The lottery has ended! As stated, I will now post who bought tickets, and how many, for reasons of transparency. I will give each ticket a number, and write who got each ticket:

Shadowood: 1
LoveTiger: 2 and 3
Grapefruit: 4
LoveTiger: 5. 6. 7. 8 and 9
Malachi Constant: 10
BMW: 11
Kart: 12

So, a total of 12 tickets were sold. That means the prize is 12x9 = 108 credits! And who will win this? The draw begins...

And the winning ticket is.... NUMBER 1! Congratulations to Shadowood! 108 credits will be sent to you. A big thank you to everyone who bought tickets. Since this was such a huge success (I made 12 credits), I am going to repeat this later. Maybe once a month? So to those of you who didn't win: Don't despair. You'll get a new chance in next months lottery.

Nice. Thanks Haron.

Suggestion - what if you created a 2 stage voting poll. First vote is Odd/Even numbers. Next is just 1-??

The players and spectators have no clue who donated and what order so this seems fair.

The first vote of odd and even will shorten you field by half of course. And then the next vote just goes in order of who's left. Again the players and spectators will have no clue who they are voting for. Who ever has the most votes wins the prize??? Make sense??

Again just a suggestion. I enjoyed playing the game.
I don't fear death. I look forward to it with great anticipation. For then I will met God face to face and let him know that I stole his Man of War!!!

Yeah, not very lucky there, LoveTiger. Perhaps fortune will smile to him in the next lottery!

YES! Haron's lottery is back!

Due to the success of the previous lottery, I will do another one. The rules are the same: Each ticket costs 10 credits. Send them to me in game, along with a message. A random ticket will be chosen as the winning ticket, and the owner of that ticket wins the Grand Prize, which is 90% of the total credits spent buying tickets.

The only tiny change from the last game, is that buyers this time will get a reply containing the numbers of the tickets they buy. These will start at number 1 for the first ticket sold, number 2 for the next ticket sold and so on, so that when you buy a ticket, you will actually know how many tickets were sold in total before you bought your tickets. You will, of course, have no idea about how many tickets will be sold AFTER you buy your tickets.

Last time, Shadowood won a prize of 108 credits. Who will win this time? Buy your tickets today, and it might be YOU! :-)

The lottery ends on October 31st, and the winner will be announced before November 3rd, probably on November 1st.
