Title: Re: [Interest Check]Super-Mega Raffle Post by: cryptoheadd on May 24, 2016, 10:52:54 PM I am planning to do this raffle soon. It's an everyone wins kind of raffle. It will involve roughly 15BTC in prizes. Thanks to TheNewAnon135246 for the idea. How much are you planning to charge per ticket? Title: Re: [Interest Check]Super-Mega Raffle Post by: ezeminer on May 24, 2016, 11:01:55 PM Somewhere around 1BTC depending on how big the prize pool is. total goodies I estimated at 17BTC currently.
Title: Re: [Interest Check]Super-Mega Raffle Post by: owlcatz on May 24, 2016, 11:12:08 PM I'm with minerjones on this one - 1 btc is a lot to many of us - I am still trying to figure out if I want to buy one of those new BTCC titanium coins as well, so now I'm on hold for a bit, until I see what your prizes may be... Looking forward to that part!? :D
Title: Re: [Interest Check]Super-Mega Raffle Post by: ezeminer on May 24, 2016, 11:28:50 PM Yes. I would play, but maybe make the tickets a little lower or more tickets... I can probably get it down to 0.5 per ticket with 32 tickets, I'll just need to find more prizes.thanks Title: Re: [Interest Check]Super-Mega Raffle Post by: dazedfool on May 25, 2016, 01:25:43 AM Yes.

So everyone wins ;D ??? Title: Re: [Interest Check]Super-Mega Raffle Post by: MRBONG411 on May 25, 2016, 03:26:48 AM As always love the raffles but I will probably be priced out of this one.
Will be awesome to watch though. Title: Re: [Interest Check]Super-Mega Raffle Post by: ezeminer on May 25, 2016, 04:39:28 AM Yes.

Will be know the prices of the raffle or will it be a mystery?? I'll prefer to know them Title: Re: [Interest Check]Super-Mega Raffle Post by: ezeminer on May 25, 2016, 05:43:57 AM Great I'll release a list of all the prizes.Will be know the prices of the raffle or will it be a mystery??

I'll prefer to know them Great! look forward to it! Also , i hope that since ticket cost will be high and it might take time to fill all tickets - so probably just register name and then when all filled - take payment ?? Just what i think :) Title: Re: [Interest Check]Super-Mega Raffle Post by: ezeminer on May 25, 2016, 07:16:13 AM Great I'll release a list of all the prizes.Will be know the prices of the raffle or will it be a mystery??

Also , i hope that since ticket cost will be high and it might take time to fill all tickets - so probably just register name and then when all filled - take payment ?? Just what i think :) Registering names wouldn't be a bad idea. I'm also trying to find other fair ways to generate numbers other than blockchain. At the moment I could do 25 prizes varying from 0.06BTC to 4.0BTC. But it wouldn't evenly distribute chances among block hashes. For example (Block hash ending in): 0-8 0 - entrant A - meaning 00, 10, 20, 30, 40, 50, 60, 70, 80 9-f 0 - entrant B - meaning 90, a0, b0, c0, d0, e0, f0 0-8 1 - entrant C 9-f 1 - entrant D This would generate 32 tickets with even probabilities of winning.

So far with 25 prizes, tickets would be 0.64, if I had a fair way of generating numbers. Meaning I cannot alter the results. I tried (https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=951601.0) to run raffles for BTC in the games and rounds section, my way was to upload a small video of each drawing using a bitcoin gambling site for number generation and hashes as proof.

To tell you i didn't understood it at all :-\ I'll use real blocks as an example: Say the raffle used block 413332 then 413333 and so on and so on. Block #413333, the hash ended in "4d" Block #413332 ended in "50" So if you picked "0-8 0" you would get the first prize. If you picked "0-8 d" you would get the second prize. The entry list looks like this: Code: 0-7 0 - Person A Title: Re: [Interest Check]Super-Mega Raffle Post by: chronicsky on May 25, 2016, 08:09:16 AM Great I'll release a list of all the prizes.Will be know the prices of the raffle or will it be a mystery??

Your hex calculations are broken. There would be significant higher probability to hit entrant A and C versus entrant B and D. Instead use 0-7 and 8-F for the second last nibble.

Thanks, I just noticed that when you mentioned it. Will update Title: Re: [Interest Check][Prize List Available]Super-Mega Raffle Post by: chronicsky on May 25, 2016, 09:09:55 AM The first 5 Casascius is just a estimation - i don't think they are that big worth :-\
0.5 BTC lol i want one ticket so much but i gotta think about it! Title: Re: [Interest Check][Prize List Available]Super-Mega Raffle Post by: ezeminer on May 26, 2016, 07:18:23 AM Just bumping to see if there is more interest. If not I will probably raffle off the top prizes individually.
