Mabinogi Lottery

**osayidan**

Not sure if this qualifies for here or mabi talk section but whatever O:
This is a copy of the post about this on the official nexon forum.
-------------

I started much later than i expected on this, so it's a few hours late to beta release from what i expected, but here it is finally O:

NA Mabinogi Lottery

You can find all the info you need here, be sure to read it so you don't do anything wrong or ask questions that don't need to be asked.
Info: NA Mabinogi Lottery

Do not mention how ugly the website design (or rather complete lack of one) is, since i started work on this so late i had no time to make one if i was to open this up today, so deal with it~ I'll be making a design when i have time, for now it works and that's what matters =D

For now, this is for Ruairi only, since i have no characters on the other servers. If you want to sponsor one of the other servers, let me know and i'll set things up for that.

You can consider this an open beta release of this, please report any bugs so i can fix them ASAP and hopefully have it 100% for the next lotto event.

And, since i know some people will not read everything, attempting to enter more than one character will result in the extra characters being blacklisted from participating, i'm sure some people will find their way around it, but theres not much at all that can be done about this either way, especially since i have so little to work with.

The date for the draw is to be determined, since this is the first time. Once everything is going smoothly these will have proper start and end dates.

Enjoy~ and again please report bugs O:

Since I'm helping to supply for the lottery prizes, would it be an infringement to enter my name? I know the drawing is random so it's not a conflict of interest per se, but still, just wanted to check to be safe...

**osayidan**

Anyone can enter so long as theres a character on ruairi XD
Not sure if i'd buy the dyes now or wait for next tuesday... would depend when i plan for the draw, so that people don't have like 10 minutes left on the dyes XD

I'll pitch in a party feather and an advanced feather as an effort to get Mari inside that server list. I registered my Ruairi char in, btw. Hope registering alt chars don't violate your rules.

Alt chars no problem (so long as only one character total), but this is one thing i didn't think about, people registering at multiple servers at one period of time. At the moment, if you register at one server, if you try to register on another it will blacklist the second character. I'll fix that up when i add in other servers. For now it's no problem since there's just one server choice :P

If you get some people together to build up a good prize for mari i'll set it all up.
If you're going to be the mari representative of the lottery you're also going to have to plan the dates for start and end.

Sure, no prob Osayidan. I'll ask around for more donations tell you when I think I got enough of them. I can't be the representative however, but I will ask if anyone is interested in being the man/woman since I'm a bit busy lately with school. Then when Mari opens up, can you also delete my alt char (IGN: Aire) on there so I get to register my main one in?

Oooh cool ^^
I could use the 50k ;D

I'm going to make multi server lottery easier O:
Instead of each server arranging their own times it will be more simple for all of them to start and end at the same time, this way everyone knows what's going on and no confusion.

So that means once a lotto session is started, if any of the other servers had no sponsor they won't have a lotto for that time, and have to wait until the next one.

So for this open beta it wil be ruairi only, at the next one mari and tarlach, if they have sponsors/representative can be added into the available server list. Then a name for each server available will be chosen.

Now heres a question... would you consider it fair or unfair for someone to be able to participate in the draw with one character for each server?

Nickel

I think unfair higher chance they will win for one of their own characters.
But thats just my opion

**osayidan**

There's now about 40 people who put their names into the draw. So far doing better than i expected for the first time O:

After this draw (date not decided yet) i'll fix everything up and then it will be ready to run on a regular basis.
