Feedback:
-there is no way that people can be sure what address they will be spending from therefore will get tickets and have no idea who's it is
-there is no way to verify how you are picking the winner -they just hope you are randomly picking someone?
-you take 25%???

Thank you. - I changed the frequency from daily to weekly.
- I changed the commission from 25% to 20%. I am considering making it lower based off of the communities feedback.
I appreciate everyone's feedback.  |

Dude, crack kills... you should stop smoking it. After pondering the meaning of your comment for several minutes I have come to the conclusion that the commission will be 5% but ticket prices are increased to 1BTC each. So hopefully this satisfies the thrillseekers. I also give the community my word as a bitcoin user that I will not do you wrong. Thanks for the feedack. |

You still haven't addressed my points. People don't know what address it's coming from. Anyone who sends with MyBitcoin is pretty much throwing their money away! You have to be specific with how you are paid. And picking the winner: "my word as a bitcoin user that I will not do you wrong" for picking the winner? O...k...

That's his profile, would you trust a completely new person with your 1 BTC?

Thanks, I've updated the info to let the people know they have to use the Bitcoin program to pay. Is that specific enough and easily understood? Let me know. As for picking the winner I use a random name selector here at http://primaryschoolict.com/random-name-selector/. Anymore suggestions? Thank you all for your help. |

You can watch it. It would be pretty hard to rig!! How would you alter the outcome? It would be pretty hard. With yours it's: just let some anonymous person tell you what it is. There is no way for others to verify. People are getting at that you could tell people over and over your are really getting a random number but it would be indistinguishable from a "random" number that wasn't random at all but a fraud. |

That can be fixed by posting a bond greater than the expected pot to a trusted member. |

Plus I wouldn't even pay a whole bitcoin for a ticket. I'd pay like .1 at most.

Heh, I run a weekly lottery, im on week 10 and charge only .1 and .01 per ticket. I'm pretty visible in these forums, and I still don't get too much action on my site yet. And I only charge 2%. Good luck to ya.
