Yeah, as Drax says, this is open to anyone playing in EVE, not just those coming to the FF. That includes current targets, old targets, clients, past clients, potential clients, ebil pirates, carebears, not-so-carebears, PvE'ers, PvP'ers, PK'ers, IBTL'ers, madmen, miners, maimers, mercenaries, moon-miners, mission runners, marketeers, privateers, auctioneers, POS owners, POS killers, POS designers, lunatics, psychos, killers, loosers, griefers, people we've killed, people we've yet to kill . . . the list encompasses everyone except those of us in the MC. But the actual live draw will be at the FF. So feel free to enter.  |

So... lets see, for the lottery to take place 2bil in tickets must be purchased.
Using Naga prices for the 2nd to 7th prices that would meen you get a minimum of 1.520.000.000 isk for the raven (As naga does not have the cerberus I put it at 100mil, that is probably hig).
This just proves the standard for gambling: The house always wins.
Just out of curiosity, how many tickets have been sold? |

Were I to put all the 2nd - 7th prizes on the market in Yulai or Jita right now, in less than six hours I would have made right around 650 million ISK. I'm told that the CNR goes for 2 - 2.4 billion in the ship trade channel and on escrow. Quote: This just proves the standard for gambling: The house always wins.
Any way you look at it, I'm willing to put nearly over 3 billion isk of hardware on the block for 2 billion isk. If we don't sell more than 40-50 tickets, explain how I "win"? I'll say it again - the MC is doing this because we thought it would be fun. There is no scam, no huge profit to be made here and no secret plan at work.

As of now, twenty-six. |

I'd just like to say:
If I win, I'm going to take that Caldari piece of junk, put it in a belt in yulai and mine.
With basic miners.

Unfortunately the CNR goes for less than 1.5b atm. Still good to see such events. I really think hard about considering to buy a ticket  |

Hi,
i'm thinking of buying a ticket or three. Just one little question: If the drawing doesnt take place because of less than 40 sold tickets, will the money be refunded?
Greetings, Marcsen |

Edited by: Cowboy on 17/10/2005 01:22:11 Buy a ticket and help us feed little hungry Caldari children.
Good luck to those who have purchased tixs.
@ Marcsen, Sel would have to confrim this but I believe the answer is yes. Even if we dont hit our goal we will still be doing the drawing.
This is not about us making tons of isk (although that does not hurt) it's about doing something fun for the community and folks attending FF (which you don't have to attend to win).

While I don't fly inferior Caldari ships myself I could use the ship as a demonstrator. Consider my isk sent Seleene. (And great idea you're the best!!!). Archie  |

I'll take one Seleene. I'll do the ISK thing later today. It's a grand gesture and I'll give the hairy eyeball to anyone who disagrees  |

Edited by: Falzone on 18/10/2005 09:53:33 Can you put a limit in place so only 40 tickets will be sold? I don't like the odds above 40 really.
Oh and hey drax. |
