Yet another year has gone by with The BIG Lottery running non-stop round after round, and giving away billions each time.
We can now celebrate The BIG Lottery 9 year anniversary!
Nine years - Gosh...
In those 9 years
50.375 unique characters have bought
709.394.864 tickets in The BIG Lottery (which equals 709 billion ISK - and change)
I'm very happy we have finally reached the 50K unique characters milestone - That's huge!
For the 2nd year running, we've been able to keep a constant set of prizes throughout the year (7.5 billion ISK up for grabs each round)
Our friends at EOH (http://www.eohpoker.com), who have sponsored The BIG Lottery with 500M ISK each round is a contributor to making that possible.
Without the sponsorship we most certainly would have had to reduce prizes at some time.
So think kindly of EOH, or better yet, go give them a visit!
---This is a quote to make it stand out--- wrote:Important changes for the duration of the 9 year Anniversary Round
- The ticket cap has been raised to 200K tickets (200M ISK) per character (not account)
- 25 percent bio link bonus : The usual bio link bonus is not in effect
So what do we have to offer for the nine year anniversary round?
Some truly BIG prizes of course
---This is a quote to make it stand out--- wrote:The BIG Lottery 9 Year Anniversary prizes :
- 1st : 25B ISK + 12 months of free gametime
- 2nd : 10B ISK + 6 months of free gametime
- 3rd : 5B ISK + 3 months of free gametime
- Free gametime is sponsored by CCP - 3rd prize ISK is sponsored by EOH
Round #235 - The BIG Lottery 9 Year Anniversary round runs
from Monday, April 30th, 2012
to Sunday, May 13th, 2012
-- Only tickets bought in that timeframe are valid for the anniversary draw.
Round #235 drawing : Monday, May 14th, 2012, 1800 EVE time (GMT) in ingame channel 'BIG Games'.
Please be aware of all the scammers out there that sets up look-alike characters to try and scam you out of your ISK.
The character to send your ISK to is "BIG Games" and is a member of BIG - and no one else, no matter what they say.
Good Luck all. |

No longer the top news story sadly - That usually impacts ticket sales significantly. The earlier it happens, the more... ::sadface::
With the new nifty graph I've put on there, that should be very visible in a couple of days I think.

Easy to fix - once identified...

And as mentioned in my previous post - It is now very easy to see when exactly the BIG Lottery news post dropped from the top of the page.... |

So looked at your site seems you paid out around 10 billion but only collected 6 ish. Theres no way in hell I believe you are doing this at a loss. If you made sure the number one winner was always affiliated with the organization and paid off the smaller two to give some credibility, I guess that would make sense. Relitively easy 2bil a week. |
