50/50 Bitcoin Raffle - tickets are 0.01 BTC - (50% to winner / 50% to charity)

I bought two tickets a week ago and have been refreshing the page EVERY DAY waiting for more tickets to be purchased.  Glad to see that someone finally kicked in the other 6 bitcoins.

PS, if you put some google adsense or something on your page that paid per impression, I would have generated some income for you.

Hey guys,

The first raffle was a big success.  A huge thanks to everyone who bought a ticket!

I decided to try something a little different this time.  A new raffle is now open.  This one is a 50/50 raffle with 50% of the prize going directly to the winner and 50% going to a charity of the winner's choice.  Until I can set up a system to allow easy verification of payment, the winner will be asked to choose from a charity or non-profit that already accepts Bitcoin like the ones listed here: http://bitcoinsforcharity.org/charities

The total prize will be at least 20 BTC (10 BTC for the winner and 10 BTC for charity).  The ticket price has been lowered to just 0.01 for this raffle, so it will end after 2000 tickets have been sold.

Good luck!

Lots more tickets left in the 50/50 charity raffle!

A special thanks goes out to Spend Bitcoins for agreeing to help out by providing unique Bitcoin addresses for donations to charities that do not currently accept Bitcoin.  (Thanks Jeremy!)   Winners, and everyone else, will be able to verify their donation (50% of the prize pool) was sent to the correct address.  So, if you don't see your favorite charity listed at BitcoinsForCharity.org, you will still be able to donate to them! You just need to tell me the name of the charity.

Lots more tickets left in the current drawing!

There are 1446 tickets left in the 50/50 raffle (0.01 BTC per ticket).  Winner walks away with at least 10 BTC and another 10 BTC goes to the winner's favorite charity.

For everyone that thought .10 was too expensive and for those that think .01 is taking too long, maybe the next raffle should be .05

Yeah, it's a little depressing.  I got a shitload of emails during the first raffle saying 0.10 was way too expensive.  Maybe I'll give away free tickets next time.  \_(o.O)_/

Whoever is sending fractional payments (0.001, 0.005) to the current raffle address.... ummmm, thanks for donating to the prize pool.  I guess.
