Quarter Chance Lottery
Seeing this new Forum category inspired me to come up with a simple little lottery game that I have named the Quarter Chance Lottery. (That's because you have a 25% chance to win). The rules are simple:
1. The game will consist of a fixed number of players in multiples of 4 (4, 8, 12, 16, 20, etc.) This game will have from 12 to 16 players depending on interest.
2. Each player will send in two cigars valued between $4 and $8. I suppose you can exceed $8 if you want to, but that is not required OR rewarded. You may send two of the exact same cigar or two different cigars.
3. Each player sends in $1 to cover shipping costs to the winners.
4. I will not be participating in this lottery because I wouldn't feel right if I won it, even though my lotto facility runs a "clean" game.
5. Once I have received all cigars, we will select the winners. For a 12 person game, there will be 3 winners and 4 winners for a 16 person game. Winners will be selected by using a blind list and draw. I will send a randomly ordered list to a non-participating third party person. Another non-participating third party person will pull the winning numbers from a hat containing all the numbers from 1 to the number of players. The winner drawer will post the the winning numbers and afterwards, the list holder will post the list. I will verify the list is the same order as what I sent and we will all be surprised together as we compare the winning numbers to the names on the list.
6. I will then randomly assign the 2-cigar sets to each Lot until it reaches 8 cigars. If the cigars you sent in come up for your winning Lot, I will re-roll for a different 2-cigar set. The bottom line is that you will not be receiving the cigars you sent in, if you are one of the winners.
7. I will send each winner their 8 Cigar winning lottery package.
8. In the event you sign up, but cannot play for some reason, a replacement will be selected.
9. Once 8 players sign up, I will send my address to all players and subsequent players. We will play with 8 players at a minimum.
