Yeah :sweat_smile: … I checked in about a week later, so I thought all the raffles were already closed until, lo and behold, I noticed the “Consolation” section of Raffle 3 and jumped in on this as soon as I could … after reading about the rules as much as I could. Glad I did for both raffles! Thank you, @ohko , for the chance!

Also, quick question (I apologize in advance if it is silly) regarding that last dice roll:

Unlike previous raffles, that last dice roll by @discobot has absolutely no relation with which emoji tiles will be chosen, correct? Unlike the :tickets: raffle tickets :tickets: before?

Hi! To find out what I can do, say @discobot display help.

@RosetteoXChrno the dice roll is used to seed a PRNG which is used to provide a deterministic result. The details of this are discussed in Raffle 1 in this post. If you have any questions, please let me know.

The lottery program is similar to the raffle program, but different in some aspects – both are open source. The lottery program and results will be provided in just a few moments.

Remarks

I have to say congrats to @RosetteoXChrno for astonishing last-minute snipe :dart: in Lottery 1 - I don’t think anyone would’ve predicted that :clap:

Personally I’m a bit disappointed that many of the scores are tied and therefore entry timestamp was used for tie breaking many entries. This is not as interesting as having the results driven by the entrants’ picks and will be refined in subsequent lotteries. :woman_mechanic: :man_mechanic:

Thanks to everyone who entered. If you have feedback on the lottery prototype, please share your thoughts below :pray:

:rotating_light: Winners, please contact me via PM :rotating_light:

Instead of contacting you all in order, I think this will help expedite the distribution of prizes while still upholding the original prize setup. Open a new PM to @ohko and –

  1. Based on your placement, (1st, 2nd, 3rd, etc), you will create an ordered list of your preferred prizes
    • If you placed 1st, you only need to include one (1) choice. First place is guaranteed their pick.
    • If you placed 2nd, you only need to include two (2) prize choices
    • If you placed 3rd, you only need to include three (3) prize choices
    • and so on…
  2. Order your choices with your most preferred game on top of the list and least preferred game on bottom

Example: @Towos2442 placed in 5th and will make a list of his/her five (5) choices out of the seven (7) available prizes and send it to me. The list will be ordered with their favourite choice at the top of the list and least favourite at the bottom.

This seemed like a really cool way of doing the giveaway, would deffo like to see more like this (though always open to new ideas too, I just find it kinda exciting :laughing: )

Thank you once again for a fabulous giveaway, and thanks again to all who donated games to it :slight_smile:
Congrats to the winners are also in order methinks :fist:

EDIT Wait, I’m one of the winners!?!? WHAAAT? How did I not see that :face_with_raised_eyebrow: :laughing:

Me too, honestly. Even though it seems more random than the raffle, I think a little bit of spit and polish can make this into a really fun giveaway game.

Yup! Now send me your seven (7) choices in order of most favourite to least favourite :mage:

Once the other six (6) winners have replied with their choices, I will let you know which prize you won.

Yeah I definately agree, little spit and polish goes a long way.

Done! Lucky I scrolled up just to see who placed where I guess :sweat_smile:

Love this format. Very exciting.
I think it’s because looking through the list of entrants gives the feeling that everyone participated in the process of determining the winner, if you know what i mean. And the list shows you that process; the choices and their consequences. The little battle of carrots. Whereas when you see a regular list of winners, it’s like everyone else wasn’t even there.

Or maybe it’s just me :thinking:

In yet another unexpected turn of events, it looks like @RosetteoXChrno will be forfeiting their turn if he/she doesn’t reply to me within two (2) hours. You’re just full of surprises, aren’t you!

In such a case, I will move down the line and contact the next winner. If any of you are growing impatient, maybe send this slow-poke a PM to light a fire under their butt :fire:

No offense the other slow-moving members of this lovely community :angel:

Just wanted to say another big thank you for the giveaway - my key is working fine, and Copoka is on my steam, ready for later >:]

Congratulations to all the other winners, and I hope you’re as excited and weirdly proud (considering it’s mainly luck based :laughing:) as I am! :grin: :heart:

Thank you, but I think this game doesn’t suit my playstyle. It would just stay and get dusty in my library I guess ^^’

Thank you for offering it thought and for the giveaway^^
