Site: http://dustlottery.com/
Twitter: http://twitter.com/dustlottery
Facebook: http://facebook.com/dustlottery
Current Release Version: v.1
Site Roadmap: http://dustlottery.com/pages/roadmap
Dust Lottery is an automated dust lottery system where mercs can buy tickets from lotteries created by both the site host as well as any corporation that wishes to created one. It is currently in testing but a functional phase. Help guides/videos on how to create drawings and/or buy tickets will be on the site, hopefully in the next couple days, for now you can use the instructions below.
The systems works as follows:
For buying tickets.
- Visit dustlottery.com and find a lottery you want to buy tickets for, note the ticket price and the lottery code
- Go in-game, go to Corporation Search, type in DLOTO (short for Dust Lottery Drawing), click Give Money.
- Take how many tickets you wanted times the cost of the tickets, input this as the ISK amount you are sending
- In the reason box, input the Lottery Code, this will tell our system that you are buying tickets for that lottery. If you leave this blank or it is invalid, it will default to the sites monthly drawing.
- Wait 30 minutes and you should see the tickets bough increase. In v.2 the host of the lottery will be able to see your lottery ticket purchase and maybe more down the road!
For creating a Lottery.
- You must have a login and the character name you use must match the character name you will use to send ISK from through your corporation. The corporation that character is in will be displayed as the host corporation and you must have wallet access to your corporation to validate a drawing.
- Once you have an account, on the website, dustlottery.com, on the current drawing page, click the Create Drawing in the top right.
- Fill in all desired information. Note that the Lottery Code that you input will be the identification code that merc in-game will use to identify your lottery when they are purchasing tickets.
- Go in-game, Corporation Search, type DLOTO (short code for Dust Lottery Drawing), click Give Money, R2 to switch to your corporation as the one giving the isk, send the exact ISK amount that you setup as the starting amount for the lottery.
- Now wait at least 30 minutes and your lottery will show up on the front page if you did everything correctly.
All drawing winners will be automatically picked at the end of each drawing from a script that queries Random.org for a winning number based on the number of tickets sold. The only manual process for the site is the payout to the winner and the hosting corporation.
Currently looking for feedback, questions, comments, etc
Thanks all,

The real winner here is Brush Master. He's created a system that actually quite profitable if he keeps it legitimate. All lotteries take a 10% site management fee. Even at it's current level, Contra's lottery at 16,750,000 ISK gives 1.67 Million ISK to Dust Lottery.com. I see this being a very useful service that has very little competition that the moment to encourage fee reduction.
Nicely played.

I wondered if there was a way to stipulate that if player X payed over a certain threshold to gain Y number of tickets, any additional ticket purchases would be refunded back to player X.
Right now, it's ease to use this system as a scam by flooding the pot with a lot of ticket purchases. I'm not exactly sure how submissions are 'queried' to random.org.

No. Reason being, anyone could easily switch to another character to buy more tickets. It becomes a game of cat and mouse which I will not play. Buying tickets increases the kiddy if the fee is not 90% and spamming tickets will be obvious to me and I will deal with the issue down the road or when it becomes very apparent that its effecting lotteries.

Indeed, sadly API can only read the wallet, not do transfers for me. The winners will be listed with payouts and status. I will track it and have wallet transactions just like with those that host lotteries or buy tickets.

Would not work, people have many alts and without Dust releasing an SSO to help validate PSNs and I have no data on old a character, nothing to really fight such abuses, so at this time, they are unlimited. Not sure how someone would scam a lottery by sending a ton of ISK to a wallet they have no control over.
Random.org just picks the winning number which then corresponds to a ticket in my system. I hand Random.org the range of the tickets numbers, it hands back a single number, I then look who that is in the system and bam, thats the winner. If your not sure how Random.org functions work, you should checkout http://Random.org

