HeadlessCowboy's Power Ball
#1
Power ball tickets cost $250 per entry.  Each ticket is valid tell one person wins the pot.
To make your Power ball purchase completed, you must message me your numbers via mail on the forums.
Your first five numbers have to be numbered from the range of 1 to 12 and after your first five numbers,
your last number, in other words, the power ball number, has to be a number between 1 and 48.
This gives you an odd of 1 and 11,943,936 chance of winning the power ball with all six numbers.

First number = (1 - 12)
Second number = (1 - 12)
Third number = (1 - 12)
Fourth number = (1 - 12)
Fifth number = (1 - 12)
Power ball number = (1 - 48)

There will be a drawing bi-weekly, one on Mondays and one Thursdays, and if no one has won within 5 weeks after the first draw,
the cost of power ball tickets will cost $50 and the people that bought them before the change get to pick 4 more numbers per $250 ticket for a total of 5; however,
if this happens, the pot gets lowered to 97.5% of the total pot.

And if there is still no winners within 7 weeks after the first draw,
the cost of power ball tickets will cost $10 and the people that bought them before the change get to pick their respective ratio (either from $250 (25 each total) ticket or $50 (5 each total) ticket); however, if this happens, the pot gets lowered to 95% of the total pot.

And finally, if there is still no winners within 10 weeks after the first draw,
the cost of power ball tickets will cost $2 and the people that bought them before the change get to pick their respective ratio (either from $250 (125 each total) ticket, $50 (25 each total) ticket, or $10 (5 each total)); however, if this happens, the pot gets lowered to 90% of the total pot.

Remeber, "you have to submit your Powerball numbers to have a "chance" to win. Simply buying a ticket doesn't mean anything until you submit your guesses" said by a very respectable player Dogtag.


Also, if there are multiple winners, the pot gets split evenly as can be and the amounts get rounded down to the nearest cent.

The lotto will open sometime this weekend after I make a remodel of my courtyard which is where you will be able to buy the lotto tickets.
The plot is near A block (Courtyard plot 6).

This is only valid if there hasn't been a reset recently to the server; however,
the money will be given back to the people that bought the tickets before the reset if it is known to happen in enough time to refund all so they can spend it on whatever before the reset.

If by any chance I miss a drawing, the drawing will happen as soon as possible and goes back to the regular schedule.

The numbers that generated are going to be the number generator from Google on their web page.

If you do not claim your prize within one week, you forfeit your prize and the drawing will continue as if no one has won.

If the drawings go 10 weeks in, it would only cost 23,887,872 to automatically win the pot.

Also, /votetop gets one free ticket every month they are votetop; however, the pot stays the same as it was before they receive the tickets.

All current donors get a free ticket once 7 weeks have happened from the first draw; however, the pot stays the same as it was before they receive the tickets.

For every rule violation that a member makes a report on, they get a ticket; however, the pot stays the same as it was before they receive the tickets.

For every bug report that you report and gets fixed, you get a ticket; however, the pot stays the same as it was before they receive the tickets.

If by any chance I cannot pay back the cost of the ticket if you get the Powerball number, I'll pay it back with a 5% interest per week in tell I pay back the total amount including the interest.

If by any chance I cannot pay the entire pot that you have won, I will pay the rest with a 5% interest per week in tell I pay back the total amount including the interest.

These terms are subject to change and it is up to you to keep up to date with them.

Littlelea can auto win after 10 weeks if Littlelea buys all the tickets required.
Even if you don't buy a ticket, you can still get one but it doesn't affect the pot value if you read the fine print.
Someone is bound to win.

it seems more like a waste of time,money and effort to play this considering it gives me a task as the consumer to win. id rather just let the owner deal with the buylog

This is based on the real-life power ball.  I get that you are not the type to play this kind of game even if you have the chance to win.

I'd doubt many people at all would invest into this, id much rather play dragons instead as he is the one who organizes everything. A consumer who paid for a pre made ticket shouldnt have to do more work to see if they won or not. It's just tedious as hell anyway. Good idea im unsure if it will go somewhere on the server but im willing to try it.
