      Actually im looking at it from a totaly different perspective. I'd rather be in the raffle with the fewest number of possible competitors. If the tickets in a 1000 dollar raffle are 100 bucks, I have a in 10 chance of winning if I bought just 1 ticket. Assuming others dont spend more (and they might,) there are only 9 more players in the game with me. Now break that same raffle into 50 dollar tickets and now there's 19 people (assuming they all bought one), or any other broad combo now because people will start buying multiple tickets.

      My point is, that by raising the price of the tickets you are decreasing the number of competitors in the raffle. cheaper tickets=more people playing=worse odds for me.



      Or I'm just retarded.
      /did real bad in math.
      Your math works but just think about it this way...if you buy one 100 dollar ticker...you have whatever odds it is. 1-100. So if it were 50 dollar tickets and you buy 2, you have the same odds. Same odds for same amount of money, but more people can get involved when they buy just the single $50.

      I am a college kid, I dont want to spend 100$, thats why I am saying 50$...we all got our reasons...I am not trying to pick on yours, its what most of us are thinking anyway!
