What is a AT lottery? Well, Clockwork Pineapple has decided that we want to raise some additional funds heading into this alliance tournament in expectation of progressing farther into the tournament then we did in our inaugural run last year. We did quite well despite it being our first run, finally getting knocked out after getting surprised by a clever bit of comping on Verge of Collapse's part.
Why are we doing this? Well, last year we stockpiled just shy of 50b isk on ammo, drones, ships and mods for our run which we already have matched this year. However we'd like to have a bit more isk on backup just in case its needed. This allows us to have more comps set up and ready to go, giving us much more immunity from bans and various other tactics like market manipulation.
We're going to be offering a lottery with 100 tickets, each one 250m each. So, what does your ticket give you a chance of winning? Well, that all depends on how far we get. If we win at least one match, we will be handing out 10 of the limited edition painted rattlesnake hulls. If we get into the top 32, we will be distributing the 5 plex. If we get into the top 16, we will hand out 5 prizes of 3 plex each. If by some combination of luck, skill and determination (With a bit of help from generous sponsors like you of course ;)) we reach the final 4 and are awarded blueprints for the Whiptail and Chameleon, we will hand out one of each hull. In the unlikely event that we somehow win nothing, we will be using the stockpile of unused fits and ships to refund all ticket purchases. Prizes will be awarded even in the event that all tickets are not purchased.
Now, I'm sure there are some people wondering who we are and what makes us think we're worth you buying tickets to our lottery. Well, we have a very experienced team who not only competed in the last Alliance Tournament, but we also have many members that have competed in both NEO tournaments and all SCL matches on teams like No Boundaries and Rep Cartel. We have a reputation as a small gang PVP entity which bases in syndicate and has historically sparred against well known Syndicate groups like Rote Kapelle, Huzzah Federation, Ev0ke, Ineluctable and Agony Unleashed.
Also, have the videos from our last AT run! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mBmdL5S2J5A https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fCd8ggqJlNw https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_ldgojk2mHg https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nbPfy3fBbIg https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FVgki6chF7g
If you would like to purchase a ticket, Please send the isk to the corporation Life. Universe. Everything. with the reason of AT XII Lottery followed by the ticket numbers you are purchasing (So a purchase of tickets 4 and 20 would look like AT XII Lottery 4,20) and post in this thread with the tickets you would like to purchase along with the name of the character sending the isk in game. If you have any questions or concerns, feel free to message me in game and I'll be happy to discuss them with you, and good luck to all of us!
Tickets 1. 2. 3. 4. 5. 6. 7. 8. 9. 10. 11. 12. 13. 14. 15. 16. 17. 18. 19. 20. 21. 22. 23. 24. 25. 26. 27. 28 29. 30. 31. 32. 33. 34. 35. 36. 37. 38. 39. 40. 41. 42. 43. 44. 45. 46. 47. 48. 49. 50. 51. 52. 53. 54. 55. 56. 57. 58. 59. 60. 61. 62. 63. 64. 65. 66. 67. 68. 69. 70. 71. 72. 73. 74. 75. 76. 77. 78. 79. 80. 81. 82. 83. 84. 85. 86. 87. 88. 89. 90. 91. 92. 93. 94. 95. 96. 97. 98. 99. 100. |

There is no way to have a 3rd party holding the prizes given that CCP hasn't awarded them yet. However I will be enlisting a 3rd party to take possession of the prizes as we are gifted them from CCP, who will eventually be distributing the prizes. Effectively, this is us crowd sourcing the isk. And instead of doing it like a normal loan, we're having a bit of fun and running it as a lottery instead. |

Next up: goon AT lottery.
As Ihcn mentioned, I'm the CEO of the second largest Corp in our alliance. I'm also one of the AT participants. Though if you would like, I would happily have the CEO of our executor alliance post in this thread to confirm that this is indeed sponsored by the alliance. |

The list is updated, Thanks to everyone so far that has purchased tickets. We've been able to pick up several spare comps and ships to alternate in if the main ship is banned, but more is always better! |

I sent 250m on August 2nd for #15 as AT XII 15 and also put up a post on here a few days ago and yet I still don't see me down on that ticket... Edit: Disregard that, just found out that I'm stupid and didn't see that someone posted for that number before me, is it possible to change to #60?
Apparently I missed you. You've been added on ticket 15, since the first person sent no isk to the corp wallet and hasn't responded to me. |

Never mind, I found it in my wallet. Please make sure you send it to the corp's wallet, not mine. I've transfered the isk back to the corp wallet and I'm adding you to the ticket list. |

Greg Valenti wrote:Out of curiosity, if all tickets are not sold will the drawing be redone if an unpurchased ticket number is selected, or what?
This is a good question. If an unpurchased ticket is selected, we will be redrawing a number for that prize. The lottery ends once Clockwork is pushed out of the tournament, regardless of how many tickets are purchased. |

Yeah, I just updated the list after the match. My appologies for being somewhat innactive in this thread. We've had some unexpected time drains right before the AT for us. |

That was the fun part, its actually true that you wouldn't be able to secure prizes beforehand. Though I'm sure that you could have CCP work with someone like Chribba to actually set it up so that any prizes won are handed to a 3rd party for distribution if a smaller group wanted to try this in the future as a legitimate fundraising endeavour. |
