Introducing the Mandalay Bay Powerball Lottery!

Congrats to Bob and Snooga for matching 3 numbers and winning 500pp each!

There will be another drawing soon with a bigger jackpot. With the holiday weekend coming up, I'm not sure if I want to do it then or wait until next Tuesday. I'll keep you all updated. Thanks everyone who played!

Rules:


Tickets cost 2pp and are unlimited
When submitting numbers, the 4th number listed will always be your powerball number.
First 3 numbers must be between 1 and 59, no duplicates. 4th number must be between 1 and 39.
At time of drawing, Mandalaybay will /random 1 59 three times in a row, then /random 1 39 for the powerball number. Witnesses will be on hand to ensure credibility.
You do not need to match the first 3 numbers in order, but your 4th number must match the powerball number.
You must match all 3 numbers and the powerball number to win the jackpot.
There will be additonal prizes for matching 2 and 3 numbers that will be determined after initial interest has been gauged.
The jackpot will increase after each drawing if there are no winners. Increase will be determined by Mandalaybay and will be based on level of participation.
Numbers may not be changed after purchase.

Very cool idea! I may have to just buy a ticket. I think it would be great for someone to win it who only purchased one ticket, HEHEHEHEHE.

I played this guys casino and his raffle earlier in the week. I payed 20p and got a raffle and won 500p! then he offered to gamble it up on even an odds for the 500, won again and left with 1k for 20p.

Im not this lucky irl.

Remember 1 key thing...the amount of tickets someone else buys reduces your odds of winning by 0. You have the same odds no matter what, so don't be afraid to buy a ticket simply because someone else bought 500.

Subtle lol..

Quick clarification: Any set of winning numbers has 6 possible winning combinations. Would multiple winners win multiple prizes or split the same prize?

Split. I don't have the juice to cover two winners.

I don't play the lottery irl due to the stupidly long odds. I sure as hell am not doing it on an EQ server :p
