Hello everyone
It's been quite a while since the last article I wrote, real life and my own lazyness getting in the way on a day to day basis.

I got bored. Had an idea. Postponed putting it into effect for a long time. But this seems as good a time as any.

So let's try this.

eUK Pick 3 Lottery

Those of you who aren't familiar with the concept, here's how it goes;

-Lottery is you buying a chance to win a large amount of cash for minimal investment.
-Pick 3 is the name, in case you hadn't gathered that info already, it means you pick three numbers
-eUK is the citizenship of potential participants/winners.

Rules / info

-Tickets cost fifty country currency each the money is to be sent here:

-Participants may pick their own numbers, or be assigned random ones. Write your numbers in the comment section or ask for them there and I will assign you your random numbers.
-Numbers to be picked are to be between 0 and 9 and will only result in a win if picked in the correct order corresponding to the winning draw. Two winning numbers wins you 100, get all three for the jackpot.
i.e winning draw is 129
player one picks 329 ; wins 100
player two picks 921 ; wins jack squat
player three picks 129 ; wins the jackpot and tons of new friends who ask for monies
-Participants are allowed to buy 5 tickets per draw. ( might increase that over time if it gets really popular, we'll see.
-Tickets only last for one draw.
-There will be two draws per week. (ideally)
-The first jackpot will be set at 10k cc ( I accept large donations to make that number bigger). Jackpots will be raised as the lottery progresses and becomes more popular.
-Half of the money from ticket sales goes to raising the jackpot the other half will be divided four ways amongst trustees ( oldfags i know won't take the money and run ). The second half of the money is meant to be accumulated until its a relevant number and used when our country is in a crisis such as invasions of our land, hostile dictators or someone robbing us blind so we have nothing left for any government actions.
-A random number generator will be used to pick the winning draw.


Final note

I'm expecting some people to criticize this idea, say what you will, if you don't want to participate just don't.
Those who think i'm just gonna take peoples money : I know we '' are all wayne '' but come on...!
I'll get someone more talented to do some nice graphs for the next article so we attract the remaining 90% of eUK to this lottery.

Enjoy responsibly,

Suezo
