I can only see the minority getting involved in this and unless enough people did, the prize wouldn't be to appealing.
-Minority? The prize would be impossible not to be appealing. There are over 250,000 sythe members you only need a fraction of those people to reach max cash one winner. I bet it wouldn't take but a week or two for the cash to be swelling especially at a 1-5m a ticket. I think the people doing it would be greater then the people not.
-And what do you mean by a minority? Please make this more viable statement. What minority on sythe? Do you mean like rich people, poor people, middle class people or what?
-Plus I have seen this work on other sites, its not like its a new idea.
I could see the idea working out, would draw more activity to the community plus additional funding.
-Yes I can see this as well. The Additional funding would be too great to ignore. Especially if tickets were sold 1-5m a peice.
This a great suggestion. I would definitely try my luck at this.
Perhaps we could have 3 winners instead of 1 per month?
-That could be very possible but you have to think depending on the size of the pot/taxes being taken out you would have to split it 3 ways the winner obviously winning the most and so on. But it would be worth a try, especially if as many people as we thought that would do this I don't think we would have a problem for people buying tickets and increasing the pot.
I like the idea a lot, sounds like a lot of fun. But if members are corrupt and whoever is running the "generator" you say.. Just give it to another member so that all the money goes to Sythe either way, or one of their friends so they can split it? I mean.. Look at it that way and give me a solution. Thanks. I'm not saying that it will happen, just saying that IT COULD.
-Well for one not just any sythe members are going to be able to run this obviously. This could only be dealt with the most trusted mods/admins and so on. Also the generator/picking will all be done by a program so that will be taken out of the hands so there would be no way of determining what numbers are going to be drawn. And for who holds the cash it would have to be the only trusted members aloud. We already do this on a day to day basis when we use MM"s and so forth. Some people trust billions and billions in a MM's hands while trade goes threw.
-I believe there are people here on sythe that can be trusted with these tasks.
#'s would be drawn off of random.org
Exactly.
-Also was thinking if your number was linked to your account then a message could be sent to your inbox notifying you of your winnings or loss? That way people wouldn't have to keep track of their numbers less chance of losing more chance of someone winning the pot.
