how come only trusted members or donators win on all raffles?


If this is sarcasm, don't bother posting it. If this is a real question, it is because most of the people that enter the lottery are donors, therefore giving a better chance for a donor to win.


u dont know that.. like 70-80% people on this site have none donator trusted tag.. please leave this question for paul to answer not some wanna be admin thx.

If you want to be literal, then yes, the thousands of multi accounts aren't donors. I'll let Paul answer you now, keep in mind however, the numbers are random. Get over it, quit crying.

The numbers drawn are random.

As to why who is winning is winning, it's up to two things:
1) Luck.
2) Who is entering. If more donors/trusted enter than NON-donors/trusted, of course the odds are higher that they will win. I did a quick scan of who's buying tickets, and 83.289% of the tickets purchased were from people who have donated to the site.

So quit yer bitchin'.

Hey paul do you think you will consider splitting the fg gathered from the raffle in this way?

3 FG - Current Lottery
1 FG - Next Lottery
1 FG - Back to Site

I think you are making up for giw much you are putting in at the beginning of each raffle and i think that you could probably start splitting like this smile.gif

And what happens if say, there's a raffle, 40k in correct, 10k in next, then next comes up, people buy 10 ticket's and win it.. now the next is crap.

Flawed idea, sorry.

The pot increases 3 FG for every ticket purchased. The other 2 FG goes to the site.
