Hitomi Ayame	Posted - 2006.05.09 22:39:00 - [38] Not meaning to flame, but to generate interest among newer players you might consider lowering the price just a bit, and selling a few more tickets to compensate. Then again, of the many lotteries I've seen, this one looks particularly solid, especially the bit about using RL lottery numbers to pick the winner. Anyway, free bump for you. - - - 'Till human voices wake us, and we drown.
Fley Allstar	Posted - 2006.05.10 04:32:00 - [39] Thanks for the free bump Hitome! Yay i have considered lowering the number price, but in doing so the grand prize of 100 million isks would not really be achievable, and the grand prize was the main motivation of this lottery, as this lottery was meant to give newer players the chance to own a battleship in a shorter period of time, and most T1 Battleships in Eve would cost about 100 million isks. However i appreciate your suggestion that i should open up more tickets to compensate for lowering the price, and i would surely take that into consideration if this lottery fails to take off for the first season. Thanks for all the support! Fley
Lost Minnity	Posted - 2006.05.10 07:49:00 - [40] T2 Battleships cost ~100mil, but T1 Bs would be in the region of 50-70mil.

Rajon Kelper	Posted - 2006.05.21 19:51:00 - [59] you do realize that that 47mil something ISK you make a month if the lottery sells out throws off the entire lottery, right? Because you take that much off the top, the chance/investment ratio drops like a rock. You simply cant take that much off, because it makes the 3.5mil ISK one might put into the lottery not worth the potential 100mil ISK from a 2.22% chance of winning it. You should drop the ticket price to 2.5mil ISK per ticket to make the chance worth the investment. That'd put the total pot (if sold out) to 112.5mil ISK, and with the grand prize and the extra 10mil, would work out nicely. --------------------------------------------------- "The art of war is simple enough. Find out where your enemy is. Get at him as soon as you can. Strike him as hard as you can, and keep moving."
Fley Allstar	Posted - 2006.05.21 20:52:00 - [60] Edited by: Fley Allstar on 21/05/2006 20:52:55 Hi Rajon Kelper, While it is true to say that should the lottery sell out, i would be able to reap 47.5 million isks in profit, the reason why i set the price at 3.5 million is not because of profit reasons. Since i am running on a timeframe, and also due to the high possibility of not selling out like hot cakes (due to many people who are scam-paranoid), i projected that with luck only 50% of the available numbers would be sold out within the timeframe of a month. This is after studying the other lotteries around which offer great items as grand prizes. Those lotteries are still running after like 2 months in the forum, waiting to be sold out so the lottery can take place. For people who support those lotteries, the wait would be like infinite and no hint of when will they see their prize (assuming that they even win). Meanwhile their isks rest in the hands of another person who's doing god-knows-what with their isks(just a thot, no slander intended). So with the projection of only a possible 50% of all 45 numbers to be sold, and the main motive of the Small RichesÖ Lottery, which is to provide the winner with the grand prize of 100 million isks, i have set a minimum of 32 numbers to be sold so that the Lottery would not run at a loss to myself. (32 x 3.5million = 112 million isks). For the first season itself, to promote the Small RichesÖ Lottery as a reliable and scam-free lottery series, i have lowered the minimum number of numbers sold for the Lottery to run to be 25/45, which would actually incur me a loss (25 x 3.5 = 87.5 million isks), as i understand the need for the Small RichesÖ Lottery to have a good basic reputation. The main motive of the price of the numbers and minimum number to be sold is all purely so that Eve players who support the Lottery can see their winnings in a month guranteed (or all their isks returned without any obligations if the Lottery fails to get the minimum number of participants). Besides i have plans for Small RichesÖ Lottery to include other prizes should i reap any profits from it being sold-out (which i tink unlikely to be sold out), so that supporters of the RichesÖ series of Lotteries can also benefit in the long-run. One last thing to add, profits is not exactly what i set out to do, please understand that i purely want to make this Lottery fun for Eve players and at the same time not make a loss while providing this Lottery service. 47.5 million isks can be earned in half a day ratting in 0.0 space (ask the veterans) and if i am interested in isks alone i would not have bothered to do this Lottery, and instead concentrating on ratting. Hopefully my explanation thus far has sated any insatisfactions which you have observed.. Thanks for your comments Rajon i really appreciate it, as i hope to improve the RichesÖ series of Lotteries in the long-run, and players' input is always impt :) Have fun in Eve, and Good luck once again to all participants! Fley p/s 18/45 numbers have been taken, another 7 more to be taken to declare the Lottery "Live". Come Join In Da Fun! :D
