Okay. I'm going to try something new.

Buy a raffle ticket at 0.01 bitcoins apiece (you can get 0.05 coins from the faucet.), and get your friends to participate too, so that we can actually have a jackpot to win....(put raffle ticket in the message)
On June 1st, I'll draw the winners. #1 will get 40% of profits, #2 will get 15%, #3 will get 10%, #4 will get 5%, and #5 will get 2%.
Yes, the more tickets you buy, the higher chance of winning you have.

-If 10 people buy a ticket, the first place winner will get 0.04 bitcoins. (4x your ticket price)
-If 20 people buy a ticket, the first place winner will get 0.08 bitcoins. (8x your ticket price)
-If 50 poeple buy a ticket, the first place winner will get 0.20 bitcoins. (20x your ticket price)
-If 100 people buy a ticket, the first place winner will get 0.40 bitcoins. (40x your ticket price)



The price to enter is so small (1 bitcent) that i think it's worth a try, dont you?
The only way you're going to win any money is by spreading the word and by getting people to buy tickets. (I recommend you buy 2 for yourself)

Send ticket money to 12jQTHCWF6r8kU36DjTCjtzpPyAwHzp7Bv    (put raffle ticket in the message)
Donations to the raffle are also appreciated.

 ;D I bought one!

Great that the entry is so cheap. Means the winnings will be lower too though.
Remember there is also BitLotto - so far the winner in a few days is going to win over 110 BTC.

Problems I see though:
-no mention of how you are picking the winner -how are you guaranteeing you are being fair?
-the way you are instructing the players to enter, some will lose their money, and you will have no idea who's money it is
-not all people can put "raffle" in "the message". How are you telling what's a raffle ticket and what's a donation?

Anyways good luck. (Seems pretty similar to BitLotto! )
