Saturday's Raffle

[Spartacus]

here's the deal. I uploaded 10,000 karma. first 10 to give me a K hit via this thread are entered into the raffle. the final digit in the UCLA(7est) score tonight will determine the winner.0=1st k hit,1=2nd k hit and so on.

i'm not doing this to make karma as it's doubtful any 10 will hit enough to equal 10,000. I just want to have a little fun and reward those who don't blow their karma hits by noon

If you already hit me today,then post here and I'll assign a digit

 

[WarriorPL]

Wow that's confusing.

What?

You must spread some Karma around before giving it to 4everhung again.

[Spartacus]

let's get this rolling
I have some future ideas for bigger "raffles"
the fun is tying the results to a real world event

This from 8 hours ago

I'm interested to see how you tie this to a real-world event. I've considered running a raffle akin to this in the past and publishing code beforehand which would then be used to generate the number so that everyone could see the fairness. Finding ways to get a starting value for the random 'seed' is interesting since one wouldn't want anyone to be able to fiddle or predict the result.

I'm using the UCLA/Memphis game tonight
the final digit in UCLA's total determines the winner
0-9 possible and since it's basketball all figures have an equal chance of occuring
I thought this through

 

[Spartacus]

I'll use televised events so the entrants can tune in and watch the results

it's closed now as all 10 digits have been assigned

 

[WarriorPL]

I'm still confused as to how this works.

 

[nycgirl]

I'm still confused as to how this works.

If UCLA's score is 79, then SoreArms get the Karma.

If its 81, then I get it because my number is 1.

you have six
if UCLA scores
66,76,86,96,106,etc.
you win

 

[n i c k]

It's going to be 0, so I'll get it.

what # do i have?

you don't have a number
part of the point here is to arrest the expending of all your karma hits early in the day
it may catch on

 

[WarriorPL]

If UCLA's score is 79, then SoreArms get the Karma.

If its 81, then I get it because my number is 1.

Thank you very much. That's what I thought... just the wording was confusing.

just be clear on the event that settles
