The very first Raffle Roulette came to a close last night, with at least ~2,135,000 tickets sold.
Each ticket was sold for 500t, so the total amount of treasure dumped into Roundsey comes to *drumroll*
1,067,500,000t
One Billion, Sixty-seven Million, Five Hundred Thousand treasure.
Not a typo, collectively the users of FR threw more than a billion treasure down the drain on the incredibly slim hope of something shiny bubbling up to the surface.
To stand a 1% chance of winning any prize in the raffle, a potential would have had to purchase a minimum of 21,350 tickets at a cost of 10,675,000T
So let’s see what we could have bought instead.
The current user-created gem to treasure trading ratio is holding steady at 1:850.
The equivalent is 1,255,882G.
With the most economical gem packs costing $100 f0r 11,500g. This amount is equivalent to 109 such gem packs, at a total Real World cost of $10,900 USD.
Just think about that for a moment. The raffle brought in the equivalent of what 1/3 of the total Kickstarter backers contributed ($38,557) back in 2013.
So, what could we have bought with all those gems? Well….
(49kg) x 25
(150kg) Most recent purchase price reported by @/Whuffie x 8
(120kg) from this auction last year x 10
(450kg) x 2 ( but nearly three at 2.79), the first of those scrolls was purchasable late afternoon on the raffle’s first day.
But now, let’s look at the actual prizes.
1 Cyan/Cyan/Cyan G1 dragon (price ~?~)
x 10 = 15,000
x 5 LAH 2300 = 11,500
x 10 LAH 7 = 70g
Prize Pool Total (discounting dragon)
= 26,570G
To purchase the raffle’s non-dragon prizes is the equivalent of 22,584,500T
Personal note: I deeply wonder if the userbase has 1 billion T to throw into this thing every week and how sustainable/worthwhile the userbase will find Rounsdey after this.
155,060 = 77,530,000T
Nevermind....
