Totally unfair: I kept 2 weeks(plus one day that doesn't matter) the ad on my sig, and a guy that had the ad for only 4 days was "eligible" to win the raffle? You must be kidding me...
I can understand where you are coming from. Though I really hope we can not turn this into a shark frenzy money grab but rather a enjoyable way in which we reward supporting members of this forum with a small extra by holding this bi-weekly raffle. Everyone has a different starting date, and for the sake of logistics we're not going to start tracking that. However, people that we notice to remove/re-add their signature, we do disqualify. If you like what we are doing with SatoshiBet, by all means, get the signature, support us, and with some good luck, if not this raffle maybe the next or the one after that, you'll get a few extra BTC. I'm just using your own words: To be eligible to win, our link has to remain in your signature for the full duration. I tought that a full duration was 2 weeks, aka 14 days. Needless to say, but, by allowing someone with only ~1/3 of the duration you of course turn this a "shark frenzy money grab", you're giving the oportunity. Surely there would have to be leniency for at least the first drawing. If not, it would imply that you had to be on the forum that day and added the sig otherwise you wouldn't be eligible for the first drawing. Considering also that half of the entries were submitted during the 2nd week there wouldn't be much lotto, but rather a handout for 3/10 people that were there first. Either way, the lotto takes place every 2 weeks, and there is still good odds for anyone here. I mean, there isn't much room to complain about a free-to-enter lottery, is there?

My post count isn't high enough right now, but will be by the August drawing. Will I still be qualified? Thanks

I wasn't expecting everybody t have 2 weeks with the ad ofc. Like, if I take 60% I still graduate, but 1/3 is too much, and you can't deny.

Thanks for the opportunity, I'll be in for the second draw too, do I need to add my address again or will it carry over from draw 1? I can see DarkHudrA's point, but when you're giving out the prizes, I don't see how anyone can argue. It's free to enter and takes very little effort for 3 decent prizes every 2 weeks. Anyway, it's not the winning but the taking part that counts.

I too get his point, but it's just not worth the effort to start tracking every users starting time for us and weigh that in the odds of winning. I'm open to solutions or ideas if the community jointly feels the way this was handled is unacceptable.
People don't have to apply again to re-participate, everyone will automatically be carried over to the next raffle ever 2 weeks.

I moved my sig after the drawing to a different spot. Is it acceptable?

Winners are in. First of all, thank you all, A LOT, for supporting SatoshiBet. We really appreciate it regardless. To determine the winners I placed all eligible bitcoin addresses in Random.org and shuffled the list (if your address was not in the list, it means you did not meet the requirements stated in OP). The results: http://cl.ly/image/092q0x0j1u011. 1MBqTqcGwup54Pzz4JvQHhshET8GfuVznE => 0.5 BTC https://blockchain.info/tx/3939bf4d4d3222e9e042b8bf434d7f2a430f3ff1c12f9284edb188cc55b0cf3d2. 1DvBQfsPWX6yonsYnh4Za7GxNaFsdFDDo3 => 0.3 BTC https://blockchain.info/tx/f1275a526469ada68d597f7077376d113b78655a9ee71b899961709c350f31733. 1KzMUFVfD15VyW6zgvmrLLUz7UmzMMUvzk => 0.2 BTC https://blockchain.info/tx/8e39c34bf56eb2618a41102044668996ac8620fd794526a926d79f1a44a53abfCongrats to all!

Do not forget you can join our referral program by going to https://satoshibet.com/affiliate.
