Hello

You missed out on 2 tickets from the previous raffle, which were added to the next one.

This is why you have 6 instead of 4 if I am looking at the right account that is!

all tickets will be drawn in one Raffle? or two Raffle? with the first Raffle previously drawn. because I also get Raffle 08.08

It must be a bug on the lottery, afaik a user can only get 4 tickets but you have 6 tickets. I think there are many other users have 6 tickets like you and makes the total entries jump so high.
If it is not a bug, so you must be a special player on this site and you get 2 additional tickets Smiley but you are so honest here to inform us about it. Appreciate it..

Anyone received a lottery ticket for the 9th-12th today? I placed a bet on Olympics game yesterday, but I do not received ticket for it? Any delays or is it because I receive other ticket for the re-draw lottery so I do not get the ticket for the 9th-12th lottery?

Assuming your account is also called panjul07, In order to get a ticket you need to bet on Olympic games. It appears your bet was on an ITF event


Can you confirm that to be the case?



Ups my bad, I thought I placed other bets beside the ITF event. So yeah, its my fault not to double check all my bets. Thank you

I also received my tickets for yesterday betting on Olympics matches and receiving tickets without any issue, maybe you missed to place bet on Olympics matches, that is why you had problem to get your tickets for that lottery.

I received my ticket for today and till now I have 5 tickets in my account. Hopefully one of them will win the next raffle. If I got the first place I'll use it to participate on EPL event. Wish me luck!

We will look into all options. At the end of the day, we want you guys to trust our lottery and that it is fair, and it is random.

I strongly believe that the lottery is very fair, because I ever get it. probably because a lot of people who never get it, so they were a little suspicious. but indeed, must prove this justice to make people believe and not much to complain about this Raffle.

Hi everyone!

We would like to apologize to all the users who missed out on the first Olympics raffle due to it being drawn too early.

To compensate for that we have created a new raffle which will be drawn on the 15th of August. All users who made a bet on the Olympics from 05.08 to 08.08 will receive one ticket for an equal chance of winning a prize.

We are still looking to improve the provably fair in order to have more accurate draw times. We appreciate all of your feedback and will definitely take it into account as first and foremost we build for the community.

The current system uses unique hashes from the blocks, and, when creating a raffle, we predict what block should be discovered around the same time when the raffle should be drawn. Upon the discovery of that block the draw is made.

On average, a block is discovered every 10 minutes or so, but it can skew by a lot, a good example is our first Olympics raffle where it was drawn 9 hours earlier due to multiple blocks being discovered hours apart from each other.

As always, any feedback and suggestions are highly welcome either here or for example by e-mail to our support.

We were aiming to have the draw time maybe +- few minutes or less.
Pretty much impossible to do this if you pick the block a few days before the drawing. The network is sometimes blockless for half an hour to even an hour, which makes having the draw time within a few minutes almost impossible. Your best bet would be to announce the block ~2 hours before the drawing (so people can verify what the block number is), and announce a block that is estimated around 30 minutes after the wanted draw time. People won't complain about a draw being a few minutes late, which is better than having it drawn too early.

It is currently provably fair. We should instructions soon to make it easy for you to verify the drawing

Thank you!
Good job trying to make it provably fair, but I can tell you without knowing the system that is won't be provably fair. I'm guessing you use a script that converts the hash into a number, which is pretty good, except that the public doesn't know what ticket number they have, and that you guys could easily swap a ticket around so that your alts win, making the other person lose instead. To combat this, try adding tickets live, and having a page display who owns what ticket that is updated every few minutes. That way, you can't swap the ticket numbers around.

You guys should just hire a third party like RHaver or Dooglus to do the draw each week or whatever.  Both smarter than all of us, experts in the whole "provably fair" and can explain exactly why something is provably fair in like 5 words.
