Wait, crap, 36 wasn't the answer, sorry...okay, the answer was 39, I'm sorry...I'm going to come up with a new rule and number
|
|
|
Nope, sorry, also, one guess per person
|
|
|
My number is a number between 1 and 50 that is either divisible by 3, or has a square root that is a whole number, but not both. You can post your address after winning for speed EDIT: I got 36 and 39 messed up. The new rule is a number that has a prime square root

Well, this raffle certainly went a bit better than my last, now that I have a good system worked out, I will try again soon

Awesome, thank you very much. Ive been wearing out the Btc Faucets, it takes about a week and 1/2 to get BTC0.01. No complaints tho, I also Mine Litecoin at 23khs of 3 cpu's. 1.5Months = 1 Ltc. I know I wont make money but I like Crypto and will continue on maybe I can get lucky and win one of these raffles to get some mining equipment. At the rate Im goin now it will take about 2 years to generate 1 Btc. Im excited, already been cussed for wasting electricity the big boys (rigs) could have been using. Im not gonna quit tho.
Thanks again n00ber
Until I got this my new GPU, I was only at about 29khs for LTC, but fortunately I got on FC and DGC and made money from mining those early

Okay, the prize has been sent to n00ber and he has confirmed payment
|
|
|
so did I confirm before the block or what,
Yes, I said you did...Unfortunately you didn't win, sorry
|
|
|
Congrats to (I was wrong, with my math at first, but the winner is still n00ber), you win again...I'd say you're luck but you had 62.5% of the tickets so it was sort of in your favor
|
|
|
I'm still waiting on the next block, after that it will only take a few minute for me to find and confirm the winner
|
|

did I get in on time
A bit late, but I'll let you have it as long as I receive the unconfirmed payment before the next block is mined on http://blockchain.info/, otherwise I will return it when it arrives, thanks, watch the spreadsheet
|
|
|
Okay...Ticket sales are closed Watch http://blockchain.info/ for the next block, 240154, then the winner will be announced

Okay, thanks again for the help... hambalan, I was going to use the last two numerical digits (0-9) of the hash, I'm not sure if you got that, but it seems like you probably did and the numbers aren't evenly distributed in a decimal system.
So now I have switched from my system to assign each ticket a number from 1 to 100 and am going to just do what you said. Each ticket has a number starting from zero, and I will take the last two alpha-numeric characters of the block hash and convert them into decimals, then determine the winner by using H modulo T=W, where H=decimal value of last two hash characters, T=tickets sold and W= winning ticket number
Once again, thanks for your help

Okay, 18 hours until drawing...The current prize amount is BTC.155, so .07142 (odds of winning with one ticket)*.155(prize amount)=0.01107=prize if it were shared between ticket buyers. 0.01107/0.005(price of ticket)=221.4% payout, or a negative 121.4% "house" edge Will anyone buy a ticket now?
|
|
|
Great, the prize is now at BTC0.155 with 14 tickets sold Anyone else want in?
|
|
|
For their help with setting up a provably fair system for the raffle, I am giving hambalan an spooranchr a free ticket, this brings the prize to 0.095
