    I am by no means calling you a scammer. However, if you do not build in "fail-safes", others will mimic you and begin to scam others. Just trying to save you a few headaches.

    Crimson and cookiez: you are both forgetting the imporatnt fact about lootery. Imagine detzl make that free of charge. Meeting with unlimited number of tickets i could just come and tell him all the combinations, it wouldjust take me some time to type all of these numbers. It is the fee what makes lootery a game. Right gamble and without fee its very senseless.

    Detlz: however i like your concept, i think however this has low chances to be succestull and all your effort and good will is probably wasted here. I trust you mean all of that in the best way, but even if you start this the number of participants will be low and the game wont be succesful. Thats what i think about this.

    I appreciate you are trying to make something to entertain others in this boring mean time, let me suggest then you to make some creative contest with prizes, pvp tournament or something what has bigger chancs to turn in succesful event. And let me also advise, that first what you should care about is to build the a stable rules and make your plan.

    Last i would like to ask others not to be that suspicious immediately. Yes there is alot of scam and evilness around but that shouldnt but we shouldnt let those scammers destroy whole our trust in goodness

    Anyway detlz, you have my best wishes.
    Good luck in whatever you gotta try.

    You need to precise something.

    Is the order important? It would drastically change statistics. It's also important to know if the number 1 must be another number than the n°2, n°3, and if the n°4 can be the same as n°1 or n°2 or n°3.
    In the following stuff, n°1 must be different from n°2, and from n°3, and reciprokly, but 4 can be the same as n°1, n°2 and n°3.

    __________

    If there is no order, it will be

    [(46 x 45 x 44) / (3!)] x [26/1]= 394.680 combinaisons possible.
    So, you have A chance out of 394.680 to win something good, and 1/26 to win a poo item.

    _______

    If there is an order, it's even worst.

    46x45x44x26 = 2.368.080 ...
    So, you have one chance out of 2.368.080 to win a good stuff, and still 1/26 for a poo item.

    ____

    You'd be sure making profit doing (with NO order)
    3 numbers to choose, they go 1 to 9, and another 4th one going 1 to 9.
    1/756 chance to gain something good, and 1/9 chance to get a poo item.

    ____

    May the odds be ever in your favor, guys.

    It depends...Do you wanna make profit doing this, or do you wanna give items because you're a nice guy?


    1) If you wanna make profit, ripping off everyone : make the game you called firstly


    2) If you wanna make profit, without being too cheap:
    - Choose 3 different numbers for the 3 first numbers, and a random one as the fourth. the 4 ones are between 1 and 9
    - The order of choice doesn't change anything, it means that if the good numbers r 7 4 9, 4 ; if the guy put 9 7 4 ; 4 he wins.
    - Chances : 1/756 chance to gain something good, and 1/9 chance to get a poo item.

    3) If you wanna be a good guy, giving cool items and poo items out pretty much often :
    - Choose 3 different numbers, for the 3 first numbers, and a random one as the fourth. The 3 first ones are between 1 and 6, and the 4th one is between 1 and 10.
    - The order of choice doesn't change anything, it means that if the good numbers r 7 4 9, 4 ; if the guy put 9 7 4 ; 4 he wins.
    - Chances : 1/315 chance to gain something good, and 1/10 chance to get a poo item.

    4) If you wanna give out items :
    - Choose 3 different numbers, for the 3 first numbers, and a random one as the fourth. The 3 first ones are between 1 and 4, and the 4th one is between 1 and 9.
    - The order of choice doesn't change anything, it means that if the good numbers r 7 4 9, 4 ; if the guy put 9 7 4 ; 4 he wins.
    - Chances : 1/36 chance to gain something good, and 1/9 chance to get a poo item.


    About the price of ticket, 1k sounds ok.. But be sure to test all what I said to be sure not to be ruined too fast. Statistics are odd, and not obvious things

    Sorry, I couldn't make it easier..

    Maybe ask for 0 gold per ticket and lower the prize? People like free money, not money for money or nothing.

    Man Detlz ppl just keep giving u grief lol

    I understand what u are doing and I also understand the need for checks and balances. I think charging a minimal fee to enter a contest is fine to eliminate abuse.

    Maybe you should also consider selecting a trusted fellow forumer with the winning number, before the contest begins, as proof you didn't change the number as well.

    This should minimize the drama and questions of integrity.
