i'm thinking of a "lottery" type auction thing for some of the parts i've got. for example: if i want to lottery off a, say for purely example, JR filter, would you get into the lottery and pay, say...$5? i'll limit the number of lottery participants to 10 people so you have a 1 in 10 chance of winning it?

would you do it?

 

Its a good idea I think. I'm currently holding a raffle on another site to help support the site.

Is it working? Well, its not a high trafficed site, but I'm sure it will pay off. But you need to require an amount of tickets being sold and a way to shuffle or randomize the winner.

If you use the tick as a seed. However, it is not a "true" random number.....

#include <stdlib.h>
#include <time.h>

void main(void)
{
int n;
randomize();
n = random(20) + 1;
while (n--> 0)
printf("%d", random(10));
printf("n");
}

Are there legal issues?

If not, it sounds pretty good.
