The Discoverer Game of Hazard - Cyberanson - 04-15-2009

First of all: I used the search function and recognized some efforts to establish a lottery before this.

What I intend to do is the following:
  1. everyone has the chance to participate
  2. bets doesn't matter, as long as they are above 1 million
  3. everybody has the chance to win
  4. the more players, the higher the jackpot
These are some basic facts. Now I will explain the details.

I will provide a simple method to participate. Maybe a small form on the Discoverer without required login, where you can post images of your bets with your name. (Secured with a little captcha to avoid spam bots.)

After a certain amount of time (longer duration) or the achievement of a certain sum (harder to implement), the drawing will start. Now there are three possibilities:
  1. one of the participants wins all the money (giving back a small part to the jackpot would be nice)
  2. the jackpot increases
  3. the Discoverer wins (the jackpot becomes smaller)
What do you think? Good as it is? Improvements?

Before we start, I would provide you with the source code of the algorithm, which handles the lottery in order to prevent mistrust.

Haha, I'll put in a mill or 2 for the heck of it.

Yeah, and here we go: http://the-discoverer.xcomm.de/game-of-hazard/1

It's just simple... submit your bet to The-Discoverer and post the way I did (subject = character name ; screenshot of bet + timestamp). And you're in. Drawing on Friday, April 17th.
