please do some advertising for the raffle.  Otherwise I have to refund everyone. (if we cant even manage to sell 100 tickets.)

So, the minimum amount of tickets you need to sell to raffle the unit is 100, and if you are not able to sell the 100 tickets you will refund everyone - correct?

Can you please state a clear finishing date for the raffle, meaning the day in which you will refund everybody if your target is not reached?

As you know this is a super time-sensitive investment (or "gamble", in this case), and each day that goes by the value of your Avalon is aprox. 1.3BTC less (which is what generates at current difficulty, overclocked at 70GH/s).

I want to buy a ticket, but will you specify a deadline when you will give up and refund all of the tickets if you don't have enough participants? Thanks.

things you own end up owning you
Well the guy is smart, he offers you a gambling game to get a good prize (the avalon) and he get to sell it for 250BTC which he wont get even half of it if he wanted to list it and he knows that, and the wining chance is reasonable 1/250 (if you are in for 1 BTC).

But I do not gamble Wink

Candoo. If you want to sell it, sell at a reasonable price and not a stupid one. 200 then to 250 BTC due to advertising I have heard it all now. You can do advertising and targeted advertising for less than 1BTC and get results. Classified ads local town listings. The list goes on for advertising and promoting stuff to sell.

If you want to sell it and at a good rate and not a stupid one contact me.

is 2,000 a mistake? lol  I would willingly pay $3,000 but I doubt he would sell for anything close to that Wink

I tried to sell it for 200 BTC. The 250 BTC is for the extra work on it and the advertising costs.

So you couldn't sell it for 250 BTC so you created a raffle?  Seems overpriced and that's why it was unable to be sold.

What happens when more than one person has the same "lucky number" in the TX-id?   Tongue

its already in the terms. We dismiss it when we have two winners and wait for the next block to pick another lucky number

btw, do you strip transaction hash out of letters too?

"If your transaction hash is ba82b38a2375652791e1366c5ce9b14fb8a17ea4fe42607ac3abaa9253eaf9e0 then you would be the winner by now (there is a 652 in it)"

Does this really belong here?  Perhaps move to the "goods" section.

The winner ticket is calculated with your Transaction ID and the block Hash of a not yet generated block.

To keep things more transparent, can you update the terms to:-
The winner ticket is calculated with your Transaction ID and the block Hash of the first block generated once the raffle address reaches 250 BTC.

Otherwise whats to stop you from choosing a block hash which suits you?


ignore me. just re-read the terms

Block 247100 will the first Block to pick the winner. But only if I've sold all 250 Tickets.  If we dont have all tickets then we will wait for block 248000  or 249000

Win a Avalon! Ticket only 1 BTC


I cant get the resale price I wish for my avalon. So Iam trying to organize a raffle.

Each Ticket costs 1 BTC and gives you the chance to win a 3 Module Avalon with up to 83 Ghash/s. Worldwide shipping with DHL Express.

Your  Chance to win is 1/250 per tickt.

Send 1 BTC to ->  1PJDM7TVoCfEkVNHri6zd2P51wj3sp6rps

If you want to purchase 2 Tickets then DONT sent me 2 BTC. Instead send me 2x 1 BTC.

Why?

I will use the transaction ID to find the winner of the avalon.



How will I calculate the winner?

The winner ticket is calculated with your Transaction ID and the block Hash of a not yet generated block.

How exactly does that work?

Lets take this block hash as an example:

000000000000006d5294079c891aa6d24f1816b5f53b56c228ca47cedc87a7b2

We cut the block to the first 4 digits and remove all letters. The hash should look like that now ->

000000000000006529

The lucky number is now 6529.  I will then search all Ticket hashes for the same number in the hash.  If theres no ticket/transaction hash with a "6529" in it, then we cut the last number of.

The lucky number would be 652 then.

If your transaction hash is ba82b38a2375652791e1366c5ce9b14fb8a17ea4fe42607ac3abaa9253eaf9e0 then you would be the winner by now (there is a 652 in it)


If we dont find a match, then we will wait for the next block and pick another lucky number. If there a two winners then we will dismiss it and also wait for the next block with the next lucky number. We repeat this as often as we need to find a winner


The Raffle wont finish until I've sold all 250 Tickets. I expect to have them sold within 7 days.




Block 247100 will the first Block to pick the winner. But only if I've sold all 250 Tickets.  If we dont have all tickets then we will wait for block 248000  or 249000




Feel free to take a look at my Trust Ratings. I wont scam anyone here. I will ship the unit.( yeah I get a great price for it, but its lot of work for me)
