Purpose
Ok Tony, I see your point. So now more questions arise.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.
What is the purpose of the raffle? Promote PT, make a profit, or just give a car away?
Like I said odds don't matter to the raffle just the ones buying the tickets. The purpose will dictate the odds. If you wish to make money you will sell more tickets than necessary = lower odds. If you wish to promote PT you will sell cheaper tickets = lower odds. If you just want to have a raffle for the sake of having a raffle you will sell higher priced tickets = better odds. The odds will take care of themselves, when will this thing start?
