I'm expecting a very generous loan (see my sig) and upon receiving it will start a rupie lottery. You pay 50 rupies and choose 5 numbers (from 1 to 50). I will then use the RAN button on my scientific calculator to get five numbers. The prizes are as follows.

No numbers: A 50% discount on your next ticket.
1 Number: 20 rupies
2 Numbers: 40 rupies
3 Numbers: 80 rupies
4 Numbers: 200 rupies
5 Numbers: Three quaters of takings (or 500 rupies, whichever is bigger). Watch this thread for when it's gonna begin. See ya.

I'm not against it - just warning you. Good luck to you - this one seems less complicated.

Do you do loans? Even if you don't just read this.

If you loan me 500 I will pay it back and you can have a 50% share of the company.

Look at the rupie loan co.

They seem fair

edit: oh, I see you already did

InsertNameHere · 02-05-2004, 10:46 AM

but I need more. If i get 500 from both AngryPaul and the Loan Co. then this could become a business.

Tusks has bought a ticket. You should too. By the Way you can buy more than 1 ticket. The 3rd one is free!!!

1) The numbers go up to 50
2) I'd guess he's planning 17 entries, as 500 rupies would be 3/4 or something like that

Right, in my calculator i have put in 1-50. I will press RAN 5 times and write down the numbers. They will then be posted in this thread.

The first draw is when at least 3 people have bought a ticket. So come on and buy one. When i have sold three tickets I will announce the date.
