I can't prove a thing Kapacs. How would you ever prove any of those?
Every single winner ever is listed on the Lottery pages - Send them a mail, check their employment history etc... I dunno... Whatever rocks your boat.
You either believe it's legit or not. If not - then dont buy tickets.
My reputation is the only 'proof' I got of this beeing legit - Simple as that really.
A reputation without which The BIG Deal would never have been possible. People have trusted me with 6.5B ISK (and raising) - That in itself speaks volumes of the trust some people put in me. BIG Lottery

Him and his corp earn a reputation of being trust worthy and cool. They also raise their public profile.
This leads to a much easier recruitment drive. Or lower prices from friendly corps etc... Never underestimate the value of good will.
Sure, it makes BIG a BIGGER target of course. Pirates love to enter high profile wars, simply because the ego loves a good stroking. ___________________________________________ Join in the NEW Sci-Fi Quiz |

well not to mention they could run the lottery as a bank runs investments, and use the money to earn their corp more money before the drawing occurs, not to mention im sure there is a small cut so there is some payment for organizing the lottery (10% from what i read i believe)
I just hope 1 of my measly 78 tickets i just bought can win it for me =)

Originally by: Infinitas Edited by: Infinitas on 30/09/2004 02:18:25 What do they get out of it?
10% of all proceeds.
"5) BIG will only pay out as much in prize money as have been deposited into the lottery via ticket sales (minus the 10%)"
Plus they keep any money you accidently send, and class it as a 'donation'.
Yeah nobody has to play if they dont want to, but dont make out your a 'good guy' doing it out of the kindness of your heart, your making millions out of it.
as a matter of fact BIG doesnt keep even those 10%, i think its mainly cuz it really shows they do it for community and TS aint cheap enough to seel his ass for 10% :P
There are 2 rules in a successful life: 1. Don't tell people everything you know |

Indeed
Seems somebody went on a trolling spree on the BIG lottery threads - no matter how ancient they were.
characters "Prattler" and "Xanadex" (alts) logged sofar. Probably same person.

I think a lot of the most relevant information is missing here!
How does the lottery work ie. whats the chance of winning?????
Do you draw a winner from those who purchased a ticket? or do you have a total amount of tickets, say 10 mill and then say 8 mill are sold, i this case there is a nice chance no winner will be found and you score all the money. You could set the total amount of tickets to 10000000000000 and be sure to win yourself. You could even set a different amount of tickets each time.
Please explain
