The Hobos will be hosting a weekly lottery. A lot of people have been suggesting one so The Hobos will host it for you. $5,000 will be the seed winnings for the lottery.

Lottery Size: $0

How to enter:
All you have to do to enter is send money and a number 1-50 to HoboEvents.

This command: /transfermoney HoboEvents 10,000 (A Number 1-50)

Once you do this, you're in and your name will be added to the list below.

When does the winner get picked?
Every Sunday I will go to Random.org (http://random.org) and find a number 1-50. The winner from the list below will win all the money from the amount of numbers sold. The money will vary depending on how many people buy into the lottery. If two or more people have the same winning number they will split the prize.

What if no one wins?
That is not possible. I will continue finding a random number until a winning number is chosen.

Why $10,000?
Well $10,000 isn't that much money from one player. It's about equal to one or two artic missions. Not that much to spend.

What if two people win?
If two people win the money will be split evenly between them.

How many times can I enter?
You can enter twice. It's still $10,000 per number. If you enter twice just do
This command: /transfermoney HoboEvents 20000 (Two Numbers 1-50)

Sorry but lottery isn't CT official money grabbing/winning method, so last try failed and player was almost banned for this as scamming..

Nice, a lottery.
When I come online I will play.  ;D

givemoney only works if the player/account is online, so it has to be /transfermoney

But this one is organized.

So I don't think this is a scam :)
I will participate in this.

Hobo, Mick does not wants to have players to be able to earn money without trucking. I have no problems with this but i honestly think that you should change this:


What if no one wins?If no one wins the pot will get bigger and anyone who bought a number previously will still be entered into the next lottery with the same number. You only pay once. Once someone wins you will need to repay for a number.


into


: if no number wins, a new number will be chosen till there is a winnin number.


This way prices will not be outragious high.
Example: if there are 100 players buying one ticket each: the amount will be 1.000.000 i think max amount should be around 500k max and maybe seperate prices for a number 2 and 3. Because if they prices are way to high for such a simple thing mick will not allow this im affraid. Keeping the prices reasonable and i think its ok, its the same as a carshow then xD

Please reconsider some things:)

Rules have been updated. It is now a weekly lottery. There will always be a winner each week. Price per number remains at $10,000 for now. If the pot gets too big it will be reduced for next week. Also the amount of numbers might decrease for next week depending on the amount of people that enter.

Awesome, I will most certainly be participating soon!

Last day to enter. A winner will be chosen tomorrow.
