I am spending some spare change on a lotto, crazy 8's. Has anyone else played or won? Probably a long shot but what the heck.
-
Yep, I've won on a fair amount of Silk Road lotteries. It's a fun way to spend your change. :)
-
Well I lost. You win some you lose some I suppose.
-
i might have a look at them :D
-
I imagine people must win once in a while.
I actually haven't looked into that. How much are they and what can you win.
-
Look under the lotto section on Sr. I think they change all the time. I played the crazy 8's one.

Lotto games are a waste of bitcoin.
-

-
Nope

No I have not. Yet.

I have a couple on there on my Vendor's account and they're both legit.
One of them is a lotto which uses a system I designed myself that is verifiable by the players when it's finished but it needs all 255 places to be taken so it's gonna be a long wait!
The other is a random one based on transaction IDs but I looked at the odds for some of these (I'm a computer scientist and work a lot with stats) and to be honest, the odds people put on their lotto games are a little exaggerated.
STILL we all get that spare change thats useless really, may as well have a go. (Unless you just let that odd bit add up to a lot! lol)

imma try these

As someone with seemingly horrible luck, this seems like such a better option.

I think you'd all be better off leaving the lottos alone. It is gambling with ridiculous odds and when I saw it as a vendor I thought why the hell not. I actually feel a little bad having lottos on there.
That's why I made my prizes so high so that at least winners got something awesome.
