Originally by: TornSoul As I was going to the FanFest, I decided I might as well try and "spam" the venue area a bit to see if we could get some more tickets sold.
So we put up posters (spammed) the venue area in high-traffic places (the venue *was* called Jita IV afterall)
Pic1
Didn't take pictures of them all - But heres a few (and the last couple are actually acciential, only noticed when going through my FF pics )
BTTL1 BTTL2 BTTL3 BTTL4 BTTL5 Can you spot it? BTTL6 Bit easier on this one
It was quite interesting, that when we went around putting up the posters, we got approached by people everytime, and had a quick chat about the BTTL. It definatly seems awareness is there (ie. as far as I recall, everyone knew what it was about)
--
I've given it a weeks time, in order to be able to see if it has had any effect on ticket sales at all.
So did it?
Err - No
Not entirely unexpected tbh.
But I thought it was worth a shot, seeing as I was going to FF anyhow
---
And theres more (and better ) stuff in the pipe line yet (still unsure if it will all go as planned etc - But we'll see)
Worst milking attempt, ever...

People who bought tickets to this are fail, BIG are brilliant. They've never actually risked anything, or invested anything, but have made people hand them 100-s of billions of ISK. While most of the coercing is done by the players' peers, not BIG itself.
It would take 10-odd of these triple titan lotteries, which computes to several years apparently, for them to legitly earn the money they've already been trusted with. I think it's already a done deal that there will be no titans drawn (hardly even to shills as a spectacle), but as posting once a month with vague promises is enough to lure a couple more ticket buyers in, I suppose it's worth keeping the thread and hopes alive. All in all, very impressive job by BIG.

not sure about everyone else but im quite enjoying the thread now. 10m to watch the show seems pretty reasonable tbh.
if its a scam then the isk's lost.... but, if its real, you dont get drawn and the isk's lost. people are *****ing like this was a sure thing.
what are you complinaing about, youve got 2 lotteries for the price of one. is it real? 50/50 - will you win? much worse odds there.

Congrats. Your last post said nothing, added nothing, resolved nothing, and had a calorie count of 0 (so you've got that going for ya, which is nice).
I've noticed that you are most likely to post after the accusation of SCAM gets loud enough. Then you chum the water a bit.
Doesn't appear to be working this time though. It's over. Face it. It didn't work. Refunds all around. |

Originally by: Kel Nissa Edited by: Kel Nissa on 24/08/2009 23:13:31 Its simple: Get the peoples trust back. (You are already on track there)
And convince them that its their own interest to find other players willing to participate the lottery :) Without enough players -> 6 month to wait. So its really the best interest of all players to find more participants.
Its all about marketing :)
Create a sig for participants - probably this will draw some attention.
Edit:
Quote: If this lottery was about a single titan, I wouldn't be the least bit of interested.
This!
Quoting for truth. Also i will be buying between 100-200 tickets over the weekend Lets see if we cant get the ball rolling :D

I still don't believe this is a scam. But even with someone buying 200-1000 Tickets alone, this won't help. This Lottery will never end, because no one will buy more tickets. Some Think this is a scam and post that ofc here, some think "this will never end anyway, so i won't put more money in it" (like me). Thats why this Lottery will never be sold out.

Now you too can join the fun in the Market Discussion thread.
Torn: what will you do if the lottery doesn't sell out in the next 6 months? What if it doesn't sell in the next 12 months?
You owe it to us to be straightforward. Your continual avoidance of the issue does you no good, does us no good, does the situation no good. The fact that you treat your customers with such contempt and disrespect is proof that you don't deserve whatever good reputation you've managed to garner.
It would also be nice if BIG alts stopped posting like they were real customers (idiolectics). |

Lol - You really are quite the litte attention craving Duracell Bunny aren't you
Well, this once (I'm in that kinda mood today), let me make your attention craving little day (sorta )
---
Just because you open your gab and blabber on, or anyone else for that matter - blabber or not, it doesnt mean that there suddenly is anything new to report.
If there is news/changes I'll post. If not, I don't particularly feel compelled nor required to post - Just to repeat what I said in my last (or previous) post(s). If this isnt enough to fuel your need for attention - Tough luck really. And I especially don't feel compelled to post/reply to anything, when the tone is such as yours - Quite the contrary (thats a hint btw)
I have little patience for idiots - Intelligent/interesting questions on the other hand... Some will call that bad customer service - I call it not letting my time be unnecessarily wasted.
And you've yet to ask something that isn't already answered - The one exception was in the MD forum, to which I replied. ---
Let me repeat from my last post : "Things are being worked on". When (and indeed if) those plans comes to fruition, you will be informed. Until then, sit tight.
---
Happy now?
(That's called a rhetorical question OK )

Oh and - Alt posting. ROFL. The irony....

Has anyone been able to verify their purchase? I sent ISK the 11th, used the IGB w/ trusted site, and no ticket is found.

Try and remove the site from the trusted list - and then re-add it.
Very annoying bug - But out of my hands to do anything about.
If it still doesnt work... You might want to double/triple check who you sent the ISK to, and if the text in the reason box was correct.

Edited by: Dumb Jerk on 15/10/2009 20:02:52 Well, well, the high and mighty finally responds. I think a majority of people would say that a month old post doesn't count as an update. Saying "something is being worked on" is about as much of an update as a newscaster saying "something happened today." Your general attitude sucks. You can't even bring yourself to deal with your clients politely. If you haven't handled this in the month since you last posted, why should anyone believe that you ever will? What could possibly hold you up for over a month? What could possibly take that long to "work on"?
So, I ask again: What will you do if the tickets don't sell in 6 months? What if they don't sell in 12 months? They're simple questions. Answer them. |

Even though he does post and post and post he does have a pont torn you do side step questions with answers like "i answered that in my last post" which is a month old you seem to be doing jack all to get this sorted and in no way willing to refund anything to anyone so yes as everyone keeps saying you are scamming everyone and never plan to give our isk back eith say yes you scammed everyone or refund the tickets (with no admin fee) it's not our fault you ****ed up.

OMG. What's the idiot. I beg you STFU, will ya? If you were such a moron who couldnt even read Terms of Lottery before buying the damn tickets, its only and ONLY your problem, and TS has absolutely nothing to do with it. Terms of lottery are not containing any info on the timeframe of lottery. Got it ? No time information, comprende ? If it will take 100 years, so be it. It doesnt violates Terms of lottery, which YOU were AGREED to at the moment of buying the freaking tickets. Therefore stop whining and go to do your homework.
Hint: The problems which you are referring to are DNA related, unfortunately. Check out chromosome #21.

It's really quite simple. Instead of random people shouting into the thread that the Terms of the Lottery are clearly stated, why doesn't Torn/BIG state that? In fact, that's the one thing they've never said. Torn said that he's "working on a solution." Which implies that, in fact, the terms of the lottery will change. So, if you're going to get all hostile (you really are a punk btw), why don't you take your brilliant () legal mind and follow the logic all the way through?
Again, 2 simple questions for BIG and Torn. What will you do if the tickets don't sell in 6 months? What will you do if the tickets don't sell in 12 months?
If the answer is, "we're gonna keep going until all of the tickets sell, even if they never do" just say it, Torn. Why WOULDN'T you say that, if those are the terms of the lottery? Its obvious, right? Because then no one would buy them.

Longest lottery I've been in was 3 and half months. Patience is a virtue. There is a hudge amount of tickets to get sold. Give it time, and it'll eventually go through. If you needed that isk so bad youreself you shouldnt have bound it up in a lottery you are most likely to loose anyway
