Armour Raffle!

<< < (2/3) > >>

GroeneAppel:
To get things started a bit.
I'll buy 8 tickets for 4000 caps.
it's only 500 caps for a ticket people. 1 load of mineral ore turned into gunpowder is already worth 2 tickets.
Only 500 caps and you have a chance to get the fabled Brotherhood armor.

GooseBerry approves this raffle.

Froggeryz:
it doesn't even say how many tickets total there are or how they draw the numbers

Mars Sultan:
By my understanding this would be as easy as a simple random number generator once all the "numbers" (tickets) are collected. 150 tickets max per person; there hasn't been a decision on the total limit yet.

Though certainly I could see how this sort of thing would be hard to believe if all you've known in FOnline is loss, grief, and that crushing reality of loneliness. Can't win 'em all, I say.

I think it works like this:
4 people decide to join the raffle.
person 1 takes 5 tickes
person 2 takes 10 tickets
person 3 takes 20 tickets
person 4 takes 1 ticket.

So total there are 36 tickets

Person 1 has 5 out of 36 chance to win so: 13.8%
Person 2 has 10 out of 36 chance to win so: 27.8.%
Person 3 has 20 out of 36 chance to win so: 55.6%
Person 4 has 1 out of 36 chance to win so: 2,7%

The more tickets you buy the higher the chance that you win.
This is how I think it works.

Face of Rage:
GroeneAppel has it correct. There are no limits on the total amount of tickets, but a limit on  how many a player can purchase.

We've also been considering asking a GM to do it too, we're just rather busy with our own faction related stuff at the current point in time.
