The EtherArts #2 card is a lucky card. 3 times out of 4 draws have been selected. 

Yeah, It could be feel somewhat unfair and strange, but rule is rule. This kind of unexpectancy causes lucks for someone. This is what we want.

1st prize was less than 2nd prize. 

Look new added cards. There are old and new Vincent 

These are the new cards we have registered at stage#4. One special card and two regular cards. You can get new special gold card if you own one BLUE card and one GRAY card.

Tip for beginners: Analyze STATISTICS page on our website before you buy card. To maximize profits, you should consider purchasing the least-sold card.

It's a completely unexpected situation, but it seems to be more exciting because it's game rules and unpredictable. This stage shows that you can consider a strategy of dividing a card into multiple wallets to avoid first place.

We have successfully finished our 3rd winner draw event yesterday! The result was somewhat weird but funny! What happened to the 1st winners? And who are the luckest guy in this draw? Please have a look at this result we made yesterady!

Remember, our second draw will take place today at GMT+15.(An hour left) The prize-pool currently stands at 11.159 Eth - that’s $1800 USD!
If you want to have a chance of winning, head to the website and click on ‘Market’, where all the cards so far issued will be displayed, along with their purchase value in ETH.

Please remember, if you are a winner, to claim your winnings on the ‘MY COLLECTION’ page of the website.
Help spread the word among family, friends and the wider Crypto-community. The more participants, the greater the prize-pools.

So the cards can be bought from the website market and have different values according to their rarity, meaning that only a few people be in possession of the rarest/most expensive cards, unless those in possession wish to sell/exchange them on the market with other card holders/enthusiasts
The team do not hold or own any cards, but purely oversee their generation and payouts to winners. A breakdown of prize payments and their distribution is extremely straightforward and can readily be found on the Whitepaper and website.
Please have a look around the website 

You don't provide any token sale right?
So everything I need is to buy these cards and hold them?

In 2 days, our second winner draw event will be made. more than 11 ethers has been raised so far, and we have 11 kinds of ether-arts cards. Game difficulty will increase as more cards are registered after each stage. We are changing our game concept from easy small game to difficult huge game, slowly and steady.

Yes, we give 10% rolling royalties to all new artists who works are featured. It’s important to us to support up-and-coming artists, so that they have the platform to continue their creativity and rise to prominence.

Interesting! You've got permissions from the artists, and community members select the picture. Then what will the artist get from it? Do you pay copyright fee to artists?  or just advertise their works on public?

Let me to introduce one of our contemporary artists, whose artwork will be exhibited on our cards.
Her name is Anastasiya Kimachenko and she is currently residing in US. Her portraits artworks are amazing!

Please visit this link below and enjoy her works of art:-
https://www.artmajeur.com/anastasiya-kimachenko

You can purchase her art from the site itself, where you also have the opportunity of contacting Anastasiya directly.

We asked her permission to reproduce her paintings on our ether-arts cards, to which she kindly gave her assent.
Now it's your turn. Please choose your favourite from these two paintings. We will honour the majority decision that is taken and use the most voted for piece of the two:-
Please come to our official telegram group for voting!!!

Hello Adrianto1995! Main function of Ether-arts card is lottery ticket that never expired! We already have launched our project on mainnet @ April 15th.
Our first lottery draw has successfully finished on April 25th, and we are about to draw second winner cards on May 5th.

Just like the several people said, seems this project almost have the same concept as cryptokitties
the main difference is we collect the digital art card, not kitties 
*CMIIW

It's quite rare to find a project using ERC721 token type, and almost every project using ERC721 always has great attention to the public...
Anyway, when is mainnet launch?

https://ambcrypto.com/worlds-first-collectible-art-lottery-card-ether-arts-will-give-direct-ethereum-reward-to-its-owners/ Please see this article on AMBcrypto. It's easy to read and have described our key concepts well.

Our 2nd regular lottery will be on May 5th, GMT+15.
56 cards are sold and 10.862 ethers are raised so far. Be the lucky winner!!

