Remember the drawing of the new, the 53rd 2 year anniversary, round of the BIG Lottery is on Monday, May 23th, 1800 EVE time (GMT) in ingame channel 'BIG Games'.
Should I be in channel during drawing? I can't be online that day, how will I be informed about winning?

Originally by: Ctharth I wired you guys 250.000 ISK yesterday. No reciepts even though you updated.. explanation?
i'd guess things are a little disorganised due to the massive volume theyve got atm :P i'm sure theyll get a receipt out to you soon...
on the random number side... wouldnt it be more logical (and less manipulatable) to use the numbers entered in the channel as a seed for a properly random number? tbh, my calculator can make a randomer (that a word? it should be) number than this method...

When i won the lottery I was not in that channel nor even online. The isk was wired to my account and an eve mail was sent congratulating me. They will also post the winner on the forums, so you can see who won. ---------------------
I'd like to do your sig. You may contact me in-game |

"Massive volume" : Indeed  "disorganised" : Definatly not - Just 'lagged' a bit by the aforementioned 'massive volume' (be patient for a couple of days, until the 'storm' has subsided a bit, making it possible for us to keep up again)

"Less manipulative"??? The approach we use excactly ensures that it cant be manipulated, either by us or by the participants.
"my calculator can make a randomer <snip> number" : Do tell how it can be more random, than X people each thinking up a number and entering them into the channel at the excact same time (no chance for anyone to coordinate their numbers and ensure those are picked)
If using the participant generated number(pgn) as a seed for some (online) generator - then we could just as well do without the pgn in the first place, and simply use a online generator - Which *would* be manipulative (as I'd simply be calling out the number - which I *could* just make up)
The method we use is, as said above, impossible to manipulate by anyone - and furthermore is verifiable by everyone at the same time (hence why it cant be manipulated)
The method is so sound, that I'd be willing to take any bet, from someone claiming to be able to 'beat it' - aka being able to manipulate it so they'd end up winning (yes thats a challenge )

I've deposited over 2 mil in isk (I read the rules and did it properly) and when I check my receipts page it says it was all a donation, I didn't get any tickets! I sent the money 2 days ago.

I sent 5m isk in on 5-16. Tried to view receipt page, but just comes up something about we have to verify who you are. Not sure how to check, am wondering, just becouse never got an evemail and from the looks of the posts, peoples isk are being put in as donations. Please let me know. Thanks

1: Check the date on the receipts page
A: If your purchase is after that date - It's not entered into the DB yet(*)
B: If it's before that date and your receipt doestn show - Please EVE Mail "BIG Games" with the excact timestamp and amount - and it will be looked in to. Most likely a typo has been made, so the DB cant find you.
(*) Theres so incredible many entries this round that we indeed are lagging quite behind with regards to getting the DB updated. Please bear with us, it's a HUGE amount of work typing it all in by hand. The DB is geeting updated in bulks - as we due to the amount of entries have to do things a bit differntly than usual (Ie having the DB updated daily)
Good Luck
