[CLOSED] Brought to you by Cheaper In Bitcoins . com

[Xenland]

I want to start a raffle to promote cheaper in Bitcoins, I don't want any of the cut out of the funds I just want to host it. I'm open to suggestions so let me know your thoughts but my idea is to required 1BTC per ticket sent to and address and the winner takes all(or maybe 1st, 2nd and 3rd place winners what do you guys like?)

2] 1 BTC exactly per ticket (change will be kept as a tip)
3] I'm putting in 1 BTC for the winner
4]I can not play or win besides gaining tips
5] Random.org will be used to generate the winning numbers
6] Your sending Bitcoin address is a lottery ticket
7] I will generate 32 numbers and the address that match the most of them from left to right will win 75%, 2nd place winner will win 20% and the 3rd place winner will get 5%.
8] I will generate the numbers via a screen cast recording and post it publicly for display to prevent cheating.
9] Raffle ends Oct 31th

Your posts are confusing. Is it a raffle or is it a lottery?

[Xenland]

A lottery is usually a cash prize. A raffle is usually a non-cash prize donated for the sole purpose of being "raffled off."

You haven't mentioned anywhere what the prize is.

[Xenland]

Well I guess I kind of assumed that it was obvious the prize is how ever many tickets are purchased.

If I can't use the money and this is a raffle the the prize must be the money pot. But your right I should have probably mentioned that.
