Would people be interested in a .01 Lottery Game? 

I would be entering myself as well, but to make it provably fair, we can use join.me and random.org to create a random number.  Your entry would be your post number. 


Would there be interest in this at all?

Make member select their lucky number it may become interesting then. And you should be not a part of that as you are already a full member. 0.01 BTC is still big amount and may be no one will invest. Try it to be reduced to 1$ and may be you will get success.

Edit: Don't mind this, Don't steal or use other members ideas. This idea is same like me i introduced few days ago But no one was interested  Grin

I would think about members selecting their number, but then Random.org wouldn't be able to be used. 

True .01 is slighly higher then normal but heck, you get 10 people involved its .1!

Would be a fun way to gamble IMO

You can still use random.org Just google this "random number generator" and select the "integer" result. there choose how many integers you want. If 1 winner than "1" in the first box if 3 winners choose "3" in the first box. And let your members select any number between 1 and 10. and the number generated by random.org will be the winner.

Don't forget to send 1% of the total amount for helping you  Grin

Right, but that isn't really letting members select their number...I mean what if someones favorite number is 33.


I also wouldn't be taking any money so you can have 1% of nothing if people do this:)

Then if you let choose member there number and lets say u sell 10 tickets and all the members choose between 1-100 what will be the chance that they will get their lucky number?

You would be better of that they chose between 1-10 and then their will be a 1/10 chance that they win the lottery.

That was my initial plan and you said I should let members select their own number...
