Coin World Lotteries - First Big Sunday - The Raw Facts

[coinerd]

OK.

I ain't too proud, but I'm honest.  Here's where we are.

I set up everything to run automatically today and watched the chips fall.

We had ten drawings between 12 and 12:10 PST.

ALF - No problems, congratulations to the winners.

BOT - The drawing process went ok, the sendmany failed.  This is the second time for BOT I hope to find a clerical error.

CGB - no participation

DGC - No problems, congratulations to the winners.

EMD - No problems, congratulations to the winners.

FLO - No problems, congratulations to the winners.

FTC - no participation

MEC - No problems, congratulations to the winners.

TDC - No problems, congratulations to the winners.

Payments for FLO and BOT will be sent manually within the next hour or less.

EDIT the FLO jackpot was larger than I had thought, and payments were indeed sent "automagically".


==========================================

What's left?  IFC.

You guys broke the server.  This lottery script actually spins out a list of tickets, and draws from them in memory. With a jackpot of over 3 million IFC, the web server ran out of memory and was unable to complete a drawing.

All funds are safe, I have the reservations and everything in hand, and will be looking at an alternate way of performing this drawing. If necessary we will perform the actual drawing from a different VPS and post the audit results manually.

If we can't do this within 24 hours I will allow the reservations holders to request (using signed messages) a return of their deposit.

The drawing was 2m tickets last night, I thought we might make it. At 3m there was no way

For those of you who weren't aware of these lotteries, you can find our site at http://lotto.coinworld.us/

You can follow the feedback thread I was running this week here:
https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=241609.0

And please feel free to share your thoughts, comments, or derision in this thread as well.

We'll get this sorted and be stronger next week. If I can't find an explanation (mistake) for why the sendmany transactions failed I will re-write to include multiple single payments instead.

All drawings are open and accepting reservations at this time, except Infinite Coin.  Ticket price remains at one coin per ticket, and you can purchase as many as you like. Infinite Coin will be open again soon.

Nice going with your lotteries. I'm sure you'll sort out the glitches.

Maybe you should make IFC tickets cost like 1000 IFC.

This is a possibility.

Nobody was seriously harmed, but my apologies

hi coinerd

Cost per Ticket: 100 IFC would be much more attractive,
IFC price rising the last weeks
