Topic: Charity Raffle - Tickets for "Claire" the Water pipe (Read 1480 times)

Message me when your done with the remodel, send me some pics of the place you want to display the art and i will work something out within budget for you to put the finishing touch on the new home.

Thanks WC, I had a great time! The weather in Jamaica was much better than in Canada , I see that other piece has already sold! You do great work, I especially liked Culture Cultivation, the detail is just unreal.  May have to get something in the future, a little light on funds these days, I am in the middle of a remodel on my home, when I am all done a nice piece of art would look great up on the shelf! 

Welcome back from vacation MGGB, i hope you had a good time !

I will be posting another water pipe sometime today, a traditional waterpipe turned in solid purpleheart.

Just got back from vacation . Congratulations Protokol .  I am sure you will enjoy it as much as I would have.  And I trust that WoodCollector did the draw fairly, no need to upload the video, it's all good!

Congratulations to the winner. Its a beautiful piece. If I smoked tobacco, I would definitely have participated.

Recorded with frapps. I will upload the video to youtube if MGGB requests it. I was informed of this before i even decided to have the raffle. The date and timestamp are on the video. 

In future, you should make a hash and show it here or something picking a number or providing some way that is provably fair. Unless you did this via a live stream that others were around, you could have used random.org multiple times or never have and just said protokol was the winner.

Protokol could've said I'll pay you 1 BTC to pick me as the winner, how would we know? I'm not saying you didn't conduct it fairly, but with all the things that go on around here if I was entered in this contest I would want the drawing to be conducted fairly and proven to me.

Look at my trust, you think if I was drawn by a member here they would want me to be the winner? Nope so just click random again and I don't win. Lot of people don't like me lot of people have favorites etc. Need to establish a provably fair method of drawing and stream that or prove verifiability.

I was going to buy a ticket last minute too. Bummer. Grats to the winner. Awesome price/odds for a piece like that

www.random.org

How did you determine the winner fairly?

WINNER = protokol

Raffle is now closed, Congrats Protokol 

Noon eastern standard time

What time tomorrow? I might buy a ticket or two, its of very high quality.

You should be educated on what constitutes drug paraphernalia. A water pipe is a tobacco smoking device for people who like their smoke to be water filtered.

you should be banned for posting drug paraphernalia

This raffle will end on Monday January 5th no matter how many tickets are sold someone is winning this piece. Even if the raffle is only between the two guys who have bought tickets so far. If we do not sell all 20 tickets then we will not be able to make the charity donation so please get your tickets soon. It appears that not many people visit the gambling thread and after this topic got moved here it stopped even getting viewed

I have had a lot of people request a raffle for an item for those who like to gamble and dont have a lot of money to spend on one of my art pieces, being the holiday season and things being slow i figured this piece would make the perfect item to raffle off.

I am selling 20 raffle tickets to win "Claire" the Waterfall Water Pipe. The winner will be responsible for paying shipping to their destination. The winner also gets to choose from the 3 bowls i have on hand at the moment which one they want with the piece.

The drawing will be held once all 20 tickets are sold and the winner will be selected using random.org to pick the number.

Due to the busy holiday season, please post the number of tickets you wish to purchase and the #/#'s of the ticket you wish to purchase as well. I will message you directly with a payment address for your tickets. Although i will be online at least a few hours a day, i cannot sit behind a computer all day over the Christmas holiday, i will send you a message as soon as i am online.

Tickets will be reserved on a first come first serve basis, please check the posts above yours to see if the # you want has been taken already, i will update the list in the OP at least once a day.


Price per ticket: 0.1BTC
Current Odds: 50%
