Maybe a feature which would allow you to disable the feature for a member? Because I already see I am spending too much on this :-/

How about a link that takes you to a page, which shows all the winners and how much they won, either for each day, week or all time.

I store all the tickets bought, and all numbers drawn, so I can retrieve them at any time.

Just as an FYI, no one has hit it even unordered yet. (Even if the system scanned for it as a winner). I just scanned through them all to check that out.

After this hour's raffle, I will be lowering the odds. I will be making the numbers pickable as 1 to 25, which lowers the odds from 1:42000 to 1:13800

Someone's gonna win big. wink.gif

[edit] Well, maybe, gonna think about it more.

Some Proposals to improve this lottery:

1. The chance to win should be ~ 1:2000
2. The payment of 5 FG should be splitted that way. 1 FG to bank, 3 FG to Pot, 1 FG to pot for next round.
3. The starting pot should be minimum 1000 FG (as it is now)

The result would be: on average the pot will be won at 6000 FG, if so next round starts with 2000 FG and 2000 FG to the bank

Thinkabout it, btw u have to change it or no one will win this pot.
On average the pot will grow up to ~128.000 FG before someone wins it.
And sry that amount is ridiculess and beside, is there enough FG in Forum ^^ to reach this amount.

** Every two hours I will be removing one number from the max numbers that you can select, down to 1-25. This should increase the odds of someone winning sooner.

You've been warned. wink.gif
