!!!The eUS Lottery!!!
NoneSuch
- Since I'm really bored and it looks like the eUS is in dire need of a gambling habit, I've decided to start up a weekly lottery! There will be 3 winners every week!
- The Rules -
- A single ticket costs 1 Gold
- There is no maximum amount of tickets per account
- Only citizens may enter this lottery, no orgs
- Along with your ticket purchase, please include a PM just for safety reasons
- I will PM you your lotto number(s) once I have received your Gold donation
- The lotto winners will be announced every Saturday between 12:00 and 24:00 eRep time and start back up that Sunday (So you all know I'm working from 1pm to midnight Saturday, so the article will be out sometime after 12:00am central time.)
- All donations are to be made to NoneSuch Industries, not this account! But please send your confirmation PM to my personal account, please.
- Deciding The Winners -
- So every Saturday, once all tickets have been bought, I will use Random.org to pick the winners! I will then publish a new article with the winning numbers!
- Payouts -
- Each winner (remember, there are 3 of them) will receive 30% of the pot!
- I keep 5% for my Housing Program and the other 5% goes straight into advertising for the lotto!
- This Week's Goal -
- This week I'd like to shoot for a 50 Gold pot! There are only a few days left so start buying your tickets!
---
- I'd Like To Buy A Ticket, But I Don't Trust You -
- Check my wiki, check the forums, stalk me on facebook even! I'm a very honest and trustworthy person.
- Still don't trust me? Let me tell you how this works. All the Gold is sent to my org, correct? There is absolutely no money in my org other than lotto funds. (That's a good way to find out what the current pot is by the way.) You can then check the donations list to find out where the lotto funds are going. If something looks iffy, call me on it, please.

If I had some cash I would buy one but I am short of gold right now, so sorry. 🙁 Maybe next week. 🙂
The NoneSuch industry is very wise and has many other
brilliant plans I have seen lately..🙂
I don't trust you and want to buy a ticket...
I'm intrigued
What about the other 60%?
okay let's break this down.
100%
of that 30% goes to the winner
down to 70%
5% and 5% to the Housing Program and advertising respectivly
now thats only 60%
so where does this go?
Moot, it says there's three winners...
So that takes care of the other 60%
nice idea
Thanks Fionia 🙂
@Vult and Moot: There are 3 winners, so each gets 30%
Impeach The President. That is the only road to salvation.
Nonesuch is an honest man...his housing program is on the level, and I'm sure the lottery will be, too.