3 new cards have joined at this stage. now we have 11 kinds of cards! 

3 winners haven't claimed their winning prize (0.79 ether/winners) yet. please check your accounts, if you are the owner of ether-arts card NO2."THE WATERFALL" (OLIVE) or NO4."THE GIRLS ON THE BRIDGE"(RED).

If you bought all the cards, it was a loss even if you were 1st winner in this stage. It is the most effective way to buy 2 cards and become the 1st prize winner. However, the first stage cards will be used in the second stage also. You have to buy are only three or four cards to have all card for each stage.
If the stage is repeated, the difficulty level will increase. If you have 2~4 cards your winning probability will be close to 0. If the pool becomes larger, it will surely be more profitable than the investment. That was my point.

Hi April! Of course. we have used copyright expired masterpieces, contemporary arts that has been contracted and AI arts created by our team. You can check the details on our whitepaper as well. Thanks for your interest!

If you bought all the cards, you will end up paying more than the first prize. There is no economic sense.
In the lottery it is best to buy the cheapest option if you really want to participate.

Hey admin, I think you created superb project. Have you contacted these painters to provide them your conditions?

If you are winner, claim your rewards on our website. but you don't need to hurry up.
Our smart contract will keep your ethers safely until you claim it. Only the winner can claim it!

Congratulations for all 1st stage winners!!!
We got 12 winners. 1st prize winners took their reward already.
https://i.imgur.com/xOtuJxh.jpg
Three people in the 2nd prize have not yet received the prize money. If you have not received the prize eth, please claim it from the MY COLLECTION>MY REWARDS.
Take your rewards and prepare upcoming 2nd stage!!!

Thanks Rangnaht!

Congratulations! Bro!
Don't forget visit again after 10 days! 

Thanks for your interest. We also support our artists who provide their artworks. 10% of total sales amount will be paid to indie artists. After our first lottery draw today, Some artworks of contemporary artists contracted with us will be added on our collection. I would appreciate your continued interest in our project. Thank you!

Kind of interest and unique thing to see a lottery ticket on this project. I wish they could make more opportunities.

Our first lottery draw will be made after about 5 hours. Please join our game if you are interested in. and get the rewarded.
Reward fund has about 18ETH though it is our first draw event.

We've issued total 11 bounty cards today.
You did good job, bounty hunters!
Thank you for your contributions!

And don't forget that you can get more bounty cards if you help us promoting our services. promoting bounties are always openned!
Promote Ether-arts.io to crypto communities on  your country!

Hello brothers. Right, we cannot expect anything at present. but this is obvious. We have raised almost 18 ETH for reward fund at present, and owner of the two cards that are randomly picked will win first round’s lottery. Will there be a winner or not? This is my main concern. 

I do not think all the cards should buy one person. it will not be a smart decision, because it can bring both success and some disappointments. from today's cryptomarket you can expect anything.

I read WP. The simplest way to be winner is buying all cards. It could make big FOMO!!
Because those cards are always valid for every single lottery. If it is possible to collect all cards, anyone can be 1st prize winner for every stage!!
The entire crypto market cap would definitely increase tremendously. Ether-Arts would be one of great investment asset.

Our community is growing steadily and firmly. We appreciate for all your attention!!!
We will keep operating the system to give the best compensation to Ether-Arts pioneers.

Thank you very much for your interest on Ether-arts!
Our first regular lottery will be on April 25th, GMT+15.
30 cards are sold and 13 ethers are raised so far. Be the lucky winner!

Finally Ether-Arts released in Ether main net!! Congratulation guys!!
I'm Classicist arts lover so very excited on this project.

Our first lottery will be on April 25th, GMT+15, and our smart contract will select two winner cards. There are 11 card owners so far, around 7 ether was raised. Be the lucky collectors!

We'll issue more bounty cards for those who contributes promoting our service. Promote ether-arts to crypto-communities world wide and get ether-arts cards for free!

