Strich's Liquidity Service proudly presents the fastest Lottery ever been seen in Eve. And only you decide how good your odds should be. Maybe you want 50:50 or 70:30? No Problem, its your choice!


Roadrunner's Lottery


N E W S

  • I am back from my weekend trip.
  • The Nighmare Promo Lotto is up
  • Read post 3 for some quotes from the old thread.
  • 31.05.2011: Change of rules: I reserve the right to pay out the price of a ship instead delivering it!



Getting interested?

Here is the link to the Lottery:
http://www.srl.eu.tf/
(Sometimes this link could be slow, you can use the direct link instead: www.wh40kger.de/srl)


  • All you have to do is register and send some ISK to Alex Stokes with the reason: srl

  • IF I am online, and only then this way will be faster then the normal way, you can send ISK with the reason srl now.
    • I will then edit your Wallet instant at the page :-)

  • You can register through the ingame browser. Then it is not necessary to provide a API key. You just have to trust the site.

  • Everyone who registers and send at least 50.000.000 ISK will get 5.000.000 ISK on top!

  • Roadrunner's Buddy Program
    • Invite a friend and get 10 M Isk!
    Your friend just have to write a message, that he was invited by you and deposite at least 5 M Isk!
    Further bonuses (for further advertising) will follow.[/gold]

  • Your favorite price is not available? Create your own lottery! Look if the price you want is in the lottery list, choose it and press create! Then you can start playing for that price as long as you wish.


  • Strich's Roadrunner Lottery evolved! Be a part of it.

  • Every time you win a price, you can choose to redeposit the value of the price or you can choose to pay out the ISK, or you can redeem the price itself. I reserve the right to pay out the ISK instead of delivering the price (in effect since 31.05.2011).

  • If you redeem the price itself, it will be delivered to Jita normaly in 1 day.



This is still the same principle: Choose your chance and start winning. You needn't wait for others!

Special Thanks to Dognose (member in the German forum), who has programmed this awesome site!

Security Issues:

  • This lottery is runnig for some time now. Not a single ISK was lost!
  • It stared 2010.09.21 16:43:00 but not in the current version. At first I run the same princip using "chribbas dice" since 2010.12.19, the moment the homepage was started.
  • You can get an overview, over all participants from the first iteration at Chribbas Dice Page here:
    • http://eve-files.com/tools/dice/view/01-Shiseido-Raven-10 If you are in doubt, just ask some of them :-)
  • The thread of the second iteration can be found here.
  • This lottery can also be found in the biggest german forum here: https://www.eveger.de/forum/showthread.php?t=33700
  • If bugs appears on the page or something went wrong, I will investigate that and refund the ISK.
  • If someone tries to cheat I will see it. In this case I keep any ISK send for the inconvenience the character will also be banned (I know this is not that helpful, but that would be just some clicks for me)


Some additional information:
Normaly I am online all the time (eve is in background when i work or learn).
This is a single man company and I live in Europe, so between 23 - 8 o'clock (Eve time) I should sleep a bit ^^

[FAQ]

I dont know If it is random, you can code anything?

Thats true. I tried to get a second FTP account with read-only rights, but my web hoster denies that (one.com). If someone want to read the support request I can provide it (wont post that here, because my real name is in that request). So I can just provide the code here and promise that this is the code which is used at the page:

//Zufallszahl würfeln,
$rnd = mt_rand(1,100);

(siehe: http://de3.php.net/manual/de/function.mt-rand.php )

Dann wird einfach nur geprüft:

If ($UserChance >= $rnd){
//User hat gewonnen
//Kauft er ne 50% Chance, und "rnd" ist 50 gewinnt er gerade noch
}else{
//User hat verloren.
}

http://de3.php.net/manual/en/function.mt-srand.php
Note: As of PHP 4.2.0, there is no need to seed the random number generator with srand() or mt_srand() as this is now done automatically.


What the hell is the estimated win you are talking all the time?

See: The estimated win is rising all the time, even if you win and I loose.
For example: a 50% chance to win costs 100 M Isk. The ship itself costs 190 M Isk
If person 1 wins the ship I loose 90 M Isk.
If person 2 looses the ship I win 100 M Isk.
In both cases the estimated is risen by 5 M Isk.
Because in the case that these games were played infinite times I would earn 5 M per game in total (as you can see in the example, I won 100 M from person two but had to pay out 90 M to person one so in total 10 M Isk/2 games playe = 5 M Isk in total per game)

Thanks for that free drawing. Anyhow tried my first time using the system. Went up against a wolf on a 50% chance. Unfortunately I lost. Will try again tomorrow =] Gotta win at least once so I can say I won something.

Hey,

a bit late but I was a bit busy the last times.
I had the ticket 45 and I won the drake.
The lottery is really fast and had a easy handling.
I hope the lottery has in future more faction ships.

Thanks for the prize and have fun with the lottery;)

Regards Lesh


As a negative statement I recommend reading this:
http://www.eveonline.com/ingameboard.asp?a=topic&threadID=1387613&page=10

In contrast here is one, who invested ... phew ... hard to remember but I guess about 2 Mrd Isk and:
Arkan Eto worte: "Yup, I cashed out with about 5 Billion isk of mach's

Trenden Atwater wrote: "Put 600 million isk in, after all done pulled out 1.8 Billion isk.

over 1.2 bil profit in under 5 minutes."

Unholey wrote: "So I deposited 1 billion ISK, and started playing vindicator dice, I loose a few times and I'm almost ready to start playing some cheaper ships when I win one... WOW I won all my ISK back... So I think might aswell try again.... ANOTHER vindicator!... now I'm really going nuts, 1 billion profit w00t!

Guess what I won when I rolled another 30% chance?

3 vindicators in one night, enough to earn back the losses I made at somer blink :D

Thank you for a great fun game Alex, I will be back here alot more (to loose the 2 billion to you )"

Dunno if he came back ^^ Cant remember. Hope he had fun with this isk :-)

Jin Jemai wrote: "Very nice. I deposited 50m, got the 5m bonus. Lost a 60% roll on a manticore, but then won two in a row. I redeposited the winnings and started up a Hulk roll which I won at 20% chance. I asked for the isk and it was sent within a few hours. All in all, I walked away with almost 4x what I put in.

Great little site to kill some time and to win/lose some isk."

And bump
Edit: I got a nice little hint and I am not sure if I should introduce that :
wrote:
Your site is weighted...

My suggestion would be to have the numbers picked at random (YOUR NUMBERS: 1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9,10) should be more random. You should have YOUR NUMBERS: 1,5,87,32,54,12,7,4,etc...

Then the dice roll random as well.

Just a suggestion. Awesome idea.


What I wont introduce is the possibility to choose numbers, because it would slow down the whole thing too much and that would break the integral concept of this lottery (but don't get me wrong I am still open for suggestions).

Should I introduce random picked numbers that could win and then roll the dice?
