Hephaestos said: nice nice.... is that even legal? I doubt it is though cause you basically stole $1000 dollars from these people making them think they had a fair chance at getting the console... |
its legal

That would be silly because then he couldn't make money! |
Well yer, unless he sells more tickets. THat way more people would be willing to buy and he could make more money that way. I know alot of people who would rather waste $2 and have a 500:1 chance winning then a 50:1 chance for $20 spent.
I've paid that much for raffle tickets for less valuable prizes. That said, they were fund raisers for charities...
The idea of $100 tickets 200 of them max, But you win a $150,000 car must be a scam. That only ads up to $20,000. You probably either mean 2,000 tickets or a $15,000 car.
I call BS on this thread, nobody is going to give you $20 for some raffle tickets for a raffle you are running if they know those odds...
Or even trust you.

Ya I've thrown down $30 in a raffle for probably a $300 TV...that was also for charity though. If it's just a friend doing it, no way in hell. Even if he's my best friend ever, I don't think I'd just hand him $20, knowing that I have a 2% chance of getting a $230 net, 98% chance of -$20, and my friend has a 100% chance of a $750 net.
It's cool that you got that money...I sure would do that too if I thought I could.

Bet with disolitude: Left4Dead will have a higher Metacritic rating than Project Origin, 3 months after the second game's release. (hasn't been 3 months but it looks like I won :-p )
$10/ticket with minimum buy of two tickets? I am also surprised you sold them all. $6/ticket, though, that will probably work in most places.
As for the person who quoted that article: that's in California. Who knows about Texas!
@ the thread title: I'm not sure that "doing" money is legal. I wouldn't want to be the one you spend it on, anyway.

My advice to fanboys: Brag about stuff that's true, not about stuff that's false. Predict stuff that's likely, not stuff that's unlikely. You will be happier, and we will be happier.
