Lottery

[Tolley]

I always used to play both weekly and daily lotteries before i got broke lol. each time buying a few of both. But i've never won. So i was jsut wondering how many tickets did u buy for your win?

Just wondering if the only way to win is buying max tickets

[jbeining75]

I buy the max tickets everyday and still lose. The more tickets you buy of course the more likely you are to win but you have to remember if you buy one ticket and 25 tickets are purchased you have a 4% change to win. But if you bought 5 of the 25 then you have a 25% chance to win. Almost seven times greater. I need to win the weekly then I'm done.

It took a good 6 weeks before I won a darned thing. Then I hit a whole bunch of times at once. Works just like the real lottery you know. If there were guarantees there would be no mystery. When I joined, no one handed you free points. You had to work for everyone, too.

i cant afford to play, i have no money!

how do you get money?
anyone feel like donating me some??

[Tolley]

i used to buy a couple each time to make it stretch lol.

I've been thinking

5 Tickets in 50 gives me 10%
1 ticket in 50 gives me 2%.
spending the same 5 different times would give me the same 10%

but it wouldnt would it? cause each time is different and reset the chance of winning.

So it have been better to buy all at once?

[Tolley]

dgoulston you get points from posting or winning in thee arcade. I'd give you some but im only just at 1k and saving up lol.

[angelcakes]

im skint to, i splashed on name glowing which i quite like,time to save again...:hmm3grin2orange:

[jbeining75]

Yeah Tolley if you buy 1 each time you percent of winning is still 2% because as your number of tickets go up so does everyone elses...

[Tolley]

ok thanks, So my reason for winning was only buying a couple tickets. i had no chance lol

[ILuvMyGoldBarb]

I've yet to figure out how to win the points in the arcade. :(

[Tolley]

tournaments, kind of sucks now though as half the running tournaments mess up and no can win.

[ILuvMyGoldBarb]

all the tournaments I've seen are not complete because the people who signed up haven't played yet.

[Tolley]

when i won, i only bought 2 daily tickets

[crackatinny]

I have at times bought just 1 ticket and won, other times I have bought max and got nothing, luck of the draw I guess:wink2:

[cocoa_pleco]

ive bought probably 80 since ive joined and ive won twice

and good point, we are waiting on ALOT of people to finish the tourneys

[Tigerbarb]

The more tickets you buy, the bigger of a chance you have to win. Not if everyone gets the max # of tickets though.

[MandyL]

Hmmm so hoping and praying for enough points to buy one ticket probably won't do it? LOL

[cocoa_pleco]

usually you need to buy the max (10) to win

[ILuvMyGoldBarb]

is that the max on the weekly cocoa? I thought 5 was the max on daily.
