Curio Draw | Test Draw/Lottery | 5pts per Ticket

[Zolbad]

Hello,

See 15th Post for details on test draw (Page 2)

This post may be in the wrong section, as it is not actually about trade. (If Moderators feel the same, please do the courtesy of moving this post to a more appropriate section)

I'm interested in starting a Lottery, or rather a "Draw" for curios, but before I do so I would like some community feedback.
First of all I'll briefly explain of it will work. To enter you will buy a ticket, each ticket costs 20points, while only accepting curios as payment. You can buy more than one ticket, even with only 1 curio. Once the payment is received I will give you a link to a website to register your ticket/s, since there were a few complaints on my last Dhelm "Give Away" stating that they were not on the list. (This will fix that). All curios will be added to a jackpot, and will be split between 1st, 2nd and 3rd place winners:

1st place prize = 65% of the jackpot
2nd place prize = 18%
3rd place prize = 10%

Number of curios will be rounded up with uneven splits. As you may have noticed there is 7% missing, these 7% will be used as not only payment for storage and maintenance, but also so I can afford to do more "Give Away"'s such as my recent Dhelm give away.

Now, I'd like to see how many people would be interested in something like this.
Please post any comments below. (negative or positive)

doesnt sound like a bad idea, if people are willing to trust you with their curios, you may need some kind of proof your not going to do this for a week and then fuck off with all our "tickets"

[Zolbad]

Well I guess you'll just have to trust me, honestly I kinda liked doing my last DHelm giveaway and I think this would fund me quite well for future ones. I can't provide any proof, but really, who wants to be known as the guy who fucked over half the forums?

Pretty sweet idea. It'd be nicer if you got some more people helping you with it though just to cut down on suspicion of corruption and fear of inactivity.

[zacty]

I'd definitely enter, sounds like a great idea if it's done correctly.

Each ticket will cost ~20points. As for the point system, It will be fairly similar to most traders on Apples For Oranges. Perhaps some slight adjustments to better fit the system.
For example a Q10 Pearl would be worth 3 tickets, and 7 Frog Crowns would most likely be worth 1 ticket.

Any idea when this will be starting if everyone seems interested enough?
