Originally by: E8400 heh Simple solution cut profits down to a reasonable size, I dunno bout the rest of you. But BIG is making more then 20billion isk off of each one of these things!! That is IF he bought them. Building them profit margin is even higher!!
Sorry but these lotteries are no diffrent from any other scam... You know the ones... You pay 100m isk for something that costs 50m is or so. Atleast the normal scams are transparent... 1 Person wins the other person loses. This lets see ohh 3 people might win but 29997 will lose.
I concur, cut your profits and do this one for a insane fame reward. You still come out on top.

Originally by: Mova B Well TornSoul decide or refund all ISK... Or this will be just epic fail...
I think this can be easily remedied.
It is not just BIG that is feeling the pinch, with so many lotteries the market has been saturated.
Drawing 3 winners for isk prizes would be fair, and still a great prize.
Regarding the profit comment, there is alot of work involved in organising lotteries, I'm can't really comment for Torn, but for mine i was on the computer every second of the day for almost 3 weeks making sure everything was working, and doing all the admin. Although the logistics of this lotto is probably less, his time should still be worth something and I would not begrudge him making some isk.
*EDIT: And refunding all the isk... 10,000 tickets would take longer than a week to refund probably lols!
-T'amber
What isk prize ? I paid for a 3 titan lottery not some crappy isk lucky draw. And time spend well don't try and pull something off if you don't have time for it. And as for refunding the isk, that's just suicide cause nobody will buy another BIG lottery then.

I also want a refund now...or at least some word from the OP.
I think people are more concerned with his inactivity and lack of face to actually hold his hands up and say this has failed.
Arnt there now "Rumours" that the Titan owners have backed out of the deal?
Originally by: T'Amber 11.421 tickets sold :| Getting closer
Big has been around for along time - longer than all the other 30+ lottos running atm, I expect there is some RL issues effecting his ability to log in. I highly doubt he would take the isk.
-T'amber
I highlighted the key points for you
As any FYI Tornsoul was on these very forums less than 48hrs ago, posting this topic: Posted - 2009.09.07 23:00:00 - [4] - Quote Report Dear mods
These many posts are reserved to list the results. They unfurtunatly take up an awfull lot of space.
Have a look at past BIG Betting threads to see : [BIG Betting] AT6 [BIG Betting] AT5 [BIG Betting] AT4
3/7
ugh.. 5 minutes between posts... Think I'll settle for just reserving 3 posts and somehow fit it in there.. or forward link to other posts in the thread...
Seems like this thread is being ignored then and maybe he hopes everyone will withdraw their tickets and bag the "administration fee" for withdrawing tickets as a prize.

Eat your losses and make the draw already. The longer you wait, the more you lose what little credibility you have left.

I wonder if this guy has even read the thread.
They aren't the ones with the titans, thay are simply holding the lottery for someone else. If they change the rules without the titans owners permission they are breaching contract and that will destroy ALL of their creditability.
It does not matter whos or what or which is the owner of the titans, people will only remember Ohh that BIG lottery as in BIG. It's like if you go to Mac'Ds and the coffee is worst then ever, you don't know or even bother to know that it's Fairtrade labelled coffee beans that is bad, it's Mac'D coffee that you remember. And if you look at the lottery it is sold and run by BIG as the BIG epic triple titan draw as was advertised.

That doesn't change the fact that they're under contract and have to do what they're doing until they get permission to do something else, otherwise no one will ever do business with them again. Just like Mc.ds can't searve another brand of coffee untill their contract with their current supplier expiers. :P
You obviously know nothing about fastfood or fairtrade.. 1st fairtrade is not a brand it's a label used by many brands under certain agreements....just like oxfam is not a brand but a label which is also used by many brands, 2nd MacD's and fairtrade do not have a executive agreement :) try again. Anyway fact remains BIG reputation is gone based on this lottery either the said titans or the lottery will take place now and trying to charge for refunds is yet another ripoff. At this point, tornsoul would be better off pocketing the iskies and telling everyone to just gtfo :P cause the reputation is gone anyway.

Originally by: McBelch Edited by: McBelch on 06/10/2009 23:58:39 But with one thing we all (The Hopefull, the Hopeless, The Flamers, The Flamerfighters) agree, I think: A Solution anytime soon is very important for those who bought Tickets and for BIGs Reputation, which has suffered hard already.
\ BIGs rep is already gone. Logical choice :P Take iskies and run.. REFUND THE ISKIES BIG or RUN just do it already.

As "whatever" as Dumb Jerk may sound to people, he does make one valid arguement thou. Why does TS make annoucements about " things are being worked on " when TS says he won't change the lotto contract? All in all, this whole lotto does sound like a pretty good scam.
1. 30K tickets will never sell now, only a fool would think it could. 2. TS -> I won't change the contract but things are being worked on. 3. TS replies on any other one of his threads while totally ignoring this thread. ( click on his portrait and check the posts he has made ) 4. No end in sight and rumours of the Titan owners having pulled out and one of them already lost. ( no official reply )
At this point, I am inclined to think TS is just dragging it along to scam more dumb asses who actually would buy a ticket or two then one day he will announce " Thank you for all the fish everyone. "
Just my 2cents and no I don't care what your flame or thought is only what TS has to say.
