Hi everyone!
We would like to apologize to all the users who missed out on the first Olympics raffle due to it being drawn too early.
To compensate for that we have created a new raffle which will be drawn on the 15th of August. All users who made a bet on the Olympics from 05.08 to 08.08 will receive one ticket for an equal chance of winning a prize.
We are still looking to improve the provably fair in order to have more accurate draw times. We appreciate all of your feedback and will definitely take it into account as first and foremost we build for the community.
The current system uses unique hashes from the blocks, and, when creating a raffle, we predict what block should be discovered around the same time when the raffle should be drawn. Upon the discovery of that block the draw is made.
On average, a block is discovered every 10 minutes or so, but it can skew by a lot, a good example is our first Olympics raffle where it was drawn 9 hours earlier due to multiple blocks being discovered hours apart from each other.
As always, any feedback and suggestions are highly welcome either here or for example by e-mail to our support.

We will look into all options. At the end of the day, we want you guys to trust our lottery and that it is fair, and it is random.
I strongly believe that the lottery is very fair, because I ever get it. probably because a lot of people who never get it, so they were a little suspicious. but indeed, must prove this justice to make people believe and not much to complain about this Raffle.

Anyone received a lottery ticket for the 9th-12th today? I placed a bet on Olympics game yesterday, but I do not received ticket for it? Any delays or is it because I receive other ticket for the re-draw lottery so I do not get the ticket for the 9th-12th lottery?

Assuming your account is also called panjul07, In order to get a ticket you need to bet on Olympic games. It appears your bet was on an ITF event Can you confirm that to be the case?

I received my ticket for today and till now I have 5 tickets in my account. Hopefully one of them will win the next raffle. If I got the first place I'll use it to participate on EPL event. Wish me luck!

I also received my tickets for yesterday betting on Olympics matches and receiving tickets without any issue, maybe you missed to place bet on Olympics matches, that is why you had problem to get your tickets for that lottery.

Ups my bad, I thought I placed other bets beside the ITF event. So yeah, its my fault not to double check all my bets. Thank you

Hi On the 09:08 to 12:08 Olympics Lottery (4 days), I have 6 tickets?! ![Grin](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/grin.gif) The total number of entries is 814 which is also high. Please check to make sure all participants got only 1 ticket a day for a fair lottery. Which time zone is used for determining which day the bet was made? UTC?

It must be a bug on the lottery, afaik a user can only get 4 tickets but you have 6 tickets. I think there are many other users have 6 tickets like you and makes the total entries jump so high. If it is not a bug, so you must be a special player on this site and you get 2 additional tickets ![Smiley](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/smiley.gif) but you are so honest here to inform us about it. Appreciate it..

If you have more than 4 tickets for the next Raffle then it is perfectly fine. It is the compensation from sportsbet to people who miss previous lottery. Sporsbet's lottery winners are determined by hash of mined blocks and that certain block was mined earlier than expected causing some people to miss previous raffle.

I also have 6 tickets now and sportsbet.io already explain about that. So, we can get maximum ticket for 2nd raffle is 6 tickets ? 2 from the previous raffle and 4 for 2nd raffle ?

I think you can check under "my tickets" tab to see on which lottery your tickets are counted. There is also notifications when you received the tickets, didn't you notice it?