Today is the last day of open beta. Page load speed has become faster!!!
I'm looking forward to Ether-arts launching day

Congratulations! Today, The first prize  winner who won the 21 ethers was born! Though it was on rinkeby testnet, we can see the possibility and power of ether-arts card!

Today's winner selection event has been cancelled. we have found a small bug on scheduled winner selection code.
We are investigating it now and will fix it without contract reset. new winner selection will be taken place as soon as we fix this problem today. Thank you

I sent you DM. Please check it. Thank you for your interest!

Russian Traslation Reserved

Great! I Wish you be 1st winner! Every player who is selected as a 1st winner on beta testing will get real(not physical) ether-arts card that works on mainnet!

Thanks for your support, the problem was resolved. I just bought my first art card!!!

We updated our contracts. All reported bugs have been fixed.
Cards of participants will be recovered exactly same to prior status.

Hi, Sorry for late response. It seems that you are in different network. Our beta testing is run on the rinkeby test network. So before you connect our website, you have to change your metamask's running network to rinkeby.
We have solved several buggy conditions on our contracts, so we'll re-launch all of our contracts today. please wait until additional announcement from our team. Thank you very much for your interest!

Dear Krugst,
It seems to be connected with Ethereum main net. We are currently on Rinkeby net for open beta. The infinite loading is due to mismatch of network. Would you try to change the network to Rinkeby in metamask? And you might need below link for getting some Ethereum in Rinkeby.
https://faucet.rinkeby.io/
If you have any trouble or question, please let me know.

It's a fascinating project!! I'd like to join open beta test. I went to the market to look around, but the page was not loaded over 10 minutes.
Could you help me?

Hi FlyingSea. I'll specify it clearly. The most expensive card (BROWN) is for code bounty participants who finds a serious bug on our contracts.but it's not for every bug finders. We'll investigate the bug's impact and define reward. Frankly speaking, the efforts to find a serious bugs on complex contracts is much more bigger than that of becomming 1st winners on open-beta testing. we'll treat them with honor. It's our fault to confuse you, because we didn't specify that rewards. But there's no first winners other than our team members since our beta testing starts. so I'll specify it right now in detail. Every 1st winner on open-beta testing will get OLIVE(0.4 ETH) card. and the bug bounty participants will get their reward according to their contribution on bug findings. it is also described on the github code bounty page. Please refer to the link.(https://github.com/ether-arts/ether-arts)
Thank you!

I have question about open beta bounty. There will be stage winner every day and the 6 bounty cards(from olive to brown) are eligible for the stage winners.
My question is who is eligible for brown card among the stage winners? Number of stage wins? Or Amount of total prized Eth?
 

We have found several small but not serious bugs on open beta phase. Thank you all for reporting them. We internally discussed and have decided that we expand our open-beta period a little bit more - just for one week. This is because we have to verify our contracts very seriously. As you know, some part of contracts are not modifiable once it has published to public blockchain. Days ago, we found that codes on this area (unmodifiable area) has some problem. It is a very small bug that counts total card holders. But this kinds of small bugs can cause super damage for our project. We'll check it more. But don't worry. Most of our contract codes are designed to be update available even after the mainnet launching except for some important data and the private data owned by players. Actually since open-beta starts, we have modified several code blocks that has problematic algorithms without any data losses. This kind of right for administrator is totally necessary to keep your assets safe. We do not want our service be disabled due to some small but serious bugs. To cover this kind of situation, we have developed many internal tools to deal with them. So, please understand today's notice concerning open beta expansion. As our service relase date is postponed one week, every bounty card's issue date will be also postponed one week too. We're very sorry for delay. But we think this is a positive delay to protect and strengthen our cards as a assets. Thank you for your understanding. We're looking forward to see you soon. 

Once you triggers the ROLL game, its result will be came out about 1~2 minutes later. it depends on the status of ethereum network.
When ROLL is triggered, our smart contract gets a fresh random number seed from the Wolfram Alpha, via Oraclize library.
from this number, we just take last two-digit : range from  [0,99]
if this random number is smaller than 50, user wins. otherwise, user loses. it's very simple and provable.

