Topic: [WINNER: keenan84] Congratulations! USB Block Erupter - jdany's raffle - (Read 4285 times)

PM'ed you.

Tell me which wallet address you'd like it sent back to.
It might be a few weeks before I run another raffle, so I'll just get your funds back to you.

I know exactly how you feel.. I was running ragged yesterday too! 
Didn't want to touch too many important things...

 

I just thought you may want to know but yea it is cool with me!

After waiting a little while
The blockchain produced a new file
The hash was all off
The results caused me to scoff
My tears run like the Nile

Yeah, I noticed.. LOL already sent jdany a message to either put me in next raffle or if he is no longer running them I asked if he could send them back..   Hey, long day... I'm allowed a mulligan, right?

contest is over , winner has already been picked BTCminers.net

Put in 10 tickets..

18W2eMbVVwqwCSi9Ew3QtM1V51GBMLYiY6
15RYWA3zWNoNrXLzZEjUdDwBdeYNny2JcB

Both are from me, some funds were on the 15RY address the rest were on the 18W2

If I win, it will go to my pools incentive funds!

No problem.  Thanks for playing.

Ahh ok, I see where my mistake was made now.  Thanks for the raffle again it is very much appreciated!

No problem.
Additional winners are added every 125 tickets sold.
More prizes are added as more tickets are purchased following the rules below:

Prize pool - There is no upper limit or lower limit of entries.  The prize pool expands with the number of entries.
1-125 Entries -   Drawing 1 winner - 1 Block Erupter
126 - 249 Entries - Drawing 2 winners - 1st = Block Erupter, 2nd = 50% of the 126-249 Entry fees
250 - 375 Entries - Drawing 3 winners - 1st = Block Erupter, 2nd = Block Erupter, 3rd = 50% of the 250-375 Entry Fees
Following that pattern indefinitely.

Thanks for the raffle jdany but I thought this raffle was going to have 4 winners, no?  Congrats keenan84!

Thanks to everyone who played!
Congrats to our winners! 

This is my final Block Erupter raffle.  Stay tuned in a few weeks for the next jdany raffle!

You're the winner.
Please send me shipping info and this will get sent out on Friday.

no way! awesome!!!

thanks!!

Not to answer as Jdany, but ticket purchasing closed a while ago.

can I buy 3 more tickets real quick 

Yep, seems like you pretty much, congrats! =)

is it really a 105x number?!

Oh, duh. I'm an idiot.

If the 5 wasn't in play, it would be a 101X right now.
Good call/guess though.

7 is no longer a valid draw once a 5 is drawn.

0 - 6

Congrats. I knew it.. GG..

Since the first one is now 5, what happens if the second one is 7? There is no 1057.

2 blocks back to back.

:-(

blocks are slow right now. All the next asic batch must been turned off and en-route..

jesus. get some sleep man! what do you do?

I'm going to take a few extra minutes after this one to make sure everything is right.

I worked a 14 hour day today, so I am exhausted.
I don't want to make any mistakes...

Anything Can happen.

16 & 17 are the magic blocks...

The suspense...

lol. i hope you are right this time!

this is exciting!

Hunch, but I am wrong a lot.

What makes you say that?

*sigh* I believe you are going to win now.

thanks boss!

tickets are now closed - youre in Keenan

12kiuiVdTiYUA5ridr9S2GoWuaGUKVZQnP

Got my caffeine now.

You're an idiot.

Mainly just because the more tickets that get created/purchased, the lower the odds of winning are per ticket.
So say i buy (fake math numbers incoming) 10 tickets and there are a total of 100 purchased tickets, i have a 10% win chance.
If someone else buys 50 more tickets, i've now got a <10% chance to win

Then we add the math of "at XYZ tickets somone gets 2nd wich is 50% of winnings, at an even higher number of tickets, two blockerupters will be sent out aswell as a 2nd place winner"
And it becomes more complicated, but my point is still there, my odds will continue to go down.

Oh, you've sortof capped it at 125tickets per block erupter!, how silly of me to miss that.
No need to call me an idiot, i was just being one at the time due to info i didnt fully read

I think i may buy a few tickets

Why shuold there be a cap? Someone could buy 100 tickets but that's more then what the block erupter is actually worth =P

I"ll take 4 please:

FAQ -

Prize pool - There is no upper limit or lower limit of entries.  The prize pool expands with the number of entries.
1-125 Entries -   Drawing 1 winner - 1 Block Erupter
126 - 249 Entries - Drawing 2 winners - 1st = Block Erupter, 2nd = 50% of the 126-249 Entry fees
250 - 375 Entries - Drawing 3 winners - 1st = Block Erupter, 2nd = Block Erupter, 3rd = 50% of the 250-375 Entry Fees
Following that pattern indefinitely.

Method of Draw - We use discovered blocks to pick the raffle 4 digit winner.
Starting at 10p EST, the hashes from 6 consecutive discovered blocks are recorded.

Block 1 - 932a804a05ad7c1baa277fa1924d20c1b2c986d6883a3112d6
Block 2 - 7253a927900b56e0c814b80385b5a677178b950d2b6e786fc7
Block 3 - 85fab3f65504107264dec5fb3f5a3447d44e9196a869d1aea9
Block 4 - 7bba4e5649dd6ba1df720ed0acb199702840fac9d4084cd76e

Using only the numerals in those blocks, from left to right.
We will keep moving to the right until a have a wining numeral. (excluding the 14 zeros(for now))
I will let the first block pick the first winning numeral of our raffle number.
The second block pick the second numeral
The third block pick the third winning numeral
the fourth block pick the fourth winning numeral.
The fifth and sixth block will only be used if NO winning numbers appear in any of the block hashes. (unlikely to be needed)

So, our raffle numbers are 4 digits
1001
1002
1003
1004
1005
1006

In this example, the first three digits are all the same in our raffle numbers, so the fourth block will pick our winner.
Block 4 - 7bba4e5649dd6ba1df720ed0acb199702840fac9d4084cd76e
I simply move left to right until the number in the block hash matches a number in our raffle drawing.
1004 Would Win
