Topic: [WINNERS: BOELENS & BITCOININFORMATION] 2 USB Block Erupters - jdany's raffle (Read 5104 times)

I will agree with this. That would be in the best interest of us all.

Eitherhow, please don't send me anything yet, Jdany, I'd like to first away to see if I can get rid of the costs.

I have no idea either. Just wanted to show him the package. I do not blame him for this, because things like this can happen.

Maybe he put 10$ on some sort of paperwork at the USPS postal office but it got changed to 50 on the acutal package? I'm not sure if they do that themselves there.

I have to, sadly, disagree with you. You really wrote down 50, I guess in a hurry:



It's nice of you that you will send us some change and mistakes can happen, right?
You can send it to, uhm, my donation address I guess: "1TDJ6DskKUwHbujfEo1CjJXeHd2y14cXj"

Damnit.  That wasn't at all what I put on the paperwork.  I used $10.

Sorry about that.

Send me your wallet addresses.
I'll shoot you guys some change.  This wasn't intentional - and I don't know what happened.
It sucks for everyone.

I had the same problem. It isn't even worth 50 dollar. 20 dollar max. We can freely import something if the value of the piece is beneath 30 euro (40 dollar). If it had been marked as 10 dollar or something like that, we wouldn't had to pay this fee.

Just received my block erupter, sadly the value was marked as 50$ and thus I had to pay 22.98 euros of fee's, basically the same amount as the block erupter :p. Maybe I can still change it/get rid of it because they marked it wrongly, they marked it as a coin. But still, I hope I can resolve this.

Alright thanks!

I always ship on Friday after I get done for the day.
I'll send you a message when it's on the way.

Please tell us when you send the package

Yep! I hope we don't screw him over too much with shipping costs. And wow, I can't believe I won again! This is awesome!

I find it hilarious that both winners are Dutch.

EDIT: Send you a pm with my shipment info.

OH GOD. I WON. REALLY? HOW?
Normally I don't win these kind of things

Did i make it

How many tickets bought so far sir?

Very excited!

38 Minutes until the drawing.

Yes. I still enjoy having them for novelty purposes tho =P.

They are both red.  The last one you got from the raffle was red too - eh?

Can't wait!

Just under 14 hours to go.

Hehe. I already have 2 block erupters, I want every colour for novelty, really.

You should let me win this time Boelens!

Got it.

Thanks and good luck.

I bought 5 tickets.

I can sign for both addresses if needed.

I detected snarkiness - so, I doubt that is actual support.
But, good luck anyhow.

Seems I have quite some supporters in this raffle. Haha. I hope I win =P

Got it.  Good luck.

Ah hell why not.. My one lone block erupter is lonely.

Cheers sir!

Is that a prediction?

Boelens will win again

The drawing is tomorrow at 9pm.

I've also decided to give all of the proceeds to my local children's cancer and blood disorder center.
My wife and I will go shopping for books, games and puzzles for the kids next weekend.
We're buying the first $250 worth and then we'll add whatever this drawing brings in.

Since the difficulty doesn't make USB erupters very valuable anymore, we might as well do some good and not waste this effort.

I'm going to throw another block erupter into the mix.

1st place - USB block erupter
2nd place - USB block erupter

Actually, keenan won the last time (entered 1 minute before the drawing) and Boelens won the one before that (entered 2 hours 30 minutes before the drawing)
Mathematically, it shouldn't matter when you buy - but, late entries seem to work out better.

Got it, good luck!

Okay guys. Boelens will win, just like last time. He bought a few tickets at the last moment and won. Retreat!

Bought two tickets.

True, seems we have winner, or any takers right before deadline ?

It only takes 1 ticket. 

With these currently selling for 0.13 (w/coupon) and 10 tickets sold the expected value on this draw is already not great.

Play as many tickets as you like:  1EUDDTHgnd6zSyn6WEnqPaCeryB4Rq4ieE

10 tickets =0.10 BTC?
125 tickets = 1.25 BTC, right? 

So you are making more than quadruple profits?

Yep.  As long as no wars break out in the UK.

It'll be coming from the US.
---------


For everyone else:
If you think I will have trouble sending a package via post to your country - please don't play the raffle.
Wars, natural disasters, alien invasions, rapture, solar flare, volcanic eruptions... not my problem. 

does this include uk postage ?

Prize pool - There is no upper limit or lower limit of entries.  The prize pool expands with the number of entries.
1 - 25 Entries -   Drawing 1 winner - 1 Block Erupter
26 - 50 Entries - Drawing 2 winners - 1st = Block Erupter, 2nd = Block Erupter
51 - 100 Entries - Drawing 3 winners - 1st = Block Erupter, 2nd = Block Erupter, 3rd = 50% of the 51-100 Entry Fees
Following that pattern indefinitely.

Method of Draw - We use discovered blocks to pick the raffle 4 digit winner.
Starting at 9p 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

Win a (1) USB Block Erupter
