With Bitcoin Galore you can play with even just 0.00001 BTC (which is 10 uBTC) for each combo. If you are lucky you win a prize.
Each prize is divided between all the winning combos, but on average:
If you guess 3 numbers you can win an average of 0.0005 BTC (500 uBTC), which is 50 times.
If you guess 4 numbers you can win an average of 0.01 BTC (10 mBTC), about 1000 times.
If you guess 5 numbers you can win an average of 2.5 BTC or around 250000 times.
If you guess 6 numbers you can win 26 BTC and more (the game is pretty new and nobody guessed 6 numbers yet).
You can play more combos to increase the chance to win. Playing 1000 combos is just 0.01 BTC (10 mBTC).

If you don't want to install bitmessage, you can register on http://www.bitmessage.ch/ and use your email. Once registered there, you can write an email to [email protected] (or [email protected] if you want to access through TOR). The only limit is that you can't subscribe to Bitcoin Galore address and receive automatic round reports.
Your game seems interesting, but when will u have your own website? More ppl will join it. 
Having a website means:
- Higher costs therefore smaller prizes
- Exposing the service to security risks (DDOS, hacking, ...)
- Makes it similar to other already existing games
Running through bitmessage brings the costs basically to zero, so all the "bets" go to prizes. Only bitcoin tx-fees get deducted.
do you think that the "text / message" interface is too difficult for too many people?
Bitmessage is an awesome app.

To improve the quality of the service, I'd like to have a feedback from all the players, even from those who would like to play but for some reason or another didn't do it yet.
I am thinking to introduce a small 2% house-hedge and devolve it to charity. I am evaluating which one to choose, if you have any advice it would be welcome and appreciated. I'd prefer if it's something related to crypto currencies, bitmessage, or any technology that could potentially improve lifes.
I think what should be done and what would make it more suceesful is if a install wasn't required, you should make it browser based.
That's what I tried to avoid: being based on bitmessage it doesn't need direct internet access. No DDOS attacks possible, geographically distributed, no direct internet connection (so less troubles about firewalls / security, and less costs = higher prizes).
Note: less troubles about security doesn't mean that there are not security measures on the field. All the systems are protected with state-of-the-art methods, but in this case a less complex configuration is needed. Bitmessage adds another layer of security.
Last but not least, Bitmessage is open-source and could be a useful tool and this game is one more reason for installing it and learn how to use it.
Edit: Installing and configuring Bitmessage is a few-clicks operation. Only lazy people wouldn't do it
Edit2: Connections to a webserver could be logged. On bitmessage there are not connections. Communication is secure because it's guaranteed by the Bitcoin Galore private key and the player's private key. I see a lot of advantages against a little effort for installing it.
I think what should be done and what would make it more suceesful is if a install wasn't required, you should make it browser based.

Sometimes it takes several minutes to connect to the network.
Check these links:

otherwise try to ask for support on their forum ( https://bitmessage.org/forum/ ).

Can i ask only how big is the bitmessage's community?
Can i ask only how big is the bitmessage's community?
I agree, it's a really interesting tool. Users are anonymous, but nobody can impersonate someone else's account.
It's not possible to estimate exactly how big is the community, however it's handling more than 5 thousands messages / day.
If you like lotteries, here you will find the one for you! Bitcoin Galore is a bitcoin lottery based on Bitmessage. It started in August 2014 and it's mostly known only within the Bitmessage community until now.
- like Bitcoin and Bitmessage it's decentralized
- it uses cool technology
- it doesn't require accounts, it's completely anonymous
- playing is extremely cheap ( 0.00001 BTC )
The lottery generates 6 numbers ranging from 1 to 90 every 100th block of the blockchain (about once a day) through an algorithm (published in the game help).
You can play by specifying one or more combination of 6 numbers (a combo) for only 0.00001 bitcoins/each (10 microbitcoins). When the winning combo is generated, each played combo is assigned one point for every matching number. If the combo scores 3, 4, 5 or 6 points it wins a prize.
There are 4 categories of prizes: 3 points, 4 points, 5 points, 6 points. On every round, the prize in each category is shared between winning combos of the same category. If there are no wins for that category, the prize rolls over: it's added to the same category prize of the next round.
Prizes are quite exciting. On average a 3 points combo prize is around 500 uBTC (50x), a 4 points combo 100 mBTC (10000x), a 5 points combo 2.5 BTC (250000x). So far there were no 6 points combo winners, actually the prize is around 27 BTC and growing.
You need to install Bitmessage ( https://bitmessage.org/ ) for playing. Once installed you can retrieve the game instructions sending a bitmessage to the address BM-2cXdbRBsBWXmdTqsN2s3jd28cpEunJX6Ek with the word HELP in the subject.
I started this project because I used to play national lotteries. Unfortunately those have a sensible house-edge and the way numbers are chosen is not clear. Bitcoin Galore has no house edge and the numbers are generated through a public alogrithm. Currently each bet is divided into 30 slices, each slice divided in the 4 categories and added to the respective prize one slice at every next round. This is done to achieve a smooth and constant increase of the prizes. Transaction costs for the payouts are deducted proportionally from the next round prizes.
If you have questions or advices for improving the service, you can contact me here or through Bitmessage at the address BM-2cTgDs4XPE2vNFqMGEe49jhRyfDeat22ba .
Plan your strategy and have fun!
