15life sc Raffle Idea Subject description: Let me know your opinions! |
|
This is an idea of mine I've had for a while, not sure if anyone else has thought about it, and I have told a few people about this idea of mine.
If this would be possible to do, I would like to try and run and organize the events, collect and distribute the prizes and update all the entries for this.
I've decided to try to start a raffle with 15life scs. This should help out those who may be just starting and also those veteran LLD's who wish to enter. Input and approval would be appreciated.
-Possibly Bi-weekly if things go well
-Entry fee of one 15life sc
-You may only enter one 15life sc per raffle
-Up to 40 participants per raffle
-The number in the raffle you get depends on what number you have placed your entry, example would be first person will be #1 for drawing
-Winner gets all of the 15life scs that were placed into the raffle pot
-Winner will be chosen by a random number generator either by myself or I may ask an Admin for help when choosing a winner with some sort of random number generator
Let me know If this would be a good idea, I would like to try and get this running first in US East Ladder. Also, is this even allowed? I would hope so because I believe this is a great idea to help those llds new and old.
If I have missed anything or you have anything to suggest please post.

I think this is a great idea, I would like to see it on NL as well.
Could also do it with 15 and 9 maxers as well.

Maxers could work as well, there could be separate raffles for lifers and maxers.
I would like to only keep it on Ladder for now just to see how things go, if participation is good and things go well, I may expand it to nl and maybe even west and europe, I have already made an account on those realms for this idea a month ago.

This is a fantastic idea Curt..And I don't see why it couldn't be allowed..and if it isn't, we could just do it between ourselves.
I'll put down a few 15 lifers for sure whenever you feel like starting this..

Thanks for the encouragement, but I still would like to see more opinions, there's gotta be a way to improve on this before following through on it, isn't there? Or have I covered everything well enough and it is understandable?

Well I don't see what we could add to this..it's pretty straightforward.
We give you 15 life sc, you give us a number, you randomize a number, the guy gets all 15 life scs..rinse and repeat..

Its very simple, if you wanted to make it harder to win you could make it two numbers you have to match.
Say like you pick the numbers: 7 and 14, when they enter the raffle people pick 3 numbers and they have to match 2 of the 3 to win.
Numbers 1-30, or something.

But he would probably end up with a thousand 15life scs on his account since we probably wont be that many in the raffles and the possibilities that people get 2 of 3 numbers is kinda low ...
I'd rather see the whole pot go every week...

I agree, it is much simpler and is just more attractive to somebody thinking "oh wow I could win up to 40x 15life scs each week by simply entering with just one!"

I like this idea, pm me when you start this. I have a few 15lifers just sitting around gathering dust.

For a random number generator, you can always use the TI-8x graphing calculators. Just go to Math -> scroll to the far right -> Select RndInt(x,x) -> hit enter -> enter 1, 40) and hit enter to generate a number. (I'm pretty sure thats it, but not positive.)
