i tried it out last night after seeing on the forums. if the coupon thing is still active, it didn't work for me or my alt. i dropped in 100m and pulled until i ran out - roughly 65 pulls, spread out between the non-faction tickers - and won an ishkur (the only AF race i can't fly, of course) and two 3m prizes total. i might try it once more and hope that my luck was bad, but that's pretty poor odds, all considering - two bottom-level prizes and a 20m-isk ship for 100m and 4.6% win rate.

edit: forgot to mention that I haven't seen my ishkur yet, either, so really i won 6m isk total. do i need to do something to get my ship?


Did you go under the WINS button at top and select to either have it in isk or delivered to hub?

90% payout my ass.

Only won twice in about 35 spins for a total of 9m of 85m put in.


It also appears that your "wins on this site" box just recycles the same wins over and over and over....


Depending on what spinner you are on, and what prize is up for grab on it, there could be just 1 more pull for a 1 bil ship, so it's kinda hard to estimate win percentages based on a single player. In theory you could put in 990 mil and not win anything serious, and leave the spinner, where the next player pulls one and gets 100x back because the prize was 1 billion. So bottomline the payout percentage is based on total plays, not of what each player puts in, or it would be pretty boring.

Although I'm working on some site wide statistics that displays all deposits (anonymously), and all wins combined to give a clear indication of in/outs. The 90% is, as previous explained, calculated on prizes vs. paid isk.

The winning box is sadly broken inside Eve browser, not sure if the jquery is too harsh for it, but it works fine in external browsers.

Easy to start, winnings are delivered quit fast after redeeming them in the win section.

Also tried out with several smaller cash transfers to see how that handled. All went smooth.

I tried this out this morning (decided to be flash and gamble with 120 mill). A few spins in on one of the slots and i've netted the jackpot! (1.25 bill at the time).

Payout was fast (about 45 minutes after requesting a cashout), would definately recommend to others!

I invested 5 minutes of my time and got a PLEX on the first spin... What does that tell you? Cashed out and I just made 650M isk. This could be dangerously addictive Cool

Ok, here's what happened:

I was a bit bored at work and decided to take a break and browse some eve forums when suddenly, I started to check the lottery services. I never played with my eve isk before and I don't like to risk, but I was bored and stuff, so I saw a lot of them and after like 15-20 mins I decided to log in, check and adjust my market and contracts stuff and see how this game goes.

I saw that there is a 10mill isk free voucher for first-timers so I got nothing to lose, hell, I thought, I'll just try this out!

Opened in-game browser, checked the prizes for the faction stuff ( damn 50mil is a lot to risk!), checked amarr and the others but eventually I ended up clicking on minmatar as I'm one of them.

Just stared at the "winnings" tab to see how many players win every minute then I just clicked the magic "SPIN" button and saw the first silver-face icon, then the exact same for second one, then the third one, blinking and I read the text:

"You just won the JACKPOT! 3,140,800,000 ISK transferred to your wallet."

Cash out, close browser, waiting for the contract and I hope I won't end up wasting all my money just because I've won first time!

Yeah, I thought I misread a comma in that amount of isk or that it's a scam or something, then my second thought was: "Damn, if I've won this then this game can seriously be ADDICTIVE! I should just walk away and dont risk the whole amount!"

Anyway, I got the money and I'm really glad and feel SUPER lucky for winning the jackpot for my first try! Definiately not a scam so be patient and enjoy the game! just don't bee too stubborn and know when to quit!

Cheers for the great game (and for my fitted machariel also XDDD)

Dude, I won the jackpot of more than 3 bil with the free tokens and first spin. It's just luck based like any other gambling game! Definiately not a scam as I received my prize in about 10 hours!

Good luck for everyone!

I have checked the logs and haven't found your name anywhere, are you sure you did play or using an alt?

Please scroll up, check those who won, check their corps and alliances. If its just me and my "alts" winning, I seem to have alot of them and in alot of high ranking corps and alliances.

Its gambling. In order to win 1 billion for your 100 million deposit, this means 9 others will win nothing. And with prizes costing way over 3 billion (Rorquals) - 250 million is relatively nothing. You won isk + tokens? The tokens alone is worth 100 mil, so thats already a decent return with those.

If you don't like the game, thats fair, and if you wish to vent frustration that you are a unlucky player, thats fair too. I'm not looking for "all sucess stories" here, we all know that there are mostly losers in gambling too. If you go to Somers site (which I actually like and recommend), and place those 250 mil on a big ship bet, there is 15 out of 16 chance you don't win it, but that doesn't make it a scam. That just makes you among the 15 of 16 that paid for that ship for lucky number 16.

The trick is either to keep trying till you cover your losses, or simply stop. Ask Roaden, he made 24 bil so far and keep playing, and no, he is not an alt or friend of mine either.

100m put around 50 won, total 150 lost. I know it's lottery but these stats aren't even close to 90%. Mainly on gallente and matar machines. I don't have balls to even try these 25 with such chances. I'll try next 100m, if it won't work, then I'll go back to somer, or eve holdem, I like gambling but...
@edit
Second even worse, around 10m won in isk 100 lost, total 110. If you don't have untold bilions to lose, better leave it alone and try something else, thats from my exprience. I've seen increase in jackpot to 1,7b in hour, but winnings were even from todays morning, I don't know what to think bout this.