Its kind of a weird setup though for "scamming". There are 18 tickets sold for that faction warfare alliance trial lottery one.
Each sold at 500k. 90% goes into pot. It is currently at 18.1 million. So 8.1 Million was from ticket sales and it started at 10 million.
Let's say I decide to buy enough tickets to get a 50% chance of winning. So I need to buy 18 tickets for a total of 9 million isk. The total is 26.2 Million Isk. My profit if I win would be 17.2 Million Isk. So my money would be 291% greater than it was originally. Not bad for 50/50 odds. If I wanted to have a 75% chance of winning I'd buy 54 tickets. This would cost me 27 Million isk and the pot would be 42.4 Million isk. My profit if I win would be 15.4 Million Isk, and my money would be 157% of what it was originally, still not terribly for 75% odds. If I wanted 90% odds I'd buy 162 tickets at a price of 81 million. Pot would be 91 Million, profit would be 10 million, and my money would be 112% of what it originally was. Which is not terrible for a near guarantee.
However it is important to note that the last profit number was 10 million, which is where the lottery started at. Additionally these tickets are paying out at maximum percentages. If the ticket was adding 75% instead of 90% to the pot then the risk/reward would worsen (50% odds for 276% original investment, 75% odds for 142% original investment, 90% odds for 97% original investment). The risk/reward is also highly dependent on participation and initial pot. If the pot were 91 Million and tickets were 500k you might see more people giving it "a go".
However what instead would occur is people would be checking the lotteries right before "finish" at which point they'd run the above numbers and determine what was statistically in their best interests and pay accordingly.
BUT they wouldn't be the only one most likely. They'd be running the secondary game of "will anyone else game this lottery?" in which the system doesn't update for 30 minutes. Indeed if you are playing for 95% odds, and someone decides to pop in and "game" for 75% odds, you would have (in the above example) bought 162 tickets and they 54 tickets. The total tickets would be 234 and your 90% would drop to 70%, and their 75% would drop to 23%.
So perhaps you do so with 1.5 hours left to "establish dominance", You buy 162 tickets and the pot is now 91 million and 180 tickets are circulating. Someone else takes the risk and says I'll take 50/50 odds. They pay 90 mill for 180 tickets and the pot is now 172 mil, and this person has a chance 50% now to make 191% his initial investment in addition to any latecomers who want to buy individual tickets with this giant pot on the line. And this is all under fairly ideal circumstances as well.
You can also fairly guarantee people will always buy more tickets which makes it harder to buy into good expected profits, and you can also know that such an easy profit opportunity with minimal necessary savvy will draw in even more. Gambling theory is... well researched and I'm guessing well funded though in this case the creators of the lotto are the most responsible for results, but the more popular the site was the more difficult it would be as well.
THAT said, the main reason to limit it would be because people mass-buying tickets last minute is not terribly fun for everyone else.

Hey Brush I may have gotten a little emotionally invested in the math.
IR = Investment Return - Total you will have if lottery won compared to what you invested (if you put in 100m and win 200m this would be 200%)
iP = Initial Pot Size
OW = Odds of winning (for person contemplating purchase)
T = Ticket Price
sT = Sold Tickets - Tickets already bought
TPP = Ticket Price Percent that is placed in the pot
If you look at a lotto you can know the initial pot size, sold tickets, ticket price, and ticket price percent for pot.
If you then say "I want a 95% chance of winning" you have the "odds of winning".
With those numbers you can determine the possible "investment return" with the formula:
iP * ( 1 - OW ) TPP
----------------- + ------
sT * OW * T OW
Which isn't very helpful because I didn't include how much you wanted to invest and etc. But that isn't important in this case.
What DOES matter is we can convert that to find sold tickets which results in:
iP * ( 1 - OW )
--------------------------
T * ( IR * OW - TPP )
For the sake of argument let's call "Odds of winning" 50%, and investment return of 200%.
What the above formula says is "With your starting pot size, tickets at that price, and a ticket percent to pot of that number someone could purchase enough tickets for a 50% chance of winning with an investment return of 200% until X number of tickets have otherwise been sold". Which is not too big of a deal.
But if I use it on the faction warfare lotto example and I want a 90% chance of winning and a an investment return of 150% I could find that with a 10 million starting cost, 500k ticket cost, and 90% ticket to pool return, then when 5 tickets are purchased I can no longer achieve that investment return and keep a 90% chance of winning. The lower the number the better, and the farther they expect the actual number to get away from that number the better.
As a more realistic example of "utility" I input for the same lotto a 75% chance of winning and a 150% investment return. The result was that if 22 tickets were purchased before me (and I could guarantee no others would be bought) then I could still achieve those numbers. The importance there is that statistically speaking if I kept investing in 75% odds that would give me a 150% investment result, then my money would grow at a rate of 12.5% depending on how quickly I could invest.
As I mentioned in the previous post the odds of someone managing this is minimal (though timezones and etc), but you could likely whip up a "minimal" circumstance where if someone is being a bit too generous then they can be warned that while it's great that they are doing it, they might have some unintended consequences. That part can be tricky but as you do lotteries you can use historical data. If you keep track of the ticket price v current cost on average of purchasers you might manage this.
Anyway my suggestion would be take the investment return formula, decide on a baseline odds of winning which would be "bad", a reasonable number of ticket purchases to be expected, and then a "warning" level for investment return. Where you can say that at the current numbers it may end up worthwhile for someone to "buy out" the lotto.
Oh wait, screw those above ideas. Use the formula to recommend a number. So they list a ticket price, an initial pot, and you recommend a ticket return percent, or they list an initial pot, a ticket return percent and you recommend a ticket price.
idk, have fun, do what you like, if you have any questions on the math above just ping me on IRC

