cause I see people always knocking on Lottery's.
In this game we try to make money, be it ratting, mining trading... People get very creative on how they try to make their money by providing service or goods. I happen to have seen the lottery's being run and I thought i would give it a whirl. I think its a better way to make money than going out there and trying to rip someone off selling them a Caracal at Cerberus price. I'm trying to take the honest route.
As far as making money, I applaud you for noticing that I am going to make some money it was a tough one to figure out. What you are not taking into account is someone else will be making a good chunk of change themselves. I am getting paid for my spending my time coordinating this effort. Everyone else is playing this like a poker game or visit to casino. They are putting in a little bit of money for a chance to make a whole lot more. Like in a lottery, casino or poker game not everyone wins!!! This is for the gambling person that is trying to have a little fun.
That is the great thing about this game, you can try different things to succeed. Everyone has to try different ideas to find out what best fits them! Find what fits you, cause I hope your role is not just complaining about others trying!
Good Luck to all that want to take a gamble!

YAR! i wish someone like you would have posted that in my lottery threads. i keep being called an Alt and given suggestions, which to me sounds like ideas to make scams.

I see nothing wrong with the lottery. In fact I might put my cynabal up for lottery. ------------------------------------------------

There's nothing wrong with making profit... but imo... if you try to make 2x profit off the lottery, it's a bit lame.
If you took say 20%, i am sure no one had a problem with it, since it requires effort to run it.

If you look at it in a different light, however, one of the people on his list is going to make even more than he did!

This is why I am using the Illinois State Lottery Mega Ball game to select the number. I have no control of the what is being used. I don't even get to touch the program or numbers they have. This is honest lottery drawing.

And there is no such thing as a random number generator. Nothing a computer program does is random, it always has to follow some algorithm. Dont most people use lottery numbers, be it national or state....then link to that.
In fact this guy has.....only just noticed.
My only concern with lotteries is that they could be scams, I mean what actual guanrantee to you have?

Not to spoil the ranting on "omg its scam, he makes too much money" after all it is just 2 mil out of your pocket... if you cant afford to give up that amount oh well :P not a big loss even if he doesn't pick a winner. Though, since I have stage fright... I am not going to be the first lotto picker :P

If the lottery does not fill up, I will refund everyone's money.
These BS's will be located in Jita (Empire).
this is why I have selecte a Alt to receive the money, so it is easier to track and refund the money if needed.
