CONTEST RULES:

1. TICKETS
One Number Equals One Ticket. One Ticket Costs TWO Globs Of Ectoplasm. Due To The Amount Of Members In This Guild, And The Desire To Get A Large Variety Of People Involved In The Contest(s), The Max Amount Of Tickets One Person Can Purchase Per Contest Is FOUR.

2. POST-PICKS
Each Person Is Allowed To Choose Their Respective Numbers Personally (Availability Pending).

To Select Your Number(s), You MUST Make A Post-Pick. A "Post-Pick" Is Simply A Post Reply (To The Corresponding Contest Thread) With Your In-Game Name And Which Numbers You Choose. Number 'Dibs' Made By Ventrilo, In-Game Chat, Another Forum Thread, Or In Any Other Form ARE NOT Valid. We Need Visual Proof You Called Your Numbers, And In The Proper Place. The Stakes Are Too High Here.

Intentions Of Number Exchanges (Availability Pending) Or Ticket Refunds Must Also Be Posted, For Archival Purposes.

3. PAYMENT
Arrangements For Payment Must Closely Precede Or Closely Follow Your Post-Pick(s). In Order To Make The Post-Pick And Pay Buy-In Process As Smooth As Possible For All Involved, Post-Picks Should Be Made When You Have The Attention Of An [ECTOs] Contest Official (ie. In Chat Or On Ventrilo).

4. CONTEST DRAWING(S)
Drawings Are Done Via An In-Game /roll 100 Command. There Will Be Witnesses And Screenshot Evidence. Drawings Will Continue Until There Are 2 Matches Of The /roll 100 Command With Numbers That Contestants Have Chosen. The First Number That Matches Is The First Place Winner And The Second Is Second Place.

After The First /roll 100 Command Is Completed - Whether It's A Match To Any Contestant's Number Or Not - All Buy-Ins Are BINDING And FINAL. After That Point, No More Tickets Will Be Sold And No Ticket Refunds/Number Exchanges Will Be Allowed.

To: CONTEST OFFICIALS -- UPDATE SYSTEM

In an effort to keep things as organized as possible, I put in a little UPDATE system that makes it immediately apparent what updates still need to be made. This is in the form of a CAPS notifier at the bottom of everyone's post, with the status updates of the big three steps indicated (Paid In Full, Numbers Added To Main Post List, Payment Added To Main Post Jackpot Total).


Here's an example of what it looks like (although you can see it in everyone's posts up to this point):

Quote:

UPDATE: (BY CONTEST OFFICIAL) PAID IN FULL = Yes NUMBERS ADDED TO MAIN POST LIST = Yes PAYMENT ADDED TO MAIN POST JACKPOT TOTAL = Yes

Here's the code you can copy/paste to use it:

Code:

[color=yellow]UPDATE: (BY CONTEST OFFICIAL)[/color] PAID IN FULL = Yes NUMBERS ADDED TO MAIN POST LIST = Yes PAYMENT ADDED TO MAIN POST JACKPOT TOTAL = Yes

Simply update this with the relevant information to make sure everyone is always on the same page. Any additional notes can be written underneath (if necessary).

Courtesy of donations by Del and Chris, the [ECTOs] EOS MM ECTO Buy-In Jackpot is ALREADY up to a hefty 82e. That is an 82e Jackpot BEFORE even 1 number has been bought! Thanks guys!


To Everyone:

This is a special contest to thank everyone for the summer spent with all of us at [ECTOs]. This Jackpot is going to be freaking HUGE. I hope to see the entire number list bought into by drawing time. If you lack the funds to afford even 2e for 1 number, let someone in the guild know and we'll set up some sort of farming run to get you that amount in short order.

Thanks in advance and GOOD LUCK!

Reave donates 3e to the jackpot, bringing the total to 300e. Thanks, Reave!


All of the numbers have been sold, and thus, our [ECTOs] End Of Summer Mega Mackdaddy ECTO Buy-In Jackpot is coming to a close early. Our drawing will be held on WEDNESDAY NIGHT, August 26th, 2009 instead of the originally-announced date of SUNDAY NIGHT, August 30th, 2009.

Thanks for the great support, and good luck to all who entered. Stay tuned for the /roll 100 drawing and final results!

THE MEGA MACKDADDY JACKPOT DRAWING IS OVER. RESULTS ARE IN!
(aka, Steve Takes The Cake)






JACKPOT TOTAL AT DRAWING TIME: 300e

/ROLL 100 DRAWING SEQUENCE:
1. 53 -- Match: Dogdrop Lollipop/Eaves Pandora (1st Prize: 195e)
2. 29 -- Match: Tim/Sadistic Balistics (2nd Prize: 105e)


Somehow, the hands of fate gave me first prize and that 195e Mega Mackdaddy Jackpot. w00t to me. (Looks like I can finish off that Ritualist FOW armor set now.) Tim/Sadistic Balistics came in 2nd, netting an awesome 105e prize.

To everyone else, thanks for playing. Your contributions, especially in a high-stakes contest such as this one, are very appreciated and help keep activities such as contests viable here in [ECTOs]. This particular contest was held to thank everyone for spending the summer with us here at [ECTOs]. We hope you had fun here this summer, and if we all work together, the coming months can be just as good.

There will probably be a couple of weeks break before we have another Jackpot contest. Give everyone time to build up some extra cash so we can have another good turnout like we did for this one. When the contests resume, we'll be going back to the standard "1e per number" rate. Plans for another Mega Mackdaddy Jackpot in the not-too-distant future are already being made. In the meanwhile, we'll focus our efforts on getting the guild back on track with some in-game runs and what-not. We've been kind of slacking in that department as of late.

Congratulations you two douche bags!!!!

Darren