Found a little problem with your math...
You are saying you need to buy 18 more tickets for 9mil that is what you are using as an expense that is your ISK so you can no count it towards your profit your profit will be only that of ISK others spent so 8.1Mil while you invested 18.1Mil yourself.
So you still have the 50/50 chance of winning but you are risking more than twice the reward.

Ah took me a second, think I see the issue you are referring to.
Quote:So my money would be 291% greater than it was originally.
Is incorrectly worded, should be
Quote:So my money would be 291% of its original total.
As in 9 mil ISK being spent, for a total of 26.2 mil ISK post, which if won would be 291% of the original amount or an increase of 191%. Generally when I am showing percent increases at 100% above I prefer to use the total change rather than net change.

added a public ticket log that you can see when viewing a lottery, http://dustlottery.com/lottery/amirite
for now it is public but may added a privacy feature in the future.

if I want 4 tickets, do i have to send them individually, or can i just go ahead and, for example, send 100 000 ISK to a 25 000 ISK lotto and expect that I've received 4 tickets, rather than paid 100K for a single ticket?
Just curious and love the concept! JUST EPIC! Now if only we could see custom made advertisements in-game and could really start getting user generated content on a regular basis inside our MQs.

only 1 transaction per lottery is needed, the script knows how to divide total by ticket cost

Coding on backend continues, I know I have had some requests for things like private lotteries, restricted to xx alliance or corporation, will definitely consider this down the road.

Good evening, I'm using google translator. Tonight I created a lottery to try the lotus crazy and have sent 5 million ISK not understand English very well and I think I did everything right. But it's been several hours and still not on, maybe the problem is that I sent the money from the character rather than the corporation? or activated it takes more than 3 hours?
-á Thank you. |

Please confirm where you sent the isk, i do not see any entries. If you are trying to setup a lottery, you must make an account on the site, setup the lottery and then send isk.

Ok I found your entry, the one for the amirite was processed. Your one that you were trying to make a lottery. If you create an account, http://dustlottery.com/users/register
use your character name Bes Amelo Negro
then created a lottery http://dustlottery.com/drawing/create
and have a starting amount of 5,000,000
your lottery will be created.

For now we can take advantage of existing mechanics. Every player in this corporation has director privileges, thus wallet access. So when the the lottery ends funds are deposited by your system back into the corporation pools and the members of XERCC feed like piranhas.

Jadek, I think your term of scam in description will actually scare off most people.

Not the members of Xer Cloud Consortium. We have an understanding on the irony of using the term 'scam.'
Regardless, it would be nice to edit and correct a lottery description after submission.

the problem with your send was that you sent it from a character. Lotteries can only be created by corporations as that i how we track it currently. I will mark yours down for refund on my next payout cycle.

I imagine that's not something Brush would handle for verification reasons. You could still very easily hand out a code to the announced winner of the lottery on your own accord.

Yeah thats what i was kinda thinking. Its more like getting permission from mr. Brush to put it in the lottery description.
you could even give different codes for first second and third place.
payout for first place plus code
second place a pretty cool code
third place, a common code |

This sounds like a good idea. I would highly suggest that you create a thread here in the Code Bazaar forum section to officiate any code transfers. Just good business practice.

Very good advice. they would have to be templar codes to be fully protected in the code bazaar. but i was also thinking like a lav bundle code or exile AR code too, both of which still exist and work, but arent supported on the forums because they are playstation codes.
I guess to be fully legit and trusted it would have to be templar gear and the uplink |

Hello Brush Master. I would like to start a sizeable lottery to our brother mercs out. I would like to offer runner up prizes in the form of Templar bpo set and the Templar uplink.
Would you allow that? And if so how exactly should I go about doing that.
Any response would be appreciated.
Thank you for your time |
