lol, Nonono, I didn't spend that long calculating it (though I DO love math and numbers)

I calculated it about 7.5 hours before the raffle was drawn. It took me about 30 minutes or so, and there's plenty of room for error. :)

Thank you for the kind words though ^^

3. If your idea of having fun is ruining somebody else's fun, find a different way to have fun.

Wait so the winners were chosen at random ? meaning that anyone could've won if at least the 50 tickets were acquired during the raffle? SO THEN WE WEREN'T CHOSEN BASED ON TOP25 AND TICKET SCORE? Can I get a reply on this? I really wanna know if I worked my buttocks off for 13 days and I won by chance even though I hit top 6 in probably the last hour or so xD
I'm european ... timezones are a pain so I didn't really bother xD

It is like asking to know the alchemy secret to transform lead into gold but I will share some wisdom about factors clearly deciding the winners :
1) Worshippers of Ctuhluh gets a strong bonus.
2) Some Alien invaders trying to conquer the world trough this website rigged the raffle regularly.
3) It depends a lot of your astrological sign, Chinese sign and current conjunction of the stars.

PS : or maybe you just need 50 tickets and it is a roll dice with a small bonus for higher tickets making it something like 1.4% chance for 50 tickets and 1.6% chance for 150 tickets.

@ PsiGuard, can you confirm that anybody with at least 50 tickets have a chance of winning, regardless of if they're in the top 25 or not?

I may have misunderstood the rules.

Actually to MY knowledge, here's what I gathered
1) You need a minimum of 50 Tickets to be a PART of the raffle.
2) Every ticket you gain after that increases your chances of winning. (Probably by a small percentage)
3) Winners are drawn COMPLETELY random regardless of whether you have 500 tickets or 50, It's just that a person with 50 tickets has a significantly lower chance of winning. (but it still is possible.)

This is correct. Being in the top 25 ticket earners does not guarantee you a prize (otherwise Vapora would have won every single month).
Thanks to Jovy for the sig!