This is link to the contract code (Decoding roll result) :
https://github.com/ether-arts/ether-arts/blob/e2b9f27137768b2722ec247c9968f9463f17e4bf/contracts/EAO_roll.sol#L99
if you are familar with code, checking this part will be helpful.

Thanks for your interest. Yeah, you're right. We are having very hard time because we are just newbie on bitcointalk. It would be great  if you PM us with any suggestion on our project. In fact, we do not have crypto community related human resources at all now.
At first, our open-beta period was just a week. but I think verifying and hard testing need more long time. Seriously, we are now plan to expand our open-beta period. As for our smart contract codes, I'll make it well documented again within couple of days. Please hack our contract codes, and get big rewards from us!  Thank you very much!

ERC-721 is my fav
ive always thought it was gonna be ETHs big mover
you should consider partnering with some trusted people in the scene/on this forum
if you are long about the lotteries there needs to be liability and transparancy
a newbie anon random such as just yourself wont cut it to take my $ long term

Good Luck on your project, if i get bored i will hack @ your contract as per the bounty

Thanks for the reply. BTW, I've rolled a card. I couldn't get the result if I won or not. How can I get the result of the roll?

If there's anyone who want to experience our beta testing, please send us your metamask account address.
I'll send two sample ether-arts cards for 10 applicants. Beware that this is just sample card working just within rinkeby testnet.
This is for testing card generation event for bounty participants. Please note that they are not available on the mainnet.
To check received test cards, you have to configure wallet's (metamask) network to "Rinkeby". Please PM me if you want to experience our cards. Card type to sent will be random. Thank you.

Hi FlyingSea, please follow these instructions. Rinkeby network is another seperated network, so you cannot use real ethers. This network is just for testing new dapps, so you can claim free test ethers from here : faucet.rinkeby.io. Before visit our website, please make sure you have switched to your metamask network to rinkeby. Thank you for participating in our beta test.

Quite impressive. I wanna be beta tester. How could I connect to Rinkeby testnet? Could you explain more details about it?

Project reminds me of Kitty, I have registered and will test it. First impression is good

Oh, I'm sorry to confuse you. What I mean by "real" is.... not the ether-arts card that runs on the test net but the ether-arts card that runs on the mainnet.
In fact, there's no physical thing in our ether-arts services. We are now on rinkeby testnet.. 

I'm more curious in this, as I am a fan of physical collections. Can you give a little more details on this real ether-arts card?

Great! Don't forget that you can obtain real ether-arts card which works on mainnet, if you selected as a first prize winner on testnet. I hope you'll get real ether-arts card we offer! 

First of all, thanks for your interest. Unlike from the other collectibles like kitties, this art card has built-in lottery function. Player can obtain direct ethereum reward from this. Periodically ,every 10 days, winner cards are selected through fair and safe method. Anyone who own these winner cards will get rewards, from the reward pool which are the accumulation of 50% of total card sales amount. Of course the card itself can be traded among users at the seller defined price. Please refer to the winner selection part on our whitepaper. this lottery ticket is not one-time-used stuff. we designed it very carefully.

Kitty like projects are becoming more and more, I just saw one like the ZED which they are now selling horses for racing. Tokenized art so this is the future. I do think its something worth investing, I just don't know how unique the horses. Same thing with this cards actually but I would start questioning how soon can we selling cards for profit if we invest today?

Looking good, Investing in art is really a long term investment. But buying a digital tokenize art? Why not,

I will check out your beta testing. Who long it will last?

ETHER-ARTS.IO is now on Rinkeby testnetwork.

If you want to participate in the Open beta test of ether-arts, please follow the steps below.
1. Install the Metamask wallet on your Chrome or Firefox browser and set up your account.
2. Set the network to Rinkeby.
3. Claim test ethers at https://faucet.rinkeby.io/
4. Go to https://ether-arts.io/ and start test

Thank you!
