well like say every monday night do the drawing until a taken number gets drawn that way it elimnates untaken numbers and it lights a spark under some guys to say oh chit i should get a number then if somebody wins raffle over

Problem with this, is it GUARANTEES that Slow will be out at least half of the money of the prizes. It is in no way fair to him to give out $2000 in prizes, for $1000 in tix sold.

We should just buy the rest of the tickets. I am just waiting until there are fewer left like I said earlier, and then I will buy a couple.

Unfortunately, a lot of people are waiting to buy, that is why it is taking so long to sell off.

I know what you mean. I just can't have that kind of money (even only $20 or $40) tied up right now. I may need it for something sooner down here at school before the drawing date. Once the drawing date is close (I.E. most of the numbers sold) then I will know that I have the money available.

Only other option that MIGHT work, is to cut the prize package in half, making the total prize worth $1000, then have everyone who has already paid for numbers pick another set (If they paid for 2, pick 2 more, paid for 3, pick 3 more, etc.) The winner would then get to pick $1000 worth of Prizes.

This Is The One You've Been Waiting For. - FreeRideFrosty - 02-19-2007
I say we leave it. I get paid tuesday. I need to order a bike part or two, and a couple more things for my RC. If I get everything and have money left over I will buy mine I guess......

Also..... Can I post this on the TruggyRacers forum??
This Is The One You've Been Waiting For. - Tex - 02-19-2007
post it on whatever forums, let's get these sold.
What I do on other forums is link this thread so they can see all the details and numbers list here without having to spell everything out for them over there.
I am having trouble coming up with the $40 I need for 2 more numbers. Between finishing the Losi and bills I have $0 left. It sucks....

I posted it on the TruggyRacers forum. I imagine you will get at least a couple wanting to enter a raffle for one of the best setups on the market right now.

Moderating seems to be a bit strict there but it is ok. Had some problems getting it posted but I just told people to PM me. The whole post with info was removed.

The moderator there considered it gambling and since gambling is illegal in ohio where their board is hosted he pulled all of the info on the thread I posted off.

Now damnit guys stop saying it blows if there are people from that forum interested in entering the raffle or joining here. You don't need to join there but don't bash it like that..... it's not the Traxxas forums. HAha

You do have to be careful that the prizes are substantially different in value than the total of the tickets sold, otherwise they can consider it an illegal lottery. That's what put so many "fashion shows" out of business at the lunch spots we used to frequent.
Joe can prolly file for "Not For Profit" status on these deals, though.
